"I think this is the perfect time, because the crypto market is coming to age," Sawyer told Business Insider.

"Having the opportunity to build a bank is probably once in a career. I've done that," said Sawyer. "To me, it was a natural step.

"Therefore, you've got to go regulation first, security first, and compliance first.
