Charles Schwab, Citadel-backed EDX joins list of crypto firms seeking national trust bank charter

Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross

"The entry of EDX, backed by major financial institutions, into the national trust bank charter race signals a critical maturation of crypto market infrastructure. This move facilitates greater institutional capital flow by integrating digital assets into a familiar, regulated framework, potentially reshaping market structure and reducing counterparty risk for large-scale investors. Such regulatory clarity is pivotal for broader institutional adoption and the eventual convergence of traditional and digital finance."
