- Clarity Act expands cryptocurrency oversight in the US.
- Clear rules strengthen the fight against crypto-related crimes.
- Cryptocurrency law prioritizes American national security.
The Blockchain Association sent a letter to the United States Senate reinforcing its support for the Clarity Act, a bill that seeks to establish clearer rules for the cryptocurrency market in the country.
The document was addressed to Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Democratic Leader Charles Schumer, gathering signatures from 160 former professionals connected to national security and public safety.
"The Clarity Act expands the capabilities of law enforcement and financial crime prevention across the entire digital asset ecosystem," the letter stated.
The bill already passed through the Senate Banking Committee last month and is now awaiting a vote in the plenary. At the same time, lawmakers are discussing the inclusion of ethical rules that would limit the activities of elected officials in cryptocurrency-related businesses.
This debate gained momentum in light of the current US president Donald Trump's commercial interests related to the sector.
According to the association, creating a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies is a priority for national security and for the work of authorities. In a recent publication, the group highlighted that clear rules allow for greater oversight within the United States.
"Clear rules subject the activity to US oversight, strengthen consumer protection, and help investigators catch violators," the association stated.

The proposal includes measures aimed at combating illicit financing, such as expanding the Banking Secrecy Law and requirements related to sanctions. Another central point is the sharing of information led by the Treasury between law enforcement agencies and companies in the sector.
Furthermore, the text provides for the creation of a permanent inter-institutional group focused on financial crimes involving cryptocurrencies.
“These are not deregulation measures,” the letter added. “They are enhanced enforcement tools designed to improve visibility, coordination, compliance, and accountability in digital asset markets.”
As the project progresses, the Blockchain Association is organizing meetings in Washington with various Senate offices. A virtual assembly is also planned with the participation of Senator Cynthia Lummis, House Majority Leader Tom Emmer, and Patrick Witt, who is connected to the White House digital asset council.
