#CryptoClarityAct
What is the CLARITY Act?
Officially, this law is known as the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025, and it is a 236-page bill making its way through Congress.
It is the first serious attempt to establish a clear national rulebook for cryptocurrencies in the United States. Congressman French Hill introduced the bill, which has rare support from both Republicans and Democrats, indicating that Washington acknowledges that this has been long overdue.
At its core, the CLARITY Act answers a simple yet crucial question: who regulates what?
Currently, cryptocurrency companies in the United States are stuck in a state of ambiguity. Is your token a security or a commodity? Is it regulated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), or both? The CLARITY Act changes that.
Instead of leaving things open to interpretations, the law establishes clear legal definitions for different types of digital assets. Based on these definitions, it designates the appropriate regulatory authority. It also establishes a framework, achieves consistency, and most importantly, allows for predictability.
For cryptocurrencies to grow, trust and clarity are not optional. This law could finally achieve both.
