Odaily Odaily reports that one year after the US House of Representatives passed the CLARITY Act, the bill has still not moved forward in the Senate. On July 17, House members held a hearing at Federal Hall National Memorial in New York to discuss how the bill could establish clearer rules for the digital asset market.
House Majority Whip Tom Emmer stated that nearly 80 Democrats joined Republicans in passing the CLARITY Act, but the Senate has yet to make measurable progress. Participants in the hearing included representatives from Nova Labs, Bullish, WisdomTree, and Coin Center.
House Financial Services Committee Chairman French Hill noted that even with the GENIUS Act and dollar-backed stablecoin laws in place, without a market structure bill, the digital asset ecosystem still lacks the rule system needed to support its operation. Senator Cynthia Lummis said on July 14 that the Senate version of the CLARITY Act is ready, and the text of the bill will be released within days.
