On July 17, 2025, President Donald J. Trump signed the GENIUS Act into law — a major step that positions the U.S. to lead the global digital currency revolution.
🔒 Protecting Consumers, Strengthening Trust
The GENIUS Act introduces the first-ever federal regulatory framework for stablecoins, ensuring security and transparency:
100% reserve backing required (U.S. dollars or short-term Treasuries)
Monthly public disclosures of reserves
Strict advertising rules to prevent misleading claims (e.g., falsely claiming government backing)
In the event of bankruptcy, stablecoin holders get priority over other creditors
💵 Securing the U.S. Dollar's Role as Global Reserve Currency
By mandating that stablecoins are backed with U.S. Treasuries and dollars, the GENIUS Act will:
Boost demand for U.S. debt
Reinforce the dollar as the world’s reserve currency
Attract digital asset innovation to the U.S. under clear, consistent rules
🛡 Enhancing National Security & Fighting Illicit Use
Stablecoin issuers must comply with the Bank Secrecy Act (BSA)
Required to have anti-money laundering & sanctions compliance programs
Must be technically able to freeze, burn, or seize coins when legally ordered
🇺🇸 Fulfilling the Promise to Lead in Crypto
President Trump is keeping his promise to make America the global hub for crypto:
Issued Executive Orders to boost U.S. leadership in digital assets
Established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and Digital Asset Stockpile
Emphasized that crypto can bring massive innovation and investment
“The GENIUS Act is going to make America the undisputed leader in digital assets. Digital assets are the future — and America will own that future. No delays. Let’s show the world how to WIN with crypto.” — President Trump
This is a historic turning point for the U.S. crypto industry — providing clear rules, boosting investor confidence, and signaling that America is open for digital finance business.
