CoinVoice has learned that, according to The Block, Ohio Republican Senator Moreno stated that negotiations surrounding the cryptocurrency market structure bill are "quite frustrating," with Democrats and Republicans planning to meet on Tuesday. On Monday, at the Blockchain Association policy summit held in Washington, D.C., Moreno elaborated on the discussions regarding what this broader bill should include. Moreno said, "I am not willing to rush out a bad bill just to show that we passed something. It is better not to make a deal than to make a bad deal." The respective market structure bill versions from the House and Senate still await coordination. The House passed its version of the (Clarity bill) in July. Although the Senate's proposal is not significantly different, passing a bill in the Senate is generally more challenging than in the House. Previously, Senate Banking Committee Chairman and Republican Tim Scott had stated that the committee's bill revision hearing on December 17 or 18 is "feasible." However, on Monday, Senator and Democrat Mark Warner revealed that it is quite difficult to complete the bill revision hearing before the holidays, as they are still waiting for the White House to comment on the quorum and ethical standards issues.
