U.S. Crypto Market Structure Bill Gains Bipartisan Support, Trump Administration Backs Legislation

Gate News message, April 25 — Senator Cynthia Lummis signaled on April 25 that Congress is positioned to advance a comprehensive crypto market structure bill with bipartisan backing and support from the Trump administration. “We have bipartisan support. We have President Trump’s support. This is our moment,” Lummis stated.

The proposed legislation aims to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets in the United States, addressing current regulatory gaps and overlapping rules. The bill seeks to categorize digital assets as either securities or commodities, reducing compliance uncertainty for crypto exchanges, token issuers, and institutional platforms. The framework is designed to balance investor protection with continued innovation in the sector.

The bipartisan momentum reflects growing recognition among U.S. lawmakers that a unified crypto policy is essential as other jurisdictions advance their own digital asset regulations. The political alignment across parties and executive branch support suggests accelerated legislative progress.
