Session focus

The roundtable examined implications of the US GENIUS Act, the product roadmaps forming around regulated stablecoins, and the conditions required for useful regional adoption.

  • How regulation changes issuer and distributor incentives
  • Where compliance belongs in the product stack
  • How stablecoins interact with banking and payment rails
  • Which regional use cases can create durable demand

Rezo's perspective

Rezo Shmertz participated as a founder, investor, and digital-markets operator. The discussion connected policy with product reality: stablecoins become infrastructure when users can access them through trustworthy rails and when institutions can understand the operational and regulatory responsibility behind them.
