Firms that want to provide custodial and financial services around cryptocurrencies can opt to obtain a bank charter, giving them federal or state-level approval to operate as a financial institution capable of managing cryptocurrency assets.
A bank charter provides an additional layer of regulatory oversight, often seen as advantageous for institutional clients who value the security and legitimacy provided by regulated banking institutions.

Alternatively, firms can become a Money Transmitter Business (MTB). This structure, regulated at the state level, allows firms to conduct currency exchanges and transmission services, which includes cryptocurrency transactions.
Becoming an MTB involves navigating a complex landscape of state-by-state licensing, each with distinct requirements, capital reserves, and compliance obligations. While challenging, this approach is essential for firms aiming to operate legally within the cryptocurrency space without the burden of a full banking charter.
