About this episode
The episode discusses how Trump's GENIUS Act impacts stablecoins and the future of digital cash in the US.
Did the US really end plans for a digital dollar—or is something more subtle underway? Trump’s latest orders ban a retail CBDC but quietly set up stablecoins as the new foundation for digital cash, giving the Treasury powerful new tools while leaving consumers vulnerable.In this episode, DC exposes how the GENIUS Act creates a regulatory regime where stablecoin users help fund the US debt—without earning yield and with their money and privacy more exposed than ever before. If you use stablecoins, this story impacts you directly. Learn who profits from the new system, who is left out, and how the rules will shape the entire crypto ecosystem going forward, from privacy threats to profit opportunities.
