The US House has passed a housing bill that includes a provision banning central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, until 2030. According to the source material, the bill now needs approval from US President Donald Trump to move forward.
The development matters for the crypto sector because CBDCs sit at the center of a broader policy debate over the future of digital money in the United States. A temporary ban would limit federal movement on a US CBDC through the end of the decade, if signed into law.

The next step is presidential action. Until Trump signs the bill, the CBDC ban described in the source has not become final law.
