๐บ๐ธ US Senators Propose Game-Changing Crypto Bill
๐ The new "Responsible Financial Innovation Act of 2025 (RFIA)" could reboot the US crypto market.
Key points:
๐น Tokens โ Securities if projects disclose ownership, distribution, and investor rights โ allowing secondary trading without SEC oversight.
๐น Reg DA: simplified token sales up to $75M/year with a 4-year grace period and no IPO-style filings.
๐น Fintech sandbox: Startups can test blockchain ideas without fear of immediate regulation.
๐น First-ever legal definitions for digital and ancillary assets.
โ Regulatory clarity = less risk, easier fundraising, and a stronger US crypto ecosystem.

๐ก Polymarket May Launch Its Own Stablecoin
Prediction market Polymarket is considering launching a native stablecoin, aiming to capture yield currently earned by Circle from locked USDC in betting pools. ๐ต
๐ธ Why?
Right now, millions in USDC sit idle in Polymarket. Circle earns the interest โ Polymarket wants that revenue instead.
๐ธ Whatโs the plan?
A closed-loop ecosystem: users swap USDC/USDT for an internal stablecoin, bypassing fiat, banks, and regulatory headaches.
๐ธ Why now?
The recent GENIUS Act in the U.S. makes launching stablecoins easier. Meanwhile, Circle has started sharing yield to stay competitive.
Stablecoin wars just got a new player. ๐ง
