No More Waiting: New Crypto Law Unlocks Cheaper, Faster Money for Everyone

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-07-19 22:52:16

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.

d3sign/Getty Imageds When most people think of AI, the first thing that probably comes to mind isn't superintelligence or the promise of agents to boost productivity, but scams. There've always been fraudsters among us, that small percentage of the population who'll use any means available to swindle others out of their money. The proliferation of advanced and easily accessible generative AI tools in recent years has made such nefarious activity exponentially easier. Also: Meet ChatGPT agent,

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-07-22 05:30:44

It's "Crypto Week" in Congress, and experts continue to warn that legislation Donald Trump wants passed quickly could give the president ample opportunities to grift while leaving Americans more vulnerable to scams and financial ruin.

Last month, the Aqua 1 Foundation, founded by Dave Lee, purchased $100 million worth of tokens from the Trump family’s cryptocurrency venture World Liberty Financial (WLF.

The US is on the brink of enacting rules for digital assets, with growing bipartisan momentum to modernize our financial system.
