Summary from the TLDR Crypto newsletter

Bank of America will allow wealth management advisers to recommend 1-4% crypto allocations starting January, reversing its prior policy that permitted client investment but prohibited adviser recommendations. The announcement came hours after Vanguard reversed its longtime crypto ETF ban, aligning BofA with BlackRock and Morgan Stanley while intensifying pressure on holdouts Wells Fargo, Goldman Sachs, and UBS. CIO Chris Hyzy positioned 1% for conservative risk profiles and 4% for higher volatility tolerance among investors with a strong interest in thematic innovation.
