US House Designates ‘Crypto Week’ to Consider Three Sweeping Reforms – End of Regulatory Fog?

2025/07/04 11:45

The US House GOP has announced the week of July 14 as “Crypto Week” to push three key crypto bills. Lawmakers will consider the CLARITY Act, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, and the Senate’s GENIUS Act, to be brought to a vote.

House Speaker Mike Johnson, Financial Services Committee Chair French Hill, and Agriculture Committee Chair GT Thompson announced the move Thursday. The move arrives following the passage of President Donald Trump’s ‘Big Beautiful Bill.’

The US lawmakers noted that the mid-July review will create a clear regulatory framework for digital assets, protect financial privacy and foster the country’s position as a global crypto leader.

“House Republicans are taking decisive steps to deliver the full scope of President Trump’s digital assets and cryptocurrency agenda,” Speaker Mike Johnson said in a statement.

Here’s What the Legislation Package Aims to Address

Legislators called the move a “historic” opportunity for the US to deliver a clear, pro-innovation framework for crypto.

The package of legislation would address issues such as stablecoin oversight, crypto market rules, and permanently banning the creation of a US CBDC. The effort reflects years of bipartisan work and aligns with President Trump’s pro-crypto agenda.

The CLARITY Act, which passed through the House panel with a 47-6 vote last month, would set clear lines between crypto commodities and securities. The bill would drive regulatory certainty and possibly invite more institutional players.

Besides, the stablecoin bill GENIUS Act, will be the top priority during the Crypto Week. The Senate already approved the bill last month in a 68-30 vote.

The House had previously pushed its own version of stablecoin legislation dubbed the STABLE Act. However, lawmakers are turning to the Senate’s GENIUS Act version.

Further, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act would block the creation of a federal digital dollar. The bill already passed out of the US House Financial Services Committee with a 27-22 vote in April.

Crypto Week – A Pathway to Clear Regulation?

According to Majority Leader Steve Scalise, these pieces of legislation not only further the President’s pro-growth agenda, but provide a clear regulatory framework for digital assets.

Rep. Tom Emmer, a leading crypto advocate, said that America is one step closer to having clarity in digital assets. Passing of these bills will defend financial privacy and reinforce U.S. dominance in crypto innovation, he added.

“A new day for American excellence has finally arrived, and now it’s time to get the job done.”

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, SBF’s Former Jailmate, Acquitted On Most Serious Charges

Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs, the one-time cellmate of FTX fraudster Sam Bankman-Fried, was acquitted of the most serious charges against him in Manhattan federal court on Wednesday. ‘Diddy’ Acquitted on Some Charges in High-Profile Trial According to reports, Combs was found not guilty of racketeering and sex trafficking charges brought against him by federal prosecutors on July 2. However, the rapper-turned-mogul was found guilty of prostitution-related charges tied to his ex-girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. Update 3: Cassie Ventura's lawyer Doug Wignor has written in opposing bail, "Ms. Ventura believes that Mr. Combs is likely to pose a danger to the victims who testified in this case, including herself, as well as to the community." Hearing 5 pm https://t.co/HJPH1X7I8H pic.twitter.com/QpfjPz6KXW — Inner City Press (@innercitypress) July 2, 2025 While the charges carry a maximum of 10 years in prison, NBC News reports that prosecutors will push for less than that. Jail time is based mainly on sentencing guidelines and is at the discretion of the federal judge overseeing the case. Sam Bankman-Fried Faces the Music Combs has been held at Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) in New York City, where he previously lived in the same prison block as former crypto kingpin Sam Bankman-Fried. According to a September 2024 report from NBC News, sources claimed Bankman-Fried and Combs were being held in a “barrack-style area” that housed no more than 20 inmates who may have required “special detention” due to their high-profile status. MDC is known for heightened violence and poor conditions, with several stabbings taking place just last year. In one instance cited by U.S. District Judge Gary R. Brown , MDC inmates have regularly dealt with delayed medical care, aging infrastructure, and “frequent lockdowns due to violence.” However, with federal prison time already under Combs’ belt, the rapper’s legal defense is set to push for no more time served. Bankman-Fried, meanwhile, is continuing his sentence at Terminal Island FCI in his home state of California after a recent interview conducted from his cell at MDC. The former “king of crypto” is serving 25 years for orchestrating a massive digital asset scheme that saw over $8 billion worth of customer funds stolen.
