The U.S. cryptocurrency bill review was stalled by the Republican members of the Senate Banking Committee, prompting industry participants and lawmakers to seek common ground. Rules on stablecoin yields and CFT compliance remain major points of contention. Coinbase and banks are in discussions, with liquidity and cryptocurrency markets as the central issues. Section 505's tokenized securities regulations are facing criticism, and CEO Brian Armstrong is calling for significant changes or their removal.

According to reporter Eleanor Terrett, industry insiders and lawmakers are actively seeking solutions after the U.S. Senate Banking Committee (Banking GOP) withdrew its consideration of the Clarity Act nearly 24 hours ago. The main point of contention has focused on stablecoin yield issues. If banks, Coinbase, and Democrats can reach an agreement in the coming days, the bill could be "resurrected." There is also controversy over Section 505 regarding tokenized securities, but Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong expressed hope that this provision would be significantly revised or completely removed.
