СВЕЖИЕ НОВОСТИ: Эмитент $USDT Tether стал крупнейшим независимым держателем золота в мире, сообщает FT.

EVERYONE THOUGHT THE GENIUS ACT WAS ABOUT CRYPTO REGULATION. THE DATA JUST PROVED IT WAS SOMETHING ELSE ENTIRELY. Four months ago, Trump signed a law that made headlines for 48 hours. Tech regulation. Stablecoin rules. The market moved on. But the numbers that just came out tell a completely different story. The GENIUS Act buried one sentence in 47 pages: every stablecoin dollar must be backed 100% by U.S. Treasury bills. Nothing else qualifies. Not cash in banks. Not corporate bonds. Only government debt. Stablecoin market cap when the law passed in July: $200 billion. Stablecoin market cap today: $309 billion. That’s $109 billion in new legally mandated purchases of U.S. government debt in 4 months. Treasury Secretary Bessent’s official projection: $3 trillion by 2030. Here’s what that actually means. The government doesn’t need to find buyers for its debt anymore. The law creates the buyers automatically. Every time someone anywhere in the world buys a digital dollar, a stablecoin company is legally required to buy a Treasury bill with that money. The Bank for International Settlements measured the effect. Every $3.5 billion in stablecoin growth lowers what the government pays to borrow money by 0.025%. At $3 trillion, that saves $114 billion per year. That’s $900 per U.S. household in lower debt costs. Bessent confirmed it last week. He said because of stablecoin growth, Treasury doesn’t need to increase the size of bond auctions. The government found a way to fund spending without traditional buyers. The institution that proves it’s real: JPMorgan. After 10 years of calling crypto fraud, they announced last month they now accept Bitcoin as collateral. The largest bank in America doesn’t reverse a decade of policy because of trends. They reverse because the power structure changed. What changed: the law moved regulatory control from the Federal Reserve to the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency. That office reports directly to the Treasury Secretary. The Treasury now controls who can create digital dollars. And the law requires those digital dollars to fund government debt. This is not monetary policy. This is legislative engineering of debt demand. And it’s been operational since July.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Read the full deep dive analysis - Subscribe for the daily premium newsletter!
