Anchorage Digital Bank N.A., the only federally chartered crypto bank in the United States, has unveiled support for global USD wire transfers, marking a major milestone in bridging traditional and digital finance.
The move establishes Anchorage as the first crypto-native institution to offer both fiat and crypto services under a single, federally regulated platform.
With this expansion, clients can now hold, send, and receive both U.S. dollars and digital assets directly through Anchorage Digital Bank. “We’re eliminating the operational complexity of managing both cash and crypto,” said Nathan McCauley, CEO of Anchorage Digital. “Our clients can consolidate assets with one federally regulated partner and move funds efficiently across both rails.”
The new functionality is designed to simplify capital management for institutions, startups, and international investors. Users can convert USD into supported digital assets, mint stablecoins such as PYUSD and USDG, and even earn yield on select holdings through Anchorage’s trading and settlement infrastructure.
Anchorage’s long-term goal is to remove the barriers between crypto and fiat, giving institutions a seamless platform for custody, payments, and conversions. Future updates include interest-bearing USD accounts, cementing Anchorage Digital’s position as the premier bridge between traditional banking and the on-chain economy.
