Source: CryptoNewsNet Original Title: DeFi, ethics disputes remain in Senate crypto bill ahead of Jan. 15 vote Original Link: https://cryptonews.net/news/legal/32236798/ The U.S. Senate Banking Committee is inching closer to agreement on a bipartisan crypto market structure bill, with a vote next week, its chairman said, as industry insiders prepare for a blitz of the Senate offices on Thursday.
