Oh great, another bank decides crypto is the new black 🤦♂️. PNC Bank—yes, *that* PNC, the one that still mails me paper statements—has partnered with Coinbase to “expand crypto services.” Institutional clients, you ask? Oh, you know, just your average janitor investing their 401(k) in Dogecoin via a lunchroom seminar 🎉.

In a shocking twist 🤯, a press release dropped like a bad habit. PNC will now offer “digital asset services” while Coinbase gets… banking? Sounds like a marriage made in bureaucratic heaven. CaaS? No, not “Caribbean as a Service”—Crypto-as-a-Service! 📚💥 A masterpiece of corporate jargon.

Says PNC’s CEO William S. Demchak, probably while fumbling with his Venmo app:

“Partnering with Coinbase accelerates our ability to bring *innovative* crypto solutions to clients. Also, our ATMs now double as NFT kiosks. You’re welcome.” 🤝

Coinbase’s Brett Tejpaul chimed in:

“PNC’s *best-in-class products* deserve our *uncompromising security*. Translation: We’ve hired two guys named Chad to guard the vault. One knows blockchain. The other has a taser.” 🤞🔒

Last month, Coinbase also teamed up with JPMorgan to launch a token on Base. Because why not? Crypto’s the hot new trend, like fidget spinners or blockchain-themed wedding cakes 🎂.
