The NCUA's first GENIUS Act proposed rule closed its comment period on April 13, 2026. The final implementing regulations are due by July 18, 2026 โ establishing the compliance framework for how credit unions participate in the digital asset economy.
Aetherum was built inside this regulatory perimeter. Our ERC-3643 compliance modules, on-chain KYC/AML attestation, DACS risk assessment model, and BitGo institutional custody architecture are designed to operate within NCUA supervision โ not around it.
Three things the GENIUS Act framework confirms about how Aetherum is built:
Credit unions keep 100% of loan interest income.
