The U.S. Senate voted to halt the stablecoin bill, citing procedural delays and tension surrounding Trump’s crypto policies.

## **What’s the Scoop?**
- **Cloture Vote**: The Senate voted via cloture on Thursday, ceasing work on the stablecoin bill due to the involved procedural process.
- **Political Friction**: Senators from both sides expressed frustration, with John Thune criticizing Democrats' revisions leading to six bill iterations.
- **Lack of Bill Text**: Senators like Raphael Warnock emphasized that critical elements like the GENIUS Act still lacked finalized bill text.
