The US Senate recently approved a massive infrastructure package that would make millions of investments into local infrastructure. What many politicians probably didn’t expect was that the cryptocurrency industry would start rallying against them.
What sparked the debate was the definition of “broker” in the context of cryptocurrencies that would have made every miner and developer a broker.
While there have been proposals to update the definition to “person responsible for regularly providing any service effectuating transfers of digital assets on behalf of another person.” this update has ultimately not found its way in the bill leaving experts to fear overregulation stifling the industry.
On a positive note, this development shows that cryptocurrency advocates are now a political force to be reckoned with, with influencers like Ashton Kutcher and several senators lobbying for favourable legislation.
