The post Bessent Urges Immediate Approval of Crypto Bill appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
US Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is pressing Congress to quickly pass the bipartisan CLARITY Act, a major crypto market structure bill that would create clear federal rules for digital assets. He warned that regulatory uncertainty is pushing innovation overseas and could weaken the United States’ leadership in the fast-growing crypto space, stressing that lawmakers must act now while there is still time. The bill has stalled in the Senate amid disagreements between banks, exchanges, and crypto firms, but supporters say clear rules could calm markets and support broader adoption.
