Sygnum, a Swiss digital asset bank, predicts that the U.S. regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies will accelerate the issuance of tokenized bonds and the establishment of sovereign bitcoin reserves by 2026. The proposed CLARITY and Bitcoin Acts could provide countries with a legal basis for holding bitcoin, with Brazil, Japan, and Germany likely to be early adopters. Sygnum CEO Mathias Imbach stated that blockchain technology is becoming a standard component of financial operations, with as much as 10% of new bonds potentially tokenized by 2026. Liquidity and cryptocurrency markets are expected to benefit from these developments, as CFT regulations evolve to support institutional participation in digital assets.

According to Cointelegraph, Swiss digital asset banking group Sygnum forecasts that the U.S. crypto regulatory framework in 2026 will drive the establishment of sovereign Bitcoin reserves and accelerate the issuance of tokenized bonds by major financial institutions. In its latest report, Sygnum noted that the CLARITY Act and the Bitcoin Act could provide a legal framework for countries and regions to establish Bitcoin reserves. The report predicts that at least three G20 or equivalent economies will publicly add Bitcoin to their sovereign reserves, with potential early adopters including Brazil, Japan, Germany, Hong Kong, and Poland. Mathias Imbach, CEO of Sygnum Group, stated that traditional financial institutions are gradually adopting blockchain infrastructure as part of their core operations. He expects tokenization to enter the mainstream by 2026, with as much as 10% of new bond issuances by major institutions potentially being tokenized at the initial stage.
