The U.S. Treasury Secretary reiterated that the Trump administration will not launch a central bank digital currency, and the House's temporary ban will expire in 2030
According to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent reiterated today that a central bank digital currency (CBDC) will not be launched during the Trump administration. However, the House of Representatives has passed the "ROAD to Housing Act," which only includes a temporary ban on the Federal Reserve issuing a CBDC, set to expire in December 2030. The bill has not yet passed in the Senate.
Senate Republican leader Thune stated that pushing for a permanent ban may face resistance from Democrats. Some House Republicans believe that the expiration of the ban may reopen the space for the Federal Reserve to explore a CBDC. Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh stated that as long as he has the authority to stop it, he will not allow the Fed to advance a CBDC.
