The Senate progresses President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” on stablecoin regulation with a decisive 51-49 vote on Saturday night.
The U.S. Senate successfully passed a key vote to advance the “GENIUS Act.” This procedural victory is fundamental to President Trump’s agenda, setting a stage for stablecoin regulation amidst a volatile market climate.
The vote was led by Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Vice President JD Vance was instrumental in securing GOP support. Notable holdouts included Senators Ron Johnson and Cynthia Lummis, with Rand Paul voting no.
“I’m negotiating with the GOP holdouts to secure support for this critical vote,” said JD Vance, Vice President.
Crypto markets responded to the Senate’s decision, with heightened activity on stablecoins like USDC and PayPal USD. Market optimism has spiked among digital asset investors, with future compliance rules anticipated.
The decision signifies a shift in digital asset governance, underscoring the importance of compliance for issuers. Investors and developers are preparing for the institution of new stablecoin operational frameworks.
Experts predict that subsequent regulatory clarity will invigorate interest in USD-pegged stablecoins. Discussions focus on the integration of Ethereum-based platforms, as Ethereum remains central in the stablecoin ecosystem.
Financial and technological outcomes are viewed positively, with increased regulatory certainty foreseen as a catalyst for institutional engagement. Historical trends in DeFi indicate possible shifts toward traditional finance and fintech partnerships.
