CLARITY Act Stalls, BitGo CEO Warns US Crypto Market Faces Business Concentration Risk

Odaily reports that Mike Belshe posted on X stating that the failure of the CLARITY Act to advance leaves the US crypto market continuing to face systemic risks, particularly the risk of a single institution simultaneously controlling trading platforms, brokerage, and asset custody businesses.

He stated that the collapse of a broker may cause localized losses; however, if the same institution simultaneously operates a trading platform and provides asset custody services, its collapse could drag the entire market into crisis, and its risks warrant more vigilance than the Lehman Brothers incident.
