#GENIUSAct

The GENIUS Act (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins) is a landmark U.S. Senate bill aimed at regulating the \$250 billion stablecoin market. It mandates that stablecoin issuers maintain reserves in liquid assets like Treasury bills, comply with anti-money laundering protocols, and prioritize investor repayment in bankruptcy scenarios. The bill has garnered bipartisan support, with Senator Mark Warner highlighting its role in protecting consumers and fostering innovation. However, it faces criticism from figures like Senator Elizabeth Warren, who argue it could benefit individuals with vested interests in the crypto industry. Despite political debates, the GENIUS Act represents a significant step toward comprehensive crypto regulation in the U.S. ([warner.senate.gov][1], [Barron's][2], [Business Insider][3])
