According to @jchervinsky, the GENIUS bill will not take effect for roughly 14 months and regulators will define who qualifies as an issuer through rulemaking, so there is currently no such thing as being GENIUS compliant (source: @jchervinsky on X, Sep 11, 2025). He also states that Bridge and other projects will have ample time to meet requirements, indicating no immediate compliance obligations under GENIUS for crypto platforms and token projects (source: @jchervinsky on X, Sep 11, 2025). For traders, this timeline reduces near-term regulatory implementation risk tied to GENIUS and shifts focus to monitoring forthcoming rulemaking that will determine issuer scope and compliance pathways (source: @jchervinsky on X, Sep 11, 2025).

According to dYdX Foundation, the community has successfully passed a vote to end support for the wethDYDX Smart Contract, also known as the Bridge, by June 2025. This decision marks a significant change in the dYdX ecosystem, potentially impacting traders who utilize this contract for their transactions. As the support is set to cease, traders might need to adjust their strategies accordingly before the deadline.
