Republican Senators Cynthia Lummis and Bill Cassidy on Monday unveiled the Mined in America Act, a proposal designed to bolster domestic crypto mining while formalizing the federal government\u2019s growing interest in Bitcoin (BTC).\u00a0<\/p>\n

The bill <\/a>would create a voluntary certification program to encourage US-based development of crypto mining operations and related infrastructure, require certified sites to move away from mining equipment tied to foreign adversaries, and codify President Donald Trump\u2019s executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.<\/p>\n

New Plan To Grow US Crypto Mining<\/h2>\n

Under the measure, the Department of Commerce would stand up a voluntary \u201cMined in America\u201d certification for cryptocurrency mining facilities and mining pools.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Facilities that seek the label would have to phase out mining hardware manufactured by companies linked to foreign adversaries, a provision aimed at reducing reliance on potentially insecure supply chains.<\/p>\n

Rather than requesting new budgetary outlays, the bill would channel certified mining projects into existing federal energy and rural development programs to support the transition.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It also directs federal technical agencies to assist US manufacturers: the National Institute of Standards and Technology and the Manufacturing Extension Partnership would be tasked with helping domestic firms design and produce mining hardware.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The legislation is backed by the Satoshi Action Fund, which has advocated for policies to expand Bitcoin-related economic activity in the United States.<\/p>\n

Strategic Bitcoin Reserve On Statutory Footing<\/h2>\n

Another high-profile element of the bill would be formal recognition of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve announced in the White House executive order last year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Mined in America Act would codify that reserve by establishing it within the Department of the Treasury, giving the executive initiative a statutory anchor and signaling bipartisan interest in treating Bitcoin as a matter of public policy and national strategy.<\/p>\n

Senator Lummis framed the new crypto bill as part of a broader push to make the United States a leading center for digital-asset activity. \u201cPresident Trump pledged to make the United States the digital asset capital of the world\u2014 and we\u2019re not backing down,\u201d she said in a statement. Lummis added:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n

The Mined in America Act brings this industry home through forward-thinking initiatives to secure our financial future. I\u2019m proud to join Senator Cassidy to ensure the future of digital assets is built right here in America.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
