Banks Can Soon Issue Stablecoins: FDIC Begins Rulemaking Under GENIUS Act

bitcoinistPublicado a 2025-12-16Actualizado a 2025-12-16

Resumen

The FDIC has announced a new framework allowing banks to apply for issuing payment stablecoins through subsidiaries under the GENIUS Act. Acting Chair Travis Hill stated the process is designed to ensure the safety and soundness of bank applications. Banks must submit detailed proposals, including descriptions of the stablecoin, subsidiary activities, financial information, ownership structure, and customer policies. The FDIC will notify applicants within 30 days if an application is substantially complete and must decide on approval within 120 days thereafter. This is the first step in implementing the stablecoin law, with further proposals on management standards and digital asset regulations expected.

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has announced a new framework that outlines how banks can apply to issue payment stablecoins through subsidiaries as part of the implementation of the country’s stablecoin bill, the GENIUS Act.

FDIC’s First Move On GENIUS Act

In a statement, Acting Chair Travis Hill emphasized that the proposed process is tailored to allow the FDIC to thoroughly evaluate the safety and soundness of applications from banks seeking to enter the stablecoin market.

According to a summary from FDIC staff, banks wishing to issue payment stablecoins will need to submit detailed applications outlining various aspects of their proposed activities.

Each application must include a description of the intended payment stablecoin, along with a comprehensive overview of the subsidiary’s activities.

Additionally, institutions must provide financial information, details regarding the ownership and control structure of the subsidiary, and pertinent policies related to customer agreements, including provisions for custody. Applicants will need to submit an engagement letter from a registered public accounting firm.

30-Day Review Period For Stablecoin Applications

The FDIC aims to promptly review submissions, notifying stablecoin applicants within 30 days whether their application has been deemed substantially complete. Following that, the agency must make a decision on approval within 120 days from the time the application reaches this status.

“This proposed rule is the FDIC’s first action to implement the GENIUS Act,” stated Acting Chairman Travis Hill. He added that in the coming months, the agency plans to introduce proposals to establish the required management standards for subsidiaries of FDIC-supervised institutions that are approved to issue payment stablecoins.

The FDIC is also committed to providing comprehensive regulatory clarity regarding activities associated with digital assets and tokenized deposits. The plan will undergo a public consultation period before it can be finalized.

Pundit Shows How XRP’s Performance Has Outpaced Hedge Funds

Crypto pundit Vandell highlights XRP's significant outperformance compared to hedge funds since its launch. From its 2014 low of $0.0028 to a 2025 all-time high of $3.64, XRP delivered a return of roughly 129,900%. Even from its 2020 low of $0.11, it surged 33x in five years. Vandell states that utility and adoption are merely "icing on the cake," asserting that XRP's value will appreciate over time as long as the money supply increases. He also suggests that regulatory clarity, such as the potential passage of the CLARITY Act, could trigger historic institutional inflows. While acknowledging it could take years or decades, Vandell believes XRP could reach $1,000 due to its limited supply and sustained demand from fiat debasement and investor accumulation. At the time of writing, XRP is trading around $1.44.

Liquidity Forecasts Show Ozak AI Reaching a $1.5 Billion Fully Diluted Valuation Soon After Launch

Updated liquidity forecasts indicate that Ozak AI is positioned to reach a fully diluted valuation (FDV) of $1.5 billion shortly after its initial exchange listings. With over $6.8 million raised in its presale—priced at $0.014 per token—and more than 1.17 billion tokens already sold, the project has demonstrated strong early capital formation, reducing downside risk during price discovery. Analysts highlight that Ozak AI’s concentrated early supply and capital-efficient structure could allow smaller liquidity injections to drive significant valuation expansion, potentially bypassing lower valuation ranges entirely. The project’s AI-native infrastructure—including Prediction Agents, the Ozak Stream Network, Data Vaults, EigenLayer integration, and Arbitrum Orbit deployment—supports higher valuation multiples by offering tangible utility rather than speculative appeal. Partnerships with Pyth Network, SINT, HIVE Intel, and Weblume further strengthen liquidity confidence and exchange adoption prospects. With robust presale performance, functional AI infrastructure, and favorable liquidity dynamics, Ozak AI is emerging as a liquidity-driven growth asset with the potential for rapid post-launch valuation scaling.

Key factors driving this outlook include concentrated early investor interest, AI and DePIN utility, and strategic partnerships enhancing functionality and credibility. Unlike hype-driven tokens, Ozak AI’s real-world use cases in staking and ecosystem integrations support sustained trading activity beyond initial speculation.

Clarity Act Reaches Critical Juncture: The U.S. Crypto Regulatory Crossroads

The U.S. cryptocurrency regulatory landscape faces a historic turning point in spring 2026. The fate of the CLARITY Act, which aims to establish a comprehensive market structure framework for digital assets—hangs in the balance. If it fails to clear the Senate Banking Committee by late April, its chances of passage drop drastically, potentially delaying U.S. crypto legislation for years. Simultaneously, the GENIUS Act is reshaping the stablecoin market through stringent prudential regulations, including AML/CFT compliance and reserve requirements, favoring major compliant players like USDC and Tether’s new USAT. A key political compromise led by Senators Tillis and Alsobrooks addresses contentious issues like stablecoin yields, though critical implementation details remain unresolved. The White House strongly supports the legislation as part of a strategy to make the U.S. a global crypto hub, but political challenges—including midterm elections and cross-party demands—threaten its progress. If passed, the CLARITY Act could unlock trillions in institutional capital and help the U.S. compete with the EU’s MiCA framework. If stalled, global regulatory leadership may shift to Europe and Asia. Regardless of outcome, regulatory clarity and compliance infrastructure are becoming central to competitive advantage in the crypto industry.

Warsh Hearing Concludes: What Are the Notable Signals for the Crypto Industry?

The Senate Banking Committee held a confirmation hearing for Judy Shelton, a Federal Reserve nominee, who faced intense questioning regarding her ability to maintain the central bank's independence amid pressure from President Trump to lower interest rates. Shelton denied any pre-arranged commitments on rate cuts and emphasized her independence, though Democrats remained skeptical, citing contradictions with Trump's public statements. Shelton characterized post-pandemic inflation as a major policy failure and called for a "regime change" in the Fed’s approach, including reforms to inflation measurement and communication strategies. She criticized the current practice of Fed officials frequently signaling future rate moves and did not commit to maintaining post-meeting press conferences, suggesting potential reductions in transparency. Regarding crypto markets, Shelton’s extensive investments in digital asset companies—including Solana, DeFi, and blockchain infrastructure—were noted, though she has pledged to divest these holdings due to ethics rules. Her familiarity with the crypto industry and deregulatory leanings may signal a more open, though cautious, stance toward digital assets. However, concerns were raised about potential conflicts of interest, especially given Trump family involvement in crypto-financial ventures. The timing of her confirmation remains uncertain, pending a Justice Department investigation into current Chair Powell. Shelton’s potential leadership could lead to a more hawkish, productivity-focused Fed with tighter policy communication—factors that may significantly influence liquidity conditions and macro narratives for crypto markets.
