United States President Donald Trump is pushing lawmakers to pass the Clarity Act quickly. Following a White House meeting with crypto industry leaders, Trump stated that the market structure bill is necessary to keep the country ahead of international competitors like China.

The Clarity Act sets clear rules to separate digital assets into securities, commodities, and stablecoins. Lawmakers originally hoped for an August vote, but the schedule now points to September. The legislation stalled earlier this year due to debates over crypto yield products and ethics rules for government officials.

During the White House gathering, Trump also teased the possibility of the government buying more bitcoin. When asked about accumulating large amounts of the asset, he noted that it takes pressure off the dollar and that he would listen to official recommendations.

Traders should watch the Senate schedule closely as September approaches. Passing the Clarity Act would mark a major milestone for regulation in the United States and could spark fresh market momentum.
