The US Senate Banking Committee passed the CLARITY Act, establishing a standard for classifying tokens as securities or commodities. Tokens are initially classified as securities but can be reclassified as digital commodities if they meet decentralization criteria. This shift transfers regulatory oversight from the SEC to the CFTC, reducing compliance costs for projects. The act aims to clarify regulations for digital assets, impacting existing and new projects in the crypto industry.
