House Republicans are struggling with cryptocurrency legislation that they had expected to pass during what they dubbed “crypto week.”

The House of Representatives voted to regulate digital currencies and protect their owners on Thursday during what many lawmakers called "crypto week."

The House narrowly passed an earlier procedural vote to reopen a motion to debate after that motion failed on Tuesday when the House Freedom Caucus voted against advancing to debate and a final vote.
