RESOUNDING VICTORY IN CRYPTO WEEK: U.S. CONGRESS PASSES THREE HISTORIC BILLS 🚨
🚨 RESOUNDING VICTORY IN CRYPTO WEEK: U.S. CONGRESS PASSES THREE HISTORIC BILLS 🚨
In a landmark moment for digital finance, the U.S. House of Representatives has officially passed three pivotal pieces of cryptocurrency legislation, signaling a dramatic shift in the country’s approach to digital assets. This historic legislative push — now dubbed “Crypto Week” — culminates with the GENIUS Act, which is headed to President Donald Trump’s desk for final approval and expected to be signed into law tomorrow.
🔹 A NEW CHAPTER FOR AMERICAN CRYPTO POLICY
The passage of these bills — the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CBDC Act — represents the first comprehensive legislative effort to regulate and define the digital asset space in the United States. Bipartisan support for the GENIUS and CLARITY Acts defied expectations, demonstrating rare political unity around the future of blockchain and crypto innovation.
🧠 The GENIUS Act – Stablecoin Regulation Passes with Strong Bipartisan Support
Vote: 308-122 (102 Democrats in favor)
This bill establishes the first-ever federal regulatory framework for payment stablecoins, a major breakthrough that clarifies compliance standards for issuers and users. By solidifying the role of the U.S. dollar-backed stablecoins, the GENIUS Act aims to bolster American dominance in digital payments and secure U.S. leadership in the evolving global financial system.
Senator Bill Hagerty, the bill's sponsor, stated:
“This legislation will bring our payment system into the 21st century… and make America the crypto capital of the world.”
🔍 The CLARITY Act – Defining Jurisdiction Between SEC and CFTC
Vote: 294-134 (78 Democrats in favor)
The CLARITY Act tackles the long-standing debate over which federal agency has authority over various types of crypto assets. The bill divides oversight between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) based on asset classifications. This long-needed definition will eliminate much of the legal ambiguity plaguing innovators and investors.
🛑 The Anti-CBDC Act – Blocking a U.S. Government Digital Currency
Vote: 219-210 (2 Democrats in favor)
More controversial and partisan than the other two bills, the Anti-CBDC Act prevents the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC). Supporters argue this measure is necessary to protect privacy and individual financial freedom, while critics warn it could hinder future modernization of monetary policy tools.
💬 A BIPARTISAN TURNING POINT
Crypto policy watchers were surprised by the scale of Democratic support — especially on the GENIUS Act, where more than 100 Democrats broke ranks to vote in favor. This marks a shift in the political landscape, where digital asset policy is becoming less partisan and more pragmatic, driven by increasing public interest and institutional adoption.
🇺🇸 THE ROAD AHEAD
The GENIUS Act is now on its way to the White House, where President Trump is expected to sign it into law tomorrow during a formal signing ceremony. This will mark the first major piece of crypto legislation in U.S. history, with implications that could reverberate through markets, startups, and regulatory bodies worldwide.
In addition, the White House has announced it's exploring tax exemptions for small Bitcoin payments, further demonstrating a favorable shift in federal crypto policy.
📌 WHAT THIS MEANS FOR THE CRYPTO INDUSTRY
Regulatory clarity will help U.S.-based crypto firms grow without fear of arbitrary enforcement.
Stablecoin issuers now have a clear path to operate under federal standards, encouraging mainstream adoption.
International confidence in U.S. digital asset leadership may increase, possibly influencing global regulatory alignment.
CBDC concerns are now officially addressed, at least temporarily, solidifying the U.S. preference for private-sector innovation over state-run digital currencies.
🔚 CONCLUSION
With the passage of these three landmark bills, the United States has taken a decisive step toward becoming a global crypto powerhouse — not just through innovation, but through law. As the curtain falls on Crypto Week, the message is clear:
America is open for crypto business.
