Michael Saylor lashes out at the CLARITY Act, effectively describing it as a “restrictions law” rather than a “rights law”
Saylor said the digital asset industry would be better off with supportive regulations from the SEC, CFTC, and Treasury rather than accepting the restrictions contained in the latest version of the CLARITY Act
In his view, the problem is not the existence of regulation per se but rather that certain rules could make restrictions permanent once they become law
And this is where the interesting point for $BTC comes in
Saylor believes that the best approach moving forward is to drive the adoption of digital assets and expand their use, and then build supportive regulatory frameworks around them, rather than enacting restrictions that could limit innovation
However, there is a completely different view: CLARITY supporters argue that the legislation would have provided the market with legal clarity and defined the powers of the SEC and CFTC, rather than relying more heavily on current regulatory rules
The real debate, then, is not whether there should be regulation or not
but rather whether Bitcoin and crypto need a law that clearly sets the rules, or whether certain loopholes within the law might be more dangerous than the absence of the law itself
