The GENIUS Act establishes a dual federal-state regulatory framework for payment stablecoins in the US, introducing stringent reserve requirements and supervisory rules for issuers based on their size and type.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You must navigate new federal rules that separate stablecoin issuers by size and jurisdiction, with strict reserve and disclosure requirements. This framework opens regulatory pathways for larger issuers but complicates market access for smaller nonbank players.
