Regulation & Institutions

CLARITY Act

Also: Digital Asset Market Clarity Act

US market-structure legislation that aims to define which digital assets are treated as commodities and which as securities, and to divide oversight between the CFTC and the SEC. It passed the House in 2025 but has not become law, and a Senate vote to advance it failed in September 2026, so check current coverage before relying on any status.

General education, not investment, legal or tax advice. Markets and regulation change quickly: where a definition depends on current law or on a recent event, check the latest coverage before relying on it.
