The US Director of Digital Assets has declared that this will be a huge week for crypto, underscoring Washington’s drive to establish the United States as the global center of digital asset innovation.
A decisive legislative push: “Crypto Week” begins
Congress is preparing for what many are calling Crypto Week, with debates and potential votes on three landmark bills that could reshape the financial landscape:
- GENIUS Act, which would allow major private companies like Walmart and Amazon to issue fully-backed stablecoins.
- Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act), designed to finally settle whether the SEC or the CFTC will primarily oversee cryptocurrencies and digital asset markets.
- Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, aimed at prohibiting the Federal Reserve from launching a central bank digital currency.
These efforts align with previous Senate approvals and echo promises by President Trump that the United States will become the undisputed leader in digital assets.
Markets react ahead of votes
Bitcoin surged past 118,000 dollars, reaching new all-time highs. Shares of crypto-related companies, including miners and large holders like MicroStrategy, also climbed on the news. Analysts believe optimism over these bills is driving fresh capital into the market, though they caution that such momentum could bring sharper volatility as legislative details are finalized.
Why this matters for the US and global crypto
Regulatory certainty unlocks institutional investment, paving the way for trillions in assets to flow confidently into crypto markets. Companies like Amazon and Walmart may soon have the regulatory green light to launch their own stablecoins, potentially transforming global payment systems. These moves aim to position the US not just as the largest traditional capital market, but also as the epicenter of digital asset adoption and innovation.
Looking ahead
The House is expected to vote on these bills within days. With strong Senate backing already in place for the GENIUS Act and vocal support from the President, the path to enactment appears clear.
This could be the moment the United States officially steps into the role of global crypto capital, setting the pace for regulation, innovation and mainstream adoption worldwide.
