Gate News message, April 16 — JPMorgan released a research report stating that negotiations on the U.S. CLARITY Act have neared completion, with disputed issues narrowing from roughly a dozen to just 2-3 remaining questions. Discussions on stablecoin incentives have also entered a constructive phase.
The act aims to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets, delineate responsibilities between the SEC and CFTC, and define compliance pathways for stablecoins and DeFi platforms. The latest proposal is expected to gain support from both the crypto industry and traditional financial institutions.
However, the formal bill text has not yet been released and no vote has been scheduled. If Democrats regain control of the House in the 2026 midterm elections, crypto legislation could be deprioritized, introducing uncertainty into the bill’s timeline.
