Banking with Bitcoin & Digital Assets Built In | Bitcoin 2026

Only 10 of America's 4,700 banks currently serve the digital asset industry and that's about to change. At the Bitcoin 2026 Conference, Brian Hirschfield of Actuarial Bitcoin Advisors moderates Fifth Third Bank's Igor Istratov, Galoy's Andrew Begin, and FV Bank CEO Miles Paschini on what banking with Bitcoin actually looks like in 2026. They cover SAB-121 repeal, bitcoin-backed lending, the stablecoin yield battle, the CLARITY Act, and the "soft switching" trend where community banks are quietly losing 10–14% of deposits to Bitcoin exchanges they didn't even know about.
