Publications and Events
Rep. Jeff Crank (R-CO) published an op-ed in The Hill entitled “From battlefield to benefits office: A better deal for our warfighters and veterans.” He says, “Blockchain, at its core, is unglamorous. It is a method of keeping records that multiple parties can trust without needing to trust each other. Once an entry is written, it cannot be quietly altered or lost. Every authorized participant sees the same ledger at the same time. For a veteran whose discharge papers, medical history, and benefits eligibility must pass through the Department of War, the Department of Veterans Affairs, the Social Security Administration, and any number of state agencies, that property is the difference between a claim resolved in weeks and a claim resolved in years. For some, it is the difference between life saving care, and a fatal failure of our government.” (Op-ed)

ADMINISTRATION
White House
Regarding negotiations on ethics language within the CLARITY Act, a White House official said, “We’re at relatively early stages” on “how to protect the interests of the administration and the constitutional separation of powers, and to get this bill done.” The official added, “I don’t want to forecast any timeline. I think we’re cautiously optimistic about getting something satisfactory, but we’re cautiously optimistic in all sorts of situations.” (Semafor)
President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets Executive Director Patrick Witt posted “The Clarity Act is the most pro-law enforcement crypto bill ever considered by Congress. Fact.”
Federal Reserve
Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman testified before the House Financial Services Committee, saying, “Innovation is essential to meeting customer expectations, lowering costs, enhancing services, and maintaining a dynamic banking industry that adapts to the introduction of new technologies. This is especially important given the intense competition banks face from nonbank financial institutions. The Federal Reserve has prioritized open communication with banks to understand innovation challenges and improve how regulators facilitate, oversee, and support responsible innovation. Recently, the federal banking agencies updated the capital treatment for ‘tokenized’ securities, clarifying that the capital rule is technology neutral by providing identical capital treatment to similar, non-tokenized assets. The Federal Reserve also revised our model risk management guidance to adopt a principles- and risk-based approach tailored to a bank’s business model, risk profile, size and operational complexity. Importantly, it also provides greater flexibility for implementing new technologies. The Federal Reserve also replaced an overly restrictive policy statement with one that encourages appropriate adoption of innovation at Board-supervised banking organizations.”
Treasury Department
Secretary Scott Bessent posted “While Iran’s economy is in free fall, the regime has chosen to co-opt digital asset technologies for its own corrupt agenda, including evading sanctions and transferring wealth out of the country. Iran’s current economic chaos is proof that POTUS’ maximum pressure campaign has been a success. As promised, Treasury will continue to follow the money in support of Economic Fury, whether it is through the banking system or through digital assets, to prevent the regime from developing a nuclear weapon.”
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC)
CFTC Chair Mike Selig posted “Hard at work on Capitol Hill with GOPMajorityWhip
to help get CLARITY across the line and deliver clear rules that unlock innovation, protect software developers, and cement the US as the crypto capital of the world.”
Selig also posted “Biden’s CFTC was mired by a culture of regulation by enforcement that fundamentally misconstrued the agency’s mandate, stifled innovation, and drove the crypto industry offshore. Under POTUS’s leadership, we’ve ended the political witch hunts, the lawfare, and the era of opaque rules of the road, and the US is now the crypto capital of the world.”
Selig also posted “Prediction markets are far from the wild west. Event contracts trade on registered exchanges that are regulated by the CFTC and administer the same types of controls as other types of derivatives exchanges. The agency will continue to listen to stakeholder feedback and provide regulatory clarity through a forthcoming proposed rule to ensure these products have a future here in America.”
Selig also posted “Gary Gensler said the law was clear–‘virtually every crypto asset is a security’–and drove the crypto industry offshore. Now, he says the law is clear–‘event contracts are not derivatives’–and seeks to push the prediction markets offshore. He has a poor track record reading the law. Event contracts, whether on sports, politics, or any commodity, are within the CFTC’s remit. We’ll regulate these markets accordingly.”
CONGRESS
Politico Interview with House Financial Services Chair French Hill (R-AR)
When asked if he was concerned about getting rolled by the Senate on the CLARITY Act, House Financial Services Chair French Hill (R-AR) said, “No. From day one, they have used our base approach for Clarity as passed in the House, very closely in the Senate Agriculture Committee markup, and all along the way, our staff and members have collaborated with Cynthia Lummis, Senator Gillibrand, and others who’ve worked on the banking committee aspects of this. We have a bill that’s marked up in the Senate that we can work with quite effectively. Now, the question is working with Senator [John] Boozman, Senator Scott to merge those bills and get them through the Senate, and in my view, we’ve worked seamlessly at the staff and member level all along the way since we passed Clarity last July, and they began working on it in earnest after the government shutdown.” (Politico)
On the current state of the CLARITY Act in the Senate and the path forward, Hill said, “We’ve worked hand in glove with members and staff level all along the process since we passed CLARITY last July, and it’s been good. And they marked up a bill that’s in a good place. There are things that I’d like to see continued [to be] improved in it, but we have time to do that in working with our colleagues in the Senate [Agriculture] Committee and Senate Banking Committee, but this bill is coming along well. It’s in the right place, coming out of the committee. I think Senator Boozman’s team has got the right team put together to now work with Senate Banking to complete the work on CLARITY and bring it to the Senate floor for consideration. I was pleased to see the Senate put CLARITY out on their calendar as a potential item to be brought to the Senate floor. So, my great hope is that we can complete this work, and that maybe even on the anniversary of signing GENIUS last year we could sign the Clarity Act into law before the August recess.” (Politico)
On maintaining House priorities in CLARITY, Hill said, “We have just worked this language along the way, between staff and members, to keep it on track. I didn’t say identical, but on track with something that can be found to be acceptable to the House. So, in other words, the Senate marked up bill of CLARITY contains the vast majority of House priorities. We now need to see how the Ag and Senate bill gets merged, and then we could make an opinion on that aspect as well.” (Politico)
On the stablecoin yield agreement between Sens. Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks, Hill said, “I’m speaking personally, not necessarily as the chairman, but it was a sensible, balanced approach. Some of the nuance around sales practices could be dealt with in the rulemaking on stablecoins that Treasury is drafting and promulgating as well, and we see this in the securities business, where you have statutory authority and you have rulemaking that governs the details and sales practices for any stablecoin issuer, bank or non-bank. They made a really valid and valiant attempt to find a decent landing spot.” (Politico)
Digital Asset Taxation
In his opening statement at the House Ways and Means Committee hearing with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Chair Jason Smith (R-MO) said, “Looking ahead, our tax policies must continue to make our economy the most competitive for innovative sectors of the future, including digital assets and the over 60 million Americans who own cryptocurrency. America needs clear, modern tax rules to ensure we remain the crypto capital of the world. Next week, we will be holding a legislative hearing on policies that offer solutions to pressing issues surrounding digital asset taxation.”
In his opening statement at the Senate Finance Committee hearing with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, Chair Mike Crapo (R-ID) said, “I’m hopeful for similar support as we move forward with other priorities with a bipartisan foundation in this committee, such as establishing clear and durable tax rules for digital assets.”
Ways and Means Committee posted “Uncertainty in the digital asset space will allow this market to seep offshore. The Ways and Means Committee is working to maintain America’s status as the crypto capital of the world and keep our digital asset market competitive.”
Ways and Means Committee also posted “Next week, the Ways and Means Committee will be holding a hearing to examine legislation to deliver much needed, commonsense reforms to the digital asset marketplace.”
Miscellaneous
Rep. Kevin Mullin (D-CA) posted “As the World Cup begins and online sports gambling has become increasingly widespread, consumers deserve clear and honest information about the prediction market platforms they are using.”
Rep. Jeff Crank (R-CO) posted “Every day, our veterans seek the benefits they earned in service to the nation, yet far too many are forced to wait. With blockchain technology, Congress has the opportunity to fully modernize this system and finally deliver results to our heroes instantly. Read more in my op-ed published in TheHill.”
Rep. Sylvia Garcia (D-TX) posted “Americans are being crushed by high costs, and Trump told us himself he does not think about their financial struggles. Meanwhile, financial safeguards are being weakened, and big banks and crypto firms are being given more room to take risks with Americans’ hard-earned money. Today in USHouseFSC, we are holding prudential regulators accountable.”
House Financial Services Hearing on Oversight of Prudential Regulators Q&A
Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA)
Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-MA): “Ms. Bowman, I’ve got an overriding concern about just generally the convergence of traditional banking, where we have a lot of safeguards and guardrails, and what’s happening in crypto, as I’m sure you’re aware. Yes, we’ve been experiencing a so-called crypto crash recently, and I know that I know that the Kraken was, was recently, well, a while back, was given a Federal Reserve master account that was, that was granted even before we had the framework set up. Are we looking closely at what’s going on with Kraken, and whether they’re in full compliance given the nosedive that crypto has taken recently.”
Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman: “Thank you for that question, Congressman Lynch. The Federal Reserve has a process for approving applications, a tiered approach for approving applications for access to the payment system, our approach for Kraken was for a limited purpose and for a limited period of time. The Kansas City Reserve Bank approved that limited purpose application, and the 12 months will lapse early next year. We look forward to understanding how that entity will be using its access, very limited access to the payment system to understand how other similar entities might use that an account as well.”
Lynch: “Okay, that’s fair. Thank you. I do want to comment, though. Each of the regulators has rescinded its earlier guidance, so we go back a year and a half, two years ago, we had a standard guidance to banks, just to use caution, because crypto is a speculative asset, as we’ve seen recently, and yet all the all of the lessons we’ve learned, you know, from going back to the Great Depression, the bank crisis, even, even as recently as 2008 was to try to create stability in the banks, so those, those missions seem to be in conflict, the, the speculative asset Act aspect of crypto, and yet the stability and safety and soundness of these banks seem to be in conflict, and now we don’t have the CFPB, so they’re not a cop on the beat anymore. You’ve relinquished the one guidance that was out there that they told banks, be careful, be careful about investing in and crypto, so, so, what do we, what are we doing now? What’s out there that’s going to protect depositors and retail investors, and, and the banks themselves in terms of safety and soundness. Now that we’re not giving them that type of guidance.”
Bowman: “One of the concerns that we had about that guidance was that it was much more broad than the single issue that you’re talking about. What we want to make sure is that our banking system is positioned to adopt innovation where it’s necessary for them to meet the expectations of their customers and consumers, and to be able to be positioned to support the US economy as it’s growing and it’s evolving to adopt some of these technologies as we are looking at our supervision of bank banks under our purview at the Federal Reserve, we work closely with them to ensure that they’re adopting innovation in a safe and sound manner, but that we’re working together with them as we’re working to develop our GENIUS Act responsibilities and introduce our frameworks.”
Lynch: “Can I just ask, will there be a report at the end when Kraken, when that period expires? And, would you offer that to the committee?”
Bowman: “I don’t have anything for you on that right now, but I’d be happy to talk to the Kanas City Reserve.”
Rep. Al Green (D-TX)
Rep. Al Green (D-TX): “Let’s talk for just a moment about meme coins. Generally speaking, there’s something that is known as the greater fool theory, and this greater fool theory depends upon someone who has made a purchase having another person pay more for that purchase than this someone that made the initial purchase, that’s how you make your money. A meme coin is highly dependent on the greater fool theory. Someone buying at a higher price than the person who bought initially. Is there anybody who differs with me on that good, because a meme coin means literally that you buy nothing when you make your purchase, but you do have the opportunity to either make money or lose money. Well, the president has found a way to manipulate meme coins, and he and his family, they’ve made hundreds of millions of dollars with the manipulation of these meme coins. I stand against it, and I also stand against the crypto criminals who are making it possible for this to occur. At some point, people who invest in nothing will get what they are purchased. I’m going to protect the American people as long as I have the opportunity to do so. Yes, I’m Al Green, unbought, unbought, liberated Democrat who’s also unelected, but is still fighting.”
Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI)
Rep. Lisa McClain (R-MI): “I want to talk a little bit about debanking, which is very concerning for me. For years and years, we heard horror stories about how regulators have pressured banks into cutting off businesses with industries that liberals don’t like. Let me give you a couple facts. First, it was Operation Chokepoint, where Obama administration tried to pressure banks into not doing business with firearm dealers. Then the Biden administration launched Operation Chokepoint 2.0 where they pressured banks to pause services with cryptocurrency companies. Even the First Lady and the President’s own son got denied a bank account. Extremely concerning for me. So, what I’d like to understand is a little bit of history on how we got there. So, Secretary Bowman, or Ms. Bowman, can you explain how the guidelines encouraged banks to evaluate reputational risks, how that gave way to this issue of debanking?”
Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman: “Well, Congresswoman McLean, first of all, it’s nice to see you again, we visited a lot. A few months ago about mortgages, and we made some progress on, but on this issue, during the first operation, Chokepoint, I was actually a banker and was subject to scrutiny from the then FDIC, sorry, Chairman Hill, about the activities that we had, and it wasn’t just limited to the activities that you mentioned, we were scrutinized based on check cashing services and standalone ATMs and other types of businesses that some of our customers were engaged in at the time. It is an inappropriate use of supervision to eliminate certain customers from the banking system, and it’s something that we feel very strongly about. Clearly, the President issued an executive order on this, and we’re all working to ensure that that’s no longer a part of our supervisory processes.”
Senate Finance Committee Hearing with Treasury Secretary Bessent Q&A
Sen. Mike Crapo (R-ID)
Sen. Mike Crapo (R-ID): “The Senate Finance Committee, is engaged in productive bipartisan discussions on the taxation of digital assets. As the digital asset industry continues to grow and evolve, there’s an increasing need for durable, common sense rules of the road that provide certainty for taxpayers, support innovation, and help ensure that the United States remains competitive in the global digital markets, does Treasury support Congressional efforts to develop comprehensive digital asset taxation? And in your view, what are the risks of continued inaction, both in terms of taxpayer compliance and America’s ability to remain competitive in the rapidly growing digital asset economy?”
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “Senator since President Trump issued his executive order, Treasury has been working tirelessly to implement the action on digital assets. We saw Congress pass stablecoin legislation, Clarity Act, which I would encourage everyone to get behind. It’s very necessary to bring us best practices on shore, and we work tirelessly in terms of custodying these assets and keeping them, making the US the innovation capital of the world.”
Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC)
Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC): “Mr. Secretary as you know, economic security is national security, and the Treasury Department plays a critical role. The United States national security apparatus with the emergence of digital assets. I was curious if you could touch on the Treasury’s role in fulfilling President Trump’s executive order that set up the Bitcoin strategic reserve and digital asset stockpile. Could you give me an update on where things stand with the implementation of the executive order.”
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “Yes, sir. And I couldn’t agree more with you that economic security is national security. I gave a speech at the Regan Library outlining my thoughts on that, and how for 25 years the US has been asleep, and under President Trump’s leadership we are moving forward very quickly on that, and part of that is our digital assets initiative. The Strategic Bitcoin Reserve is something - this is new technology, this is new ground. We are proceeding with all deliberate speed, and we are making sure that as we are doing this in this complicated process that we use best practices and things will be durable for the future, and look forward to working with you and your team on that. Absolutely, I look forward to the CLARITY Act being passed this summer.”
Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT)
Sen. Steve Daines (R-MT): “Last question they have is on digital assets. Digital assets have moved from the margins now more to the mainstream, it’s been clear that our tax code hasn’t kept up. We bear that responsibility now to put a tax structure in place. I’m taking the lead here in the finance committee, as many in this committee know, that’s why we’ve been developing a framework that could give us clearer rules for digital asset taxation following the pass of the GENIUS Act, digital assets are becoming more integrated in our financial system, and I believe we’re going to play a growing role in our economy and the potential to keep driving invest in the United States. Numbers speak for themselves. The total crypto market cap reached $4 trillion for the first time in history, stablecoin transaction volume was $33 trillion a 72% increase from 2024 The number of crypto mobile wallet users reached an all time high up 20% from last year. I do believe it’s important that we provide some clarity as elected tax law, and that’s our responsibility here that I’m working on at the moment. If I could, Secretary Bessent, as the administration continues its work in digital assets, will you commit to working with Congress on implementing digital asset taxation legislation, anticipate that there must be a two-way street?”
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “I will commit to that, and tax certainty, as we’ve seen with every other industry, is the key to innovation.”
House Ways and Means Hearing with Treasury Secretary Bessent Q&A
Rep. Max Miller (R-OH)
Rep. Max Miller (R-OH): “Since we last discussed digital assets in this room, the landscape has shifted from a conversation about the rise of these technologies to a question of how we successfully integrate them into our regulatory tax infrastructure, we have seen meaningful progress. The Senate Banking Committee has advanced the CLARITY Act to build a market structure framework. Additionally, I, along with my colleague to my left over here, Rep Horsford, have introduced the Digital Asset PARITY Act to finally provide the commonsense tax certainty our businesses and investors truly require throughout our country. We are no longer debating whether digital assets are here to stay any longer, but rather how we define the rules of the road, and we believe that this is necessary now at this time in our history. I truly look forward to discussing how Treasury can collaborate with Congress to ensure these dual frameworks provide the economic stability and tax fairness the American people deserve. Mr. Secretary the PARITY Act was introduced to solve the phantom income and tax as cash hurdles that currently plague American businesses and everyday investors. We’ve seen that without tax parity, companies are hesitant to adopt these tools, individuals are burdened by the reporting requirements that feel more like friction tax than truly a fair system. So, I’ll just get right to it. As the Treasury Department looks at the current tax code, how do you see the PARITY Act specifically its provisions for stablecoin payments and the elective deferral of staking in mining rewards as a catalyst for keeping digital asset innovation within the United States, rather than forcing it offshore.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent: “So, Congressman, thank you for those questions. This administration and Treasury’s goal is to onshore digital assets, both because the innovation that we’re seeing and us standards and practices, so we would like to work with both of both of you on this to perfect the right balance between how this should be done, but I do think whenever we get to these new technologies, there is an adjustment period, we have to think about them in a different way, and I believe not only for the technology, for the payment rails, it’s essential for us to be the leader to maintain dollar dominance, and we want to have the best standards in the US that we can export to the rest of the world. So, we’d be happy to work with you on that.”
Miller: “Thank you very much. We’ve been working extremely hard over the last, let’s say, 15 to 16 months to bring a framework, and truly what we’re seeking here really is, besides the name of the legislation, CLARITY and PARITY, and just stability for the tax code for these individuals. And I very much thank you for your answer, and you’re willing to work with both of us on committee, and all of us, our bill also…”
Bessent: “But I would say, let’s get CLARITY done by the fourth of July, and then we move on to how to tax it.”
Miller: “Mr. Secretary I would love that. I just, if you could help me with some of those individuals…”
Bessent: “I’ve been on the phone with them this week.”
Miller: “All right, well, if that thing gets moving, then yes, it makes our job much easier, and I would prefer that way as well. But thank you. And any more guided push would be awesome on our committee, and very grateful. A critical piece of this legislation is the application of Section 1058 like treatment to digital asset lending. If the Treasury Department were to formally recognize digital asset lending as analog as to the securities lending covered under Section 1058 what is your assessment of the impact on the domestic market liquidity, and specifically, does Treasury agree that extending this established tax treatment of nonrecognition is one of the most efficient levers to move digital assets from a speculative asset class to a functional, transparent part of our institutional financial infrastructure.”
Bessent: “Congressman, you obviously feel strongly about this. I have a motto in life no data, no opinion, but I will get back to you with an opinion.”
Miller: “I very much appreciate that this has been one of the tougher subject matters that we’ve discussed on the committee, because I believe that this country, for a long time, has been stuck in the analog era, and we are now in the digital age, and you know this framework altogether just provides guidelines and stability for the cryptocurrency network within our country, and I appreciate, you know, you saying you’ll work with us, but I truly believe now is the right time for this, with President Trump and the Federal Crypto Reserve, and him wanting, you know, the United States to be the crypto capital. My concern is, is that if people like you and I and others, right now, you know, who don’t have a good understanding aren’t the ones really steering this to its final destination. Then we may never get there, and it may get screwed up in a different way. But I truly appreciate you being here, working with Rep. Horsford, myself.”
