#StablecoinLaw Law Passed by US Congress Brings New Framework for Cryptocurrency

The US House of Representatives has approved the GENIUS Act, a stablecoin bill. It is now awaiting the President's signature.

#StablecoinLaw

๐Ÿ“Œ This law legally defines stablecoins for the first time in the US.

๐Ÿ“Œ Federal licensing and reserve requirements are being introduced.

Key provisions:

โ€“ Stablecoins must be backed by 100% cash or Treasury securities

โ€“ Cannot be issued without federal licensing

โ€“ Can be integrated into retirement systems like 401(k)s

โ€“ High transparency and regular reporting requirements will be mandated

This step could signal a new era for DeFi, payment systems, and institutional investments.

However, it also brings with it discussions about โ€œcentralization.โ€
