There is a sense, however, that the bill will become law sooner rather than later.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>We have also learned from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell testifying to Congress that the Fed\u00a0sees no use in a China-style blanket ban on cryptocurrency, eyeing tighter regulation of stablecoins instead. The latter narrative has been thick in the air for some time, and now it appears that President Joe Biden and his administration have made up their minds on how to go about reining stablecoins in.<\/p>\n<p>Below is the concise version of this <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/news\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"2\" title=\"News\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">news<\/a>letter.

Otherwise, he risks concluding his inaugural year in office without a sufficient record of legislative victories.<\/p>\n<p>The vote can be expected any day now, and if Democrats manage to agree internally, Republicans will have no means of getting in the way.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"CFTC_slaps_Krakens_wrist\"><\/span>CFTC slaps Kraken\u2019s wrist<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Commodity Futures Trading Commission\u2019s $1.25-million penalty handed to Kraken for offering margined retail commodity transactions without proper registration had already felt like an amiable finger wag. Then, Commissioner Dawn Stump added to this sentiment by issuing a concurring statement where she admitted that the existing CFTC guidance falls short on offering clarity to firms that facilitate digital asset retail commodity trading.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Central_bank_currencies_loom_large\"><\/span>Central bank currencies loom large<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Nigeria is still on track to\u00a0roll out its digital currency, the eNaira, any day now after the nation\u2019s Federal High Court approved the initiative. Meanwhile, global financial institutions, such as the Bank for International Settlements, continue their efforts to flesh out the design and common operational principles for the world\u2019s central bank digital currencies. A BIS report, for one, focuses on the issues of interoperability between the future digitized monetary systems and their traditional counterparts.<\/p>\n<p><template data-name=\"subscription_form\" data-type=\"law_decoded\"><\/template><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
