The US Senate has reached an agreement on cryptocurrency regulations.

Important Developments in Crypto Regulation

Macquarie reported that bipartisan discussions in the U.S. Senate are gaining momentum. Democrats are currently considering a Republican market structure proposal.

The mentioned Senate plan aims to give the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) more authority. These developments could facilitate a compromise between the two sides by 2026.

At the same time, Macquarie forecasts that U.S. regulators could complete the GENIUS Act and stablecoin rules within a similar timeframe. This could make it possible for a comprehensive federal crypto framework to be implemented by early 2026.
