Metal Coin (MTL), the cryptocurrency of the US-based peer-to-peer (P2P) payments platform Metal Pay, saw a big spike in trading on Monday, after the startup announced it had gained a money transmitter license from the US state of Washington.
Metal Pay called the licensing win a “big moment” in a blog post announcing its success. It explained that “the specific regulatory challenges at play in the state of Washington” had made it impossible for the platform to operate there. The platform aims to simplify sending and receiving money, and offers free and instant transactions on Bitcoin, MTL, and XPR.
MTL, which had been trading at around the $2 mark, rose sharply after the news, reaching over $7, and is currently trading at around $6.9.
But the thumbs-up from Washington could also be taken as a positive signal for the startup’s banking aspirations.
In February, Metal Pay filed for a national bank charter with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC).
Anchorage, which last month became the first cryptocurrency firm to secure a federal banking charter, has closed an $80 million Series C round led by Singapore sovereign wealth fund GIC. Crypto investing mainstays a16z and Blockchain Capital, as well as Lux and Indico, also contributed funding. Anchorage, which counts former US Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh and famed hedge fund manager Stanley Druckenmiller as advisors, is a digital asset custody firm, meaning it holds other companies’ cr...
It's not the first crypto startup todo so; Visa-backed digital asset platform Anchorage was granted the first federal charter by the OCC in January, paving the way for the integration of cryptoassets into the mainstream economy.
“There’s never been a higher watermark than a federally chartered bank,” Anchorage cofounder and president Diogo Monica told Decrypt at the time.
Crypto startups Paxos and BitPay have also submitted charter applications.
But Metal Pay plans to go further and has submitted a first-of-its-kind application, which would ensure that its cash deposits were insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC). A decision is expected within three months.
Hello, Washington!
We're thrilled to announce that we've earned a Money Transmitter License for the state of Washington.
People from Seattle to Spokane can now experience the Metal Pay difference!

A successful outcome would take the five-year-old startup beyond its former heyday in September 2018, when MTL was worth over $14. And Metal Pay has picked an impressive-sounding name for its venture: “The First Blockchain Bank and Trust, N.A.”
Ding ding ding—we have a winner! A solo miner bagged a reward of 3.173 BTC ($349,028) by mining Bitcoin block number 903,883 late Thursday night. Winners like this don’t come around often; in fact, one expert says an underdog this small will only win every eight years on average. Thursday night’s lucky winner was identified as using Solo CK, a non-profit service that enables Bitcoin miners to attempt to mine solo blocks. By using Solo CK, the miner paid a 2% fee but avoided the overhead required...
A whale who had held onto a Bitcoin fortune for 14 years on Friday started moving the enormous stash of 80,000 BTC—worth $8.6 billion at today's prices. The coins started moving in batches of 10,000 BTC, or about $1 billion in BTC, early morning New York time on Friday, data from Arkham Intelligence shows. By 11 a.m. Eastern Time, the $8.6 billion in crypto had been shifted to new addresses. Eagle-eyed blockchain observers were quick to point out on X that the movements came from an entity tha...
A malware campaign is leveraging malicious Firefox add-ons that impersonate legitimate crypto wallets in a bid to steal unwary users’ funds, according to a new study.
