The GENIUS Act is progressively tightening US stablecoin regulation, pushing issuers and exchanges toward federal licensing, compliance deadlines, and KYC requirements.

Under the GENIUS Act, stablecoin issuers face a July 2028 compliance deadline, after which non-compliant issuers including Tether could be restricted from US cryptocurrency exchange platforms. Multiple reports confirm this timeline, describing it as a two-year countdown that threatens USDT's dominant position on US platforms. The GENIUS Act also missed its one-year rulemaking deadline, compressing the implementation window for issuers.
