Fed just dropped a bomb: mandatory KYC for all stablecoin issuers in the US
This isn't a proposal anymore—it's happening. Every issuer will need full identity verification on users.
What this means:
• $USDT $USDC facing stricter compliance
• Smaller stablecoin projects getting squeezed out
• More friction = less liquidity for DeFi
• Offshore alternatives about to pump
The regulatory noose is tightening. If you're holding stables, know which ones can survive this. If you're building, offshore might be your only play.
TradFi playbook in full effect.
