Cryptocurrency Market Regulation Makes 'Significant Progress,' Aiming to Set Rules for the Entire Digital Asset Industry

By: theblockbeats.news|2025/12/12 13:15:55

BlockBeats News, December 12th. Senator Tim Scott, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, stated that after meeting with top bank executives on Thursday, "substantial progress" has been made in advancing a major cryptocurrency bill towards becoming law. Scott met on Thursday with Brian Moynihan of Bank of America, Jane Fraser of Citigroup, and Charlie Scharf of Wells Fargo to discuss this landmark legislation.

The bill aims to establish rules for the entire digital asset industry and empower regulatory agencies such as the SEC and CFTC. This week, these three bank CEOs are expected to meet with senators to discuss the cryptocurrency legislative proposal. The meetings are reported to be held separately with Democrats and Republicans, both of which are described as having a "friendly atmosphere."

Sources familiar with the matter revealed that the meetings discussed topics such as yield, decentralized finance, and anti-money laundering. The banking industry association believes that there are gaps that need to be filled in the GENIUS Act, which became law earlier this summer. They stated that the issue lies in the Act's insufficient restrictions on stablecoin issuers paying interest to holders, which could make these assets more attractive as stores of value and credit mechanisms rather than just a means of payment, thus introducing "distorted market incentives for the banking industry."

Furthermore, the banking industry group also believes that the restrictions imposed by the GENIUS Act can easily be circumvented by exchanges, brokers, and other affiliated parties.
