Former CFTC Commissioner Brian Quintenz stated at Korea Blockchain Week 2026 that the Clarity Act is not the sole path to achieving regulatory certainty for cryptocurrencies. He emphasized that existing legislative frameworks are not the only solution for establishing clear rules in the digital asset space. Quintenz highlighted that both the SEC and CFTC possess exemption authorities that can be utilized immediately to address current regulatory gaps. This approach offers an alternative mechanism for providing clarity without waiting for new congressional legislation to pass.
