What this amendment would do

Mr. Hickenlooper submitted SA 2305 to the bill S. 1582, which provides for the regulation of payment stablecoins.

What It Aims to Change

  • It strikes paragraph (11) in section 4(a) of the bill and replaces it with a new rule regarding a Prohibition on interest.

  • It explicitly bans any permitted payment stablecoin issuer, foreign payment stablecoin issuer, or their affiliate from paying the holder of a payment stablecoin any form of interest or yield.

  • This ban applies directly or indirectly, and covers cash, tokens, rewards, or other consideration connected to holding, using, or retaining the stablecoin.

  • It directs primary Federal payment stablecoin regulators to issue rules to carry out this prohibition, including rules that identify activities or transactions outside the scope of this ban.
