Wendy Owusu says banks are given green light for Bitcoin and crypto custody

Banks have received approval to custody Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, a development observed by finance expert Wendy Owusu as a significant long-term bullish move for the market.
The authorization for banks to hold digital assets marks a crucial endorsement of cryptocurrencies by the financial establishment, suggesting a growing acceptance and integration into traditional finance. Owusu highlighted that this move is likely to initiate a bullish trend in the cryptocurrency markets, commonly referred to as a 'bullrun'.
With the regulatory landscape continuously evolving, market participants are closely watching these developments. As banks begin to offer custody services, it provides an additional layer of security and legitimacy for digital assets, potentially attracting a wider range of investors.
The influence of institutional avenues for cryptocurrency investors suggests a maturing market. This step may encourage more financial institutions to participate in the crypto space, opening doors for enhanced adoption and investment opportunities. As the integration of digital assets continues to progress, banks' custodial services could lead to substantial growth within the sector.
