3 articles · Updated · CoinDesk · Jun 16

Summary

  • State Street on Tuesday introduced a government money market fund built for stablecoin issuers, targeting reserves that back digital dollars under the GENIUS Act framework.
  • The new fund aims to capture a fast-growing fee pool as stablecoin issuers park backing assets in Treasury bills, cash and money market funds.
  • Anchorage Digital and State Street Bank and Trust are the fund’s initial investors, while BlackRock, Franklin Templeton, Fidelity and JPMorgan are also expanding reserve-management and tokenized-cash offerings.
  • Circle’s USDC alone has about $75 billion in backing assets managed largely through BlackRock, and Tether and Circle together already hold tens of billions in Treasury-related assets.
  • State Street said global stablecoin issuance could grow to $1.9 trillion-$4 trillion by 2030, reinforcing its broader push into tokenized liquidity, onchain cash management and digital-asset settlement.
