US Senate Ag. Chair: “We’ve got an excellent chance” to pass digital asset regs

US Senate Agriculture Chair John Boozman tells me market structure reform has "excellent chance" of passing and getting signed into law this year. Talks expected to ramp up soon after Congress returns from its two-week Easter vacation Monday.

The Senate Banking and House Financial Services Committees are still reconciling their differences on their competing bipartisan stablecoin bills. After that — which is seen as a trial balloon for other digital asset bills — Republican leaders like Boozman want the new market structure measure they’re crafting next queue.
