Automation is creeping into workplaces faster than ever, and not all jobs are built to survive the shift. A recent analysis by WillRobotTakeMyJob ranks 100 occupations that face the greatest risk of being replaced by machines, alongside 100 that appear safer, at least for now. The study uses machine learning models trained on U.S. Department of Labor data to estimate how likely a job is to be automated based on the skills, knowledge, and complexity it demands. The results don't just show who might be vulnerable, but also who’s likely to keep a human edge in the age of artificial intelligence. Where Automation Hits Hardest Jobs that repeat the same steps each day, rely on limited decision-making, or involve manual labor in structured environments have the highest odds of being automated. Many of the top-ranked high-risk jobs involve physical tasks or simple data handling. Refuse and Recyclable Material Collectors top the list with a 100% risk score. They earn around $45,760 and face slow job growth. Packers and Packagers earn even less , roughly $34,800, and also hold a perfect risk rating. Like many warehouse roles, their work is predictable and easy to program. Machine Feeders, Offbearers, and Freight Laborers also fall into this category. They’re already being replaced by robotics in factories and fulfillment centers. Other occupations flagged include dredge operators , billing clerks , shoe machine operators , and title examiners . These roles typically carry lower wages, ranging between $35,000 and $55,000, and have little demand for personal judgment or creative thinking. Even jobs that once seemed secure, like credit analysts and customer service reps , now face high exposure. AI can quickly learn patterns in credit risk or handle scripted client queries, often more efficiently than a person can. # Occupation Risk level Job score Risk level (voted) Median wage (USD)

Technology isn't just changing the way these roles are done, it's starting to phase them out. The Safer Side of the Job Market On the flip side, some careers look far less vulnerable. Jobs that involve empathy, creative reasoning, or high-level strategy are proving harder for machines to replicate. Anthropologists and Archeologists are at the very bottom of the automation risk list, showing a 0% risk. Their work depends heavily on interpretation, deep context, and cultural insight. Emergency Management Directors also rank as safe. These professionals coordinate complex responses to disasters, which demand leadership, timing, and judgment. Security Managers, education administrators, and occupational therapists all show no risk of being automated, largely because their work hinges on decision-making and human interaction. Medical professionals appear repeatedly throughout the low-risk list. Roles like internal medicine physicians , speech-language pathologists , and clinical psychologists not only involve personal care but require careful assessments that can’t be replicated with code. Median wages for these roles are significantly higher, often exceeding $90,000 or even $200,000 in physician roles. . # Occupation Risk level Job score Risk level (voted) Median wage (USD) Projected

What the Model Looks At The risk scores came from a model trained using job data from O*NET, a database maintained by the U.S. Department of Labor. The model evaluated more than just job titles. It looked at dozens of traits per role, things like originality, manual precision, persuasion, scheduling, and social awareness. These attributes were measured both in terms of importance and level of difficulty. Jobs that demand higher levels of abstract thinking, creative solutions, and interpersonal awareness were less likely to be marked as automatable. In contrast, tasks with fixed outcomes and clear inputs were labeled as easy targets. The developers behind WillRobotTakeMyJob also factored in user feedback and manually labeled edge cases. The final scores came from a regression model, which had a high predictive accuracy of over 91%. Lessons for the Working World For workers, the list isn’t meant to cause panic. But it should raise a flag. If your role sits high on the risk chart, it might be time to rethink what you bring to the table. Learning new skills, cross-training, or moving into roles that require more thinking and less repetition could help with long-term career survival. It’s also worth watching how companies use automation. Some may swap out workers for cost savings, while others might keep people in place but shift them into oversight, coordination, or technical roles. Jobs won’t vanish overnight, but the nature of how we work is already starting to tilt. A Look Ahead If there's one message from this data, it's that no job is guaranteed forever. But the ones that thrive will be those that keep people at the center, jobs that lean on our ability to think, connect, and adapt. Whether you’re packing boxes or planning evacuations, the best way to stay ahead of the machines is to keep doing what they can’t. Read next: Can AI Argue Better Than You? New Study Suggests It Might

When it comes to artificial intelligence, many parents find themselves torn between two fears: what the technology might do to their children, and what might happen if their children fall behind by not using it. "It's really hard to predict anything over five years," said Adam Tal, an Israeli marketing executive and father of two boys, ages seven and nine. Tal is "very worried" about the world AI will shape, from deepfakes to blurred lines between reality and artificial content, and a long list of "new threats" he admits he isn’t prepared to recognize. A growing concern Mike Brooks, a psychologist in Austin, Texas, who focuses on parenting and tech, says many parents simply don’t want to deal with AI. "They're already overwhelmed with parenting demands," he said, including online dangers, screen addiction, and the basic challenge of getting kids to “engage with the real world.” Others feel the time to shield kids from AI has already passed. "We’ve already gone too far," said Marc Watkins, a professor at the University of Mississippi who studies AI in education. Trying to keep up Still, some parents are trying to take control of how their children experience AI. Melissa Franklin, a law student in Kentucky and mother of a seven-year-old, says she's one of the only people in her circle exploring the tools with her child. "I don't understand the technology behind AI," she admits. "But I know it's inevitable, and I'd rather give my son a head start than leave him overwhelmed." Franklin only allows supervised use, helping her son find answers “we can’t get from a book, Google, or YouTube.” She believes AI should support, not replace, critical thinking. A mixed picture There’s little scientific consensus on AI’s cognitive impact. One recent MIT study, cited by several parents, found brain activity and memory improved when people solved problems without AI assistance. "I'm afraid it will become a shortcut," said a father of three who asked to remain anonymous. He now wants his kids to use AI only to deepen understanding, not replace it. Adam Tal, the Israeli father, says he’s holding off on AI use for his young sons for now. Technology gap Even among tech-savvy families, there’s concern that AI could deepen educational inequality. Watkins, the Mississippi professor, warns of AI becoming a tool "only if you can afford it," giving wealthy families another leg up. One father, a computer engineer whose 15-year-old son already uses AI, acknowledged the advantage. “My son has an edge not because we know more about AI,” he said, “but because we’re more affluent than average.” He also doesn’t expect kids to learn AI from their parents: “That would be like claiming that kids learn how to use TikTok from their parents. It’s the other way around.” Talk and listen Despite his concerns, Watkins says the worst move parents can make is to ignore the issue. He encourages reading up and having direct conversations with children. “They’re going to use artificial intelligence,” he said. “So I want them to know the potential benefits and risks.” AI chip giant Nvidia’s CEO, Jensen Huang, has called AI “the greatest equalization force” in education. But Watkins isn’t convinced. “What worries me is that it won’t level the playing field,” he said. “It’ll just sharpen the divide.”
Universities in the United States continue to lead the 2025 global research rankings. Harvard University secured the top spot, maintaining its edge in research volume, citation impact, and academic reach. Other U.S. institutions followed closely, including MIT, Stanford, and several University of California campuses. The presence of Berkeley, San Diego, San Francisco, and Los Angeles reflects the system’s consistent output across disciplines. Johns Hopkins, Yale, Princeton, and Columbia also stayed in strong positions, backed by broad academic programs and long-standing research funding. Their place in the rankings reflects a steady rhythm of publication and collaboration, rather than sudden shifts. UK and European Universities Hold Ground Universities in the United Kingdom performed steadily, though fewer in number. Oxford and Cambridge remained in the top five. Both have sustained their global visibility through consistent publication impact and subject diversity. Imperial College London and King’s College London also kept their places, supported by research links across Europe and beyond. Also read: Which Jobs Face the Highest Risk of Automation, and Which Ones Are Likely Safe? Elsewhere in Europe, ETH Zurich led among continental institutions. It stood out as the only non-English speaking university within the top ten. Amsterdam’s leading public university also made a visible mark. Outside these names, European entries were fewer, but those that did rank high tended to do so on strength in specialized fields. Asia’s Academic Climb Gains Pace Asian universities continued to climb. China’s Tsinghua and Peking University made strong appearances. Their rise has been tied to growth in research investment and international attention. Singapore’s National University and Nanyang Technological University remained competitive, backed by stable funding and strategic partnerships. South Korea and Japan also saw moderate representation, although their institutions ranked slightly lower this year. The general trend across Asia suggests a slow but steady push toward stronger international placement. Oceania and Canada Keep Steady Output Australian universities held a familiar pattern. Melbourne and Sydney ranked highest within the region. Both showed strength in medicine, engineering, and environmental science. The University of Queensland and the University of New South Wales followed, with outputs that held steady across research categories. Canada’s University of Toronto remained its highest-ranked institution. It scored well across publication metrics, reputation, and collaboration. McGill and British Columbia continued to perform solidly, especially in life sciences and social policy areas. Methodology Focused on Research Activity The 2025 rankings, by USNews , reviewed over 2,200 institutions across 105 countries. They relied on thirteen indicators related to research, including publication volume, citation strength, and the share of internationally co-authored papers. Results also considered how often a university’s work appeared among the top ten percent of global studies by citation count. Teaching quality, employment outcomes, and student satisfaction were not included in this year’s evaluation. The rankings concentrated solely on research performance, providing a clearer lens into academic influence across borders. Rank University (Country) Global Score 1 Harvard University (U.S.) 100 2 Massachusetts Institute of Technology (U.S.) 97.2 3 Stanford University (U.S.) 94.5 4 University of Oxford (UK) 88.3 5 University of Cambridge (UK) 86.8 6 University of California Berkeley (U.S.) 86.4 7 University College London (UK) 86.2 8 University of Washington Seattle (U.S.) 86.1 9 Yale University (U.S.) 86 10 Columbia University (U.S.) 85.8 11 Imperial College London (UK) 85.2 11 Tsinghua University (China) 85.2 13 University of California Los Angeles (U.S.) 84.9 14 John Hopkins University (U.S.) 84.4 15 University of Pennsylvania (U.S.) 84 16 Cornell University (U.S.) 83.6 16 Princeton University (U.S.) 83.6 16 University of California San Francisco (U.S.) 83.6 16 University of Toronto (Canada) 83.6 20 National University of Singapore (Singapore) 20 21 University of California San Diego (U.S.) 83.2 21 University of Michigan (U.S.) 83.2 23 California Institute of Technology (U.S.) 82.9 24 Northwestern University (U.S.) 81.5 25 Peking University (China) 81.1 26 University of Chicago (U.S.) 81 27 Duke University (U.S.) 80.7 28 Nanyang Technological University (China) 80.6 29 University of Sydney (Australia) 79.9 30 University of Melbourne (Australia) 79.8 31 Washington University (WUSTL) (U.S.) 79.6 32 New York University (U.S.) 79.2 33 University of Amsterdam (Netherlands) 79.1 34 University of New South Wales Sydney (Australia) 79 35 ETH Zurich (Switzerland) 78.9 36 King's College London (UK) 78.7 37 Chinese University of Hong Kong (Hong Kong) 78.5 38 Monash University (Australia) 78.4 39 University of Edinburgh (UK) 78.2 40 Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai (U.S.) 77.5 A Gradual Shift, Not a Shake-Up Although the top positions saw few changes, movement lower in the list pointed to broader shifts. Several institutions from Asia and smaller European countries inched upward. While the overall picture still tilts toward the English-speaking world, others are beginning to close the gap, gradually but persistently. Notes: This post was edited/created using GenAI tools.

OpenAI’s newest experimental model has crossed an unexpected milestone. At this year’s International Math Olympiad (IMO), the system solved five out of six problems, earning a gold-level score typically reserved for elite young mathematicians. It reached 35 out of 42 possible points, placing it within the top 10 percent of over 600 contestants worldwide. The Olympiad, first held in Romania in 1959, is considered one of the toughest math competitions. Students face two exams over two days, each lasting four and a half hours and containing three problems. These questions aren’t just about solving equations, they demand abstract reasoning, creative problem-solving, and a strong grasp of advanced algebra and pre-calculus. AI models have been tested on math before, but usually in lower-stakes settings. Just last year, researchers were using basic arithmetic and high school problems to measure model capability. This performance suggests the bar is now higher. Performance Under Human Conditions OpenAI’s model tackled the same problems as the human contestants, under the same time constraints. According to researchers involved, it showed an unusual ability to focus for long stretches and craft detailed, structured solutions, something that hasn't been easy for previous language models. Unlike DeepMind’s AlphaGeometry, which was built specifically for math, OpenAI’s system is a general-purpose language model. That makes this result more surprising. The model wasn’t tuned to master Olympiad-style problems; instead, it drew on broader training and still kept up. Also read: Can AI Argue Better Than You? New Study Suggests It Might Team members described it as capable of sustained reasoning, working through problems with a level of endurance and logic that pushed past previous benchmarks. According to internal commentary, the model didn’t just recall formulas or mimic surface-level patterns. It built full mathematical arguments, step by step. Predictions That Didn't Hold The result also turned a few expert predictions on their head. Just weeks before the competition, mathematician Terence Tao suggested that AI models might struggle to reach Olympiad standards. On a podcast appearance, he pointed to simpler contests as more realistic short-term targets. Similar doubts had come from other corners of the tech world. In 2024, investor Peter Thiel speculated that models wouldn’t be able to solve problems at this level for at least three more years. That forecast didn’t age well. Still, even with this breakthrough, OpenAI is not rushing to deploy the model publicly. CEO Sam Altman stated that this version won’t be released anytime soon. While upcoming systems like GPT-5 are expected to improve on current capabilities, they won’t feature this level of mathematical reasoning, at least not yet. Reactions from Across the Field The response has been mixed. AI researcher Alexander Wei, who helped lead the work, described the success as a major step toward more general reasoning skills in AI. But not everyone is ready to call it a turning point. Gary Marcus, a long-time critic of AI overhype, acknowledged the performance as impressive. At the same time, he raised questions about how the model was trained, whether the IMO organizers would confirm the results, and what real-world value such systems might bring. He also asked how much it cost to reach this level of performance, and whether that kind of investment could scale. As of now, the Olympiad’s organizers have not independently verified the model’s results. That leaves some room for scrutiny. But even without formal confirmation, the development signals how fast things are moving. A year ago, the idea of an LLM competing at this level seemed far off. Now, it’s suddenly on the scoreboard.

Montana surges into the Top 3. Michigan tumbles 28 spots. And Alaska ranks dead last. Again. Just six months after the last edition, the 2025 Data Security Index reveals dramatic shifts in how U.S. states protect (or fail to protect) their residents’ personal data. This report ranks states by how safe your personal information is, using real-world metrics that impact millions: Cybercrime per capita: How often residents fall victim to digital crimes like identity theft and online fraud Data breaches per capita: How frequently personal data is leaked, stolen, or exposed through hacks or mishandled records Data privacy laws: Whether a state has passed meaningful protections for how your data is collected, stored, and shared These factors are compiled into a Data Safety Score out of 100 , which determines each state’s position. And this year, the changes are anything but subtle. Key Findings Kentucky defends its title as the #1 safest state for your data , with the lowest cybercrime rate and strong laws. Montana jumped from #9 to #2 , after cutting its breach rate by more than half. Maine fell from #43 to #49 , now with the highest data breach rate in the country (1.07 per 100K residents). Alaska now ranks dead last (#50) , with the highest cybercrime rate (914.7 per 100K). Only 16 states score a full 6/6 for privacy laws . Nearly 20 states still have virtually no legal protections (1/6) . Top 10 States for Data Privacy in 2025 Where you’re safest online — and how these states earned their spot. Rank (2025) State Score Rank (2024) Change 1 Kentucky 98.20 1 Same 2 Montana 97.26 9 ▲ 7 3 Tennessee 97.04 3 Same 4 New Jersey 96.72 13 ▲ 9 5 Utah 96.54 7 ▲ 2 6 Iowa 96.48 4 ▼ 2 7 Texas 96.47 10 ▲ 3 8 Minnesota 96.18 11 ▲ 3 9 Virginia 95.52 5 ▼ 4 10 Connecticut 95.31 19 ▲ 9 1. Kentucky 2024 Rank: 1 → 2025 Rank: 1 ( Same ) Kentucky defends its crown for the second year straight, and it’s no fluke. The Bluegrass State has the lowest cybercrime rate in the country (134.4 per 100K residents), barely any reported data breaches (just 0.07 per 100K), and a perfect 6 out of 6 privacy law score . It's the rare case of a state doing everything right — from enforcement to legislation — making it the safest place in America for your personal data. 2. Montana 2024 Rank: 9 → 2025 Rank: 2 ( ▲ 7) Montana made a massive leap into the top 3 this year. What changed? It slashed its breach rate from 0.35 down to just 0.09 per 100K, one of the lowest in the U.S. And with a strong privacy law score of 6, this frontier state is proving that you don’t need to be coastal or high-tech to lead on data protection. A huge turnaround — and a wake-up call for other rural states. 3. Tennessee 2024 Rank: 3 → 2025 Rank: 3 ( Same ) Tennessee holds firm in third place by staying the course. The state cut its breach rate nearly in half — from 0.20 to 0.11 — while keeping a 6/6 privacy law score. Cybercrime rose a bit to 157.9, but remains well below the national average. All in all, a strong year for digital safety in the Volunteer State. 4. New Jersey 2024 Rank: 13 → 2025 Rank: 4 ( ▲ 9) New Jersey was one of the year's biggest climbers. Last year, its high breach rate (0.43) kept it out of the top 10. This year, that number fell to just 0.12 — a major improvement. Combine that with a solid cybercrime rate (165.3) and full legal protections, and you get a state that made privacy a priority — and saw real results. 5. Utah 2024 Rank: 7 → 2025 Rank: 5 ( ▲ 2) Utah climbed two spots thanks to stable data practices. It kept its breach rate impressively low at 0.09, while maintaining a strong privacy law score of 6. Cybercrime did rise to 196.3 per 100K, but Utah still compares favorably with other tech-driven states. The result: a quietly powerful performance. 6. Iowa 2024 Rank: 4 → 2025 Rank: 6 ( ▼ 2) Iowa actually improved in one key area — its breach rate dropped to 0.06 per 100K , the lowest in the country . So why the slip? A rise in cybercrime reports to 221.9 pulled its overall score down slightly. Still, with strong laws and the best breach control in the U.S., Iowa remains a digital safety leader. Also read: Workplace Priorities Are Shifting: Here’s What Skills Matter in 2025 7. Texas 2024 Rank: 10 → 2025 Rank: 7 ( ▲ 3) Texas made measurable gains by cutting its breach rate from 0.26 last year to just 0.09 — a notable improvement for a state of 30 million people. While cybercrime sits at 199.3 per 100K, Texas maintains a full legal framework (6/6), keeping it competitive with other large states like California and Florida. 8. Minnesota 2024 Rank: 11 → 2025 Rank: 8 ( ▲ 3) Minnesota quietly worked its way into the top 10 by keeping things stable and secure. With a cybercrime rate of 159.9 and a breach rate of 0.16, it sits right in the “low risk” zone — and backs it up with a perfect 6/6 privacy law score. It’s not flashy, but it’s effective. 9. Virginia 2024 Rank: 5 → 2025 Rank: 9 ( ▼ 4) Virginia slid four spots this year. The main issue? A steady breach rate (0.15) and rising cybercrime — up to 198.2 per 100K. It still maintains strong laws and better performance than many states, but didn’t improve fast enough to hold its ground as others surged ahead. 10. Connecticut 2024 Rank: 19 → 2025 Rank: 10 ( ▲ 9) Connecticut makes one of the most impressive climbs into the top 10. It lowered its breach rate significantly — from a sky-high 0.69 to 0.22 — and cybercrime stayed relatively contained at 155 per 100K. Add a full set of privacy protections, and this Northeast state has turned things around in just half a year. This is the second year DesignRush has published this ranking. View the 2024 Data Security Index here to see how states have improved (or worsened) since last year. 10 Worst States for Data Privacy in 2025 The places where your personal information is most vulnerable — and why it matters Rank (2025) State Score Rank (2024) Change 50 Alaska 63.08 49 ▼ 1 49 Maine 69.47 43 ▼ 6 48 Wyoming 79.41 35 ▼ 13 47 Arizona 80.05 47 Same 46 Florida 80.46 46 Same 45 South Dakota 80.62 50 ▲ 5 44 Wisconsin 80.99 41 ▼ 3 43 Kansas 80.99 28 ▼ 15 42 Michigan 81.49 14 ▼ 28 41 Massachusetts 81.58 48 ▲ 7 1. Alaska 2024 Rank: 49 → 2025 Rank: 50 ( ▼ 1) Alaska now ranks dead last for data privacy in the U.S. — and it’s not even close. The state’s cybercrime rate skyrocketed to 914.7 per 100K residents , by far the worst in the nation. Even though its breach rate is moderate, Alaska continues to offer minimal legal protection (scoring just 1 out of 6). With no legislative progress and rising criminal activity, it’s the most dangerous state for your digital life. 2. Maine 2024 Rank: 43 → 2025 Rank: 49 ( ▼ 6) Maine has the highest rate of data breaches in the country at 1.07 per 100K — a sharp increase from last year. While cybercrime levels are around average, the combination of widespread leaks and only basic legal safeguards (2 out of 6) leaves residents dangerously exposed. The state is in urgent need of modern privacy legislation. 3. Wyoming 2024 Rank: 35 → 2025 Rank: 48 ( ▼ 13) Wyoming took one of the steepest dives this year, dropping 13 spots. Its cybercrime rate jumped to 234.3 , and privacy laws remain stagnant at the lowest possible score. With no serious updates to its legal framework and growing threat levels, Wyoming is quickly becoming one of the riskiest states to live online. 4. Arizona 2024 Rank: 47 → 2025 Rank: 47 ( Same ) Arizona remains stuck at the bottom. It still has one of the highest cybercrime rates in the nation (265.1 per 100K), and while its breach rate is relatively low (0.09), the state has made no progress on legislation — holding steady at 1 out of 6 . Until that changes, Arizonans remain largely unprotected 5. Florida 2024 Rank: 46 → 2025 Rank: 46 ( Same ) Despite its booming tech economy, Florida continues to underperform on data safety. Cybercrime remains high (223.3 per 100K), and the state has not strengthened its privacy protections at all. With only basic enforcement and a legal score of 1, Florida offers little peace of mind when it comes to personal information. 6. South Dakota 2024 Rank: 50 → 2025 Rank: 45 ( ▲ 5) South Dakota made modest progress this year — its data breach rate dropped from 0.98 to 0.22. But that alone wasn’t enough to move it out of the bottom 10. It still lacks modern privacy legislation and remains vulnerable due to rising cybercrime (140.4 per 100K). Improvement is there, but the foundation is still weak. 7. Wisconsin 2024 Rank: 41 → 2025 Rank: 44 ( ▼ 3) Wisconsin continues its slow slide down the rankings. Its data breach rate is now 0.17 , and cybercrime is holding steady around 161. Still, with no meaningful privacy laws in place, the state has little to protect its residents from data misuse. It’s falling behind the national curve. 8. Kansas 2024 Rank: 28 → 2025 Rank: 43 ( ▼ 15) Kansas suffered a sharp drop this year. Both cybercrime and breach rates ticked up (now at 161.5 and 0.17 respectively), and its privacy law score is still at rock bottom. With no legislative action and increasing digital threats, Kansas went from mid-tier to red-flag territory in just six months. 9. Michigan 2024 Rank: 14 → 2025 Rank: 42 ( ▼ 28) Michigan had the biggest collapse in this year’s rankings. The state dropped a staggering 28 spots after its privacy law score was reduced from 5 to just 1 — a massive policy backslide. While its cybercrime and breach rates didn’t worsen dramatically, the lack of legal support erased earlier gains, leaving residents far more vulnerable than a year ago. 10. Massachusetts 2024 Rank: 48 → 2025 Rank: 41 ( ▲ 7) Massachusetts managed to climb a few spots, thanks mostly to slightly improved enforcement . But its breach rate remains very high (0.45) , and while it has better laws than most bottom-tier states (3 out of 6), they haven’t been enough to reverse course. The state is showing signs of momentum — but it's still far from secure.

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has signed a law to create a regulatory regime for dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies known as stablecoins, a milestone that could pave the way for the digital assets to become an everyday way to make payments and move money. The bill, dubbed the GENIUS Act (Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins Act), passed in the House of Representatives by a vote of 308 to 122, with support from nearly half the Democratic members and most Republicans. It had earlier been approved by the Senate. The law is a huge win for crypto supporters, who have long lobbied for such a regulatory framework in a bid to gain greater legitimacy for an industry that began in 2009 as a digital Wild West famed for its innovation and speculative chaos. “This signing is a massive validation of your hard work and pioneering spirit,” said Trump at a signing event that included dozens of government officials, crypto executives and lawmakers. “It’s good for the dollar and it’s good for the country.” Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, in a statement, said the new technology would buttress the dollar status as the global reserve currency, expand access to the dollar economy and boost demand for US Treasuries, which back stablecoins. Stablecoins are designed to maintain a constant value, usually a 1:1 US dollar peg, and their use has exploded, notably by crypto traders moving funds between tokens. The industry hopes they will enter mainstream use for sending and receiving payments instantly. The new law requires stablecoins to be backed by liquid assets — such as US dollars and short-term Treasury bills — and for issuers to disclose publicly the composition of their reserves .
