The 2024 U.S. elections have reshaped Washington, but the legislative work on crypto remains unfinished as the next Congress inherits the task of establishing clear, lasting digital-asset rules. The Blockchain Association's Lindsay Fraser framed the priority as protecting consumers while keeping American innovation competitive. The article offers no specific token prices, TVL, volumes, market caps, or funding figures, focusing instead on the policy agenda. It matters because the lack of durable crypto rules leaves U.S. market structure unresolved. What to watch next is how the incoming Congress advances consumer-protection and innovation-focused digital-asset legislation.
