CoinVoice has learned that according to Decrypt, U.S. congressional leaders unveiled a temporary spending bill on Tuesday aimed at preventing a government shutdown, which includes crypto-related initiatives.
The bill will extend government funding until March 14, 2025, currently including the 'Deploying American Blockchains Act.' This bill will enable the U.S. Department of Commerce to propose policy recommendations and establish a government-supported group of industry experts on Capitol Hill.
The bill requires the Department of Commerce to support the U.S. leadership in blockchain technology and to establish a new 'National Blockchain Deployment Advisory Committee' to evaluate the application of blockchain technology and tokenization in federal agencies, promoting U.S. leadership in global blockchain technology competitiveness.
