The gist
Non-binding House resolution supporting blockchain and cryptocurrency. Pushes Congress to write clear rules so the U.S. leads in digital assets instead of losing companies abroad.
Who wins, who loses
- Wins: crypto companies, blockchain developers, exchanges wanting U.S. regulatory clarity.

What it does
- Resolution only ā€” no law changes, no funding.
- Declares U.S. should be the global leader in digital assets.
- Urges Congress to pass a tailored regulatory framework for crypto.
- Calls for consumer protections similar to securities and commodities rules.

Since many teens already trade crypto or NFTs, future rules could shape those apps directly. Where do you land? Vote below and use "Tell Your Rep" to make sure your voice reaches Congress.
