Metrika’s Letter to the U.S. Senate Banking Committee on the CLARITY Act
Metrika has submitted a letter to the U.S. Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs in support of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025.
Our view is simple: as digital assets move further into institutional finance, regulatory clarity is only one part of the equation.
The other is operational resilience.
Tokenized securities, stablecoins, and blockchain-based financial infrastructure cannot be supervised with point-in-time controls alone. These systems run 24/7, depend on distributed infrastructure, and introduce new forms of risk across validators, smart contracts, settlement systems, governance mechanisms, cyber dependencies, and transaction activity.
That means modern risk management must be continuous, real-time, and infrastructure-aware.
We believe blockchain networks should increasingly be treated as critical financial infrastructure within institutional operational risk frameworks. As banks, asset managers, payment firms, and market infrastructure providers adopt tokenized rails, the ability to monitor network-level, protocol-level, and asset-level risks will become essential to market integrity, investor protection, and safe adoption.
The CLARITY Act is an important step toward a federal framework that supports responsible innovation while recognizing the operational realities of blockchain-based markets.
We appreciate the Committee’s work and welcome continued engagement as the legislation moves forward.
