Circle’s Head of Global Policy Dante Disparte believes the crypto space needs more regulatory clarity in the form of frameworks like Europe’s MiCA. During a fireside chat session at Paris Blockchain Week with TRM Labs’ Global Head of Policy Ari Redbord on April 8, Disparte emphasized the importance of clear regulation in helping bring more investors, financial institutions, and stakeholders into the crypto space. “The regulation works. If international investors are attracted to invest not just in France but to gain from the legal and regulatory clarity that MICA provides, that creates an environment of legal certainty,” said Disparte. Therefore, he believes Europe has the best chance to “enshrine what universally portable internet-based money and financial services could mean” through its Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation or MiCA framework. In fact, the Circle ( USDC ) representative stated that his team has been trying to advocate for two stablecoin acts in the United States , the GENIUS Act and STABLE Act , to reach the level of legal clarity that MiCA is able to provide for European markets. “When you put them together you get a Stable Genius. A framework that up levels to MiCA so that we have transatlantic harmonization and regulatory reciprocity, as opposed to create a race to the bottom even across the U.S. and the European partnership,” stated Disparte. Moreover, Disparte said that Circle supports European regulators’ decision to equate MiCA-compliant stablecoins to an e-money token, in which the framework prohibits the token from generating yield for customers who hold stablecoin . “We agree. We think interest in stablecoin land is a secondary market innovation. And if you want the innovation to work as stated, if you want the bill of goods to work as stated, it has to be a unit of measure, a medium of exchange and a store of value just like a physical dollar or a physical euro,” said Disparte. Introduced in June 2023, the MiCA stablecoin laws brought about strict regulations and standards for crypto firms and stablecoin issuers, one of them is a ban on offering stablecoin interests or yield. As a result, stablecoin issuers like Tether ( USDT ) and Circle had to adjust their operations by complying to the MiCA laws if they wish to continue operating within the European regions. In July 2024, Circle became the first stablecoin company to secure a Electronic Money Institution license from French regulators, allowing them to market their MiCA-compliant stablecoin across Europe.

The State of Wyoming has officially launched the first state-affiliated stablecoin, the Wyoming Stable Token (WYST), on multiple blockchains. This is a major advancement, as Wyoming is the first state in the United States to offer a fiat-backed and reserve-created stablecoin. Wyoming officials disclosed the testing phase during the official fireside chat at the DC Blockchain Summit on March 26. Governor Mark Gordon, who also chairs the Stable Token Commission, noted the stable leadership Wyoming is taking in advocating for the legalisation of digital assets. Speaking to Executive Director Anthony Apollo, he confirmed that WYST has been deployed on the Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, and Base testnets using valueless tokens. This stablecoin follows the legal laws for over-collateralization with cash and the U.S. Treasury funds to meet its mandates. The interest that is generated from such reserves will go to the Wyoming School Foundation Fund, giving the initiative a broader state-level applicability. The Governor of Wyoming stressed Wyoming’s dedication to blockchain transparency and security, pointing out that the stablecoin backed by reserves will be auditable. LayerZero Labs, the token issuance partner for WYST, is overseeing the technical implementation of WYST by using the Omnichain Fungible Token (OFT) Standard. This architecture allows the issuance of tokens from one chain to live on another chain with ease. During initial demonstrations, a cross-chain transaction was performed with Ethereum and Avalanche testnets using the Stargate bridge, which operates on LayerZero technology. Simon Baksys, the Vice President of Business Development at LayerZero Labs, explained that the Wyoming dollar onchain is the future of Finance. WYST’s multichain compatibility, which was to be implemented later in the development stage, has been precociously activated in the state to integrate into the mainnet. These test transactions make it possible to assess the performance of a given system prior to going live. The Wyoming Stable Token Act was proposed in February of 2022 and laid the foundation for the state-issued stablecoin. The legislation required that the coin be linked to the US dollar and be redeemable for legal tender money. After the law was passed in March 2023, technical experts, accountants, and auditors formed the development team to manage the stablecoin’s generation and issuance. As the initiative advanced, the Stable Token Commission recruited industry and government leaders to investigate the use of stablecoins. Although Governor Gordon expected it to go live in Q1 2025 when speaking to an audience at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium in August 2024, the timeline of development has extended beyond the estimates. The stablecoin will be backed up with the U.S. Treasury Bills and repurchase agreements for financial stability purposes. This can be aligned with the growing interest in stablecoins among players in the corporate world and state institutions. Currently, the asset management firm Fidelity Investments is weighing the possibility of its own stablecoin as part of its digital cash plans.
