▌TD Cowen: It is unlikely that US cryptocurrency legislation will be passed before the end of the year
Jaret Seiberg of TD Cowen's Washington research team said in a report on Monday that there is little chance of progress in cryptocurrency legislation before 2024. U.S. lawmakers are currently in recess and will not reconvene until after the election, leaving only the transition period after the election to pass bills. Although the possibility of passing the stablecoin bill is high, Congress still needs to prioritize the government funding bill and the National Defense Authorization Act. In addition, the election of Sherrod Brown, chairman of the Senate Banking Committee, has also added uncertainty to crypto legislation.
▌ FTX releases update on proposed settlement for preferred shareholders
FTX Official disclosed on the X platform that FTX creditors are providing updates on the proposed settlement with preferred shareholders. FTX will return 100% of the assets under its control to creditors under the Chapter 11 plan. The Department of Justice is responsible for controlling the distribution of assets confiscated through criminal cases and has made it clear that preferred shareholders are victims just like creditors under criminal law. FTX and preferred shareholders have competing claims for the proceeds of confiscation. While the Department of Justice will decide how to reconcile these competing claims, if the Department of Justice accepts the settlement, FTX believes that the plan is fair to both parties and avoids a protracted dispute. In this settlement, FTX asked the Department of Justice to agree to a centralized distribution process through the FTX Ch. 11 plan to speed up distributions to creditors and avoid a lot of redundant expenses.
