Liquid Reserve Requirements are regulations that mandate financial entities, including stablecoin issuers, hold a specific amount of highly liquid assets. These reserves ensure the entity can readily meet redemption requests or other short-term liabilities. The purpose is to maintain financial stability and protect consumers. These requirements are essential for the credibility of pegged digital assets.
