US Senate to vote on advancing landmark crypto bill
asserted
Senate → vote → bill
The U.S. Senate is set to vote on Tuesday on whether to advance once-in-a-generation cryptocurrency legislation, potentially determining the fate of the bill as Republican Senate leaders grapple with a limited calendar in a busy election year.
asserted
leaders → set → year
The bill, dubbed the Clarity Act, would create a regulatory framework for digital assets, which crypto companies say would put them on more solid legal footing.
asserted
companies → dub → footing
The deep-pocketed industry has spent hundreds of millions of dollars campaigning to advance the bill.
asserted
industry → spend → bill
But it remained unclear if the legislation could garner the 60 votes it needs to advance, even after Senate Republicans on Sunday released a new text in an effort to address concerns from the banking industry and some Democrats.
uncertain
Republicans → remain → industry
The Senate is set to hold its vote shortly after 2 p.m. EDT (1800 GMT).
asserted
Senate → set → EDT
Although passage of the Clarity Act would be positive for the crypto ecosystem — and has been broadly supported by the crypto industry — investors and analysts have said that the crypto market had mostly priced in that the bill would not be passed into law in the foreseeable future, Reuters reported on Monday.
asserted
Reuters → support → Monday
"Another delay would be negative but probably not a new regime shock, whereas passage would reduce legal uncertainty and could unlock additional institutional activity," said Can-Luca Köymen, investment strategist at digital asset bank Sygnum.
uncertain
Köymen → reduce → Sygnum
While the vote is procedural, it is seen as a key test and little time on the calendar remains for Senate Republicans to try to revive the bill if the vote fails, according to analysts.
uncertain
vote → see → analysts
OFFICEHOLDER CONFLICTS IN FOCUS
Democrats have been pushing for the bill to include stricter limits on public officeholders profiting off their own crypto ventures, a push in part aimed at U.S. President Donald Trump's meme coin and World Liberty Financial, a crypto company that is run by his sons.
asserted
that → push → sons
Trump in June disclosed that he had made $1.4 billion off his crypto ventures.
asserted
he → disclose → ventures
The new text of the bill gives state attorneys general more power to enforce the restrictions on public officeholders, and would require political officials to divest any existing significant financial interests in crypto-focused companies or place those assets in a blind trust.
asserted
text → give → trust
The revised version of the bill also looks to address long-held concerns from the banking sector about a provision of the legislation that would allow certain crypto tokens known as stablecoins to compete with bank deposits, potentially harming lending.
asserted
tokens → look → lending
Banking groups on Monday panned the new draft, saying that the new language did little to ease their fears that stablecoin rewards could eventually hinder the ability of banks to extend credit.
uncertain
rewards → pan → credit
