Crypto Market Structure Legislation Remains an ’Achievable Goal’ Despite Shifting Deadlines
Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger asserts that passing comprehensive crypto market structure legislation remains within reach for the current U.S. Congress, despite evolving timelines. The former CFTC commissioner emphasized quality over speed in a November 5 social media post, noting bipartisan efforts to refine draft language for digital asset regulations.
Market structure talks have entered a substantive phase, with senators exchanging ideas and testing legislative text across party lines. Mersinger framed the initiative as critical for maintaining U.S. leadership in financial innovation, stressing the need for clear rules that protect consumers while fostering domestic development of next-generation financial infrastructure.
