Users of selective U.S. banks will be able to conduct the transaction of Bitcoin through their current accounts, according to crypto custody firm NYDIG.

According to estimates, 300 banks disclosed their plans last year in June will implement this service first with the help of FinTech NYDIG. The majority of regulatory and security issues got resolved in the months after the first announcement, and agreements and integrations between NYDIG and the current technology by banks and suppliers have been developed, according to participants.

According to a consortium of banking communities working towards setting high-tech goals last year, customers could buy and sell bitcoin using mobile banking apps.

According to banks and trade organization executives, clients have shown a strong need for the program.

Executive V.P. of technology, security, and operations at Synovus, Zack Bishop, says about $56 billion asset business, digital assets are becoming increasingly important to banks. Banks increasingly lend primarily on tangible assets such as automobiles, farm equipment, and real estate for commercial use. The banking sector will trend toward digitizing assets and placing them on public blockchains with demonstrable records of ownership and value, Blockchain-based security.

According to industry authorities, trading of bitcoin may produce revenue and help banks stay in the competition and maintain customers.

Not the NYDIG customer is the first to break the mold. Tulsa’s Vast Bank, Oklahoma, partnered with Coinbase in October to allow bitcoin purchases through using accounts of banks, and it now supports a total of 12 coins.

NYDIG is the bank’s first sub-custodian arrangement, notwithstanding the bank’s efforts to develop a network of suppliers. According to the statement, NYDIG topped the list due to its industry experience handling compliance and regulatory standards.
