The U.S. Congress is discussing the possibility of enacting laws that would require stablecoin issuers like Tether to hold reserves in U.S. Treasury bonds. This could significantly impact Tether's popularity and stability.

Congress Considers Tether Reserve Legislation

If new laws are passed, stablecoin issuers like Tether will need to maintain reserves in U.S. Treasury bonds, ensuring full transparency and reliability of the assets backing them.

Tensions Rise Over Tether's Transparency

Armstrong's comments highlight the growing tension between regulatory bodies and the cryptocurrency industry. Investigations by the Justice and Treasury Departments focus on whether Tether’s reserves are fully backed and properly audited. For years, Tether has faced criticism for not providing fully transparent financial records.

Coinbase May Delist Tether

Coinbase's CEO stressed that if the legal requirements change, the exchange would be compelled to delist Tether. This would impact the stablecoin's popularity, which is currently widely used by traders and investors.

Experts believe that a more transparent, fully-backed stablecoin system could enhance investor confidence and improve the reputation of digital assets.
