The CLARITY Act, advancing through Congress, proposes shifting oversight of certain tokens from the SEC to the CFTC, potentially enabling companies to avoid traditional securities regulations. Senator Elizabeth Warren argues this could undermine the NYSE and expose retail investors to unchecked risks. Meanwhile, industry leaders like Ripple’s CEO advocate for regulatory clarity, while critics fear deregulation could invite fraud.

Senator Elizabeth Warren has reiterated her concerns about cryptocurrencies, claiming they threaten the U.S. financial system and could be exploited by Big Tech. She criticized the GENIUS and CLARITY Acts for lacking safeguards against illicit activities and allowing companies like Amazon and Meta to bypass SEC oversight. Former Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao countered, stating the NYSE doesn’t represent the entire economy and emphasizing the role of all businesses. Warren also linked Trump’s crypto ventures to corruption, calling them a ‘superhighway of crypto corruption.’ Despite her objections, the GENIUS Act is set for a House vote after GOP support, while the CLARITY Act may follow next week.
