THIS WEEK COULD RESHAPE THE FUTURE OF CRYPTO.

Two major structural catalysts are approaching. • Monday: The Senate returns, and the CLARITY Act enters its final push before the August recess. If passed, it would split crypto oversight between the CFTC and SEC, protect DeFi developers, and permanently ban a federal CBDC. • Wednesday: DTCC targets its first limited production tokenization trades. The firm behind $114T+ in cleared assets is bringing stocks, ETFs, and Treasuries on-chain with backing from BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and Citi. Regulatory clarity. Institutional tokenization. Both converging in the same week. Source: Crypto Rover
