Overview
Ahead of a scheduled Senate Banking Committee markup, the crypto market structure bill has entered a rapid amendment phase that is sharpening disputes over stablecoin “rewards,” yield-like features, and DeFi-related provisions. As lawmakers circulate large amendment lists and industry voices react, the bill’s next iteration is becoming a test of how far Congress will go in restricting or defining stablecoin incentives while also addressing broader market-structure questions and developer-related concerns.
