The 196-222 vote represents a critical fracture point where concerns about centralized control have superseded the push for crypto regulation, signaling a prophetically significant power struggle over monetary control.

📰 What Happened
House Republicans failed to advance the GENIUS Act on July 15, 2025, with a 196-222 vote blocking the first federal framework for U.S. stablecoins. Over a dozen Republican holdouts joined Democrats in opposing the motion, derailing what was dubbed 'Crypto Week.' Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene notably opposed the bill for lacking CBDC restrictions, stating 'Americans do not want a government-controlled Central Bank Digital Currency.'
📖 Prophetic Significance
The GENIUS Act's failure reveals three unprecedented developments: 1) The emergence of a legislative battleground between private stablecoins and government CBDCs, echoing Revelation's warning about controlled commerce, 2) Rep. Greene's explicit rejection highlights growing resistance to centralized digital currency control, fulfilling 2 Thessalonians 2:3's rebellion against centralized authority, and 3) The 196-222 vote demonstrates a prophetically significant division within governing authorities over who will control digital money, aligning with Daniel's prophecies about divided kingdoms in the end times.
