The Regulatory Fog around Crypto in the US is clearing

Published Wed, 19 Feb 2025 00:24:14 GMT

The US is usually at the forefront of emerging trends, but that’s not the case with cryptocurrencies. Multiple financial institutions including Coinbase, Ripple, and others have called out the lawmakers for their negligence in devising a regulatory structure around crypto. Despite having no regulatory clarity on the status of crypto, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has been going after the crypto exchanges with full might, citing obscure regulations.However, that might change sooner than you think as lawmakers have introduced a 162-page bill yet again in hopes of clearing up the fog surrounding cryptocurrencies. If the US Congress passes a bill that involves cryptocurrency, it would have a profound impact on crypto prices, as the US is a huge market for crypto.If you currently own or are thinking about getting into crypto, now is as good a time as any.
