After the U.S. midterm elections, Democrats took control of both chambers of Congress, and expectations for crypto regulation began to shift. According to FXStreet, House Democrats are discussing introducing a more comprehensive market structure bill in the new Congress. Key ideas include:
• Expanding the SEC’s regulatory role while limiting the CFTC’s authority
• Adding restrictions on conflicts of interest in crypto businesses involving the president and federal officials
• Reviving the “Crypto Investors and Consumers Rights Act” proposed by Maxine Waters

The backdrop is that the CLARITY Act failed to pass a procedural vote in the Senate on September 15 this year, with 49 votes in favor and 50 against (60 votes were needed). Republicans say it is more of a “messaging bill,” with little chance of passing in the near term; the new Congress will not convene until January 2027.

For large-cap coins such as $BTC $ETH , the short-term impact is limited. What matters more is that the regulatory approach is shifting from “legislate as soon as possible” to placing greater emphasis on “investor protection.” For reference only; this is not investment advice.
