Abstract

The article discusses the anticipated delay of a significant U.S. cryptocurrency market bill due to lawmakers prioritizing housing legislation in response to President Donald Trump's affordability initiatives. The Senate Banking Committee is expected to postpone discussions on the digital-asset legislation, which aims to clarify the jurisdictional roles of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, until late February or March. This shift in focus comes as lawmakers respond to concerns about housing costs, which are a major expense for Americans and a political liability for Republicans following recent electoral losses. Additionally, the Agriculture Committee plans to release its own version of digital-asset legislation, which will need to be reconciled with the Banking Committee's proposal.
