ChainCatcher news, according to the Economic Daily, the Financial Supervisory Commission (FSC) of Taiwan plans to propose a draft law for virtual asset service providers (VASP) in June 2025, allowing banks to issue stablecoins for the first time.

FSC Chairman Peng Chin-long stated that stablecoins will serve as a bridge between fiat currency and virtual currency, providing investors with a trading entry point. All stablecoins issued in Taiwan must be approved by the FSC, including requirements for issuance qualifications and reserves. This policy will be coordinated with the central bank to clarify the distinction from CBDC and assess the application of stablecoins in the real economy.
