While USD₮ continues to be the global tool, USA₮ is designed for U.S. institutions and its payment system. It is not legal tender, but operates within the regulatory perimeter of the U.S.
Why is it a milestone for the monetary system? 🌐
We are facing "digital dollarization" as a defensive weapon. The GENIUS Act allows stablecoins to absorb the debt that other countries no longer want.

The direct impact on Mexico 🇲🇽🇺🇸
This movement strikes the most sensitive chord in the country: remittances.
1. The tax factor: With the new 1% tax on physical remittances/checks effective from January 1, 2026, in the U.S., a regulated digital infrastructure like USA₮ is the legal and efficient escape route.
2. Inclusion: It offers the 39 million Mexicans in the U.S. an alternative 90% cheaper than the traditional system.
3. Shelter: It facilitates access for savers in Mexico to a "dollar with federal seal" without going through physical windows.
