The unprecedented scale of potential deposit migration ($6.6T) represents the first quantified threat to traditional banking sovereignty. This Treasury-acknowledged disruption could shift monetary control from federal banks to private stablecoin issuers at a scale never before possible, creating a parallel financial system outside traditional banking oversight.
US Banks Face $6.6T Stablecoin Exodus After GENIUS Act Passes
📰 What Happened
The U.S. House passed the GENIUS Act with a 308-122 vote, establishing legal framework for stablecoins. A Treasury Department report warns banks could lose up to $6.6 trillion in deposits to stablecoins. Despite the Act banning direct interest payments, companies like Coinbase already offer 4.10% rewards on USDC holdings through alternative mechanisms. The legislation's signing marks a pivotal shift in U.S. digital currency regulation and traditional banking.
📖 Prophetic Significance
The GENIUS Act's formalization of a $6.6T parallel financial system aligns with prophetic expectations of a controlled economic system. The 4.10% USDC rewards program demonstrates how private entities can circumvent traditional banking restrictions, potentially creating the infrastructure for a unified digital currency system. The Treasury Department's explicit warning about deposit outflows suggests government awareness of losing monetary control - a necessary precursor to the prophesied global economic system of Revelation 13. This legislation specifically enables private companies to build the technical and regulatory framework needed for worldwide financial control.
