Promoting Innovation in Blockchain Development Act
Details
This legislation amends the federal criminal statute governing unlicensed money transmitting businesses to require that an entity must actually exercise control over funds to face prosecution. By narrowing the definition of money transmission to custodial activities, the bill exempts non-custodial blockchain developers, self-custody wallet providers, node operators, and decentralized finance protocols from criminal liability for unlicensed money transmission, protecting fundamental software innovation.
The "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act" (H.R. 3533) provides a safe harbor for non-controlling blockchain developers and service providers, exempting them from being classified as money transmitters or financial institutions, and thus from associated licensing and registration requirements, unless they have control over users' digital assets. This aims to prevent such entities from incurring liability for unlicensed or unregistered conduct.
This legislation authorizes the payment of federal taxes using Bitcoin and establishes a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve to hold these funds. It provides taxpayers with a critical tax incentive by ensuring no gain or loss is recognized on Bitcoin transferred to satisfy federal tax liabilities. The bill also directs the Treasury to implement secure custody methods, including cold storage, and restricts the sale or disposition of the national Bitcoin holdings for at least twenty years.
This bill establishes the Office of Strategic Currency Diplomacy within the Department of State. Its primary purpose is to safeguard and promote the United States dollar's status as the global reserve currency. The office will evaluate the foreign policy and national security implications of virtual assets, coordinate strategies to increase dollar holdings and transactions, and counter the proliferation of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs) in other nations. It will also lead international engagements to expand the use of virtual assets, including USD payment stablecoins.
The GENIUS Act of 2025 proposes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It defines permitted issuers (insured depository institutions, their subsidiaries, and approved nonbank entities) and mandates 1:1 reserve backing with specific high-quality assets. The bill outlines federal and state regulatory oversight options, sets requirements for customer asset segregation, and grants stablecoin holders priority in insolvency proceedings. It also clarifies that regulated payment stablecoins are not considered securities or commodities under various acts. The bill designates issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring compliance with AML, KYC, and sanctions regulations to prevent illicit finance and safeguard national security. It also reinforces U.S. leadership in digital finance by supporting innovation and ensuring the dollar remains competitive in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.

CLARITY Act
Details
The "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025," or "CLARITY Act of 2025," establishes a regulatory framework for digital commodities, granting the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over spot market transactions and related entities like exchanges, brokers, and dealers. It aims to differentiate digital commodities from securities, introduce a "mature blockchain system" concept for regulatory exemptions, and protect individual self-custody rights.
This bill establishes an Independent Financial Technology Working Group to Combat Terrorism and Illicit Financing. The group, comprising various government agencies, financial technology companies, blockchain intelligence firms, and privacy organizations, will research the illicit use of digital assets and propose legislative and regulatory improvements for anti-money laundering and counter-terrorist financing efforts. It also mandates a presidential report on potential illicit uses of digital assets by rogue actors to evade sanctions or finance terrorism, alongside strategies to mitigate these risks.

H.J. Res 25
Details
A joint resolution providing for congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Internal Revenue Service relating to "Gross Proceeds Reporting by Brokers That Regularly Provide Services Effectuating Digital Asset Sales".
This bill prohibits Federal Reserve banks from offering financial products or services directly to individuals and from maintaining individual accounts. Crucially, it bans the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC), either directly or indirectly, and from using any CBDC for monetary policy. It also specifies an exception for dollar-denominated, open, permissionless, and private digital currencies that preserve privacy protections.
This bill proposes to amend the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 to allow for inflation indexing of certain assets, including digital assets, for capital gains tax purposes. For assets held longer than three years, the cost basis would be adjusted for inflation using the Gross Domestic Product deflator, thereby reducing the taxable gain. This change aims to provide relief to long-term investors by taxing only real gains, not those generated purely by inflation.
This bill proposes to prohibit federal agencies from restricting an individual's ability to use "convertible virtual currency" to purchase goods or services for their own use. It also safeguards the right of individuals to self-custody digital assets via self-hosted wallets for any lawful purpose. The legislation defines key terms such as convertible virtual currency, covered user, and self-hosted wallet to clarify the scope of these protections.

FIT21
Details
This bill establishes a comprehensive regulatory framework for digital assets, assigning primary jurisdiction over "digital commodities" to the CFTC and "restricted digital assets" to the SEC. It defines key terms like "digital asset," "digital commodity," and "permitted payment stablecoin," and creates a mechanism for digital assets to transition from securities to commodities upon achieving sufficient decentralization. The legislation also outlines registration requirements for various digital asset intermediaries and mandates studies on decentralized finance and non-fungible digital assets.
For congressional disapproval under chapter 8 of title 5, United States Code, of the rule submitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission relating to "Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121".
This staff accounting bulletin expresses the views of the staff regarding the accounting for obligations to safeguard crypto-assets an entity holds for platform users.
This bill aims to prevent Federal agencies from restricting individuals' ability to use convertible virtual currency for personal purchases of goods or services. It also explicitly protects the right of individuals to self-custody their digital assets using self-hosted wallets for any lawful purpose, defining both "convertible virtual currency" and "self-hosted wallet" broadly to encompass various digital assets.
This bill, known as the "CBDC Anti-Surveillance State Act," aims to prevent the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency (CBDC) directly to individuals. It prohibits Federal Reserve banks from offering products or services, or maintaining accounts, directly for individuals. Additionally, it restricts the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Open Market Committee from using any CBDC for monetary policy purposes and mandates quarterly reports to Congress on any CBDC studies or pilot programs.
