Schumer Aims to Pass Crypto Laws by End of 2024

  • Schumer is working for standardised crypto rules by 2024 to keep the U.S. leading in innovation.
  •  Lawmakers in Washington are writing bills to protect stablecoins and digital assets.
  • Crypto’s influence in U.S. elections grows as candidates engage with the industry.

Senate leader Chuck Schumer promises to pass new laws for cryptocurrencies by the end of 2024. He emphasised that straightforward guidelines are necessary to maintain American innovation leadership. During a town hall meeting, Schumer stressed that if action is delayed, the cryptocurrency business may go to nations with less regulations.

Party-Initiated Drive for Crypto Regulations

Members of parliament in Washington are now coming up with laws to control cryptocurrencies. Senators Kirsten Gillibrand and Cynthia Lummis have filed a bill that would outlaw certain stablecoins and set regulations for others. Chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee Debbie Stabenow, intends to review a more comprehensive crypto regulatory bill later this year.

A Republican-led resolution that addressed the framework of the online asset marketplace was approved by the House in May. This statute gives the Commodity Futures Trading Commission dominance over digital commodities and the Securities and Exchange Commission oversight of digital assets tied to financing contracts. The bill received support from both parties.

Schumer, known for passing cross-party legislation, is confident in achieving similar success with crypto oversight.
