The U.S. Senate is set to conduct a markup session for the CLARITY Act in January 2026, marking a significant step forward in digital asset regulation. This follows the bill's passage in the House in mid-2025. The CLARITY Act aims to address regulatory ambiguities by defining securities and digital commodities, with a focus on Countering the Financing of Terrorism concerns. This development indicates a shift from discussion to legislative action, as lawmakers work to establish a clearer regulatory framework for the crypto market. The EU's Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation is being considered as a model for these efforts, highlighting the global influence on U.S. regulatory strategies.
