How GENIUS ACT squeaked through - despite Trump's impotent 'crypto council'
Briefly

The GENIUS Act, a pivotal piece of legislation for the crypto industry, has cleared a key procedural hurdle in the Senate. Led by Sen. Bill Hagerty, the act aims to create clear rules for stablecoins, critical digital assets backed by real values like US Treasuries. This legislation not only ensures better disclosures and transaction efficiency but also mitigates the profit margins of traditional banks from stablecoin transactions, casting aside the influence of partisan politics that have dominated the conversation around crypto, particularly from its critics like Sen. Elizabeth Warren.
The GENIUS Act represents a significant evolution in crypto legislation, establishing essential guidelines for the stablecoin market to foster transparency and safeguards for investors.
The bill is a necessary step toward coherent regulation in the $3.5 trillion crypto sector, promising more efficient transactions and reducing the influence of traditional banks.
