Mark your calendar: Chairman @JohnBoozman announces timeline for crypto market structure legislation:
Jan 21, by COB – Legislative text released
Jan 27, 3 PM – Committee markup
When it comes to crypto, one thing is for sure: we need to get the framework legislation right the first time.
We made HUGE steps with the Genius Act. Let’s keep that momentum going with the Clarity Act.
The digital asset industry can’t wait any longer for regulatory clarity. This bipartisan Clarity Act provides the framework America needs to lead in financial innovation while protecting consumers. Both parties contributed to every section. Let’s get this done!
There is crypto as a computer: blockchain with productive use cases, such as the tokenization of real-world assets.
And then there is crypto as a casino.
The so-called NYC Token—bizarrely marketed as a tool to combat antisemitism, despite having nothing to do with it—represents orst.
Today at 10 AM - Subcommittee RM @RepStephenLynch leads Democrats as the Subcommittee on Digital Assets, Financial Technology, and Artificial Intelligence holds a hearing entitled “Delivering for American Consumers: A Review of FinTech Innovations and Regulations.”

Developers who can't touch, move, or control your crypto shouldn't be regulated like they can. That's not controversial, it’s just common sense. Proud to work with @RonWyden to bring sanity to digital asset regulation while keeping every AML protection in place.
After months of hard work, we have bipartisan text ready for Thursday’s markup. I urge my Democrat colleagues: don’t retreat from our progress. The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act will provide the clarity needed to keep innovation in the U.S. & protect consumers. Let’s do this!
Protecting the rights of software developers is not a partisan issue. Stalwart champions of crypto like @SenLummis and long time champions of Internet freedom and strong cryptography like @RonWyden agree. We already passed it in the House. Let's make this law!
For years, blockchain developers have faced an impossible choice: stop building or risk prosecution as "money transmitters" even when they never control $$$. This regulatory confusion has driven American innovation overseas. The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act fixes that
Chairman @JohnBoozman reports progress in bipartisan crypto market structure talks. Markup now set for the last week of January to ensure broad support.

We strongly support this bipartisan push to ensure developers who build blockchain infrastructure are not misclassified as financial intermediaries.
Clear rules are essential for innovation to thrive in the U.S. And it's critical that the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) remains in market structure legislation.
Thank you @SenLummis and @RonWyden for your leadership!
Writing code is not the same as controlling money and developers who build blockchain infrastructure without touching user funds shouldn't be treated like banks. @RonWyden and I are ensuring that won’t happen.
I am on the Senate floor to commend the House passage of an extension of the Affordable Care Act’s enhanced premium tax credits and to call out the dangers of an unregulated cryptocurrency industry. x.com/i/broadcasts/1…
The future of money will determine the future. Either we stop CBDC & digital ID while protecting self-custody and the fundamental right to transact or western civilization is effectively lost.
Things that don’t help people pay their bills: Trump renaming the Kennedy Center, invading Venezuela, building a ballroom, or hawking crypto.
2025 was one of the weakest years for job growth in years.
Steve Witkoff is supposed to be advancing American interests abroad.
Instead he’s making money on a sketchy crypto scheme.
@RepGregoryMeeks, @RepRobertGarcia, and I are demanding an investigation.

I have long said our economy needs clarity and fairness, not confusion and hidden costs. That’s why I teamed up with Rep. Miller to create the only bipartisan framework for crypto tax rules, the Digital Asset Parity Act. This brings commonsense tax clarity to digital assets, closes loopholes that invite abuse, and protects everyday people from unnecessary burdens in a rapidly evolving market. This is not just for Wall Street, it is about fair rules for consumers, innovators, and Main Street.

The Responsible Financial Innovation Act of 2026:
Draws the line between digital asset securities and commodities
Protects Americans with clear safeguards and regulations
Secures the U.S. as the digital asset capital of the world
Decentralized Finance (DeFi) scares big financial institutions and the surveillance state. With DeFi you could cut out middlemen, lower costs, protect privacy... In short, DeFi helps defend freedom so they want to kill it.
Keep calm. Defend freedom. Protect self-custody.
When @POTUS took office, he did so with a promise to establish the United States as the crypto capital of the world. After months of good-faith, bipartisan negotiations, it’s time to take the next step in making that promise a reality.
The â‚żulldog Senator.
Thank you, @JimJustice_WV, for standing up for market neutrality and supporting the digital asset industry in discussions with MSCI.
It's been a long five years...
Unhosted wallets

The Fed hating crypto
Market volatility
Veto of SAB121
We've come so far, and we are close to a bipartisan legislation that will stand the test of time.
Why is the U.S. gov still liquidating bitcoin when @POTUS explicitly directed these assets be preserved for our Strategic Bitcoin Reserve? We can’t afford to squander these strategic assets while other nations are accumulating bitcoin. I’m deeply concerned about this report.
Crypto leadership is the next frontier of American innovation.
2026 must be the year that we sign the CLARITY Act into law & secure America’s spot as the world’s leader in crypto!
People want their money in a safe place.
A free market system for digital assets with federal guardrails will create an environment where crypto can be utilized freely while also protecting consumers from bad actors.
The "Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025," or "CLARITY Act of 2025," establishes a regulatory framework for digital commodities, granting the CFTC exclusive jurisdiction over spot market transactions and related entities like exchanges, brokers, and dealers. It aims to differentiate digital commodities from securities, introduce a "mature blockchain system" concept for regulatory exemptions, and protect individual self-custody rights.
The "Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act" (H.R. 3533) provides a safe harbor for non-controlling blockchain developers and service providers, exempting them from being classified as money transmitters or financial institutions, and thus from associated licensing and registration requirements, unless they have control over users' digital assets. This aims to prevent such entities from incurring liability for unlicensed or unregistered conduct.
The GENIUS Act of 2025 proposes a regulatory framework for payment stablecoins. It defines permitted issuers (insured depository institutions, their subsidiaries, and approved nonbank entities) and mandates 1:1 reserve backing with specific high-quality assets. The bill outlines federal and state regulatory oversight options, sets requirements for customer asset segregation, and grants stablecoin holders priority in insolvency proceedings. It also clarifies that regulated payment stablecoins are not considered securities or commodities under various acts. The bill designates issuers as financial institutions under the Bank Secrecy Act, requiring compliance with AML, KYC, and sanctions regulations to prevent illicit finance and safeguard national security. It also reinforces U.S. leadership in digital finance by supporting innovation and ensuring the dollar remains competitive in a rapidly evolving global financial landscape.
