US Senate Majority Leader John Thune moved to advance legislation that would establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies, potentially delivering a major policy victory for President Donald Trump and the digital asset industry, Reuters reported.
Thune, a Republican, filed early Saturday to set up a key procedural vote on the Clarity Act when the Senate returns from its August recess in mid-September. The move could pave the way for a full Senate vote on the legislation, according to the US Senate Press Gallery website.
