Saylor and Strategy Inc. Officially Endorse the CLARITY Act Bill Concerning Cryptocurrencies in the US
On July 31, Strategy Inc. (MSTR), the world's largest corporate holder of Bitcoin, announced its endorsement of the bipartisan CLARITY Act (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act). The company framed the bill as promoting market growth, institutional investor participation, consumer protection, and individuals' rights to own and control digital assets.
Executive Chairman Michael Saylor added his influential voice, stating that while Bitcoin will succeed with or without regulation, America needs clarity for digital assets. The support comes as the Senate considers market structure legislation that would define regulatory roles for the SEC and CFTC and establish registration procedures for exchanges and custodians.
The endorsement coincides with Strategy's Q2 report, which showed a significant net loss largely due to Bitcoin's volatility, underscoring the direct relevance of digital asset regulation to its shareholders and capital-raising strategy. Saylor's broader views link Bitcoin's long-term value to regulatory certainty and stable protocol rules.
Political pressure is mounting as supporters have initiated nearly 1 million messages urging lawmakers to advance digital asset bills. However, legislative prospects remain uncertain, with one research firm lowering its passage probability estimate to 30%, even as crypto owners indicate the issue could influence their votes in the upcoming midterm elections.
