“Will the US set standards for stablecoins, or would we continue down the path of uncertainty? Have you ever noticed how the lines on our highways allow us to drive faster and more safely? The rules of the road don’t limit us, they empower us. The rules of finance allow businesses to go faster and farther too. That’s the reason why US markets are the envy of the world.”

Pointing to clear-cut laws in centralized finance, the company advocated for pro-stablecoin laws giving the country an edge. Describing stablecoins as the foundation for modern commerce, Circle added that it can do for finance what email did for communication. Furthermore, the company noted that stablecoin laws in the United States can help preserve the dollar as the world reserve currency. 

A Move To Protect Investors

Specifically, calls for stablecoin regulation have been made to protect investors. Commentators for pro-markets regulation cite the need to improve cross-border payment in a safe architecture. Circle issues the USDC and highlights its pathway to regulations.

Per the release, its stablecoin reserves are public on its website calling on authorities to make broader rules to protect investors. The company added that the country is a massive opportunity to lead finance to the next internet wave.
