Telcoin Soars 109% After U.S. Approval to Launch Digital Asset Bank

Published at 2025-11-13 11:15:09

Telcoin (TEL) jumped up to 109% intraday on Nov. 13, 2025, after the token's issuer won regulatory clearance to set up a digital asset bank in the United States. The approval marks a major milestone for the project and prompted a sharp rally as market participants priced in expanded U.S. operations and clearer regulatory standing.

The move could let Telcoin broaden custody, fiat on- and off-ramps, and regulated payments — areas central to its remittance-focused roadmap — and may attract more institutional counterparties. While the approval boosts confidence, details on licensing scope, launch timeline and products remain key watchpoints; investors should still weigh execution risk and broader market volatility as TEL looks to convert regulatory gains into sustained adoption.
