Crypto Market is under the weight of regulatory scrutiny.
Leading crypto exchange Gemini stated on its official Twitter account that “Gemini’s banking relationship remains intact with JPMorgan.” This statement comes after the rumors claimed earlier on Wednesday which cited an unnamed source, the American multinational financial service company JPMorgan is ending its banking relationship with the cryptocurrency exchange.

The speculation appeared amid uncertainty regarding the future of the banking system’s relationship with the cryptocurrency market in the US.

Further, withdrawals from Gemini’s Earn program, designed to let users earn interest by lending their cryptocurrency to institutional investors, were suspended in November.
