US banking group ICBA opposes OCC approval of Ripple trust bank
- —ICBA objected on October 27, a day after the OCC granted final approval
- —The bank will manage RLUSD reserves and provide fiduciary crypto custody
- —ICBA cited Ripple's $700,000 FinCEN penalty from 2015
- —ICBA sued the OCC in October over its national trust charter rules
Why it matters: The dispute sets a precedent for whether crypto firms can obtain federal banking charters in the US.
