US Senator Gillibrand says crypto market structure vote could happen by August

Cointelegraph
Senator Kirsten Gillibrand suggests a vote on crypto market structure legislation could occur by August if key conditions are met.

Summary

US Senator Kirsten Gillibrand stated that a vote on the CLARITY Act, which focuses on digital asset market structure, could occur before the August recess. To reach this goal, lawmakers must address three specific areas: consumer protection, illicit finance, and mandatory ethics provisions. Gillibrand emphasized that an ethics clause is non-negotiable to prevent government officials from benefiting from insider status. While some progress has been made regarding stablecoin yield, the bill currently awaits further action in the Senate Banking Committee.
