US EditionGENIUS Act Lacks ‘Necessary Guardrails’ For Investor Protection, NYAG Letitia James Tells Congress
- On July 1, Attorney General Letitia James delivered an eight-page letter to Congress expressing concerns that the recently approved Senate GENIUS Act falls short in adequately protecting stablecoin issuers.
- James argued that the current stablecoin bills, including the GENIUS and STABLE Acts, do not adequately protect investors or address risks posed by foreign issuers and anonymous transactions.
- She proposed regulating stablecoin issuers like banks, requiring FDIC insurance, digital identity verification for holders, and eliminating non-bank issuers to strengthen oversight and protect community banks.
- James cautioned that the lack of oversight in cryptocurrency dealings poses significant risks to investors, the broader economy, and national security, emphasizing the urgency of federal regulations by referencing $14 billion in crypto-related criminal activities reported in 2024.
- Her call for stronger regulation reflects concerns about unchecked digital asset proliferation and could influence future federal oversight amid ongoing debate over stablecoin legislation.
