President Donald Trump said that holdouts on his cryptocurrency legislation agreed to support a procedural vote hours after blocking the three bills over concerns that one of the bills—to ban central bank digital currencies (CBDC)—would not pass the Senate.

“I am in the Oval Office with 11 of the 12 Congressmen/women necessary to pass the GENIUS Act and, after a short discussion, they have all agreed to vote tomorrow morning in favor of the Rule,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post Tuesday night.
