Scott Melker: Canada’s draft stablecoin rules resemble GENIUS Act approach
Canada stablecoin rules mirror GENIUS Act

Canada has opened a consultation on draft rules for stablecoins, maintaining a ban on yield while allowing transaction rewards, a framework that Scott Melker says closely mirrors the GENIUS Act. Melker, identified as Owner and Content Creator, pointed out the similarities between Canada’s approach and the GENIUS Act in a recent statement.

Melker has previously commented on delays in lending code updates for Ripple’s XRP Ledger after validator support fell below the threshold, pushing the timeline to November 4 here. He also noted Aviva Investors’ launch of a tokenized share class for its £22B sterling fund on the XRP Ledger here. Both developments reflect his ongoing coverage of regulatory and technical changes in digital assets.
