The Blockchain Association supports Custodia Bank's Supreme Court petition challenging the Federal Reserve's refusal to grant the Wyoming-chartered digital asset bank a master account, questioning the discretion regional Fed banks hold over eligible institutions' access to central bank payment systems.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You face an open path to challenge federal gatekeeping in banking access for digital asset companies. The Supreme Court decision could remove regional Fed discretion, making banking access more assured.
