The US Treasury’s proposed GENIUS Act rules shift the stablecoin debate from broad principles toward jurisdiction and distribution. By defining when issuance occurs in the US and when tokens are offered to US persons, the framework could make licensing status a practical gate for both issuers and platforms. The staggered deadlines matter: approval generally applies to US issuance from Jan 18, 2027, while providers serving US users generally face licensed-issuer requirements from Jul 18, 2028. My read is that this sequencing gives markets time to adapt, but may also concentrate liquidity around issuers able to secure approval. The public-comment process is therefore material for USDC, USDT and exchanges. Not advice, just analysis. #GENIUSRulesProposed
