Once heralded with the pomp of a summer’s day, the Senate saw the GENIUS Act sail through in June, yet its voyage in the House remains steeped in uncertainty. Speaker Mike Johnson, like a cautious sailor eyeing the horizon, hinted at another attempt, perhaps to be revealed later in the week. Will the winds of fortune change?

He quite confidently alluded to experiences both Norwegian and American, perhaps expecting Kazakhstan to don the digital crown of the Middle East. After all, why not invest in those cheeky cryptocurrencies, or just grab a piece of the ETF pie while we’re at it?

GENIUS Act, yes, let’s go with that—perhaps for the irony alone. It’s a bill designed to regulate the wild, untamed land of payment stablecoins.
