House Republicans promoted this week as the latest step for the U.S. to become the “crypto capital of the world.”
The US crypto industry is celebrating as Congress passed three major bills in its “Crypto Week” legislative bonanza.
The House is considering three bills that would regulate digital currencies. The first, the GENIUS Act, is expected to quickly pass and head to President Donald Trump's desk by Friday.
The GENUIS Act, a stablecoin bill, has already passed the Senate and looks set to become the first standalone crypto measure signed into law. The market structure package called the CLARITY Act could be held up as Democrats have concerns about President Trump's growing crypto empire.
President Donald Trump wished everyone a "Happy Crypto Week" on Truth Social on July 15. The House will soon vote on the GENIUS bill to make America the "UNDISPUTED, NUMBER ONE LEADER" in crypto assets.

The crypto super PACs, though, have signaled that the vote breakdown on the broader bill, led by House Financial Services Chair French Hill (R-Ark.), will be their primary consideration as they weigh how to deploy their 2026 haul. The group spent more than $30 million benefiting House Democrats during the last campaign.
The crypto industry will take a step closer to going mainstream this week as a series of industry-friendly bills progress through Congress, paving the way for digital assets to potentially be further integrated into traditional finance.
