This setback highlights the growing tensions within the Republican Party regarding the administration's relations with cryptocurrencies ๐ .
This failure comes amid high stakes โ ๏ธ, as Trump hailed the "GENIUS" bill as a turning point ๐ in a morning post on "Truth Social".
He wrote: "The House will soon vote on a massive bill to make America the undisputed leader in digital assets" ๐บ๐ธ, urging all Republicans to vote yes ๐.
He praised the bill, considering it places the United States "light-years ahead of China, Europe, and all other countries" ๐, putting digital assets at the heart of its future ๐.
