The rules that will govern crypto for a generation are being written right now, and the outcome is anything but settled. In the U.S., the CLARITY Act would redraw the line between the SEC and the CFTC, define the "digital commodity," and set the terms for how tokens are issued, traded, and policed, but its path through Congress is uncertain, and regulators are building a parallel framework through enforcement in the meantime. Abroad, the EU's MiCA is live, stablecoin regimes are hardening, and jurisdictions are competing to attract builders. What does a compliance and legal professional actually do amid this? In this moderated panel, Cat Bonar, a compliance leader who runs a blockchain-and-AI company through public-company-grade audits, interviews two practicing crypto attorneys on the ground truth: what the CLARITY Act really changes, how the SEC/CFTC split affects founders and token projects, where DeFi developer liability and stablecoin rules are heading, and how the U.S. picture compares to Europe, Asia, and the Gulf. Attendees leave with a clear-eyed read on the current legal landscape and a practical sense of how to build and stay compliant while the rules are still in motion. Less speculation, more signal, straight from the people who advise on this every day.
