    Nebraska-Chartered Telcoin Launches America's First Regulated Onchain Bank Account With Fed Access

    Telcoin Digital Asset Bank went live with onchain bank accounts for US residents on June 23, becoming the first regulated institution to connect a bank account directly to an onchain dollar. The product runs on the company's eUSD stablecoin, accessible through Telcoin Wallet, and places Telcoin in a distinct regulatory category from every other crypto company currently pursuing banking-adjacent status in the United States. While Circle and Ripple have both received conditional approval for national trust charters from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency — a route that explicitly excludes cash deposit-taking and checking or savings accounts — Telcoin holds a full bank charter under the Nebraska Banking Act, authorizing it to accept deposits, issue eUSD, and connect to the Federal Reserve payment system nationwide. Telcoin obtained its Digital Asset Depository Institution charter in November 2025, the first company to do so under the Nebraska Financial Innovation Act, legislation Telcoin itself helped develop in 2021. Importantly, Telcoin Network is built and operated by the Telcoin Association, a Swiss Verein entirely separate from Telcoin Inc. and Telcoin Digital Asset Bank, meaning there are no capital constraint issues between the regulated banking entity and the broader network infrastructure. Future releases of Telcoin Wallet will include GENIUS Act-compliant yield on eUSD balances, debit cards, and merchant and institutional accounts, with API integrations planned to expand eUSD adoption across financial and digital asset platforms.

    Telcoin Launches First Regulated On-Chain Bank Accounts in the US

    Telcoin Digital Asset Bank has become the first company in the United States to offer a bank account directly linked to an on-chain dollar. Available now through Telcoin Wallet, US residents can open an individual account natively tied to eUSD Digital Cash, a bank-issued stablecoin that enables faster payments, lower transfer costs, and around-the-clock access to financial services on blockchain rails. The launch builds on Telcoin's Digital Asset Depository Institution charter obtained in November 2025 under the Nebraska Financial Innovation Act, which recognizes Telcoin Digital Asset Bank as a bank under the Nebraska Banking Act and allows it to issue eUSD and accept deposits nationwide. The current release establishes the core infrastructure connecting traditional banking rails directly to eUSD, with compliant yield on balances, debit cards, and merchant and institutional accounts all planned for future releases. The goal is a single regulated account that brings together dollar holdings, payments, and digital asset access under one roof — removing the fragmented integrations and third-party dependencies that have characterized existing crypto-linked banking products. Looking further ahead, the upcoming launch of Telcoin Network is expected to expand eUSD's reach through telecom distribution channels as part of a broader vision for an open and interoperable Internet of Money.

    Parker Spann from Telcoin Interview in Miami at Consensus 2026

    Telcoin holds the first digital asset banking charter in the United States and became the first bank issuer of stablecoins in December. Parker, EVP at Telcoin, joins Solomon on the Consensus 2026 floor to break down what comes next. Nebraska Governor Pillen granted the charter in November, making Telcoin one of only two depository institutions in the US able to service the digital asset industry. Stablecoins moved $40 trillion in volume last year, more quarterly throughput than the entire US ACH system, and Telcoin is now positioned to issue them as a chartered bank. The V5 product brings the full banking experience inside the existing mobile app, with partner wallet, exchange, and fintech integrations coming through the same rails. The Telcoin Network goes live H1 2026 with over two dozen mobile network operators already signed up as the exclusive validator set. The goal is seven billion mobile devices connected to a single unified ledger. This is what happens when a chartered bank plugs the electricity of the financial system into the light bulb of blockchain. In this video: - Telcoin received the first US digital asset banking charter from Nebraska Governor Pillen in November - Telcoin became the first bank issuer of stablecoins in December - Telcoin is one of two depository institutions in the US able to service the digital asset industry - V5 product integrates the full banking experience into the existing Telcoin mobile app - Over two dozen mobile network operators signed up as exclusive validators for the Telcoin Network - Telcoin Network goes live H1 2026 targeting 7 billion connected mobile devices - Stablecoin volume hit $40 trillion last year, exceeding US ACH quarterly throughput - Parker discusses agentic commerce and the institutional replatforming of money onto blockchain rails

    Viettel Money and Telcoin Hold Exploratory Discussions at MWC 2026 on Blockchain-Based Cross-Border Payments

    Viettel Money and Telcoin Hold Exploratory Discussions at MWC 2026 on Blockchain-Based Cross-Border Payments During Mobile World Congress 2026 in Barcelona (March 2–5), representatives from Viettel Money, the digital financial services arm of Vietnam’s Viettel Group, met with Telcoin, a U.S.-based fintech holding a digital asset bank charter from the state of Nebraska. According to Viettel’s official post-event summary, the meeting was led by Võ Anh Tâm, Deputy General Director of Viettel Digital Services. The discussion focused on potential cooperation opportunities in international payments, including the use of blockchain infrastructure and stablecoins to improve speed, cost, and accessibility. Key points from the recap include: - Exchange of views on blockchain-based international payment models - Exploration of stablecoin integration possibilities (Telcoin currently operates eUSD, a 1:1 USD-pegged stablecoin issued by Telcoin Digital Asset Bank and live on Ethereum and Polygon) - Recognition of Viettel’s extensive telecommunications network and customer base across more than 10 countries in Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America as a potential foundation for advanced digital payment solutions Võ Anh Tâm described the conversation as a “natural step forward” in Viettel’s global digital financial services strategy. No agreements, partnerships, pilots, or formalized commitments have been publicly announced by either party. The meeting was exploratory in nature, consistent with high-level industry discussions that commonly occur at MWC. This engagement highlights ongoing interest in regulated blockchain solutions for cross-border payments, particularly in markets with high remittance volumes and significant mobile network reach. Viettel Money serves one of the world’s fastest-growing digital payment markets in Vietnam, while Telcoin has developed blockchain infrastructure tailored for mobile network operators to enable financial services via mobile devices. Further developments, if any, will be communicated through official channels of Viettel Money and Telcoin.

    TEL Listed on Kraken: Telecom Blockchain Standard Gains Access to Global Crypto Markets

    TEL Listed on Kraken, Expanding Access Ahead of Telcoin Network Launch Telcoin’s native token, TEL, has been listed on Kraken, one of the world’s largest and most established cryptocurrency exchanges, marking a notable step forward for the ecosystem as it moves closer to mainnet. Kraken serves over 13 million users across 190+ countries, meaning the listing significantly expands global access to TEL through a regulated trading platform with strong presence across the US, UK, and Europe. Broader Access and Liquidity for TEL With the listing now live, users can buy, sell, and hold TEL directly on Kraken, with trading available against USD and EUR. Deposits and withdrawals are supported via the Polygon network, maintaining compatibility with existing TEL infrastructure. For the Telcoin ecosystem, this move strengthens both liquidity and accessibility, making it easier for new users and institutions to gain exposure. A Convergence of Regulated Platforms The listing also highlights a growing alignment between regulated crypto infrastructure and Telcoin’s broader vision. Kraken has long positioned itself as a compliance-first exchange, holding multiple regulatory approvals and notably becoming the first crypto company to secure a U.S. bank charter. At the same time, Telcoin has been advancing its own regulatory strategy. Its subsidiary, Telcoin Digital Asset Bank, recently received the first Digital Asset Depository Institution charter in the United States, followed by the launch of eUSD, a bank-issued stablecoin. Together, these developments point toward a shared direction: bridging traditional finance and blockchain through compliant, scalable infrastructure. Timing Ahead of Mainnet The Kraken listing arrives at a key moment, as the Telcoin Network prepares for its mainnet launch in 2026. With mobile network operators expected to come online as validators across multiple regions, increasing exchange availability now helps: Improve market liquidity Expand global awareness Position the ecosystem for broader participation at launch Why It Matters While exchange listings are often seen as routine milestones, this one carries added weight given Telcoin’s focus on telecom-driven blockchain infrastructure. By aligning mobile operators around a shared network and token, Telcoin is aiming to connect billions of mobile users to blockchain-based financial services — something that requires both regulatory alignment and accessible market infrastructure. Listings on established exchanges like Kraken play a key role in that transition from development to real-world usage. Source: Official announcement from Telcoin Association
