That assessment must describe how the enterprise will value cryptocurrency, apply haircuts, and adjust for daily price swings.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The directive also requires an analysis of how crypto reserves interact with other borrower assets and liabilities. After board approval, each enterprise must send the proposal to FHFA for sign-off before implementation.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By invoking the authority to issue binding instructions that alter underwriting or capital standards, Pulte accelerated a process that otherwise would have needed rulemaking or legislative action.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The order does not change conforming loan limits or documentation requirements but expands the categories of qualifying reserves.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Broader national crypto policy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pulte<\/span> <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/pulte\/status\/1937948027362181375\">announced the action<\/a><\/strong><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> on his social media account the same day, writing that he acted \u201cin keeping with President <a href=\"https:\/\/cryptoslate.com\/people\/donald-trump\/\">Donald Trump\u2019s<\/a> vision to make the US the crypto capital of the world.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He added:<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong> \u201cToday is a historic day in the cryptocurrency industry.\u201d<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The directive follows months of internal study, according to Pulte\u2019s remarks.
