⛔️ Five leading U.S. banking associations ask OCC to postpone the issuance of licenses to Ripple, Circle and Fidelity...

OCC (Office of the Comptroller of the Currency) is a bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury that issues federal banking licenses, as well as regulates, supervises and inspects national banks and federal savings associations, monitoring their financial stability and compliance with laws.

🧐 Coinbase and PayPal bypassed the GENIUS law and continue to pay 4-5% per annum to #USDC and #PYUSD holders.

Although GENIUS prohibits stablecoin issuers from calculating profitability, crypto giants have found a loophole.

How it works:

✦ USDC issues Circle, and Coinbase simply accrues «rewards» without calling them interest.

✦ PYUSD releases Paxos, and PayPal allegedly only «provides access to the program».

The ban applies to issuers, not platforms that issue remuneration on behalf of partners or from profits on placed assets.

Critics believe that «yiel» and «remuneration» are the same, but legal wording allows you to circumvent the law.

💳 Visa tests stablecoins for international payments.

The global payment giant has launched a pilot project: companies will be able to use stablecoins (#USDC, #EURC) to replenish Visa Direct instead of fiat.

What does it mean:
➤ Businesses (banks, transfer services) will be able to send money abroad faster and cheaper.
➤ Settlements will take minutes instead of days, and liquidity will not need to be frozen in advance.
➤ Recipients will always be able to receive payments in their local currency.

A limited launch is scheduled for April 2026. In the future, Visa plans to expand the list of stablecoins.

Vice President of Visa: «International payments are stuck in old systems. Integration of stablecoins in Visa Direct is a step towards the world of instant global payments».

🤔 Fintech giant Modern Treasury bought Beam, a startup that creates payment solutions based on stablecoins.

Modern Treasury manages the settlements of the largest banks and corporations (customers - Silicon Valley Bank, Cross River, JP Morgan, etc.).

Now the same processes will be connected to #USDC and other digital assets.

In addition, Beam creates software that allows banks and corporations to send and receive stablecoins as ordinary money.

Now it will be part of Modern Treasury and, perhaps, the first step towards the mass implementation of USDC in corporate settlements.
