AGP Executive Report

Last update: 9 hours ago

Banking Goes Crypto: Germany’s Sparkassen have begun offering Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana and Polygon in their banking app, with more banks expected to join the rollout. Asia Expansion: Bitget plans to acquire licensed Thai exchange GMO-Z.com Cryptonomics, pending regulatory approval, weeks after a $388 million hack affecting its wallets. Stablecoin Safeguards: Mastercard launched a tool that screens stablecoin payments for fraud and sanctions risks before funds move on-chain, aiming to make banks more comfortable handling them. Tokenized Finance: BlackRock is exploring how tokenized money-market fund shares could back traditional Wall Street trades, while Börse Stuttgart won EU approval for a platform to trade and settle tokenized securities. Market Watch: Bitcoin climbed back above $82,000 as risk appetite improved, though rising oil prices and uncertainty around AI stocks continued to weigh on markets.
