The US Senate Banking Committee released updated text for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (H.R. 3633), which allocates regulatory jurisdiction over digital assets between the SEC and CFTC, establishes customer protections, addresses illicit finance and decentralised finance concerns, and creates a bankruptcy regime for digital commodities. The bill faces opposition from major banking trade groups and Democratic senators who argue it puts local lending at risk and contains loopholes, whilst the Blockchain Association supports it as a major step toward clear rules.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Fintech. Wire is Fusion42's founder-focused intelligence feed: each story is connected to the funds and startups it names — every one with a live profile on Raise or Scout — so founders can follow the capital and the momentum behind the headline rather than just the headline itself. Wire analysis is one of the live surfaces Arthur reasons over.

◆ The Wire takeaway

If you build crypto infrastructure, stablecoins, or DeFi products, the rulebook just got written and becomes enforceable in 360 days. The SEC and CFTC now have clear lanes; move fast to understand which regulator owns your product, because the loopholes close when the rules land.
