Big regulatory shift just dropped. The US Office of the Comptroller of the Currency cleared banks to act as middlemen in crypto deals. The green light specifically covers "riskless principal" setups where banks can facilitate trades involving digital assets without holding inventory risk. This could reshape how institutional players access crypto markets—traditional finance infrastructure meeting blockchain rails. Compliance framework expanding, liquidity pathways widening.

Wow, now traditional finance is really about to step in. Banks acting as intermediaries without bearing the risk? Who wouldn't want to do this business?

Wait a minute, is this really happening? Banks directly act as intermediaries for crypto trading, and it's still risk-free... Institutional investors, get ready to take off!

Banks acting as intermediaries... need to analyze the loopholes in the "risk-free principal" narrative. It sounds good, but in reality, who bears the counterparty risk? Can the logic of smart contracts be directly applied to traditional financial structures? I really don't believe so.

Wow, traditional finance is really stepping in now. Banks will make guaranteed profits as middlemen, and the institutions must be laughing their heads off.

Now traditional finance is really about to enter the market. After waiting so long, the moment has finally arrived. Banks act as intermediaries, and liquidity is exploding... It feels like an opportunity has come. --- Another day of being taught by the market, but this time it's different. Regulatory approval is a signal! --- Wait, has the risk truly been transferred? Or have banks found a new way to harvest retail investors [laughing]? --- The day institutions enter the market is the day our retail investors' dreams shatter, but it is also the beginning of rebirth. --- The sign of the bottom zone has appeared. Believe that the dawn will eventually arrive! --- The integration of traditional finance and on-chain... it feels like the next bull market is coming, but I’m not mentally prepared yet. --- Expanding the compliance framework equals a rise? Brother, you are too naive. We still need to see when institutions will truly start buying in. --- Once again, regulatory good news. If you don’t buy the dip this time, you’ll regret it later!

Wait, are banks really entering the scene? The boundary between traditional finance and blockchain is becoming increasingly blurred.
