LATEST: White House’s David Sacks Says Stablecoin Bill Unlocks Trillions for U.S. Treasury

White House support for stablecoin regulation is gaining momentum as Trump advisor David Sacks says it could unleash trillions in U.S. Treasury demand almost overnight. The GENIUS Act recently cleared a key Senate hurdle with support from 66 senators including 15 Democrats.

Sacks called the bill a major win for the U.S. economy saying over $200 billion in stablecoins already exist but lack regulation. He believes legal clarity will drive massive capital into U.S. Treasuries and create a modern payment system that is cheaper faster and more efficient. The GENIUS Act aims to regulate dollar-backed digital currencies under federal oversight.

Despite strong support critics point to Trump’s financial ties to the crypto sector. His family backs World Liberty Financial which launched a stablecoin called USD1 backed by Treasuries and dollar deposits. Sacks did not address questions about conflicts of interest but stressed that stablecoins offer a powerful economic opportunity if properly regulated.
