The Fed and Treasury have been considering issuing a central bank digital currency. My bipartisan bill makes clear that they would need congressional approval to mint a CBDC. pic.twitter.com/jKTTtP1YEW

1. Prudential risk
2. Systemic risk
3. Geo-economic

1. Prudential risk, in the form of run risk and payment-system risk. Registration, audit, and disclosure requirements for stablecoin issuers & custodians are the clear and present next steps.

3. Geo-economic. The USD must persist as the global reserve currency. That may not require a CBDC. Thoughtful research & regulation of fintech, sound monetary policy, rule of law, strong capital markets, a growing economy – these are the critical drivers of USD reserve status.

2. Systemic risk. The FSOC should continue to monitor and report on systemic risk from stablecoins, given how fast the industry is growing, but right now it’s modest and does not justify red tape that could lead to regulatory capture of crypto by banks.

This primary crypto regulator should be tech & market-structure neutral, and eventually fulfill 3 mandates:
1. Compel disclosure and transparency
2. Prevent fraud & abuse
3. Promote the efficiency and resilience of the market

The best thing Congress can do to promote Web3 is to designate a primary regulator to audit stablecoins.
