U.S. Senate Banking Committee Sets Hearing on Crypto Legislation Next Week
The congressional committee that was a roadblock in the previous session has scheduled a Feb. 26 hearing on "bipartisan legislative frameworks" for crypto.
What to know:
The U.S. Senate Banking Committee has scheduled a hearing to discuss bipartisan digital assets legislation next week, the panel announced.
This Senate committee was the one that became a bottleneck in the previous congressional session, but it's now run by Senator Tim Scott, a South Carolina Republican who supports crypto.
The hearing will feature testimony from witnesses including lawyers from Kraken and Lightspark.
