The US House has designated July 14 as 'Crypto Week' to expedite decisions on digital money regulations, including stablecoins and a potential central bank digital currency.
Republicans are aiming to solidify former President Trump's crypto plan before August, focusing on bills like the GENIUS Act that requires stablecoin backing with USD or liquid assets.
Another bill, the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, seeks to clarify regulatory responsibilities between the SEC and CFTC to protect investors and enhance the US market's competitiveness.
Additionally, Majority Whip Tom Emmer proposed a bill to prevent the Federal Reserve from introducing a retail-facing central bank digital currency, citing concerns over privacy and surveillance.
