According to Cointelegraph, experts at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium emphasized the urgency for the United States to establish a comprehensive regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies. Despite the European Union's progress with the Markets in Crypto Assets (MiCA) regulation, panelists believe the U.S. can still catch up. Sylvia Favretto, general counsel at Mysten Labs, highlighted the narrow window of opportunity, urging immediate action to avoid falling behind other regions. Stuart Alderoty, Ripple's chief legal officer, stressed the importance of seizing this opportunity to shape the market structure favorably. He warned that failure to do so could result in the U.S. losing its competitive edge to regions like the EU, Asia-Pacific, or the Middle East. The panel, moderated by CNBC host Talia Kaplan, included key figures such as Miles Jennings from a16Z, Summer Mersinger of the Blockchain Association, and Sylvia Favretto. Summer Mersinger, CEO of the Blockchain Association, cautioned that achieving regulatory clarity could be a lengthy process as U.S. lawmakers work towards a cohesive crypto policy ahead of the 2026 midterm elections. The 2024 elections saw Republicans gaining control of the Executive Branch and Congress, providing the Trump administration with the opportunity to advance pro-crypto policies. However, the Republican majority in Congress is slim, with only a seven-seat lead in the House and an eight-seat majority in the Senate. Joe Doll, general counsel at NFT marketplace Magic Eden, noted that the Trump administration has a limited timeframe to implement significant crypto regulations. He warned that midterm elections often shift the balance of power, potentially leading to legislative gridlock that could stall regulatory efforts. Marta Belcher, president of the Blockchain Association, echoed these concerns, pointing out the challenges of passing regulatory policies as representatives focus on re-election campaigns. The urgency for clear crypto regulations remains a critical issue as the U.S. navigates its position in the global crypto landscape.

According to Cointelegraph, U.S. Federal Reserve Governor Christopher Waller has reassured both his colleagues and the private banking sector that there is no reason to fear crypto payments, despite their operation outside the traditional banking framework. Speaking at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium 2025, Waller emphasized that decentralized finance (DeFi) represents merely a new technological method for transferring assets and recording transactions. He urged policymakers and the banking industry to collaborate on developing crypto payment infrastructure, highlighting that the use of smart contracts, tokenization, and distributed ledgers in daily transactions should not be intimidating. Waller's remarks signal the Federal Reserve's gradual shift towards embracing cryptocurrency and its potential role in the U.S. payment system. In a significant move, the Fed recently withdrew its 2022 guidance that discouraged banks from engaging in crypto and stablecoin activities. Additionally, the Fed has concluded its risk-focused "novel activities supervision program" that monitored crypto-related activities. Fed Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman also suggested that staff should be permitted to hold small amounts of cryptocurrency to gain a better understanding of the technology. Waller, who is seen as a leading candidate to succeed Jerome Powell as Fed Chair, could soon have more influence in shaping the Fed's approach to cryptocurrency. Powell's term is set to end in May 2026, and his continuation depends on renomination by U.S. President Donald Trump and Senate confirmation. However, reports indicate that Trump has been pressuring Powell to step down. Waller likened DeFi transactions to everyday debit card purchases, explaining that using stablecoins to buy a memecoin is akin to using a debit card to purchase an apple at a grocery store. He described the process as straightforward: using a digital dollar from a checking account to pay, tapping a debit card on a reader, and receiving a transaction receipt. In the crypto world, this translates to buying a memecoin with a stablecoin, executing the transaction via a smart contract, and recording it on a distributed ledger. The recent enactment of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for US Stablecoins Act is seen by Waller as a crucial step towards stablecoin adoption. He believes this legislation could enable stablecoins to achieve their full potential, aiding in maintaining and expanding the dollar's international role, particularly in high-inflation countries or those with limited access to physical dollars. The stablecoin market, currently valued at $280 billion, is projected by the U.S. Treasury to reach $2 trillion by 2028, driven by a regulatory framework that could boost demand for U.S. Treasury bills. Tether (USDT) and Circle’s USDC (USDC) are the dominant players in the stablecoin sector, with market caps of $167 billion and $67.5 billion, respectively, according to CoinGecko data.

According to PANews, the Wormhole Foundation has raised concerns over LayerZero's proposal to acquire Stargate (STG) for approximately $110 million in ZRO tokens. The foundation believes this offer undervalues Stargate's assets and growth potential. In July, Stargate's bridging volume reached $4 billion, marking a tenfold increase from the previous year, with a total value locked (TVL) of $345 million and an annual revenue projection of $2 million. In response, Wormhole plans to submit a higher bid and has requested a five-day suspension of the current Snapshot voting process. This pause aims to refine the bidding procedure and ensure the interests of STG holders are protected.
