CLARITY Act: Tim Scott teases major crypto update coming next week

US Senator Tim Scott has confirmed the long-awaited news: the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act will move to the crucial "markup" stage next week. This legislative initiative aims to clear regulatory uncertainty in the United States and could be the fundamental catalyst for triggering a new institutional Bull run.

End of the Regulatory Wild West: A Turning Point for the Crypto Market

For several years, the American crypto market has been operating in persistent legal uncertainty, caught between the enforcement actions of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the absence of a clear framework. Senator Tim Scott’s announcement, however, marks a key milestone. Moving into markup means the bill is entering an active phase of debate and amendments, prior to a vote.

The project’s objective is explicit: to define a clear market structure for digital assets. By ending the logic of “regulation by enforcement,” the bill aims to restore a climate of confidence, long undermined by regulatory uncertainty and an artificially bearish market sentiment.

If the CLARITY Act is adopted, it would bring major legal certainty, particularly by clearly distinguishing securities from commodities. This is an essential clarification to allow Smart Money to gain broader exposure to the sector without excessive legal risk.

Institutions, Price Action and the Bitcoin Equation

Historically, every step toward regulatory clarity in the United States has been interpreted as a bullish signal by the market. Concrete progress on this bill could trigger institutional accumulation, with many players waiting for a clear framework before entering.

Defined regulation also paves the way for new financial products and deeper integration of cryptocurrencies into traditional finance. As regulatory FUD dissipates, barriers to entry fall, strengthening buying momentum on major assets.

As Bitcoin trades near key technical levels, attention is now focused on Washington. Next week could be decisive: Credible political progress could trigger a breakout, while a stalemate would reignite volatility and a possible short-term retracement.
