Federal Reserve Board member Christopher Waller said the process regarding cryptocurrency regulation has reached a deadlock in Congress.

“The Cryptocurrency Enthusiasm That Grew After Donald Trump Is Fading”

Waller stated that political and institutional disagreements have been particularly decisive in the progress of comprehensive regulations concerning market structure.

Waller stated that he hoped the Fed’s previously proposed “Skinny Accounts” model of limited digital accounts could preempt potential legal disputes, but that no concrete progress had been made in this direction. He also noted that the euphoria in the crypto markets following Donald Trump’s re-election had begun to wane recently.
