The U.S. Treasury has issued proposed rules under the GENIUS Act to implement key stablecoin provisions, including requirements for domestic issuers and treatment of foreign stablecoin products, according to a report by Wu Blockchain.

The proposal arrives as stablecoin settlement and tokenization are influencing market infrastructure; LMAX: Stablecoins and Tokenization Are Fixing Crypto’s Settlement Bottleneck examines how tokenized settlement can reduce friction.
