US President Donald Trump urged the House to pass the GENIUS Stablecoin Act as soon as possible so that he can sign it into law. The stablecoin bill is a breakthrough for the US crypto industry, while Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent notes that “stablecoins can reinforce dollar supremacy”.

In his message on the Truth Social platform following the Senate approval, Trump wrote:

”The Senate just passed an incredible Bill that is going to make America the UNDISPUTED Leader in Digital Assets. Get it to my desk, ASAP — NO DELAYS, NO ADD ONS.”

On June 17, the Senate passed the GENIUS Act with a 68-30 vote. The Litmus test will be passing through the House, where the Republicans hold a slim majority over the Democrats.

In his message on the X platform, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said:

“This administration is committed to establishing the United States as a hub for digital asset innovation, and the GENIUS Act moves us one step closer to that goal”.

Moreover, other supporters of the GENIUS Act argue that it could be instrumental in preserving the US dollar’s dominance in global finance.

Senator Bill Hagerty, the bill’s sponsor, stated that the legislation would enable businesses of all sizes and Americans nationwide to settle payments almost instantly, eliminating the delays of days or even weeks.
