The GENIUS Act's failure to move to a full vote is "a bump in the road" and it will pass "in the next few weeks," says Cody Carbone, CEO of the Washington, DC,-based advocacy group. The stalling of key stablecoin legislation in the United States Senate was a minor setback, and the bill will pass in the coming weeks, said Cody Carbone, CEO of Digital Chamber, a Washington, DC,-based blockchain trade association and advocacy group. Speaking to Cointelegraph at Consensus 2025, Carbone argued it is in the best interests of the US to pass comprehensive stablecoin regulations to protect US dollar hegemony in global markets, which has bipartisan appeal and support. Carbone said: The Guiding and Establishing National Innovation in U.S. Stablecoins of 2025, or GENIUS Act, is seen as a critical piece of legislation. Failing to pass comprehensive regulatory reform before the midterm elections in 2026 could mean a reversal in the positive regulatory environment and a downturn in the crypto markets. Read more

In Part 3 of our DePIN Tokenomics series, we dissect the structural drivers shaping valuations across DePIN protocols. By comparing Digital Resource Networks (DRNs) and Physical Resource Networks (PRNs), we explore how fundamentals like revenue generation, capital intensity, and scalability models contribute to valuation gaps between the two categories. However, our analysis reveals that liquidity access, particularly via major centralized exchange listing, often plays an even more decisive role, driving valuation premiums that cannot be fully explained by fundamentals alone. This report provides a framework for understanding how these dynamics interact and offers key insights for founders and investors navigating the evolving DePIN landscape.

Banks are rapidly pivoting away from past practices of shunning crypto businesses to consider upgrading their payments infrastructure using stablecoins, eyeing them as the next frontier for payment innovation. Opinion by: Megan Knab, CEO, Franklin Payroll There are few historical examples of such a massive about-face for an industry, from banks debanking crypto businesses to now embracing stablecoins. If you talk to most crypto startup founders or companies with crypto on the balance sheet, they will all have war stories about finding, applying for and maintaining bank accounts.  Over the past three years, over half of debanking complaints have been lodged against four American banks — Bank of America, JPMorgan, Wells Fargo and Citibank. Now, as the policies that discriminated against the crypto industry, like “Operation Chokepoint 2.0” and the recision of controversial accounting rule SAB 121, have been repealed, a new openness to blockchain technology from the finance sector is possible.  Read more
