🇺🇸 Under the GENIUS Act, every stablecoin moving through a bank will be either permitted under federal law or not. A legitimate token can fall on the wrong side simply because its issuer isn't licensed in the US.

But banks can't completely choose which stablecoins reach them. They arrive through customers and counterparties, and a token's permitted status can change as it moves between them. What to do?

A crypto exchange as large as @bitget needs compliance infrastructure that can handle massive volumes.

OFAC has sanctioned four Iranian cryptoasset exchanges, including Nobitex, which processed more than half of all Iranian digital asset inflows in 2025. Elliptic's analysis links the four exchanges to over $40 billion in cryptoasset transactions.

Here's what this means for compliance teams worldwide: https://t.co/aML9aY0NML

Governance is what separates crypto companies that scale through regulation from ones that get caught out by it.

A few principles worth being direct about 🧵

Three lines of defense. The same model TradFi has used for decades.

If the model works for the banks, it works for crypto companies.

The argument that crypto needs something fundamentally different is usually an argument for cutting corners.

@prashant__sha Thank you!

@monerium operates in heavily regulated jurisdictions. It needs blockchain infrastructure that helps them stay compliant without slowing them down.

Plenty of regulatory action from the past two weeks. The highlights:

🇬🇧 The FCA and BoE set out their joint vision for tokenizing wholesale markets, with final UK stablecoin rules due before year-end.

🇬🇧 The UK hit HTX and 17 other entities with sanctions over Russia ties, its most aggressive cryptoasset-related action yet.

🇺🇸 Trump signed an Executive Order pushing Fed access for digital asset firms. The Fed proposed "skinny" Master Accounts the next day.

🇪🇺 The European Commission opened a consultation on MiCA, covering stablecoins, DeFi, prediction markets and tokenized deposits.

This and more in today's crypto regulatory affairs: https://t.co/w0HYeOOcBH

🇬🇧 The UK has hit Russia's A7 sanctions evasion network with one of its most expansive cryptoasset packages to date.
