Today’s crypto news to know

Bitcoin hits record US$123,000 as Congress kicks off Crypto Week

Bitcoin surged to a new all-time high of US$123,153.22 on Monday (July 14), driven by investor optimism ahead of major US congressional debates on crypto regulation.

The House of Representatives is set to consider three pivotal bills this week: the GENIUS Act, the CLARITY Act, and the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act.

These proposals aim to create a federal framework for stablecoins, clarify regulatory jurisdiction between the SEC and CFTC, and ban the Federal Reserve from issuing a central bank digital currency.

The rally was bolstered by President Donald Trump’s continued support for the crypto sector, as he declared himself the “crypto president” during his campaign and urged a friendlier regulatory approach.

Market analysts pointed to strong institutional inflows and broader participation from family offices in Asia. Ethereum followed suit, climbing past US$3,000, while Solana and XRP each rose by approximately 3 percent.

The global crypto market cap now stands at US$3.81 trillion. Analysts say this could mark a structural shift, with bitcoin increasingly viewed as a reserve asset by both institutions and some central banks.

‘Crypto Week’ in Washington triggers rally in digital assets and equities

As “Crypto Week” begins in the U.S. capital, lawmakers are fast-tracking efforts to regulate the digital asset industry with three bills under House consideration.

The GENIUS Act, passed by the Senate last month, seeks to regulate stablecoins by limiting issuance to licensed entities and requiring full dollar-backed reserves. It is scheduled for a House floor vote on Tuesday and may reach President Trump’s desk within days. T

he more complex CLARITY Act proposes splitting oversight duties between the SEC and CFTC depending on asset classification—commodities versus securities.

The third measure, the Anti-CBDC Surveillance State Act, aims to prohibit the Fed from developing a digital dollar.

Stocks tied to crypto companies are soaring in tandem: Coinbase and Robinhood hit new highs, while Circle stock has risen over 500 percent since its IPO.

Bhutan sells US$59M in Bitcoin but retains US$1.4B in holdings

Bhutan has sold over US$59 million worth of bitcoin in recent days, taking advantage of the cryptocurrency’s historic run past US$123,000.

According to blockchain analytics platform Lookonchain, the country offloaded 512.84 BTC in the past four days. Even after the sale, Bhutan still holds over 11,400 BTC, now valued at more than US$1.4 billion.

The sales are coordinated by Druk Holding & Investments, the country’s sovereign wealth fund, which operates a clean-energy mining program powered by hydropower.

Unlike Germany, which liquidated seized crypto, Bhutan actively mines and times its sales to coincide with price peaks. Officials have emphasized the environmental sustainability of their operations in line with national policy goals.
