ChainCatcher news, according to Business Wire, the Bahamas Securities Commission announced that the "Digital Assets and Registered Exchanges Act 2024" (DARE 2024) has been passed by the Bahamas Parliament and has become law. This bill builds on the 2020 DARE Act and introduces comprehensive reforms aimed at addressing the evolving landscape of digital assets and cryptocurrency markets.

It is reported that the new law covers a broader range of digital asset activities, including advisory management services, digital asset derivatives, and investment services. The new law incorporates provisions related to digital asset custody and introduces the first disclosure system for digital asset staking. DARE 2024 also provides a clear definition for stablecoins, stipulating the registration of existing stablecoins and acceptable forms of reserve assets, while establishing new requirements for the custody, segregation, reporting, and redemption of reserve assets. The issuance of algorithmic stablecoins is explicitly prohibited.
