Federal Reserve Unveils New Stablecoin Regulatory Framework

The Federal Reserve is taking steps to regulate stablecoins by outlining a new framework expected to be in place by December 2025. This initiative focuses on dollar-backed stablecoins and their significant impact on the financial landscape. The Fed, working alongside other US bank regulators, aims to create clearer rules for this sector. This move stems from increasing use of stablecoins in decentralized finance (DeFi) and payment systems, prompting a need for regulatory oversight.
