The release of the US crypto market structure bill has been pushed back as industry representatives meet with legislative staffers this week to review revised stablecoin yield compromise language. The compromise, spearheaded by Senators Angela Alsobrooks (D-Md.) and Thom Tillis (R-N.C.), initially banned yield based solely on stablecoin balances while allowing companies to pay out yield based on activities, though the crypto industry had concerns with the language. Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) expects a markup hearing later in April, requiring the bill to be published at least 48 hours before the hearing under Senate Banking Committee rules. Outstanding concerns include how decentralized finance (DeFi) might be defined and regulated in the bill, and whether it will address President Trump's family involvement with crypto projects. The stablecoin yield provisions remain the most prominent issue holding up passage of the comprehensive market structure legislation.
