The stablecoin bill, known as the Genius Act, and the crypto market structure bill, known as the Clarity Act, both received notable bipartisan support. Democratic lawmakers joined with Republicans to pass the stablecoin bill 308-122.

President Donald Trump signed the first federal bill to regulate stablecoins, hailing it as a “giant step to cement American dominance of global finance and crypto technology” and delivering a major victory for the digital asset industry.

As Trump prepares to sign the law, Consumer Reports' senior director monitoring digital marketplaces, Delicia Hand, told Ars that the group plans to work with other consumer advocates and the implementing regulator to try to close any gaps in the stablecoin legislation that would leave Americans vulnerable.
