Anchorage Digital has announced the launch of Stablecoin Solutions, a federally regulated service that enables banks to conduct near-instant USD settlements globally via blockchain technology. This move by Anchorage Digital, the first federally chartered crypto bank in the U.S., aims to modernize cross-border settlements while adhering to stringent regulatory standards.
The new offering consolidates minting, redemption, custody, fiat treasury, and settlement under Anchorage Digital Bank, N.A., operating under the oversight of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC). This positions Anchorage to offer a seamless integration of stablecoin technology within traditional banking frameworks, eliminating the complexities of state-by-state licensing.
"Stablecoins are becoming core financial infrastructure," said Nathan McCauley, co-founder and CEO of Anchorage Digital. "Stablecoin Solutions gives banks a federally regulated way to move dollars globally using blockchain rails, without compromising custody, compliance, or operational control. This is about modernizing settlement while preserving the standards the financial system depends on."
