Taiwan Unveils Draft Law to Bring Crypto Sector Under FSC Licensing Regime
Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) has launched a public consultation on a draft Virtual Asset Service Act, setting out a broad regulatory framework for the crypto industry. The proposal would regulate core virtual-asset activities, including exchange services, transfers, custody, lending and distribution. It excludes NFTs, securities and fiat currencies from the definition of virtual assets. Under the draft, virtual asset service providers (VASPs) would be required to obtain an FSC licence before starting operations. The draft was released on 25 March 2025, with public comments open through 24 May 2025.

UPDATE: US CLARITY Act crypto bill bogs down in Congress amid "four-way deadlock"
The CLARITY Act, a proposal aimed at bringing clearer rules to US crypto markets, has stalled in Congress after four rival blocs each asserted effective veto power over the bill's final language, CryptoSlate reported. Supporters in the Senate and across the industry are seeking a federal framework that would give crypto firms a regulated path forward. Bank-aligned opponents are pushing to shield deposit economics from potential disruption tied to stablecoin yield. The SEC and CFTC are moving on separate tracks, signing a new memorandum of understanding and issuing updated crypto guidance. Critics focused on the bill's structure say it would weaken core investor protections. With each camp holding enough leverage, momentum has slowed and the legislation could be delayed or blocked entirely.

Community Banks Blast OCC Over Conditional Approval of Coinbase National Trust Charter
The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) has filed a formal objection to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's (OCC) conditional approval of Coinbase's application for a national trust bank charter. In its submission, the ICBA said the application raises major concerns around risk management, profitability and resolution planning. The group also argued the OCC lacks clear legal authority to broaden trust powers for crypto companies without subjecting them to the full set of banking rules. Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund also opposed the decision, saying it represents a break from long-established banking law. Opponents warned the approval could set a precedent that allows crypto firms to access bank-like benefits without bank-level oversight.

Fed's Daly Flags Labor Market Fragility as Geopolitical Risks Rise
March payrolls rose by 178,000, a rebound from February's sharp slowdown, while the unemployment rate eased to 4.3%, according to CNBC's "Fed Whisperer" Nick Timiraos. Beneath the headline gain, the picture looks softer: year-over-year wage growth for typical workers cooled to its weakest pace since the post-pandemic recovery began five years ago. Smoothing the volatile February and March readings points to a much slower underlying trend, with average monthly job growth of just 22,500. That pace would have been a clear warning sign two years ago; now, it may still be viewed as tolerable—a shift Fed officials have struggled to explain. San Francisco Fed President Mary Daly wrote Friday that "it is not easy to convince the public that an economy with zero job growth can still be consistent with full employment." She warned the setup is especially vulnerable to fresh supply shocks. If the Iran conflict drags on and higher fuel costs or commodity shortages squeeze businesses and households, the labor market may have little cushion to absorb the hit. Inflation worries could also erode confidence in rate cuts, further narrowing the Fed's room to maneuver.

U.S. Community Banks Push Back on OCC's Conditional Approval of Coinbase Trust Charter
U.S. community banks are mounting a challenge to Coinbase's newly approved national trust bank charter, warning the decision could hand crypto firms banking-style privileges without the full set of safeguards imposed on traditional institutions. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency granted Coinbase conditional approval for a national trust bank charter on Thursday. Banking groups say the move raises consumer-protection and systemic-risk questions, arguing that oversight standards and risk-management expectations should not be diluted as crypto companies seek access to bank-like benefits. The Independent Community Bankers of America said Coinbase's application fails to meet key regulatory requirements, pointing to shortcomings in risk controls, profitability and resolution planning. The group also contended the OCC lacks authority to extend trust powers connected to crypto activity without tighter supervision. ICBA said nonbank firms are increasingly pursuing banking advantages while avoiding comparable compliance burdens, potentially exposing customers to greater risk. Coinbase countered that it is not aiming to operate as a traditional bank. The company said the charter is intended to support its custody business, not lending or deposit-taking, and would place its activities under federal oversight. Criticism has extended beyond community banks. The National Community Reinvestment Coalition questioned whether the approval serves the public interest, with policy director Tara Flynn saying Coinbase does not satisfy the requirements for a national trust bank charter. Americans for Financial Reform Education Fund also cited concerns tied to crypto-market volatility, fraud and money-laundering risks, arguing the decision could weaken existing financial safeguards. Coinbase said it would not engage in fractional-reserve lending and framed the charter as part of bringing crypto further into the regulated financial system. The dispute is unfolding as lawmakers debate the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, with stablecoin yield provisions still a major sticking point. Banking groups warn that yield-bearing stablecoins could draw deposits away from traditional banks. Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan has previously said such products could siphon trillions from the banking system. Coinbase executives have signaled progress in legislative discussions, though core issues remain unresolved. The Senate Banking Committee has delayed the bill's markup, leaving the broader U.S. digital-asset regulatory framework unsettled.

JPX Weighs Excluding Crypto-Heavy Companies From TOPIX, Putting Metaplanet's Expected Inclusion at Risk
Japan Exchange Group (JPX) is considering new rules that would bar companies holding more than 50% of their assets in cryptocurrencies from the Tokyo Stock Price Index (TOPIX), a move that could hit Metaplanet and other so-called digital asset treasury (DAT) firms. Nikkei reported that the draft guidelines would prevent newly established crypto treasuries meeting that threshold from entering TOPIX. Companies already included in TOPIX could also be removed if the proposal is adopted. JPX has reportedly asked market participants for feedback. The change could complicate Metaplanet's expected addition to TOPIX following the October 2026 index reconstitution. Metaplanet was upgraded from small-cap to mid-cap in October 2025, which led to its inclusion in the FTSE Japan Index and the FTSE AllWorld Index, increasing institutional visibility for its Tokyo Stock Exchange-listed shares (3350). A TOPIX exclusion, though, could prompt passive outflows from index-linked funds and domestic investors that benchmark to TOPIX. JPX's tougher posture toward crypto-linked volatility has been building. In November, the group told Bloomberg it was evaluating tighter guidelines to protect investors amid sharp price swings. At the time, Metaplanet shares had dropped 75% after rising more than 400% earlier in 2025. A JPX spokesperson said: "We're monitoring companies that raise concerns from a risk and governance perspective, with a view to protecting shareholders and investors." JPX has also floated stricter merger rules and enhanced audits aimed at curbing extreme volatility. Market participants are watching whether Metaplanet could see a similar impact to Strategy's MSTR after MSCI raised comparable ideas. Those discussions contributed to an MSTR selloff in late 2025 and early 2026, amid estimates that exclusion could drive $3B–$9B in passive outflows if other index providers followed. By early January, when MSCI dropped the plan, MSTR had fallen 60% from $365 to $147. Investors expect Metaplanet—described as the world's third-largest BTC treasury firm—to lobby against the JPX proposal, though it remains unclear whether it can sway the exchange group. Metaplanet shares (3350) closed on April 3 at $1.87, down 86% from the 2025 peak of $13.3. Final takeaway: JPX is weighing a ban on TOPIX inclusion for listed companies with outsized crypto exposure, a step that could block Metaplanet's expected October 2026 inclusion and add to downside pressure via index-related selling.

FDIC Sets April 7 Vote to Finalize Bank Stablecoin Rulemaking Under GENIUS Act
The Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. has called an April 7 board meeting, giving less than a week's notice, to advance rulemaking that will govern how U.S. banks can issue stablecoins under the GENIUS Act. According to the agenda, the FDIC board will consider a proposed rule focused on GENIUS Act requirements for FDIC-supervised "permitted payment stablecoin issuers," a structure that would allow traditional banks to enter the stablecoin business through subsidiaries. The meeting will also cover anti-money laundering standards and a final rule addressing regulators' use of "reputation risk." Signed into law by President Trump on July 18, 2025, the GENIUS Act created the first federal stablecoin framework in U.S. history. Implementation now hinges on detailed regulations. The FDIC, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Treasury Department are working to finalize rules by July 18, 2026, one year after enactment. The statute takes effect 120 days after those rules are finalized, with Jan. 18, 2027 set as the outside deadline. Treasury has already issued an initial package of proposed rules and opened a 60-day public comment window. The OCC has submitted its own proposals, and the FDIC is now moving to formalize its approach. Federal Reserve Governor Michael Barr has cautioned that outcomes will depend heavily on implementation, pointing to reserve requirements, risks of regulatory arbitrage, capital standards and consumer protections as key pressure points. In parallel, lawmakers are pushing the CLARITY Act, a broader crypto market-structure bill. A Senate Banking Committee markup is expected in the second half of April, after the Easter recess ends April 13. Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal said this week that a stablecoin yield deal was "very close," suggesting talks may be further along than the public schedule indicates. Sen. Bernie Moreno has warned that if the CLARITY Act does not reach the Senate floor by May, digital-asset legislation could stall for years. The FDIC's April 7 meeting marks the next regulatory step in that broader policy timeline.

ICBA Slams OCC's Conditional Approval of Coinbase National Trust Charter
The Independent Community Bankers of America (ICBA) is pushing back against the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency's (OCC) conditional approval of a national trust bank charter for Coinbase, arguing the move could expose U.S. consumers to greater risk. In a statement released this week, the trade group representing thousands of community-focused financial institutions said Coinbase's application falls short of legal and regulatory requirements. ICBA cited concerns spanning risk management, profitability, and what it described as oversight gaps for crypto firms. "Today's conditional approval of Coinbase's trust charter application is a grave mistake that will only serve to put US consumers at risk," ICBA President and CEO Rebeca Romero Rainey said. ICBA has previously urged the OCC to reject Coinbase's bid to form a national trust bank. Last November, the group called on the agency to deny the application or, at minimum, require additional disclosure and broader public review. The OCC nevertheless granted conditional authorization. Coinbase has emphasized the charter would not turn it into a full-service commercial bank. "Coinbase is not becoming a commercial bank. We will not be taking retail deposits. We will not be engaging in fractional reserve banking," Greg Tusar said. The dispute follows other OCC decisions involving crypto-related applicants. After the agency approved applications from firms such as Ripple and Circle, ICBA joined other major banking trade groups, including the American Bankers Association (ABA), in a letter urging the OCC to pause pending national trust bank applications. ICBA argues the OCC is stretching its authority under Interpretive Letter 1176, warning that fintech firms can sidestep comprehensive bank regulation while receiving comparable benefits. The group says the approach could raise consumer protection concerns and introduce systemic risk. The latest clash adds to friction between traditional lenders and digital-asset companies as lawmakers debate the CLARITY Act, including provisions tied to stablecoin yields. Banks have warned those yields could pull funds away from traditional deposits. After early disputes over the bill contributed to the cancellation of a January committee meeting, momentum returned in late March when Senators Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks negotiated compromise language and reached an agreement in principle with the White House. Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal told FOX Business this week that policymakers are "very close" to an agreement on the CLARITY Act. He said the measure could move soon, with a Senate Banking Committee markup possible in the coming weeks, followed by a vote on the Senate floor.
