Republican House leaders anticipate passing an industry-friendly stablecoin regulatory bill this week, sending Congress’s first major digital assets legislation to the president and kicking off a series of votes on related measures that supporters have dubbed “Crypto Week.

Crypto-focused stocks rose on Friday, after ether hit a six-month high on the passage of a stablecoin bill by the U.S. House of Representatives.

The SEC chairman called the stablecoin legislation a “historic step” in making the US the crypto capital of the world. The bill, which sets regulatory rules for dollar-backed stablecoins, would require firms to hold dollar-for-dollar reserves in short-term government debt or similar products overseen by state or federal regulators.
