This week, CCI filed two comment letters with @FinCENNews on its proposed rules to modernize the Bank Secrecy Act and set AML/CFT and sanctions standards for stablecoin issuers. CCI supports both risk-based frameworks and offers targeted recommendations to ensure the final rules are operationally workable. Key points ↓

On the stablecoins issuer rule, CCI welcomes GENIUS Act implementation and supports risk-calibrating AML/CFT obligations to each issuer, but urges FinCEN and OFAC to reaffirm the secondary market limiting principle, recognize that smart contract architecture makes secondary market rejection infeasible, and close the safe harbor gap for good-faith blocking.

In sum, CCI commends Treasury’s efforts to build clear, risk-based frameworks and stands ready to support faithful implementation. We look forward to sharing our expertise as these rules advance. Our letters: cryptoforinnovation.org/wp-c… and cryptoforinnovation.org/wp-c… / end.

At today's CCI and @SoFi Senate briefing, we discussed the cost of regulatory ambiguity for digital assets and how the Clarity Act would provide certainty for businesses and real protections for consumers. The EU, Singapore, UAE, and other jurisdictions already set their rules ahead of the U.S. The numbers don’t lie. 88% of centralized exchange volume and 81% of crypto developers are outside the U.S. This is why the Clarity Act is needed—the time is now. Thank you to members Matt Cameron (SoFi), @robinrcook (@coinbase), @Collin_McCune (@a16z), & moderator CCI's Freddy Barnes.

That's a wrap on our annual digital asset summit in London, hosted with @LathamWatkins and @GlobalDigitalFi and led by our UK Policy Lead Laura Navaratnam. Thank you to the regulators and policymakers from @HMTreasury, the @bankofengland, and the @TheFCA for a frank and constructive conversation on moving the UK regime from designing the rules to making them work in practice. And thank you to the industry experts who shared how firms are putting it into practice across payments, stablecoins, exchanges and digital assets: @binance, @Bitpanda, @circle, @coinbase, @Fireblockshq, @krakenfx, @meshpayments, @moonpay, @PayPal, @Schroders, @Stripe, @TRMLabs.

Finally, CCI supports the FDIC’s clarification that the application of deposit insurance to deposits does not depend upon the technology or record keeping used.
