Three major cryptocurrency bills passed! Listen to the research director's insights on the opportunities behind cryptocurrency and stablecoin legislation

On July 17, 2025, the U.S. House of Representatives unanimously passed three cryptocurrency-related bills: the "Guidance and Establishment of a U.S. Dollar Stablecoin National Innovation Act" (referred to as the "GENIUS Act"), the "2025 Digital Asset Market Clarity Act" (referred to as the "CLARITY Act"), and the "Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act." The GENIUS Act has been signed into law by Trump, while the CLARITY Act and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act will be sent to the Senate for review. The acceleration of these three bills marks a strategic shift in the U.S. approach to cryptocurrency from "regulatory ambiguity" to "framework construction."

Following the passage of these landmark cryptocurrency bills in the U.S., investors expect hundreds of billions of dollars to flow in, with the total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market surpassing $4 trillion for the first time on Friday.

Additionally, on May 21 of this year, the Hong Kong Legislative Council passed the "Stablecoin Bill," establishing a licensing system for fiat-backed stablecoin issuers in Hong Kong and improving the regulatory framework for virtual asset activities in Hong Kong to maintain financial stability and promote financial innovation. This marks a historic step for Hong Kong in the global virtual asset regulatory landscape. Meanwhile, internet giants like Ant Group and JD.com are actively applying for stablecoin licenses to compete in the digital currency market.

The meeting will also assess the impact of the passage of the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act on the U.S. economy, analyze the economic fundamentals and tariff impacts for the second half of the year in the U.S., and look ahead to global asset allocation in the second half of 2025, helping everyone understand the major trends in global assets and clarify their thoughts.
