#USHouseMarketStructureDraft
The U.S. House Financial Services Committee released a draft bill on market structure reforms aiming to modernize digital asset regulation. The proposed legislation seeks to clearly define the roles of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), offering clearer rules for crypto firms. It introduces a framework for digital asset intermediaries and sets guidelines for when tokens qualify as securities or commodities. The draft also includes investor protection measures and increased transparency standards. Lawmakers intend to promote innovation while ensuring regulatory clarity and stability in crypto markets. The proposal is still under discussion, with potential revisions expected as industry stakeholders and lawmakers debate its impact on the evolving digital asset landscape.
