#USHouseMarketStructureDraft According to Odaily, a new draft proposal from the U.S. House of Representatives seeks to clarify how digital commodity transactions are classified. As highlighted by Forbes journalist Eleanor Terrett, the draft—specifically on page 49—states that transactions involving the sale of digital commodities are not considered securities, as long as they don’t grant the buyer ownership rights, claims to profits, or access to the issuer’s assets. In simple terms, buying and selling digital commodities on secondary markets won’t automatically fall under U.S. securities laws unless those transactions give the purchaser a stake in the underlying business. This clarification could bring more legal certainty to crypto trading and potentially boost liquidity in secondary markets.
