The GENIUS Act, effective mid-2028, requires stablecoin issuers like Tether to hold 1:1 USD reserves, publish monthly disclosures, and comply with anti-money laundering laws to operate in the US. Tether launched a compliant stablecoin, USA₮, for the US market while continuing USDT internationally. If Tether's USDT does not receive Treasury approval as a compliant foreign issuer, it could be banned from US exchanges. Final compliance rules are expected in early 2027, giving Tether and others about 18 months to adapt before the enforcement deadline.
