The US Senate has officially voted to overturn a US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule that prevents regulated financial firms from holding Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. The legislation, H.J. Res. 109, had previously passed in the US House last week. The decision approves the reversal of the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin (SAB) No. 121.
