Circle’s Jeremy Allaire Pushes for US Registration of Stablecoin Issuers

According to Circle co-founder, all stablecoin issuers need to obtain US registration status. Jeremy Allaire advocates for US registration of stablecoin issuers as the co-founder of Circle Internet Financial, which issues stablecoins.

The crypto market now focuses intensely on stablecoins as federal legislation about token use stands poised to become one of the first items under consideration by the Trump administration after its second term starts. Senator Bill Hagerty from Tennessee as a Republican sponsor of new legislation launched measures for stablecoins regulation. President Donald Trump pledged to establish America as the leading power in the cryptocurrency industry.

The regulations should not grant automatic approval according to the right principles, Allaire said in a Bloomberg interview . “Where you can just ignore the US law and go do whatever the hell you want wherever and sell into the United States.”

The stablecoin USDC is issued by Circle which operates from New York while Tether Holdings’s subsequent USDT token holds the position of the second largest stablecoin. Tether Holding shifted its main office operations to the country of El Salvador. Stablecoins offer two main benefits to the crypto market: they unite digital currencies with conventional finance systems and they provide protection against wild crypto price swings while enhancing trading operations.

Allaire said consumers need financial integrity protection through these actions. Every company that operates either offshore or from Hong Kong needs US registration when it aims to provide US dollar stablecoins in the United States because it follows regulations similar to other locations.

The Tether media team has not answered our immediate request for statement. During an interview on Tuesday Paolo Ardoino disclosed that some of the leading crypto organizations attempt to shape upcoming US bills to their advantage.

Ardoino expressed his belief that competitors have a direct business objective to eliminate the Tether cryptocurrency. The management of Tether’s reserves is partly conducted by Cantor Fitzgerald which has Howard Lutnick as their former CEO and current US Department of Commerce secretary after Senate confirmation.

By executing the executive order, Trump strengthened US government backing of stablecoin operators including Circle and Tether to develop legitimate dollar-backed stablecoins worldwide during January.
