The president of the United States is still the final obstacle to the SEC’s problematic anti-crypto resolution being recalled.

Senators from the United States passed H.J. Res. 109, a resolution that revokes Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), by a vote of 60 to 38. Many lawmakers and business leaders have denounced the commission’s rule as stifling innovation because it forces banks to maintain capital maintained against their customers’ digital assets on their balance sheets.
CryptoCaster Quick Check:
The Blockchain Association, a crypto advocacy group, said that the Senate vote, which resulted in a stunning 60 “Yeas,” “sends a strong signal that both houses of Congress, across the political divide, clearly disapprove of this rule.”
To “protect investors in crypto-asset markets and to safeguard the broader financial system,” President Joe Biden stated he intended to veto the bill prior to the resolution being passed by the U.S. House of Representatives.
The CEO and founder of the Blockchain Trade Association Digital Chamber, Perianne Boring, thinks that the White House might be forced to “rethink its strategy and position” if 21 Democratic senators support the bill. “The tides are turning for crypto in Washington,” in her words.
Outside of politics, the Biden administration might face pressure because not just the cryptocurrency community wants Biden to sign H.J. Res. 109. “President Biden to move quickly to sign this resolution into law to help protect American consumers,” the American Bankers Association has publicly urged.

Billionaire owners like Elon Musk, Larry Fink (BlackRock), and Jamie Dimon (JP Morgan Chase) often have a strong influence on the hidden agendas surrounding the paradigm shift brought about by cryptocurrency and emerging Web3 technologies. CryptoCaster stands apart. We have no billionaire owner or shareholders to please. Our journalism is dedicated to serving the public interest in crypto development and institutional disruptions, not profit motives.
We avoid the pitfall of much U.S. and global media, which often resorts to false equivalence in the name of neutrality and retail consumer protection. While fairness and transparency guide everything we do, we recognize that there is a right and wrong stance in the fight against fiat global banking interests and the monetary reconstruction driven by the emerging crypto ecology.
When we report on issues like the FTX, Binance, and Ripple crises, we’re not afraid to name names and uncover the truth. As a crypto sentinel, we offer a fresh, outsider perspective on global monetary disruption—something often missing from the insular American and European media bubble.
