Washington held a third round of talks between crypto executives, banking groups and administration officials as lawmakers work on comprehensive digital asset legislation. Disagreement over stablecoin rewards remains key obstacle preventing Senate vote.
Administration has floated compromise that would allow platforms to offer incentives tied only to transaction activity, not passive yield on idle balances. No agreement was reached, though participants described discussions as constructive, Cointelegraph reported.
White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt proposed narrowing reward structures so exchanges could compensate users only for payment activity. Yield on stored balances would effectively be excluded.
Executives from Ripple and Coinbase said talks were substantive and showed progress toward workable framework.
