SEC Chairman Paul Atkins announced that the Crypto Markets Structure Act is anticipated to be submitted to President Trump for signature within the year. Speaking to Fox Business, Atkins highlighted the bill's importance in offering regulatory clarity to the U.S. crypto industry, following the GENIUS Act of 2025. Despite a delay by the Senate Agriculture Committee, which postponed final consideration until the end of January, Atkins emphasized the bill's role in advancing the president's vision of establishing the U.S. as a leading crypto hub.
