![[LIVE] The CLARITY Act and Fed Master Accounts: Defining Cryptos Place in the U.S. Financial System @TheFederalistSociety](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/Yn7-W_CNjv8/maxresdefault.jpg)

Join us for a timely discussion on two developments shaping the future of digital assets in the United States. We will examine the CLARITY Act and its effort to establish clear rules for whether digital assets fall under SEC or CFTC oversight, as well as the ongoing dispute over Federal Reserve master accounts for crypto-focused banking institutions.
Together, these issues highlight a central question: will digital asset firms gain both regulatory clarity and meaningful access to the nation’s financial infrastructure? The webinar will explore how the interaction between market-structure legislation and banking access could influence stablecoins, institutional adoption, and the broader integration of crypto into traditional finance.
Opening Remarks:
• Hon. Cynthia Lummis, U.S. Senate, Wyoming
Featuring:
• Paige Paridon, Executive Vice President and Co-Head of Regulatory Affairs, Bank Policy Institute
• Alex Pollock, Senior Fellow, Mises Institute
• Corey Then, Deputy General Counsel of Regulatory Strategy and Global Policy, Circle
• Prof. David Zaring, Elizabeth F. Putzel Professor and Professor of Legal Studies & Business Ethics, The Wharton School, The University of Pennsylvania
• (Moderator) J.C. Boggs, Partner, King & Spalding

![[LIVE] Litigation Finance: Access to Justice, Lawfare, and Foreign Influence](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/ao2jelmHHJQ/mqdefault.jpg "[LIVE] Litigation Finance: Access to Justice, Lawfare, and Foreign Influence
Third-party litigation funding has grown into a major part of modern civil litigation. Supporters argue it expands access to justice and helps under-resourced plaintiffs challenge powerful defendants. Critics argue it can distort litigation incentives, empower foreign or opaque funders, and undermine attorney-client control of litigation. As state legislatures and Congress consider restrictions and disclosure requirements, how should policymakers balance transparency, donor privacy, access to courts, national security, and attorney ethics? Is third-party litigation funding a threat to the integrity of the civil justice system that conservatives should rein in, or a market mechanism that conservatives should protect as a counterweight to institutional lawfare? Can the foreign-adversary money problem be severed from the broader regulatory question?
Join us for a discussion of these and other issues surrounding the financing of litigation.
