📣 June 12 — Key Statements from U.S. Treasury Secretary Bensent
1. Stablecoins Could Reinforce Dollar Dominance
U.S. Treasury Secretary Bensent emphasized that stablecoins may help reinforce the global dominance of the U.S. dollar. This highlights a growing recognition within the U.S. government that digitally backed dollars (like USDT, USDC) are playing an increasingly strategic role in global finance.
"If regulated properly, stablecoins could support the dollar's leadership in a digital financial future," Bensent noted.
Implication:
Clearer and possibly supportive regulation for USD-backed stablecoins.
Stablecoins may become an official tool in maintaining the dollar’s global influence.
Positive sentiment for crypto markets, especially for dollar-based stablecoins.
2. U.S. Debt Ceiling Crisis Warning
Bensent also warned that failure to resolve the U.S. debt ceiling issue could trigger the most severe financial crisis since 2008–09.
"If Congress fails to act, the consequences could rival the 2008 financial collapse," Bensent warned.
Implication:
Potential market turbulence across equities, bonds, and currencies.
Safe-haven assets like gold and Bitcoin may see increased demand.
Heightened concerns about U.S. fiscal health and dollar credibility.
TL;DR:
Stablecoins are being recognized as strategic assets for U.S. dollar power.
The unresolved debt ceiling could shake global markets.
Stay alert — volatility could bring both risk and opportunity.
The market is already showing bearish momentum
