- Legislative Progress: John D’Agostino from Coinbase highlighted significant advancements in the CLARITY Act during a CNBC interview, indicating that comprehensive legislation for digital asset regulation is on the horizon, which is expected to enhance institutional investor participation.

- Increased Institutional Confidence: A survey revealed that 67% of institutional investors plan to increase their crypto investments once comprehensive legislation is enacted, suggesting that regulatory clarity is seen as foundational for market participation, potentially boosting institutional investment by 40-60% over the next three years.
- Consumer Protection Measures: The CLARITY Act will incorporate consumer protection provisions aimed at addressing common issues in crypto markets, such as disclosure requirements and custody safeguards, thereby enhancing market transparency and security.
