July 18, 2025 — The US House of Representatives has officially passed three major crypto bills, marking a critical step forward for regulation ahead of the August recess.
In a landmark move for crypto legislation, the US House of Representatives passed three Republican-led bills on Thursday. These include the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act, the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins (GENIUS) Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.
Each bill targets a critical aspect of the US crypto landscape defining crypto market structures, regulating stablecoins, and banning a federal CBDC, respectively.
The crypto regulation push aligns with President Donald Trump’s broader digital asset agenda, which includes fostering innovation while rejecting government-controlled digital currencies.
Despite initial delays earlier in the week, Thursday’s votes signaled progress:
The crypto regulation bills received support from nearly 80 House Democrats for the CLARITY Act and over 100 for the GENIUS Act, demonstrating strong bipartisan cooperation. This came after Republicans rallied for full-party support as part of their self-declared “crypto week.”
Tensions surfaced on Wednesday when voting was delayed for hours. Several Republicans demanded a firm clause banning development of a central bank digital currency, delaying the vote on the full package.
While the issue didn’t stop the final passage, it underscored internal divisions even within the Republican ranks regarding the scope of US digital asset policy.
According to reports, President Trump plans to sign the GENIUS Act by Friday, assuming no major amendments are made before it reaches his desk. The bill already passed the Senate in June.
This move would formalize a key part of Trump’s crypto regulation agenda and signal to markets that the US is moving forward with stablecoin oversight.
