Trump Agrees to Ethics Rules in Major Step for Clarity Act
President Donald Trump has reportedly agreed to ethics provisions included in the Clarity Act, potentially removing one of the biggest obstacles facing the crypto market structure bill.
The provisions would prevent the president, vice president, members of Congress and other senior federal officials from personally profiting from certain digital assets while in office.
Trump Support Could Push Clarity Act Forward
The agreement reportedly came after discussions between the White House and lawmakers. Updated language on the ethics provisions is expected to be shared with Senate Democrats as negotiations continue.
The Clarity Act aims to establish a clearer regulatory framework for the crypto industry and define the responsibilities of the SEC and CFTC. Supporters argue that the bill could bring much-needed clarity to the market and reduce regulatory uncertainty for crypto companies.
The Senate is working under a tight timeline, with lawmakers aiming to advance the legislation before the August recess.
Trump’s reported agreement on the ethics provisions could help clear a major hurdle and give the Clarity Act fresh momentum as lawmakers continue negotiations.
