Polymarket platform gives an 89% probability for the passage of the US stablecoin bill, the GENIUS Act. The bill was passed in the US Senate on Tuesday with a vote of 68 to 30 and is expected to be signed into law by the President before 2026. The bill aims to regulate payment stablecoins and may allow US companies to issue their own stablecoins for transaction settlement. Tech giants such as Apple and Google are also rumored to be considering issuing their own tokens. President Trump stated that if the House of Representatives passes the bill quickly, he will sign it without any conditions. The House has a Republican majority and may soon vote on the CLARITY Act, which aims to establish a framework for crypto market structure. Polymarket's odds reflect the enthusiasm of some crypto users betting on the bill's passage but do not represent the legislative outcome.

Cryptocurrency users are betting on the odds that US legislation to regulate payment stablecoins will move forward, following a crucial vote in the Senate and a public push from President Donald Trump to “get it to [his] desk.” As of Thursday, the online betting platform Polymarket shows an 89% chance of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins, or GENIUS Act, passing the US Senate and House of Representatives and being signed into law by the president before 2026. The Polymarket bet seemed to have been launched roughly 18 hours after the bill passed in the Senate in a 68-30 vote on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether the bill will have enough support to pass the House in its current form or whether lawmakers could add amendments to address concerns over Trump’s connections to the crypto industry, including World Liberty Financial’s stablecoin, USD1. A majority of senators voted against a similar amendment before the final passage of the GENIUS Act, which moved the legislation to the House. Depending on the final shape of the bill, it could open the floodgates for US companies to issue their own stablecoins to settle transactions. Tech giants like Apple and Google were reportedly considering their own tokens, and two US senators forwarded questions to Meta on whether the company might have the same plans if the bill were to be signed into law.

Odds on Polymarket do not necessarily offer insight as to whether US lawmakers will pass the bill or Trump will sign it into law. Rather, the platform shows how much some crypto users are willing to wager on one or more particular outcomes. Magazine: New York’s PubKey Bitcoin bar will orange-pill Washington DC next
