GENIUS Act Passes the House: A Defining Moment for U.S. Crypto Policy
Praised by SEC Chairman Paul S. Atkins in an official statement, the GENIUS Act reflects years of bipartisan effort to create a coherent legal framework for crypto asset innovation in the United States. The bill’s passage represents more than regulatory progress—it is a signal that U.S. policy is beginning to shift from enforcement-by-default to regulation-by-design.
The GENIUS Act: A Long Overdue Framework for Blockchain-Era Banking
The recent Senate vote to advance the GENIUS Act—a bipartisan bill to regulate stablecoins—is more than just another milestone in crypto policy. It represents a long-overdue recognition that fiat-backed digital dollars are not speculative assets; they are infrastructure.
At Anderson P.C., we strongly support the GENIUS Act and believe it lays the foundation for a safer, more credible, and ultimately more competitive U.S. digital economy.
