Paxos Makes Power Play: Files for OCC National Trust Charter to Tighten Regulatory Grip

Crypto's compliance crusade gets a heavyweight boost—Paxos just lobbed a regulatory grenade into traditional finance's trenches.

The Boring Bank Disruptor

Forget 'move fast and break things.' Paxos is playing the long game—filing for a national trust charter under the OCC to legitimize crypto while Wall Street still treats blockchain like a suspicious dark-web artifact.

Why TradFi Should Sweat

This isn't another DeFi cowboy operation. Securing federal oversight means Paxos can now custody assets with the same boring reliability as your grandpa's savings account—except with 1000% more yield potential (and none of the patronizing teller small-talk).

The Punchline?

While legacy banks spend millions lobbying against crypto, the smart players are beating them at their own game—with better tech, clearer rules, and zero reliance on 'financial advisors' who still think Bitcoin is a type of Pokemon card.
