US Senate deals blow to crypto industry
Carel de Jager, uitvoerende hoof van Sixpence, gesels oor die Amerikaanse Senaat se besluit om nie ’n nuwe wet oor kriptogeldeenhede te aanvaar nie, en wat dit vir die kriptobedryf kan beteken.
The US Senate's rejection of new cryptocurrency asset legislation leaves the sector without updated federal regulatory clarity, sustaining reliance on existing enforcement-led oversight by agencies such as the SEC. For crypto firms, this outcome prolongs compliance uncertainty and may slow institutional adoption in the US market, while potentially benefiting jurisdictions with clearer digital-asset frameworks.
