Stablecoin Bill Expected Within Two Months, Says Trump Adviser
GENIUS Act Passes Senate With Bipartisan Support
Senator Bill Hagerty’s GENIUS Act recently passed the Senate Banking Committee with strong bipartisan support (18-6 vote). This reflects lawmakers’ commitment to providing regulatory clarity for stablecoins. The bill signals significant advancement in shaping cryptocurrency regulation.
The proposed legislation seeks to balance innovation with stability, and aims to ensure the predominance of USD-linked stablecoins in the digital age. If approved, it would establish definitive guidelines for a previously unregulated sector.
Institutional Interest in Stablecoins Surges by 15%
The motion has fueled renewed interest from institutional investors, as noted by Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire. According to Allaire, increased clarity has spurred a 15% rise in USDC supply. The broader market remains cautiously optimistic about how this could shape future digital finance.
Financial markets are gearing up for future changes, driven by anticipated regulatory stability. Political and financial players hope the legislation will solidify the U.S. as a leader in digital currency innovation while fostering responsible market growth.
Bipartisan Consensus Could Set Global Stablecoin Standard
Unlike past efforts, such as the 2021 infrastructure bill debates, this round of legislation appears to employ a more careful and tailored regulatory approach. It is hoped this will provide a global standard for dealing with stablecoin regulation.
Kristin Smith of the Blockchain Association describes the ongoing bipartisan support for the bill as an unprecedented consensus. Experts speculate that if successful, this regulatory framework could significantly impact both U.S. and international crypto policies.
