Federal Reserve Asked to Consider Bitcoin in 2026 Stress Tests
Pierre Rochard has requested the Federal Reserve to include Bitcoin as a separate asset in its 2026 stress tests. According to NS3.AI, Rochard believes Bitcoinโs high volatility and growing institutional adoption make it a unique asset.
BTC

BNB

-2.02%
He noted that Bitcoin has an annualized volatility of 73.3%, and current combined crypto metrics do not accurately measure its risk. This request comes amid broader discussions in the United States around Bitcoin policy, regulation, and the establishment of a strategic Bitcoin reserve.
