Trump Urges Passage of Clarity Act to Clarify U.S. Cryptocurrency Regulations
U.S. President Donald Trump has urged Congress to pass the Clarity Act, legislation aimed at clarifying cryptocurrency regulations by defining digital assets as securities or commodities and assigning oversight to the SEC or CFTC. The bill, supported by industry leaders but stalled in the Senate, seeks to reduce regulatory uncertainty and promote investment. Trump, who has significant crypto business interests, hosted a White House event with crypto executives and regulators to advocate for the bill and discussed potential government Bitcoin purchases as part of a broader crypto-friendly agenda.
