U.S. Congress just circled the week of July 14 and slapped “Crypto Week” on it. Crypto Week will be a week-long U.S. holiday. God bless America. *claps* The House will spend the week debating three bills that could reshape crypto regulation and whether the U.S. still wants to be a serious player in crypto innovation. If passed, they could finally give the industry the framework it’s been begging for. Meanwhile, a new crypto presale is making headway and could skyrocket during Crypto Week. BitcoinPriceMarket CapBTC$2.16T24h7d30d1yAll time DISCOVER: Best New Cryptocurrencies to Invest in 2025 US Crypto Week: CLARITY Act Brings Long-Awaited Regulatory Certainty Washington is finally trying to stop playing Calvinball with crypto law. The CLARITY Act proposes a simple fix to carve digital assets into three categories: commodities, securities, and stablecoins, and assign each to the right agency. It’s a strategy meant to kill the ambiguity that’s made the U.S. a regulatory minefield for crypto firms. For instance, BTC ▲0.19%, classified as a “digital commodity,” would come under the CFTC’s jurisdiction, while tokens resembling traditional securities would remain with the SEC. Additionally, a dual-track registration system is set to provide more flexibility for crypto platforms to register with the relevant agency. GENIUS Act Caters to Stablecoin Innovation Passed by the Senate, the GENIUS Act is set to bring stablecoins under federal command. It sets the ground rules for who can mint them, how they’re backed, and what oversight looks like when things go sideways. The upshot is:
Ahead of an important week for digital assets legislation, Stand With Crypto (SWC) and over 60 other industry firms sent a letter urging House lawmakers to champion clear regulations for the industry and unlock its potential. Industry Coalition Pushes For CLARITY Act Approval On Monday, advocacy group Stand With Crypto, alongside 65 other firms and groups, sent a letter to the US House of Representatives urging lawmakers to support the bipartisan Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act of 2025 as the US approaches a “pivotal crossroad.” The industry coalition argued that digital assets continue to reshape the global economy, despite some efforts to “politicize crypto legislation,” adding that the US risks falling behind unless pro-crypto policies that fully embrace blockchain technology are quickly adopted. There are already signs of U.S. crypto leadership slipping. We cannot afford to let inaction and uncertainty jeopardize our ability to secure Americaʼs economic future. Above all else the U.S. crypto industry needs market structure — which ensures there are clear rules of the road and provides the regulatory clarity that developers, users, and advocates need to continue innovating. The letter explains that digital assets are “providing a foundation for a more inclusive, transparent, and secure digital economy,” and “opening doors for economic opportunity, innovation, and financial empowerment on a scale weʼve never seen before.” As such, crypto developers require clear guidance and safeguards to continue building blockchain systems, with standards for transparency, security, and accountability, and where users can control their digital assets. The lack of standardized rules has hindered institutional adoption, innovation, and pushed talent and businesses to more industry-friendly jurisdictions outside the US. Nonetheless, passing the long-awaited market structure bill would address these issues, the crypto coalition argues. House Lawmakers Prepare For ‘Crypto Week’ Notably, SWC’s letter comes ahead of the highly anticipated “Crypto Week,” which will see the review of three key legislations during the week of July 14 to 18, including the GENIUS Act and CLARITY Act. As reported by Bitcoinist, House Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill, House Agriculture Committee Chair Glenn Thompson, and Speaker Mike Johnson announced the upcoming discussion on rules on stablecoins, market structure, and central bank digital currency as part of Congress’s efforts to make America the crypto capital of the world. Chairman Thompson affirmed that “it will soon be time for the House to deliver for the American people and send CLARITY to the Senate. I thank House Leadership for recognizing the urgent need for CLARITY to cement American leadership in the digital asset space.” The bipartisan bill was introduced on May 29 by Chairman Hill, aiming to establish a regulatory framework for crypto assets and provide the long-awaited clarity and protection for the industry. If passed, the legislation will assign clear roles and responsibilities to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which would “not only enable and empower developers to innovate, but also protect consumers through choice, foster greater participation in the blockchain economy, and strengthen national security.” Nearly a month ago, the bill passed its two committee markups, but it still needs to pass the full House vote and the Senate before heading to President Donald Trump’s desk. However, its path to approval has been uncertain, as House Democrats have heavily criticized the bill, and some lawmakers have pushed to merge it with the GENIUS Act, making next week’s debate a pivotal moment for the legislation.
The U.S. House is declaring the week of July 14th as “Crypto Week,” as three major crypto-related acts will be considered by Congress.
According to a new announcement from the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services, the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act and the Senate’s GENIUS Act will all be considered by Congress during Crypto Week.
Says U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Chairman French Hill,
“We are taking historic steps to ensure the United States remains the world’s leader in innovation and I look forward to ‘Crypto Week’ in the House. After years of dedicated work in Congress on digital assets, we are advancing landmark legislation to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets that safeguards consumers and investors, provides rules for the issuance and operation of dollar-backed payment stablecoins, and permanently blocks the creation of a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) to safeguard Americans’ financial privacy.
I thank my colleagues in Congress and the Trump Administration for their partnership and leadership and stand ready to work alongside the Senate as they work to advance standalone market structure legislation by the end of September.”
Added Speaker of the House Mike Johnson,
“House Republicans are taking decisive steps to deliver the full scope of President Trump’s digital assets and cryptocurrency agenda.
During ‘Crypto Week,’ the House looks forward to the timely consideration of three landmark pieces of legislation: the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, and the Senate’s GENIUS Act. I commend the close partnership between the Financial Services and Agriculture Committees and the leadership of Chairmen French Hill and GT Thompson, and I look forward to President Trump signing them into law.”
