FDIC sets 38-page framework for bank-issued payment stablecoins under GENIUS Act
The FDIC published a 38-page proposal outlining how regulated banks could apply, via subsidiaries, to issue payment stablecoins. According to an FDIC website posting, the draft lays out approval criteria and oversight; as Bloomberg reported, it will undergo a public consultation before advancing. The GENIUS Act cleared the Senate in June and was signed by President Donald Trump on July 18.
