Paving the legislative road for voting on the market structure
The debate centers around whether crypto exchanges should be allowed to offer rewards similar to interest for customers holding stablecoins.
Traditional banking institutions have strongly pushed for a complete ban on these incentives, citing concerns over "deposit flight" as consumers may shift their capital from traditional bank accounts to higher-yielding digital assets.
Under the new agreement, banks have been given stricter limits on crypto stablecoin rewards, although the fundamental ability of platforms to offer them remains intact.
Fryar Shirzad, Chief Policy Officer at Coinbase, pointed out that the agreement protects the rights of American users to earn rewards based on their actual usage of the platform and network.
The consensus is expected to push the broader crypto market structure bill towards a decisive vote in the Senate Banking Committee.
The legislation is designed to provide the long-awaited clarity by defining the specific regulatory jurisdictions of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) over the digital asset system.
