EU MiCA authorization status and U.S. GENIUS Act implementation-watch signals across assessed stablecoins — sourced to public registers, regulator notices, and issuer disclosures.
How To Read Status
MiCA authorized means the issuer holds an in-effect EMI or credit-institution authorization listed on a competent-authority register. Pending, transitional, non-compliant, and out-of-scope retain the existing MiCA editorial meanings.
GENIUS rows are not compliance approvals. They track source-backed public posture such as issuer-announced intent, regulator-sourced applications, or future PPSI approvals once the regime is operational.

It maps assessed stablecoins to public, sourced regulatory facts. MiCA rows cover EU authorization status, EMT/ART token type, competent authority, issuer entity, and register references. GENIUS rows are implementation-watch signals while the U.S. regime is pre-effective.
The GENIUS Act is enacted, but the general regime is not yet effective. Pharos keeps GENIUS rows in an implementation-watch section until the Act is effective or official regulator approvals can be displayed without implying current compliance.
An e-money token (EMT) references a single official currency. An asset-referenced token (ART) references a basket or other value, such as a multi-currency mix or a commodity. ARTs are rare in the tracked set.
No. The tracker is an informational surface with sourced links, not legal advice. Statuses are editorial assignments against public registers, regulator notices, and issuer disclosures, and may lag real-world authorizations or restrictions.
