The U.S. Senate has approved the GENIUS Act, which is considered the first comprehensive regulatory framework for dollar-pegged stablecoins, marking a pivotal moment in the regulation of the digital assets sector. The law mandates that stablecoin issuers maintain liquid financial reserves such as cash and Treasury bonds, along with a monthly disclosure of those assets to ensure transparency and stability. The measure received broad bipartisan support, with 68 members in favor and 30 against, in a move that reflects a rare consensus on a highly sensitive issue. However, the law has sparked internal controversy due to what some Democrats view as loopholes related to conflicts of interest, especially given the exemption of the president and their family from some of the restrictions imposed on Congress. Questions have also been raised about the potential for this legislation to enhance the influence of major tech companies. The law is now on its way to the House of Representatives, where it is expected to undergo further discussions and possibly amendments before reaching the president's desk. This regulatory framework is expected to bring about a transformation in the digital currency landscape, as it opens the door for broader adoption of stablecoins while maintaining financial security standards and user trust in the digital financial system.
