The Stablecoin Transparency Act requires issuers of fiat‑backed stablecoins to hold reserves in short‑term government securities, fully collateralized repurchase agreements, or cash, and to publicly disclose audited reserve reports every 30 days. It defines what a fiat‑backed stablecoin is and who counts as a stablecoin issuer. The law applies to any person that issues a stablecoin redeemable one‑to‑one for a fiat currency.

Key Provisions

  • Define “fiat currency‑backed stablecoin” as a digital asset whose value is backed one‑to‑one by a non‑digital currency and redeemable at parity.
  • Define “stablecoin issuer” as any person issuing such a stablecoin.
  • Require issuers to keep all reserves in U.S. government securities maturing within 12 months, fully collateralized repurchase agreements, or U.S. dollars/other non‑digital currency.
  • Mandate that issuers publish an audited reserve report on their website within 30 days of enactment and every 30 days thereafter.
