PANews reported on January 17th, citing Coindesk, that sources familiar with the matter revealed that US Senate Democrats have returned to the negotiating table to discuss the best course of action for a cryptocurrency market structure bill. They held conference calls with representatives of the cryptocurrency industry, and lawmakers discussed next steps in depth. Following the abrupt postponement of the Senate's first vote on the bill this week, Democrats attempted to demonstrate their continued readiness to move forward. The draft bill released this week has drawn significant criticism, and US cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase announced it could not support the version.
