- Bank of America confirms plans to launch its own stablecoin.
- A rumored JPMorgan partnership has yet to produce visible results.
- Institutional interest in stablecoins is surging amid political support.
Whispers of a partnership between Bank of America, JPMorgan, and other major institutions to launch a stablecoin made rounds last month, though nothing has officially materialized so far. Despite the silence on that front, one thing is becoming clearer—big banks are warming up to crypto, and fast.
Wall Street Inches Closer to Crypto
Over recent months, there’s been a noticeable shift in how traditional financial giants view the crypto space. With President Trump suggesting stablecoins could strengthen the U.S. dollar’s global standing, the race to adopt this tech has intensified. Now, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan has confirmed plans to release a stablecoin, echoing his March remarks where he stated the bank “has no choice” but to dive in.
Still No Word on JPMorgan Tie-Up
Though earlier rumors hinted at a joint stablecoin project with JPMorgan, the plan hasn’t seen daylight—at least not yet.
Whether that partnership is quietly progressing behind the scenes or Bank of America has decided to go it alone remains uncertain. Either way, the ripple effect on the broader crypto landscape could be huge.
