"The Federal Reserve" holds a conference on Bitcoin and cryptocurrency payments.



The U.S. Federal Reserve, led by Governor Jerome Powell, is set to make critical decisions regarding cryptocurrencies during the Payments Innovation Conference scheduled for Tuesday, October 21, which will focus on Bitcoin payments and cryptocurrencies, along with exploring ways to integrate blockchain technology into the U.S. financial system.

The conference will be attended by several prominent figures in the fields of cryptocurrency and traditional finance, while investors are eager to see what impacts these discussions may have on the market.

The Federal Reserve announced the conference on September 3rd, as part of its efforts to improve the regulation of the cryptocurrency market in the United States, focusing on how emerging technologies are impacting the global payments landscape.

Christopher J. Waller, a member of the Federal Reserve Board, who will open and close the conference, explained that the aim of the event is to explore how to harness innovation to improve the safety and efficiency of payment systems while keeping pace with the changing needs of consumers and businesses.

The conference sessions will cover a wide range of issues, including linking traditional finance to the digital asset economy, exploring stablecoin business models, integrating artificial intelligence into payment systems, in addition to a main focus dedicated to discussing tokenized financial products.

For the first time, the Federal Reserve is communicating directly and publicly with leaders in the cryptocurrency industry, in a move expected to pave the way for the integration of cryptocurrencies and digital payments into the U.S. financial system.

It is noted that the political reforms launched by the administration of President Donald Trump contributed to the removal of restrictions that limited banks' dealings with digital asset companies. Additionally, the Federal Reserve abolished the oversight program for these institutions and raised flags regarding "reputational risks" that hindered their access to financial services.

After the approval of the Stablecoin Regulation Law (GENIUS) last July, analysts believe that the innovation environment in blockchain technologies has become more vibrant than ever, paving the way for the Federal Conference to be a pivotal moment in the regulatory path for cryptocurrencies in the United States.
