Most significantly, the GENIUS Act became law when President Trump signed the legislation on July 18. This groundbreaking framework establishes the first federal regulations for “payment stablecoins,” mandating full 1:1 backing by cash or liquid U.S. Treasuries, while enforcing monthly reserve disclosures and auditing requirements.

Speaking on CNBC’s “Squawk Box” in July, Garlinghouse characterized the potential expansion as “profound,” citing institutional momentum and evolving regulatory frameworks as primary catalysts.
