BlackRock will debut a GENIUS Act-compliant money market fund for stablecoin reserve custody, providing regulatory-grade solutions to top crypto issuers. The launch marks an institutional shift toward compliance-focused crypto infrastructure.

The initiative arrives as a new US law transforms stablecoin regulations. Major industry players may benefit from improved, transparent custody as compliance rises in importance for digital asset regulation.

Regulation Drives Crypto-Market Change

According to a CNBC report, BlackRock, one of the world’s largest asset managers, is launching a GENIUS Act-compliant money market fund to handle stablecoin reserves. The launch is planned for Thursday.

This effort will streamline how stablecoin firms, including Circle and Tether, manage the reserves backing their dollar-pegged tokens.

The GENIUS Act, signed into US law in July 2025, enforces 1:1 backing of stablecoins with cash or short-term Treasuries and mandates monthly third-party audits, as outlined in the SEC’s official statement. These standards boost operational transparency, increasing demand for institutional-grade solutions among leading stablecoin issuers.

With the stablecoin market now valued at $266 billion and issuers holding over $120 billion in Treasuries, the scale is significant.
