🚀 Fed Governor Bowman Discusses Bank Survival and Deposit Insurance

According to Odaily, Federal Reserve Governor Michelle Bowman stated that the Fed is not responsible for ensuring the survival of every bank. She emphasized the importance of thoroughly examining deposit insurance, suggesting that the current $250,000 limit may not be a 'magic number.'

Previously, Castle Island Ventures partner Nic Carter commented that Silvergate Bank, a crypto-friendly institution, might have survived if not for the forced voluntary liquidation by U.S. regulatory agencies aiming to stifle the cryptocurrency industry. Carter cited Silvergate's recent bankruptcy filing and conversations with sources indicating that the Biden administration had instructed the bank to limit crypto deposits to 15% or face consequences.

🚀 PayPal Seeks Utah Banking License to Establish Lending Institution

According to PANews, PayPal (NASDAQ: PYPL) announced on Monday its application for an industrial bank charter in Utah, aiming to establish a lending institution named 'PayPal Bank.' The company, which operates the PYUSD stablecoin in collaboration with Paxos, stated in a press release that it plans to offer 'business loan solutions' to small enterprises and open interest-bearing savings accounts for other customers. Additionally, PayPal intends to collaborate with credit card networks and has applied for deposit insurance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.

Although PayPal's Monday statement did not mention its cryptocurrency-related operations, the company has recently increased its investments in this area. Earlier this year, PayPal enhanced its services by introducing wallet-to-wallet cryptocurrency transfer capabilities, allowing users to create personalized links for sending or requesting funds via cryptocurrency. Furthermore, PayPal launched a 'Pay with Crypto' feature for merchant services, acting as an intermediary to enable merchants to accept cryptocurrency as a payment method.

🚀 FDIC to Block Stablecoin Insurance Under GENIUS Act

FDIC Chairman Travis Hill announced that stablecoin holders will not be eligible for U.S. deposit insurance under the GENIUS Act. According to NS3.AI, the agency intends to prevent the pass-through structure that could provide up to $250,000 of coverage to eligible depositors. Hill noted that most large stablecoin arrangements fail to meet the necessary customer identity requirements for this insurance model. The law is set to be fully implemented either 18 months after its signing or 120 days following the finalization of agency rules.

🚀 FDIC Proposes Stablecoin Issuer Framework Under GENIUS Act

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) has introduced a proposed framework for stablecoin issuers under the GENIUS Act, initiating a 60-day public comment period with 144 questions. According to NS3.AI, the draft outlines capital, liquidity, and custody standards for U.S. depository institutions issuing stablecoins through subsidiaries. However, the final rule will be established only after further review.

The proposal specifies that payment stablecoins will not be covered by deposit insurance, whereas tokenized deposits that meet the statutory definition of deposits will be treated similarly to other deposits. Additionally, the draft states that issuers are prohibited from claiming that payment stablecoins offer interest or yield simply for holding or using them, including through third-party arrangements.
