1. OCC Grants Conditional Approval For Trump-Backed World Liberty National Trust Bank
License approval: The OCC grants World Liberty Financial conditional approval for a national trust bank charter, enabling stablecoin issuance, custody, and on-ramp services for its $4 billion market cap USD1 stablecoin.
🔎 Insider Insight: WLF's approval is politically charged, with Senator Warren citing direct conflicts of interest given Trump's financial ties to a company the OCC would then supervise. The approval follows a consistent OCC pattern of granting crypto trust charters, making it difficult to single out WLF without challenging the entire program.
