Washington, DC – In the wake of the US Senate, adopting its first major crypto law proposal, one of the industry’s chiefolk said that Senator Cynthia Lummis, the last step towards US rules of the crypto sector can take several months to implement, potentially skip the August’s deadline set by President Donald Trump.
The Senate’s recent approval of stablecoin legislation is only one of many steps that potentially remain in turning two related efforts – including pushing towards new rules to manage us digital asset markets – to US law.
When the Lumming was asked for a realistic timeline of this year’s Crypto effort, the Lummis told a Bitcoin Policy Institute audience in Washington, “I believe by the end of this calendar year” to have completed all the related legislation. Wyoming Republican said she would be “extremely disappointed” if it wasn’t.
“We’re in a good place,” she said at the Wednesday event. But chairman of the Senats Banking Committee’s Digital Assets Sub -Committee also led a hearing on Tuesday to make a first attempt to discuss the market structure legislation in this chamber, acknowledging that it will not be easy. She hinted at the delicacy of the Bipartisan wave that helped create 18 democratic voices (for 68 in total) On the stablecoin bill last week, which she responded to “a dental exercise.”
At her Tuesday hearing, a deficiency of Democrats emerged to question witnesses, and she made some remarks at the end and revealed that her attention is approaching that the parties are approaching the efforts differently.
“I will not come up with a piece of legislation that the other side of the time feels that they have not had sufficient input in, and so it will require me to go out of my way of pursuing further discussions directly with the other side of the time,” she said, questioning how the pursuit of crypto legislation was split. “It was very bipartisan then, and now it seems not to be, and I do not understand what has changed, at least with regard to this topic.”
Some democratic legislators have demanded that Congress have to insist on these bills, that senior officials, including the president, are not allowed to participate directly in cryptic companies. While Republican legislators have generally thrown themselves away from openly discussing the criticism that Trump’s commitment is the federal government’s corruption, nodded Lummis against this view on Tuesday.
“Maybe this is about concern that some people who have family members in the administration will be advantageous in some way of what we are doing,” she said. “I don’t want that to be the case. I want everyone to be advantageous.”
At the Wednesday event, she noticed that at one point of stableecoin debate in the Senate – there was a setback with the democratic supporters who hit the brakes to criticize some of the bill’s security regulations and also the potential conflicts in Trump’s personal crypto interests.
These Democrats, including Senator Ruben Gallego, came later. But it is unclear how much these legislators will push for the market structure efforts to ban government officials from crypto and whether it would be an agreement for Republicans.
At this time, the US Representative House has been in the lead on the Crypto market structure, after passing its digital asset market clarity law from two committees on the way to the housebaps. But it must now solve on a strategy for how it may or may not be folded stableecoin efforts in this bill or pursue it separately. One option is simply to log out to the Senate’s guidance and establish national innovation for us stableecoins (Genius) ACT that would send this piece to Trump more instantly as he requested in a recent social media post.
The Senate remains the highest obstacle to US legislation, so any house success will run into the need to win broad democratic support in the Senate.
