Discussions between the U.S. Senate and the White House on the virtual-asset (cryptocurrency) market-structure bill 'CLARITY' appear to be progressing constructively.
On the 6th (local time), David Sacks, the White House advisor for cryptocurrency and artificial intelligence, said on X, "Today I had a productive discussion with Senator John Boozman, Chair of the Senate Agriculture Committee, and Senator Cory Booker about the virtual-asset market-structure bill."
He added, "I expect we will be able to review a bipartisan draft in the near future."
