US Senate Prepares Crypto Market Structure Bill Amid Legislative Uncertainty
US lawmakers are advancing a digital assets market structure bill in the Senate, adding complexity to the evolving regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies. A subcommittee hearing titled 'Exploring Bipartisan Legislative Frameworks for Digital Asset Market Structure' is scheduled for June 24, led by Senator Cynthia Lummis.
Republican Senator Tim Scott anticipates a full committee hearing within the next month, potentially following the release of a discussion draft. The legislative push comes as the House of Representatives' version of the bill faces delays, casting doubt on President Trump's goal of passage before the August recess.
