Regulatory ethics remains a structural concern in crypto oversight, though immediate legislative timelines don't prioritize it. Some lawmakers signal they'll oppose the CLARITY Act unless specific safeguards around digital asset business practices are embedded. Here's the catch: ethics matters fall outside Senate Banking Committee's mandate, so the upcoming markup won't address these concerns directly. It's a jurisdictional gap that'll likely resurface as a compliance issue down the road. The broader question—how to align market integrity standards with legislative authority—gets pushed to future sessions.
