The US Congress is set to accelerate regulation issues in the crypto market next week, with Senator Lummis leading the way by releasing a draft bill. The core point of this draft is straightforward—providing a clear legal definition for digital assets and thoroughly clarifying the boundaries between securities and commodities.

This is of great significance for the future regulatory framework of BTC, ETH, and other digital assets. Once the boundaries are clear, the rules for trading markets (including spot and derivatives markets) will have a legal basis. Industry experts generally believe that the advancement of such legislation will directly impact the compliance status of mainstream cryptocurrencies and also give market participants more definite policy expectations. The Senate's actions next week are worth ongoing attention.

Finally, someone has sorted this out. It has always been the most profitable in the fuzzy space. --- Lummis's move is fierce. Clear division between securities and commodities. The fate of BTC depends on this move. --- Next week, Congress will make a statement. I bet 5 USDT it will cause a stir. --- It sounds good, but the actual implementation depends on the details. Don't celebrate too early. --- Wait, if this really passes, what about altcoins? --- Clear regulations have both advantages and disadvantages. The crypto circle will be half cooled down. --- Regulatory status sounds like being put in a cage. Not very pleasant. --- Finally, no more guessing. Although the result may not be what we want.

Lummis is serious this time, finally clarifying the identity issue of the coin. The market is now waiting to see how it will move next week.

Finally, someone wants to clarify this matter. It was about time to do so. Lummis really came up with something this time; clear categorization is the key. Wait, will it still end up a mess? Americans do things like this. Does this mean BTC and ETH are saved? No, it depends on how the final version is written. Starting next week, let's watch the show. It feels like another half-year of fussing. The polite way to say it is "clear definition," but honestly, it's just more rhetoric. Finally, I can breathe a sigh of relief. The previous ambiguity was truly extreme.

Finally, someone is going to clarify the identity of the currency; otherwise, the daily Schrödinger's security status is really annoying.

Finally, someone is going to clarify these rules, but it seems like it will take a long time to argue...

Finally, someone is taking serious action. If this Lummis bill actually passes, it would be incredible. Can BTC and ETH catch a break?

Someone is finally going to sort this out, Lummis's move is pretty good. Wait, can this really be implemented? Feels like the same old story. What exactly are BTC and ETH? Still hanging in the balance.
