Fox Business’ crypto correspondent on X reported that the G20 chair statement, issued today by U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, mentions digital assets.

Odaily quotes the document as indicating that finance ministers and central bank governors from the world’s 20 largest economies see digital assets as having the potential to support economic growth and have pledged to chart a clear path for responsible innovation.

The statement also calls for improvements to cross-border payments, including longer operating hours for the payment rails used to process large or time-sensitive transactions, broader adoption of the ISO 20022 standard, and simpler procedures for transferring financial services data across borders.

G20 members are awaiting the Financial Stability Board’s findings on the global cross-border impact of stablecoins.
