Not ETFs. Not corporate treasuries. Your local credit union might be your Bitcoin bank.
St. Cloud Financial Credit Union just surpassed 10 bitcoin held for members. 12.6 BTC, plus Ethereum and USDC. 28,000 members using a hybrid self-custody model, members keep their keys, the credit union provides the infrastructure.
CEO Jed Meyer: "What we're seeing is members looking for a way to participate without leaving the institution they already trust."
This is a different Bitcoin adoption story. It's not institutions buying ETFs. It's community banking offering Bitcoin custody to everyday members.
Hybrid self-custody: familiar trusted environment + you control your keys + integrated into everyday banking.
Future plans include bitcoin-enabled payments and lending. The goal: keep members inside the credit union as Bitcoin becomes part of daily financial life.
Bitcoin adoption isn't just Wall Street. It's reaching Main Street.
