What does the GENIUS Act mean for stablecoins?

It sets reserve, disclosure, and oversight rules, with agencies like FDIC detailing ops. Turns crypto gimmick into bank-adjacent tool — slowly.

Not soon. Niche for now — cross-border, DeFi. Mass adoption needs bank ties, which regs enable but don't guarantee.
