SEC and CFTC Crypto Rules 'Fall Short' of Clarity, Says Rep. French Hill

The House Financial Services chairman credited the SEC and CFTC for stepping in after the Clarity Act's collapse but said only "permanent law change" can secure U.S. leadership.

  • Rep. French Hill argues that current SEC and CFTC crypto regulations, while a step, are insufficient and lack the durability of legislative law.
  • He emphasizes the need for a permanent legislative solution, like the stalled Clarity Act, to ensure U.S. leadership in digital assets and blockchain technology.
  • Hill believes that regulatory actions, such as exemptions and guidance, are fragile and can be overturned, unlike statutory law.
