Is the SEC about to lose its job? The Clarity Act could rewrite the entire rules of the crypto world!
In the past few years, what has been the most classic phrase in the crypto circle?
“The project hasn't run away yet, and the SEC is already here.”
But now, the US regulatory framework might undergo a major overhaul.
After the Senate Banking Committee advanced the Clarity Act with a vote of 15:9, the market began to realize: this might not be an ordinary bill, but a “draft constitution for the crypto world.”
Why is everyone so excited?
Because in the past, US regulation of digital assets was basically “Schrödinger’s legality.”
Today, they say you're a security;
Tomorrow, they say you're a commodity;
The day after, you might directly receive a lawyer’s letter.
Project teams are like playing Minesweeper every day—step wrong, and it could blow up immediately.
The main goal of the Clarity Act is to clarify: who regulates whom.
Simply put, it aims to redraw the lines of authority between the SEC and CFTC.
This may seem highly technical, but behind it is actually a “regulatory turf war.”
Over the years, the SEC’s power has grown increasingly large, and many in the crypto industry have been tortured into PTSD by “law enforcement-style regulation.”
Meanwhile, the CFTC is relatively moderate, so many industry players prefer digital assets to be regulated more like “commodities.”
The question is:
Is the SEC willing to easily relinquish this power?
That’s also why I believe that although the bill is progressing smoothly, it still won’t be easy to pass officially.
Because the further the bill goes, the more intense the interests groups’ battles will become.
Especially during the full Senate voting stage, there could be numerous add-ons, amendments, and political deals.
What is the US Congress best at?
Not legislation, but “arguing and dragging on.”
But in the long run, I still believe there’s a high probability that the Clarity Act will ultimately pass.
Because the US has already realized a reality:
Digital assets will not disappear.
If they continue to suppress innovation through vague regulation, many projects and funds will directly move overseas.
And now, the world is competing for the “on-chain financial era” entry point.
The US may not like crypto, but it cannot accept “another system emerging next to dollar financial hegemony.”
So from a strategic perspective, the US will eventually establish rules.
Will it be completed by 2026?
I tend to think:
Yes, but it might be “a compromised version after multiple revisions.”
After all, Washington has a tradition—anything that looks simple will definitely be complicated. #Polymarket每日热点
