The U.S. House of Representatives has designated the week starting July 14 as “Crypto Week,” as lawmakers consider three landmark bills: the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, and the Senate’s GENIUS Act, in a comprehensive push to establish the United States as a global leader in digital assets.
Prominent crypto trader and influencer Cas Abbe commented:
“The next few weeks are going to be really bullish for the crypto market.”
What’s on the table during Crypto Week?
Much-needed regulatory clarity for digital assets
During Crypto Week, lawmakers will review the CLARITY Act, a bipartisan bill that aims to end years of regulatory ambiguity by clearly delineating the roles of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in overseeing digital assets.
The Act divides digital assets into three categories: securities, commodities, and stablecoins, assigning the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over “digital commodities” such as Bitcoin, while the SEC retains authority over securities. It also introduces a dual-track registration system, allowing platforms to register with the agency most relevant to their business, and imposes solid anti-fraud and consumer protection measures.
For years, U.S. crypto entrepreneurs have faced a patchwork of conflicting regulations and uncertainty over whether their tokens are securities or commodities. The CLARITY Act’s clear division of oversight between the SEC and CFTC will provide much-needed certainty, encouraging responsible innovation and reducing the risk of regulatory enforcement actions that have stifled growth.
Supporting stablecoins’ integration into mainstream finance
The GENIUS Act was recently passed in the Senate with bipartisan support, establishing the first comprehensive federal framework for payment stablecoins. It defines who can issue stablecoins, sets capital and reserve requirements, and allows both federal and state regulators to supervise issuers. The Act is designed to foster innovation while ensuring consumer protection and maintaining the U.S. dollar’s dominance in digital finance.
The GENIUS Act’s framework for stablecoins gives legitimacy to dollar-backed digital assets, supporting their integration into mainstream finance. By setting clear rules and consumer protections, the U.S. can attract both institutional and retail users, strengthening the dollar’s role in global digital commerce.
Preserving Americans’ financial privacy and autonomy
An Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act would prohibit the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC) directly or indirectly to individuals, addressing widespread concerns about government surveillance and financial privacy. By blocking a U.S. CBDC, the Act aims to preserve Americans’ financial autonomy and prevent the potential overreach seen in other countries.
The Anti-CBDC Act addresses a top concern among crypto advocates: the risk of government surveillance via a state-issued digital currency. By banning a retail CBDC, the U.S. would demonstrate its commitment to privacy, individual sovereignty, and free-market principles.
The legislative package under review during Crypto Week is the culmination of years of hearings, bipartisan negotiations, and industry advocacy, and reflects the maturation of the crypto market and the growing recognition of its economic significance.
