Pro-crypto lawyer John E Deaton has shared a warning that’s causing concern in the crypto community, If the U.S. Congress fails to pass the GENIUS Act now, then we may not see any strong crypto laws or reforms until 2029. This may sound extreme, but Deaton isn’t alone in thinking this way. Other Messari founder Ryan Selkis stressed that without immediate progress, long-term reforms could be off the table until. GENIUS Act: More Than Just a Crypto Bill Deaton believes the GENIUS Act is something all politicians should support, because it’s not really a “crypto” bill. As Alex Thorn from…
