Major Cryptocurrency Players Release Joint Statement – Call for Cryptocurrency Action for Both US Parties

Eight leading crypto policy organizations based in Washington, DC, along with Uniswap and Jump, have called on the U.S. Congress to incorporate the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act (BRCA) into the CLARITY Act, a digital asset market structure bill, crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett reported. This joint statement, which includes important organizations such as DeFi Education Fund, Coin Center, Solana Foundation’s policy arm Solana Institute, Digital Chamber, Blockchain Association, Crypto Council for Innovation, Bitcoin Policy Institute and Paradigm, is considered a critical step in the industry. The BRCA aims not to regulate software developers and infrastructure providers that do not store customer assets in the same way traditional financial institutions do, the statement said. The regulation was first introduced by GOP Majority Representative Tom Emmer and later became a bipartisan proposal with the support of Democratic Representative Ritchie Torres.
