The interim president of the Federal Deposit Insurance Office, Travis Hill, has been nominated by President Donald Trump to assume the role more permanently, which would raise an official who has leaned strongly against the tendency to debate that he affected cryptographic insidents and their businesses.
Hill, a former employee of the Senate Banking Committee, has tried to rethink the previous resistance of the banking regulator to cryptographic banking and has opposed any connection of the PASTE FIC with industry -dependent customers, such as the digital asset sector, which banks can consider risky.
As with other financial agencies, the Administration has not run to fill the Board vacancies in the FDIC, leaving Hill only among the dedicated directors, although the heads of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency and the Office of Financial Protection of the consumer have automatic points in the Board of five members. Hill must be confirmed by the Senate before he can officially assume the presidency.
The Trump Administration has taken to install some of the key leaders in their financial regulators, including those with the greatest potential authority on cryptographic matters, such as the Commission of Trade of Futures of Basic Products. But even agencies under temporary management have been promoting a pro-Crypto agenda while Trump continues to keep the industry in favor.
The FDIC was in the center of the banking crisis of the industry, and a campaign of the Law of Freedom of Information made by Coinbase revealed a treasure of regulator letters to the banks warning them not to do cryptographic business. After Hill arrived at the agency, he announced more of those communications.
In March, the Hill Fdic reversed a previous policy that required the bankers to obtain the previous government approval before assuming new cryptographic activities.
