EXCLUSIVE: Anthony Scaramucci Predicts 'Acceptance Of Stablecoins' As Digital Dollars With Upcoming Crypto-Friendly Congress

With Congress projected to be the most crypto-supportive in history, Anthony Scaramucci anticipates impactful policy changes that could shape the digital asset industry. In an exclusive interview with Benzinga, Scaramucci outlined potential regulatory shifts, particularly regarding how mature protocols and new token launches may be treated.

Regulatory Developments And Market Impact

According to Scaramucci, the evolving regulatory framework could lead to the designation of established protocols as "decentralized commodities." He believes this classification would bring more clarity and confidence to the market by reducing legal risks. “I think you’ll see most of the mature protocols grandfathered in as decentralized commodities, and thus, all litigation regarding crypto exchanges that play by the rules will be dropped,” Scaramucci said.

While existing exchanges could benefit from reduced regulatory burdens, Scaramucci said new token launches could have repercussions. “New token launches will be more closely scrutinized and regulated,” he explained, highlighting a potential shift towards more stringent oversight to ensure compliance and protect investors.

Stablecoins And Future Of Digital Dollars

Scaramucci also emphasized the role of stablecoins in promoting U.S. dollar dominance in global markets. He suggested that stablecoins could serve as “digital dollars,” supporting international trade and financial transactions without undermining the dollar’s influence.

"I think you will see acceptance of stablecoins as a form of digital dollars that promote, rather than weaken, U.S. dollar dominance globally," he said.

Shaping The Digital Asset Space

These anticipated changes align with Scaramucci's broader outlook on crypto, particularly how regulatory acceptance could encourage mainstream adoption.

His comments come ahead of the Benzinga Future of Digital Assets event, where discussions are expected to address similar topics, including the regulatory environment and crypto's role in the global economy.
