The report cited a source familiar with the matter but did not provide further details about the consortium’s plans. Deutsche Bank declined to comment, while Standard Chartered did not respond to the request for comment.

This development highlights the persistent institutional interest in crypto assets, and shows that despite regulatory uncertainty, major financial institutions remain interested in the U.S. crypto ecosystem. In recent years, several traditional banks have taken steps to add digital asset services to their portfolios or to develop new partnerships in this space.

It remains unclear how the consortium plans to proceed or in which areas it aims to operate. However, this news can be seen as another indication that the lines between traditional finance and the crypto world are becoming increasingly blurred.
