Rep. Dusty Johnson Touts Crypto Market Bill as Catalyst for ‘Golden Age’

U.S. Representative Dusty Johnson said on Thursday that pending legislation to set a federal market structure for digital assets could "usher in a golden age of innovation" and accelerate U.S. leadership in blockchain and Web3 technologies. Johnson compared the prospective impact of blockchain to the early internet, arguing that the technology "will transform every single industry" and do so faster than many observers expect. He did not release new details of the bill but described it as a cornerstone for regulatory clarity that would encourage investment and development across the economy.
