A bipartisan group of senators is close to reaching a consensus on the text of the stablecoin GENIUS Act after days of intense renegotiation, which could allow the bill's advancement process to continue.

The goal (which is subject to change) is to hold a final vote before the May 26 recess and before the reconciliation process begins, although the timeline may be delayed depending on whether a procedural agreement can be reached with Democrats.

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase Global Inc., said on Bloomberg TV on Wednesday that the company continues to watch for M&A opportunities after reaching an agreement to acquire derivatives exchange Deribit for $2.9 billion earlier this month. He pointed out that the company has a strong balance sheet and as a public company has liquidity available for mergers and acquisitions, but will choose carefully and seek the right time to make a move. Armstrong specifically mentioned that the company is particularly focused on the international market, targeting companies that have a similar philosophy and can drive Coinbase's product development and growth. When asked whether Coinbase would consider acquiring stablecoin issuer Circle (Coinbase has previously reached a revenue sharing agreement with Circle), he responded that "there is no relevant news to announce today."

When Dan Finlay, co-founder of Ethereum wallet MetaMask, was asked in an interview on the "Crypto Beat" podcast whether he would create a native MetaMask token, he responded: "Maybe, if a token is issued, it will be promoted directly in the wallet, and users can find the link directly in the wallet." Although MetaMask currently has no specific token issuance plans, Finlay believes that under the relatively loose regulation of the Trump administration, token issuance is safer. He hopes to use this opportunity to break boundaries and set a precedent. Finlay pointed out that securities laws are still securities laws, and many projects may still operate in a "gray area." He also worried that potential MASK tokens would be used by scammers, saying that relevant information would only be published in the wallet and on the official website.
