Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary said Congress is likely to face renewed pressure to take up the Clarity crypto market structure legislation early next year. His comments come as lawmakers advance a bill aimed at establishing tax rules for digital assets. The developments suggest that efforts to define the regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies may proceed on two related tracks: taxation and broader market structure legislation. CoinDesk reported that O’Leary expects Congress to revisit Clarity as work on digital-asset tax treatment moves forward. The source did not provide further details on the bill’s timeline, provisions or potential impact on individual cryptocurrencies. Investors are watching the legislative process for signals about how U.S. policymakers may approach digital assets.
