#CryptoClarityAct landmark bill passed by the U.S. House of Representatives on July 17, 2025, aimed at providing regulatory clarity for digital assets.
🎯 Purpose of the Act:
Defines how digital assets are classified: either as securities or commodities
Clarifies the roles of regulatory bodies like the SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission) and the CFTC (Commodity Futures Trading Commission)
Establishes new categories of intermediaries such as:
Digital Commodity Brokers
Digital Commodity Dealers
Digital Commodity Exchanges🔑 Key Highlights:
Decentralized tokens (e.g., Bitcoin, Ethereum) will be treated as commodities and fall under CFTC oversight.
Investment-based tokens (like ICO tokens) will be classified as securities at launch but may shift to commodities over time if they meet a "sufficient decentralization" test.
Safe harbor provisions will allow developers to build without immediate regulatory penalties during the early stages of a project.
The Act encourages innovation while increasing transparency, consumer protection, and market structure clarity.
