Prospects for Crypto Legislation
With the U.S. elections approaching, the likelihood of crypto legislation being passed this year appears slim. However, key lawmakers, including Rep. Patrick McHenry and Sen. Cynthia Lummis, maintain that there is still a possibility for a crypto bill to be approved before the end of the legislative session. Sen. Lummis emphasized the urgency of the situation, citing the need for a regulatory framework similar to that in Europe. She believes that the lame duck period, following the elections and before new members take office, could present an opportunity for progress on this important legislation.
