The post Exclusive Interview: Why Tangem Believes Self-Custody Is Entering Its ‘Active’ Era appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. As crypto expands beyond trading into payments, stablecoins, tokenized assets and AI-powered applications, wallets are rapidly evolving. Tangem believes the next generation of users won’t simply store crypto, they’ll actively use it every day. CryptoDaily UK sat down with Tangem Co-founder, CTO and Head of Product, Andrey Lazutkin to discuss why self-custody is entering a new phase, what’s holding mainstream adoption back, and why wallets are becoming the operating system for on-chain finance. “Five years from now, people won’t think about self-custody as a technical feature.

The post India’s Central Bank Renews Push to Keep Crypto Out of the Financial System appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI), the country’s central bank, has reiterated its support for a cryptocurrency policy that favors a prohibition-oriented approach. The RBI wants banks and financial institutions barred from any exposure to crypto assets and privately issued stablecoins.   Why India’s Central Bank Leans Toward Crypto Prohibition The RBI has warned about crypto risks repeatedly and now argues for policies “leaning towards prohibition,” according to documents reviewed this week by Reuters.

The stance revives a fight the RBI lost in 2018, when a court struck down policies that had effectively banned crypto dealings. Since then, digital assets have existed in a grey zone. Indian banks are currently allowed to engage with cryptocu
