Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell made statements regarding bank refusals to serve crypto companies and backed stablecoin regulation during a policy discussion.

Powell Supports Crypto and Stablecoins

Powell plans to address issues with bank refusals to serve crypto companies. Banks like Custodia and Signature have faced repeated denials of access to the Fed's payment systems. Powell acknowledged that internal rules contributed to this practice and promised to implement changes.

Interest Rates to Hold Steady

With inflation still above the 2% target, Powell noted that the current Fed rate of 4.25% to 4.5% is effective in managing it. He stated that reducing the rate too quickly or significantly could harm the existing anti-inflation policy.

Consumer Protection and Tariff Impact

Senator Elizabeth Warren criticized Powell for the lack of consumer protection following the weakening of the CFPB law by the Trump administration. Powell noted that the level of consumer protection is insufficient. He also acknowledged that tariffs and trade restrictions have significantly impacted the economy, though he noted this is not within the Fed's remit.

Jerome Powell expressed a commitment to continue efforts in regulating banks dealing with cryptocurrency and maintaining steady monetary policy to combat inflation.
