There is a latest update on this week's cryptocurrency regulatory developments. Senator John Boozman, chairman of the Senate Agriculture, Nutrition, and Forestry Committee, announced that legislation related to the structure of the crypto market will be postponed until the end of the month. However, this does not affect the discussion and progress on the CLARITY Act in the Senate this Thursday — the two topics are advancing at different paces. While both market structure legislation and the CLARITY Act aim to regulate the crypto industry, their focus areas differ. The market structure legislation is more focused on building the overall framework of trading markets, whereas the CLARITY Act addresses specific issues of regulatory clarity. According to the schedule, the discussion before the weekend will primarily focus on CLARITY, with the market structure-related content being addressed only at the end of the month. This phased approach also reflects a more cautious attitude of the U.S. Congress toward crypto policy.

Still procrastinating, those Americans just love this routine Only dealing with market structure at the end of the month, this pace is really incredible CLARITY first, proceed cautiously everyone This phased approach, honestly, is just because they haven't figured it out yet First clarify the definition before discussing the trading framework, logically it makes sense, right? Those in the know understand, waiting this long, they will definitely change their mind again

You're using delaying tactics again, talking about market structure at the end of the month. I'm tired of this routine. CLARITY will be pushed first, and the market structure will be addressed at the end of the month. The US Congress really knows how to keep us guessing. Talking about phased progress sounds nice, but in reality, they haven't figured it out yet. They'll wait until CLARITY passes before moving on to the market structure, and this pace feels like fishing. Splitting the two bills apart—are they trying to spread out the pressure? I bet five DOGE that the market structure legislation at the end of the month will be delayed again. Finally, there's a clear timeline, although the end-of-month plan still seems uncertain.

Another delay, delay, delay. The efficiency of the US Congress is truly remarkable. CLARITY will be released this week, and the market structure will be discussed at the end of the month. This phased approach seems like a precaution against issues. If this passes truly, the crypto community can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Wait, will they change their minds again by the end of the month? It seems like the lawmakers haven't even made up their minds themselves.

Another delaying tactic, only working on market structure at the end of the month. What's the pace here? CLARITY first? So it's all just to buy more time. Buzman's move is really steady, going for both hands. Anyway, take it slow. We can wait. Wait, wait, wait. If we keep messing around like this, we won't finish even by the end of last year. Phased progress is just politicians' talk; in reality, they haven't figured it out. Claiming caution actually means no consensus, just bickering. Good grief, splitting two bills and still thinking of tackling them separately? Only dealing with market structure at the end of the month, so our positions will just keep getting trapped. This policy pace really makes people want to fall asleep.

Starting to use delay tactics again, only doing it at the end of the month? Feels like Congress just wants to drag it out slowly. Buzman's move this time is quite interesting, with two lines progressing in parallel. Is the CLARITY bill coming this week? Looking forward to the show. Alright, phased approach is better than a one-size-fits-all, at least giving the market some buffer. Cautious attitude? I think it's just not knowing how to handle it. CLARITY will be set before the end of the month, so we need to keep a close eye this weekend. Feels like they're still doing Tai Chi, are they really going to take serious action? Postponing again and again, when will it ever be implemented if this keeps up? Splitting the two bills into separate actions, are they playing political balancing?

Here comes the delaying tactic again. I'm tired of the phased approach in the US Congress. --- Separating clarity and market structure—is this waiting for a market signal? --- Nothing until the end of the month, the crypto world will face another month of uncertainty. --- CLARITY will be launched this week, it feels like just for show to the market. --- Discussing separately actually makes it more confusing. I really don't understand this logic. --- Congress's cautious attitude = no one truly understands crypto. Just say it straight. --- Don't talk about phased progress; they probably haven't thought it through. --- Another wave at the end of the month, another month of holding and watching. --- CLARITY is a good name, but the entire process is zero clarity.

Still procrastinating, huh? Anyway, these bills will just have to wait in the end. Let's talk about it at the end of the month. It's just a routine.
