Christian Briggs Analyzes the Genius Act and Its Impact on Digital Currency Policy
SAN JUAN, PUERTO RICO, November 6, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The Hard Asset Money Show with Christian Briggs Breaks Down the Bill Redefining the Boundaries of Digital Finance
The July 21, 2025 episode of The Hard Asset Money Show, hosted by economist and financial commentator Christian Briggs, provides an in-depth explanation of the “Genius Act,” a pivotal piece of legislation designed to protect Americans from government-controlled digital currency mandates.
The episode examines the origins, scope, and implications of the Genius Act, outlining how the bill prevents federal agencies from issuing or enforcing a U.S. central bank digital currency (CBDC) without explicit congressional approval. At the time of the episode’s release, the measure had sparked nationwide debate over financial sovereignty, data privacy, and the limits of executive power in digital policy.

“What it really did, is it put the Federal Reserve on notice.” said Briggs. “We took the automatic, proactive, precautionary measures to put legislation through so we control it, not a third-party non-government agency of the Federal Reserve under the Hamilton project. I know this because I addressed members of Congress for four or five years.”
Briggs details the legislative intent behind the bill, highlighting bipartisan collaboration that underscored public unease over programmable currencies and potential surveillance mechanisms. The discussion also contrasts the Genius Act with parallel initiatives in Europe and Asia, where governments have advanced digital currency programs under state oversight.
The episode further explores the economic and technological balance achieved by the legislation, encouraging blockchain innovation and private-sector crypto development while maintaining strong constitutional safeguards.
