**[Negotiations on the U.S. Crypto Market Structure Bill Continue, Potentially Delayed Until January Next Year]** Odaily Planet Daily News: Negotiations in the U.S. Senate regarding the crypto market structure bill may be delayed until January next year due to unresolved points of contention. The legislative text has been privately circulated among industry insiders, and industry executives briefly reviewed the current draft during a meeting at the White House on Thursday. The meeting was chaired by Patrick Witt, crypto advisor to U.S. President Donald Trump. The negotiations involve Senate Democrats, Republicans, the White House, and the crypto industry, with four major points of contention still needing resolution. These include ethical standards for government officials participating in digital assets, particularly U.S. President Donald Trump's involvement, whether stablecoins should be tied to yields, and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) jurisdiction over tokens and its authority in handling decentralized finance (DeFi). Patrick Witt stated on the X platform that the White House and Senate Republicans "share a unified stance on the need to protect software developers and DeFi." Despite the disagreements, the intensity and pace of the negotiations remain high. Cody Carbone, CEO of Digital Chamber, expressed that all parties have a genuine desire and motivation to finalize the legislation, with substantial progress expected early next year.
