Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says the CLARITY Act “doesn’t matter to crypto at this point.” His argument is simple. Crypto doesn’t need the bill to survive. What it needs is for the uncertainty to end. Once the rules are clear, companies can build, investors can plan, and the market can move forward. Whether the CLARITY Act passes or not may matter less than people think.

Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan says the CLARITY Act “doesn’t matter to crypto at this point.”

His argument is simple.

What it needs is for the uncertainty to end.

Once the rules are clear, companies can build, investors can plan, and the market can move forward.

Whether the CLARITY Act passes or not may matter less than people think.
