H.R. 1664 in America’s Web3

The post H.R. 1664 in America’s Web3 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The US Congress took a decisive step toward blockchain innovation with the House passage of the Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2025 (H.R. 1664). If it passes the Senate, the bill could become a cornerstone of US digital infrastructure policy, ushering in a new era for Web3, open-source development, and decentralized technology.

For the first time, federal agencies are explicitly tasked with coordinating blockchain adoption, issuing strategic guidance, and supporting open-source infrastructure. This marks a crucial shift from the US’s previously fragmented approach and comes in the aftermath of President Trump’s pro-crypto stance. This marks a clear transition from passive observation to proactive federal support, aimed at solidifying America’s position in the global blockchain arena. What’s at Stake? Competitiveness, Innovation, and Clarity The bill outlines a clear agenda: enhance global competitiveness, reduce regulatory uncertainty, and remove barriers for blockchain-based startups and enterprises. Industry participants have long lamented the absence of a cohesive national policy, slowing innovation and driving talent and capital overseas.

It also opens the door for regulatory alignment across federal agencies, an area previously mired in jurisdictional overlaps. Eyes on the Senate After Bipartisan Momentum The bill has garnered bipartisan support, signaling a broader recognition of blockchain’s relevance beyond cryptocurrencies. It comes at a critical time, as global competitors such as China, the UAE, and Singapore accelerate…
