Banks will need a huge capital to hold bitcoins
The Basel Committee on Banking Supervision has revealed earlier today that banks would face strict requirements if they desire to hold Bitcoin and other cryptocurrency assets. This comes as more traditional banks and financial institutions globally are making moves into the crypto market.According to the committee, banks will need to satisfy huge capital requirements if they are to hold Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. The global banking regulator said it put this in place to ensure that the banks can cover any losses on Bitcoin in full.
The panel proposed that there should be a 1,250% risk weight attached to a bank’s exposure to Bitcoin and other digital currencies. This implies that a bank must hold a dollar in capital for every dollar worth of BTC, based on an 8% minimum capital requirement.
In the report, the Basel Committee, which includes the European Central Bank and the Federal Reserve, said, “The growth of cryptoassets and related services has the potential to raise financial stability concerns and increase risks faced by banks. The capital will be sufficient to absorb a full write-off of the cryptoasset exposures without exposing depositors and other senior creditors of the banks to a loss.”
Stablecoins don’t have a high capital requirement
The committee said the high capital requirement doesn’t apply to digital assets like stablecoins since their values are tied to real-world assets and currencies. They added that the regulation needs to be put in place because the banking sector faces increased risks from cryptocurrencies due to their potential for money laundering, volatile prices and reputational challenges that could result in defaults.The proposal is now open to public comments before it is implemented. The committee said the policies would undergo changes several times as the cryptocurrency market continues to evolve.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?
Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.
Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?
No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.
What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?
Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.
Why is there no trial or refund policy?
We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.
Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?
Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.
How often is content updated?
Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.
