Bitget CEO Gracy Chen signals the exchange will pursue U.S. expansion regardless of the Clarity Act's passage.
Regulation & Gov ·
Bitget's leadership has signaled the exchange will move forward with U.S. market entry independent of whether the Clarity Act passes into law. The company previously paused expansion efforts in 2022, but according to the CEO, the exchange is now pursuing re-entry into the American market without conditioning the strategy on federal legislation.
The Clarity Act would establish clearer regulatory boundaries for digital assets, potentially reducing compliance uncertainty for exchanges seeking to operate domestically. Bitget's willingness to expand regardless of the bill's fate suggests confidence in its ability to navigate the existing regulatory landscape or that the exchange views regulatory progress as secondary to timing and market opportunity.
It remains unclear what specific compliance pathways Bitget intends to pursue, whether the company has begun formal applications with regulators, or what timeline it has set for operational launch in the United States.
