U.S. senators have filed over 75 amendments ahead of this week’s crypto market structure legislation hearing, according to a document obtained by CoinDesk.
The amendments would tackle stablecoin yield, DeFi sections, government corruption, and software developer protections. Some proposals range from prohibiting stablecoin yields entirely to blocking public officials from profiting from crypto interests.
Senator Chris Van Hollen proposed an anti-corruption provision and an anti-touting requirement mandating disclosure of financial interests.
A Democratic aide said negotiations around ethics are still happening, with no agreement reached yet.
Senator Lisa Blunt Rochester raised concerns over quorum requirements, pointing to bipartisan issues at the SEC and CFTC, which are currently run solely by Republicans.
Amendments were filed by senators from both parties, including Elizabeth Warren, Raphael Warnock, Cynthia Lummis, Tim Scott, and others.
The proposed changes will be discussed in the Senate Banking Committee hearing, marking a key moment for U.S. crypto regulation.
