Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2025

Key Points

• Directs the Commerce Department to lead the federal government’s work on blockchain and related tools like tokens and tokenization.
• Creates a Commerce Department “Blockchain Deployment Program” to promote U.S. competitiveness, security, and real-world use of the technology.
• Requires the Secretary of Commerce to set up advisory committees within 180 days, including business, cybersecurity, rural, consumer, and creator representatives.
• Pushes “best practices” guidance on topics like cybersecurity, fraud reduction, key storage, and making different blockchain systems work together.
• Requires public annual reports starting 2 years after enactment on what Commerce did, risks seen, and whether Congress should pass more laws; the program ends after 7 years.
