For more than a decade, cryptocurrency lived in legal limbo. It was too weird to regulate, too volatile to trust, and too new for Washington to take seriously. That just changed. The U.S. House of Representatives has passed the GENIUS Act, the first major federal law regulating stablecoins, digital currencies backed by the U.S. dollar. The bill now heads to President Trump’s desk, where it’s expected to become law. Here’s what it means for you, your money, and the financial system around you.
