Circle executive: The GENIUS Act prevents large tech companies and banks from dominating the stablecoin market

PANews reported on July 20 that according to Cointelegraph, Circle Chief Strategy Officer Dante Disparte said in the Unchained podcast that the GENIUS Act contains a little-known provision aimed at preventing technology giants and Wall Street giants from dominating the stablecoin market. Any non-bank institution that wants to issue a token pegged to the US dollar must set up "an independent entity that is more like Circle than a bank", clear antitrust obstacles, and accept the veto of the Treasury Committee. Disparte pointed out that lenders that issue stablecoins must deposit them in legally independent subsidiaries and include these stablecoins in their balance sheets that "do not bear risks, do not provide leverage, and do not provide loans." This structure is even "more conservative" than the deposit token model proposed by JPMorgan Chase and other institutions. He added: "It sets clear rules, and I think the biggest winners in the end are American consumers and market participants, and frankly, the US dollar itself."

The realization that they do more harm than good came late, but it came nonetheless. Does this mean that economic reason will prevail in the end? One can only hope so. But if this US administration is known for one thing, it is its unpredictability. In other words, anyone who buries decades of free trade with the rest of the world in a matter of days is capable of just about anything, Commerzbank’s Head of FX and Commodity Research Thu Lan Nguyen notes. Dollar dominance seen as geopolitical weapon “Last week, a Reuters article made the rounds reporting that EU officials are currently exploring alternatives to the existing Fed-backed dollar funding lines. The idea is that central banks outside the US would join forces and ‘pool’ their US dollar reserves so that they could draw on them in times of stress in the financial system. The concern seems that the Fed might terminate existing swap lines with some central banks, including the ECB. These are intended to provide sufficient USD liquidity outside the US in times of crisis, when demand for US dollars usually rises.” “These considerations show us, on the one hand, that the US administration has obviously created such a strong foreign policy rift that other countries are now questioning any dependence on the US and are sparing no effort to reduce it wherever possible. On the other hand, it shows once again that the supremacy of the US dollar in the global financial system is seen as a dangerous weapon. And rightly so, because US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, like his predecessors, had committed himself to a ‘strong dollar policy’ for good reason. This does not mean a policy of a strongly valued dollar, but rather a currency…
