FDIC Seeks Comment on Reporting Forms for Bank-Issued Stablecoin Issuers

The FDIC is inviting public comment on new weekly and quarterly reporting forms that would be required of FDIC-supervised banks permitted to issue payment stablecoins, tied to a proposed rulemaking and a new OMB control number. Compliance officers at banks considering stablecoin issuance should track these reporting obligations closely, as they signal what ongoing supervisory data the FDAC will expect. This is an early opportunity to shape the final reporting burden before rules are finalized.

What to do

Review the proposed reporting forms and instructions and submit a comment letter to the FDIC before the comment deadline, flagging any operational or data-collection burdens your institution would face.

CFTC Updates Whistleblower Award Rules for Greater Transparency

The CFTC is amending its whistleblower program rules to improve efficiency, transparency, and predictability of the claims process, modeled on similar SEC regulations. The amendments also reflect an internal reorganization moving the Whistleblower Office to the Office of General Counsel. Compliance officers at crypto and derivatives firms should be aware that a more streamlined whistleblower process may increase the likelihood of internal misconduct being reported externally to the CFTC.

FDIC Joins Interagency Third-Party Risk Management Guidance Proposal

The FDIC is participating in the same four-agency interagency proposal to update third-party risk management guidance for banking organizations, signaling broad regulatory alignment on vendor oversight expectations. FDIC-supervised institutions, including state non-member banks that frequently partner with fintechs and crypto firms, should treat this proposal as a preview of future examination standards. The agencies intend to rescind and replace existing guidance, making this a significant structural change for compliance programs.

OCC/Fed/FDIC Raise Asset Threshold for 18-Month Exam Cycle to $6 Billion

An interim final rule from the OCC, Federal Reserve, and FDIC raises the total asset threshold that allows certain well-managed, well-capitalized insured depository institutions and U.S. branches of foreign banks to qualify for an extended 18-month on-site examination cycle. Smaller banks and trust companies that fall below the new threshold may see reduced examination frequency, affecting the pace of supervisory feedback on compliance programs. Fintech-partnered banks and crypto-custody trust companies under the threshold should be aware that less frequent exams do not reduce compliance obligations.

SEC Extends Review of VanEck JitoSOL (Solana Staking) ETF Listing

The SEC has designated a longer review period before deciding whether to approve or disapprove Nasdaq's proposal to list and trade shares of the VanEck JitoSOL ETF, a commodity-based trust tied to a Solana liquid staking token. This signals continued regulatory scrutiny of crypto-asset ETF products, particularly those involving staking mechanics. Compliance officers at exchanges and custodians supporting digital asset ETFs should monitor this proceeding as it may set precedent for how staking-based crypto products are classified and regulated.
