π¦ Bank of America CEO mulls entering stablecoin business
π€ BoAβs CEO said that pursuing innovative financial technology and maintaining physical branches are central to the bankβs business strategy.
π£Brian Moynihan, the CEO of Bank of America, recently told an audience at the Economic Club of Washington DC that the commercial bank will likely launch a stablecoin if comprehensive legislation is passed in the United States.
- According to Fortune, the CEO told an audience at the Economic Club of Washington DC, βIf they make that legal, we will go into that business.β
π Moynihan added that the bank could offer dollar-backed tokens linked to customer deposit accounts but did not go into greater detail on any potential products.
π Stablecoins are expected to thrive under President Donald Trump's administration as comprehensive regulations are established to use overcollateralized dollar-pegged tokens to extend US dollar dominance in international trade and bring stablecoin firms onshore.

Stablecoin regulations become priority for US lawmakers
- Several stablecoin regulatory bills have been proposed by US lawmakers, including the Lummis-Gillibrand Payment Stablecoin Act, the Clarity for Payment Stablecoins Act of 2024, and the GENIUS stablecoin bill.
π In February 2025, US House Financial Services Committee ranking member Rep. Maxine Waters called for bipartisan regulation on stablecoins.
π The Congresswoman said the stablecoin regulatory bill drafted by former House Financial Services Committee chairman Patrick McHenry in 2024 was preferable to other legislation.
