🔥 A Quiet Law. A Loud Consequence. 🚨
While everyone argued about rate cuts and elections, something far bigger slipped through Congress almost unnoticed: the GENIUS Act.
On paper: Regulatory cleanup.
In reality: A potential turning point for global money.
💥 What Everyone Missed
U.S. stablecoins can no longer pay yield.
Sounds technical? It’s not.
Take Tether:
~$135B parked in U.S. Treasuries
~4.5% yield → ~$6B per year
Who gets it? Not you. Every dollar goes to the issuer.
💡 Holding digital dollars just became a cost, not a benefit.
🐉 Meanwhile… China Made a Different Choice
Starting Jan 1, 2026, Digital Yuan pays interest (~0.35%)
Global users now face a simple choice:
• Hold USD → earn nothing
• Hold e-CNY → earn something
It’s not ideology. It’s incentives. Money follows yield.
🏦 Institutions Aren’t Waiting
Capital is already migrating into yield-bearing alternatives:
BlackRock BUIDL
Franklin Templeton BENJI
~4.9% yield
Billions flowing quietly. No speeches. No headlines. Just movement.
⚠️ The Risk No One Talks About
Stablecoin issuers do not have a Federal Reserve backstop.
BIS Paper 1270 warns:
A liquidity shock → mass Treasury sales → yields spike → markets wobble → real-world consequences
This isn’t crypto risk.
It’s Treasury market risk.
🧠 The Strategic Misstep
U.S. → made the dollar extractive
China → made its currency distributive
That difference matters more than slogans.
Dollar dominance isn’t lost in a crash.
It erodes quietly… through better options.
👀 Keep an eye on:

$ICP 💥 This isn’t theory — it’s where global capital is quietly moving.
