Over 200 cryptocurrency institutions, including Coinbase and Ripple, jointly urge the U.S. Senate to advance the vote on the CLARITY Act
According to The Block, a joint letter initiated by Stand With Crypto, the Blockchain Association, the Crypto Council for Innovation, and The Digital Chamber has been submitted to U.S. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, urging a prompt full Senate vote on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (referred to as the CLARITY Act). More than 200 crypto companies, industry associations, and community organizations, including Coinbase, Ripple, Kraken, a16z, Circle, and Binance.US, participated in signing.
The joint letter points out that the CLARITY Act will establish a comprehensive federal regulatory framework for the digital asset market, clarify the division of responsibilities among regulatory agencies, provide feasible registration pathways, and protect software developers' innovation while encouraging more digital asset businesses to return to the U.S. market. The signatories stated that the act would help keep innovation, jobs, investment, and market activities in the U.S., further solidifying the country's leading position in global digital asset innovation.
It is understood that the CLARITY Act received bipartisan support from the Senate Banking Committee last month and passed the committee's review. Senator Cynthia Lummis subsequently stated that the next step for the act will be to enter the full Senate review stage.
Additionally, 160 former national security and law enforcement officials had previously signed in support of the act, and U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and White House crypto advisor Patrick Witt have also publicly called for advancing the legislative process. However, the issue of the Trump family's interests in relation to the crypto industry is still seen as one of the main obstacles facing the advancement of the act.
