US House Passes Landmark Crypto Legislation in Bipartisan Votes

The US House of Representatives delivered a watershed moment for digital asset regulation, passing three key bills during what Republicans branded 'crypto week.' The GENIUS Act, having cleared the Senate in June, now heads directly to President Trump's desk. Meanwhile, the CLARITY Act moves to the Senate after securing 294 votes, including support from nearly 80 Democrats.

Market structure clarity took center stage as lawmakers rushed to meet an August deadline set by the administration. The Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act faced stiffer opposition, passing narrowly with 219 votes. Its future may hinge on attachment to must-pass defense legislation.

Speaker Mike Johnson hailed the votes as fulfilling President Trump's vision to cement crypto as an economic pillar. The strong bipartisan showing—particularly the GENIUS Act's 308-122 margin—signals shifting political winds for digital asset policy.
