#数字资产市场动态 U.S. crypto legislation suddenly accelerates, and the Senate Banking Committee is getting serious this week.
Honestly, the proposed bill changes are quite aggressive—over 70 amendments piled on the table, with all parties desperately trying to push in what they want. Chairman Tim Scott released a 278-page bill text last Monday, and then bipartisan lawmakers started proposing amendments like crazy, making the scene a bit chaotic.
So where are the biggest points of friction now? Mainly two: one is the issue of stablecoin yields, with the banking sector and the crypto community holding completely opposite demands; the other is an amendment aiming to give the Treasury Department the authority to sanction "distributed application layers," which is quite sensitive.
The regulatory boundaries between the SEC and CFTC have never been clearly defined, and the core goal of this bill is to properly define the attributes of digital assets and clarify who regulates what. But looking at the current situation, it’s hard to say how it will ultimately unfold. A founder of a major crypto platform made a very pointed comment—Thursday’s vote will reveal whether senators are siding with financial institutions or with user interests.
Many in the industry believe there’s still momentum to push this bill forward, but honestly, the final outcome is really uncertain. Every amendment could change the entire direction—DeFi’s future, stablecoin governance, consumer protection—all collide in this week’s meetings.
Let’s wait for Thursday’s revisions and voting results; only then will we see the true direction of U.S. crypto regulation.
