Trump Poised to Sign Crypto Bill as U.S. Nears Clear Digital-Asset Rules

Published at 2025-12-29 13:00:06

President Trump is reportedly prepared to sign a high-profile crypto bill after it cleared the final congressional and procedural obstacles, signaling near-term regulatory certainty for digital assets. With presidential approval imminent, the U.S. appears set to move from fragmented guidance to a more coordinated framework that defines rules for exchanges, stablecoins, and custody services. This development matters because clearer rules can reduce legal ambiguity for firms and investors, potentially boosting institutional participation and product innovation while strengthening consumer protections. Market participants and regulators will now turn to implementation details and agency rulemaking, which will determine how quickly exchanges and fintechs can adapt. The bill could also reset international conversations about crypto oversight, reinforcing the U.S. role in shaping global standards.
