Florida Senate passes state-level stablecoin bill, awaits DeSantis’ signature
SB 314 expands Florida’s money services law to cover stablecoins, requiring issuer compliance with existing regulations while banning unlicensed issuance.
Florida lawmakers have approved a state-level framework regulating payment stablecoins, moving the legislation to Governor Ron DeSantis’ desk for final approval.
In a Friday post on X, Samuel Armes, founder of the Florida Blockchain Business Association, revealed that Senate Bill 314 has cleared the Florida Senate unanimously. The measure is set to become law once signed by DeSantis, which Armes expects within the next month.
“It has now passed the Senate and the House, and will be signed by DeSantis within the next 30 days!” he wrote on X.
