Good morning everyone Critical January for Crypto Regulation⏳⏳⏳ ✨A long-awaited milestone is approaching for the cryptocurrency sector in Washington. The US Congress is preparing to advance a comprehensive law (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, or CLARITY Act for short) to regulate the market structure of digital assets in January 2026. According to a statement made by White House Crypto and AI Advisor David Sacks in December 2025, the markup process in Senate committees will begin in January. Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott and the leaders of the Agriculture Committee are preparing for this. The bill has already passed the House of Representatives with strong bipartisan support. 👉What Will the Law Bring? It will clarify the power-sharing between the SEC and the CFTC. It will introduce rules that balance consumer protection, innovation, and financial stability for digital assets. With the goal of making the US the "crypto capital," it will prevent offshore flight by providing clarity to the sector. However, there are obstacles: time is running out due to the risk of a government funding crisis at the end of January and the 2026 midterm elections. Experts estimate the chances of the law passing in 2026 at 50-60%. It will be an exciting month for the crypto community! This regulation could accelerate institutional adoption by maturing the sector. 🚀
