One such example of the endogenous collateral stablecoin is the TerraClassicUSD (USTC). The token is algorithmic and is co-dependent on its sister coin TerraClassic (LUNC). On May 22, the token had a drastic fall with a loss of $40 B, attaining its ATL of $0.006218.
Draft for Stablecoin Regulation
Chairwomen Maxine Waters and Ranking Member Patrick McHenry, of the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services, head the drafting committee to put on strict regulation over both banking and non-banking issued stablecoins.
The draft also has guidelines for the obligatory study of the algorithmic stablecoins through the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve. With the inclusion of other significant government bodies such as the SEC, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), and the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation.
The banks who wish to issue stablecoin should get approval from the OCC. Similarly, the non-banks have to meet the Fed’s standards after getting state-level approval within 180-days periods.
