Trump Blocks CBDC Ban by Rejecting Bill
CBDC Ban Stalled as Trump Declines to Sign Housing Bill Containing Digital Dollar Prohibition
A US retail CBDC ban is working its way through Congress, stalling at the White House, and ultimately taking legal effect through 2030 without presidential signature.
President Trump declined to sign the bipartisan housing bill that contained a provision banning the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency through 2030, describing it as 'of minor importance.' The refusal placed the digital dollar ban on hold despite the bill having previously passed the Senate. The development leaves the CBDC-versus-stablecoin regulatory landscape unresolved pending further congressional action.
