The CLARITY Act, or Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, is set to move to the Senate for markup in January 2025, as confirmed by White House crypto advisor David Sacks. The bipartisan bill seeks to define crypto assets as either securities or commodities, assigning regulatory oversight to the SEC or CFTC. It aligns with efforts under EU Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation to bring legal clarity. The legislation, backed by industry consultations during the 2024 government shutdown, has received support from major firms like Coinbase and Ripple. Over 70% of crypto executives back regulatory clarity, including measures for Countering the Financing of Terrorism.
