Stablecoin Legislation: Maxine Waters' Financial Services Committee Proposal

This Episodedetails proposed US legislation concerning payment stablecoins. The legislation establishes a framework for regulating both bank and non-bank issuers, requiring licences, adherence to reserve requirements, and compliance with anti-money laundering laws. A key feature is the dual-banking system approach, with federal and state oversight. The bill provides for federal regulator supervision, enforcement mechanisms, and interoperability standards. Furthermore, a temporary moratorium is placed on endogenously collateralised stablecoins. The law aims to protect consumers and maintain financial stability within the digital asset space.
