Securitize Taps Anchorage Digital Bank for Stablecoin Issuance, Custody

The significance here is less about stablecoins than about where the regulated plumbing sits: moving issuance and redemption inside a federally chartered bank narrows the chain of intermediaries between tokenized assets and their cash leg. That matters most for institutional issuers and holders who have treated counterparty and custody layering as a diligence item rather than a detail. The open question is whether bank-integrated issuance becomes the default structure for tokenization platforms or remains a differentiator for those willing to absorb the compliance overhead.
