The House Financial Services Committee is set to conduct a field hearing in New York to discuss the CLARITY Act, formally known as the U.S. Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. This development comes after the House passed the bill last year, and it now awaits a Senate floor vote. Industry leaders anticipate the release of updated Senate text next week, which could align with a potential Senate floor appearance as early as July 20. The bill aims to clarify the jurisdictional split between the SEC and CFTC over digital assets, a significant step in crypto market regulation. This hearing is part of a critical legislative period before the August recess, where the bill must secure 60 Senate votes to advance.

Key Takeaways
