This silver bullet might save crypto-clarity in the United States

• They do not believe the SEC has provided clarity on which tokens are considered securities and which are not
• The official pointing out the lack of clarity is extremely evident right now. There are a number of firms who are in sub-litigation or have been sued by the SEC, and the Chamber is involved in that process as a friend of the court
• As a result, it appears that there is still a long way to go. In the immediate term, the Ripple v. SEC cases may provide the greatest window into regulators’ classifications of securities and tokens

They do not believe the SEC has provided clarity on which tokens are considered securities and which are not. The chasm between the crypto-space and US regulators is as wide as it has ever been. While the crypto industry has long sought clarification from authorities, they have historically been sluggish to act. This has caused market watchers to emphasise the need for specialists to collaborate with policymakers once again. During a recent interview, Perianne Boring, Founder and President of the Chamber of Digital Commerce, discussed the topic. Despite Chair Gary Gensler recently saying that regulators’ attitude has been very clear, the executive claims that the SEC has failed to provide clarity.

The official pointing out the lack of clarity is extremely evident right now. There are a number of firms who are in sub-litigation or have been sued by the SEC, and the Chamber is involved in that process as a friend of the court. Meanwhile, the United States Congress has been compelled to intervene due to a lack of guidelines. Another option to fix this issue is for Congress to create a new law that would provide the crypto-industry with much-needed clarity. This may appear to be a straightforward procedure, but it is not. Several laws, such as the Token Taxonomy Act and the Securities Clarity Act, are now circulating. 

However, according to Boring, just 2% of all proposed legislation gets passed into law. As a result, it appears that there is still a long way to go. In the immediate term, the Ripple v. SEC cases may provide the greatest window into regulators’ classifications of securities and tokens. Boring, on the other hand, thinks Congressman Tom Emmer’s proposed Security Clarity Act is the silver bullet. It defines when a token is a security and when it is not, she explained. However, there are still obstacles to enacting this law because it is unclear how the bill will go through the parliamentary process.
