CLARITY Act tracker
The legislation has advanced materially, but it is not yet law.
H.R. 3633 passed the House 294-134 on 17 July 2025. The Senate Banking Committee ordered a substitute reported favorably on 14 May 2026, and the measure was placed on the Senate Legislative Calendar on 1 June 2026. No nationwide CLARITY licence is currently available.
What could change
A clearer market structure would reshape decisions across the operating model.
The proposal matters well before a filing stage because classification choices affect products, entities, controls and documentation.
Trading and intermediary routes
Exchanges, brokers, dealers and custody providers may need to assess new federal registration paths alongside existing obligations.
Issuance and secondary trading
Token design, issuer disclosures, decentralization facts and secondary-market treatment would require a consistent evidence record.
Controls remain central
Customer-asset protection, books and records, monitoring and Bank Secrecy Act duties remain core even as market-structure rules evolve.
Prepare before enactment
Build the facts now; adapt the legal wrapper as the text changes.
Early work can be version-controlled against the bill and reused across current federal, state and FinCEN analysis.
Map business and token activities
Document each product, service, token role and transaction rather than relying on broad labels.
Define the federal and state perimeter
Separate possible SEC, CFTC and FinCEN issues from state money-transmission and other local requirements.
Trace entities, customers and asset flows
Show which entity contracts with each customer and where custody, execution and settlement occur.
Prepare governance and control files
Organize custody, AML, conflicts, disclosures, books and records, and management accountability.
Maintain a version-aware roadmap
Track bill changes and convert final rules into sequenced legal, policy, technology and filing workstreams.
