U.S. House Poised to Pass Key Crypto Legislation This Week
Republican Congressman French Hill has confirmed the House of Representatives secured sufficient votes to advance three pivotal digital asset bills this week. The legislative package includes the GENIUS Act, CLARITY Act, and Anti-CBDC legislation - all previously stalled by Democratic opposition.
Despite unified resistance from 210 Democrats in earlier voting, House leadership has regrouped to push through the measures individually. The CLARITY Act faces floor consideration today, with the GENIUS Act following tomorrow. Speaker Mike Johnson is personally overseeing the strategic reintroduction of these bills.
Market participants view this development as a potential watershed moment for regulatory clarity. The GENIUS Act's provisions for innovation-friendly frameworks could particularly benefit blockchain infrastructure projects, while the Anti-CBDC bill addresses growing concerns about centralized digital currencies.
