The new draft from the U.S. House of Representatives represents a **significant advance** in defining the legal framework for *digital commodities*. By specifying that secondary transactions are not automatically classified as securities (unless they grant rights over a business or its profits), it provides:
✅ **Legal certainty**: Better distinguishes between *commodity* assets (like Bitcoin) and tokenized securities, reducing ambiguities for exchanges and investors.
✅ **Boost to the secondary market**: By not requiring compliance with securities laws in P2P transactions or platforms, it fosters greater liquidity and adoption.
✅ **Protection for the ecosystem**: Prevents excessive regulation of crypto assets that function as mediums of exchange or stores of value.
This balanced approach could serve as a **model for other jurisdictions**, demonstrating that it is possible to regulate without stifling innovation. However, the challenge will be to apply these criteria consistently, especially in edge cases.
🔮 *The future of crypto in the U.S. seems to be heading towards a clearer framework, but there is still work to be done to harmonize it with global standards.*

New U.S. House Draft Clarifies Digital Commodity Transactions
According to Odaily, a new draft discussion on market structure from the U.S. House of Representatives aims to clarify the classification of digital commodity transactions. As reported by Forbes journalist Eleanor Terrett, the draft specifies on page 49 that transactions involving the sale of digital commodities do not constitute securities, provided they do not grant the purchaser ownership rights in the issuer's business, profits, or assets. In essence, buying and selling digital commodities on the secondary market, rather than directly from the issuer, will not automatically trigger U.S. securities laws unless the sale confers ownership or claims to the company's profits or assets.
