The Deploying American Blockchains Act of 2025 assigns the Secretary of Commerce to lead U.S. policy on blockchain technology and serve as the principal advisor to the President on blockchain deployment and competitiveness. The bill requires the Commerce Department to establish a National Blockchain Deployment Advisory Committee within 180 days of enactment, bringing together federal agencies and private sector experts including blockchain developers, cybersecurity specialists, academics, and small businesses. This committee will examine blockchain applications across various sectors like healthcare, supply chains, and e-commerce, while developing best practices for secure deployment and promoting U.S. leadership in the technology. The Secretary must submit annual reports to Congress describing activities and recommendations, with a final comprehensive report due 18 months before the advisory committee terminates in seven years. The legislation does not include specific funding provisions and emphasizes that participation by private companies is voluntary, with no requirements to share information or adopt recommended practices.
