The CLARITY Act aims to clearly divide crypto market regulation between the SEC and CFTC, giving broader authority to the CFTC over digital commodity spot markets and maintaining SEC control over digital securities. Its passage could bring statutory clarity to crypto regulation in the U.S., supporting asset classification, market protections, and registration requirements.
