According to The Block, in response to JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon's recent comments on stablecoin yields, White House digital asset advisor Patrick Witt offered a rebuttal.

Dimon previously stated that platforms paying stablecoin yields should be regulated like banks, as "holding balances and paying interest" constitutes banking. Witt responded on the X platform, claiming that Dimon's statement is misleading.

He pointed out that it is not the payment of yield on balances that requires bank-like regulation, but rather the lending or re-collateralization of the dollars that make up the underlying balances. The GENIUS Act explicitly prohibits stablecoin issuers from engaging in the latter, so stablecoin balances should not be equated with bank deposits.
