🚨 NEW: Crypto Market Structure Delayed 🚨
The U.S. Senate Banking Committee has confirmed it will not hold a crypto market structure markup in 2025, pushing the process to early 2026 after bipartisan discussions.
This delay signals that lawmakers are still negotiating key issues like regulatory clarity, agency jurisdiction (SEC vs. CFTC), consumer protection, and innovation safeguards. While bipartisan talks continue, the absence of a 2025 markup means regulatory uncertainty remains for exchanges, builders, and investors heading into next year.
For the crypto market, this could translate to:
🔹Slower progress on clear rules
🔹Continued enforcement-first regulation
🔹Increased pressure on companies operating in the U.S.
🔹More time for lobbying and policy shaping behind the scenes
The big question now: Will 2026 finally deliver a clear framework, or just more delays?
