Y Combinator urges swift Senate passage of CLARITY bill

U.S. startup accelerator Y Combinator has publicly urged the Senate to pass the CLARITY bill, a digital asset market structure proposal. It said all YC companies would eventually use cryptocurrency technology, including stablecoins, and stressed the need for a regulatory framework. The company described blockchain as an “Internet of Assets” and cited use cases such as cross-border payroll and faster marketplace payouts. The bill would clarify oversight by asset type and includes customer protections.

Some Republicans and the White House have stepped back from earlier enforcement proposals, while Democratic senators who backed the bill in committee are not promising support on the Senate floor.
