Momentum is building in Washington around a long-anticipated overhaul of U.S. crypto regulation as the Senate prepares for a formal review of the landmark legislation.
David Sacks, the White House adviser overseeing artificial intelligence and digital asset policy, confirmed that Senate committees will begin marking up the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act in January 2026. He shared the update on the social media platform X following discussions with key Senate leaders.
According to Sacks, Senate Banking Committee Chair Tim Scott and Senate Agriculture Committee Chair John Boozman agreed on the timeline during a joint call. He added that the confirmation moves lawmakers closer to passing a comprehensive crypto framework that has received public backing from President Donald Trump.
