#USStablecoinBill
The "US Stablecoin Bill" (in Spanish, "Ley de Stablecoins de EE.UU.") is a proposed U.S. legislation aimed at regulating stablecoins—cryptocurrencies pegged to the dollar, such as USDT (Tether), USDC (Circle), and others.
Key Objectives of the Bill
Define Stablecoin Requirements:
Mandate 100% reserve backing (cash, Treasury bonds, etc.).
Prevent unbacked stablecoin issuance (like TerraUSD before its collapse).
Restrict Who Can Issue Stablecoins:
Only licensed banks or approved financial institutions.
Ban unregulated crypto companies from issuing them.
Protect Consumers:
Ensure transparency (public audits of reserves).
Guarantee 1:1 redeemability for U.S. dollars.
Why Does It Matter?
Stablecoins facilitate trillions in crypto transactions.
Clear regulation could boost institutional adoption and prevent crises (e.g., Terra-LUNA collapse).
Potential Market Impact:
Regulated stablecoins (USDC, PYUSD) would gain trust.
Unaudited stablecoins (like USDT) may face scrutiny.
Crypto firms must comply or exit the U.S. market.
Current Status:
The bill is still under debate in the U.S. Congress. If passed, it could reshape the future of stablecoins and crypto adoption.
