🚨 GENIUS Act just got real
Fed, Treasury, FDIC, OCC, and NCUA dropped a joint proposal: stablecoin issuers must now run full KYC like banks
What this means:
• Customer ID programs (CIPs) are mandatory
• Identity verification before onboarding
• Record keeping + screening = compliance hell
• Same AML rules banks deal with
This isn't a draft anymore. Regulators are moving fast to box in $USDT $USDC and every stablecoin issuer
Bullish for compliant stables. Bearish for privacy maxis. The rails are getting institutionalized whether we like it or not
