U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday signed a law to create a regulatory regime for U.S.-dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies known as stablecoins, a milestone that could pave the way for the digital assets to become an everyday way to make payments and move money.

The new law is meant to bolster consumer confidence in the crypto industry, which has quickly become a major power player in Washington thanks to massive campaign donations and spending on lobbying. Its passage comes as Trump had repeatedly pledged to make the U.S. the “crypto capital of the world.”

House Republicans promoted this week as the latest step for the U.S. to become the “crypto capital of the world.”
