Implementing the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act for the Issuance of Stablecoins by Entities Subject to the Jurisdiction of the National Credit Union Administration

The NCUA Board (Board) is seeking comment on proposed regulations to implement portions of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins Act (GENIUS Act). The GENIUS Act charges the NCUA with licensing, regulating, and supervising Payment Stablecoin issuers that are subsidiaries of federally insured credit unions (FICU subsidiaries). In February 2026, the NCUA issued proposed regulations to govern investments in and licensing of permitted payment stablecoin issuers subject to the NCUA's jurisdiction. This current proposal supplements the previous proposal and would govern the issuance of Payment Stablecoins and certain related activities by entities subject to the NCUA's jurisdiction. This proposal would also make amendments to address share insurance coverage, tokenized shares, and other conforming and clarifying amendments.
