On May 19, 2026, Donald Trump signed an executive order requiring four federal regulators to dismantle barriers preventing crypto firms from accessing American bank accounts within 90 days. In the same week, the Federal Reserve instructed its 12 regional banks to pause tier three master account decisions until December 31. On the same day, Elizabeth Warren demanded the OCC freeze crypto charter approvals. From 2022 to 2024, the FDIC, OCC, and Federal Reserve used pause letters, joint statements, and “reputational risk” to restrict crypto firms without formal rulemaking. A December 2025 House Financial Services Committee report documented at least 30 crypto entities and individuals losing banking access, including Coinbase’s FOIA dispute that led to a court ruling and $188,440 in legal fees. Silvergate, a real-time U.S. crypto payment network, lost $8.1 billion in digital asset deposits in one quarter after FTX’s November 2022 collapse, a 68% drop, with crypto deposits comprising about 90% of its deposit base. Silvergate sold securities at an approximately $718 million loss and borrowed $4.3 billion from federal home loan banks to cover withdrawals.
