The U.S. Senate Passed Stablecoin Regulatory Bill, Advancing Regulatory Process

The U.S. Senate recently passed the landmark "GENIUS Act," marking an important step forward for the federal government's regulation of stablecoins. The passage of this bill also puts pressure on the House of Representatives to advance the next phase of national digital asset regulation. This is the first time the Senate has passed such significant cryptocurrency legislation.

The main sponsor of the bill expressed gratitude to some colleagues before the official vote. Not long ago, the lawmakers had overwhelmingly voted in favor of the bill, so its final passage was expected.

Next, the House will need to decide how to advance the relevant legislative work. Earlier this year, the House Financial Services Committee proposed its own stablecoin legislation, but the proposal has not yet been submitted for a vote by the full House.

The Federal Reserve will discuss easing bank leverage requirements

The Federal Reserve plans to hold a meeting to discuss plans to relax leverage requirements for large banks. This could signal the Federal Reserve's reconsideration of bank regulatory rules. The meeting will take place on June 25 to discuss proposed changes to the "supplementary leverage ratio." This will be the first meeting since the appointment of the new top regulatory official.

Relaxing the leverage ratio requirement may be the first in a series of easing rule plans by the Federal Reserve. New officials aim to reform the way the Federal Reserve regulates and supervises large, complex banks. While specific proposal details have not yet been released, the banking industry has been calling for changes to the supplementary leverage ratio for years, hoping to exempt assets traditionally considered safe or modify the formula for calculating the leverage ratio. The banking industry believes that the current supplementary leverage ratio may hinder its ability to enter the intermediate Treasury market during periods of market stress.
