US Crypto Market Structure Act: Paving the Way for Institutional Investment Benchmark, a US investment bank, projects that the proposed Crypto Market Structure Act (CLARITY) could be a game-changer for institutional cryptocurrency adoption. Their analysis highlights the bill's potential to resolve long-standing regulatory uncertainties, a major hurdle for institutional investors. According to Benchmark's Mark Palmer, the Act's primary benefit lies in categorizing cryptocurrencies as either commodities or securities. This clear definition establishes a regulatory framework, allowing institutions to confidently develop digital asset products and integrate cryptocurrencies into their portfolios without the fear of violating unclear regulations. The clarity provided by the Act should boost the creation of crypto ETFs, institutional custody solutions, and other investment vehicles that cater to the needs of large investors. The impact of clear regulations will further mature the crypto market. ```
