Derived from CryptoNinjas, the U.S. Congress is advancing the Digital Asset Market Structure Clarity Act, a bill aimed at resolving the regulatory divide between the SEC and CFTC by classifying many digital assets as commodities. The legislation seeks to provide clearer rules for digital asset projects, particularly in DeFi, by establishing three legal categories and assigning oversight responsibilities. Critics, however, warn it may weaken investor protection and anti-money-laundering oversight. The bill passed the House in July 2025 and is now moving to the Senate for further negotiations.
