ChainCatcher news, U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent posted on social platform X that the U.S. Senate failed to advance the "GENIUS Act," which is a "missed intergenerational opportunity to expand the dominance of the dollar and the influence of financial innovation."He warned that in the absence of a unified federal regulatory framework, stablecoins will develop amidst fragmented state regulations, which is detrimental to the U.S. maintaining its global leadership and may push digital asset innovation overseas.
