U.S. Senate Bill Sparks Record Surge in Stablecoin Market
Published: June 18, 2025 — Reuters
Key Facts:
In response to the passage of a major stablecoin regulation bill by the U.S. Senate, the total stablecoin market cap surged to a record $251.7 billion—a 22% increase year-to-date.
The legislation mandates that stablecoin issuers maintain 1:1 backing with liquid assets such as U.S. dollar reserves or T-bills, and monthly transparency reports on reserve composition.
Supporters say the rules legitimize stablecoins as secure instruments for trading and payments. Critics caution that tighter integration with traditional finance could introduce systemic risks to the broader financial system.
The bill follows the Senate’s earlier approval of the GENIUS Act, signaling accelerating regulation in the stablecoin sector .
Market Impact:
This regulatory clarity is expected to boost investor confidence, enhance liquidity in trading markets, and accelerate mainstream adoption—laying the foundation for renewed momentum in DeFi and payment-related crypto use cases.
