#CryptoClarityAct The bill, which seeks to define how digital assets are regulated in the United States, now heads to the House Financial Services Committee for further consideration before it can proceed to a full vote in the House.
The legislation is designed to bring clear rules to the crypto industry, particularly around whether digital assets are classified as securities or commodities.
This distinction will determine whether the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) or the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) will have jurisdiction over specific assets.
