What does it mean when a bank has a crypto treasury?

[johnblockbuster]

A bank crypto treasury is the portion of a bank’s holdings allocated to cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum. Banks may hold crypto for investment purposes, hedging, or to provide crypto-related services to clients. Unlike traditional assets, crypto treasuries are highly volatile and may carry additional regulatory and security considerations.
