Yield-bearing stablecoins have had decent growth, now topping $6 billion in supply and paying out nearly $600 million to users, according to data from Stablewatch. But just as these products go mainstream, the U.S. Senate is moving forward with a stablecoin bill that could ban them outright in America.
In this episode, NYU professor and Zero Knowledge Consulting founder Austin Campbell joins Laura to break down:
Why yield-bearing stablecoins are under fire in Washington
Why Dems are pushing for the ban and who stands to benefit
How this bill could give foreign issuers an edge over U.S. ones
Whether yield-bearing stablecoins are securities under U.S. law
And what the future holds for projects like Ethena, Sky, and others
