Analyst suggests US CLARITY Act is watched closely by other countries and could signal for decentralized finance. Ethereum catalysts mentioned are the CLARITY Act, market risk, geopolitical tensions, and real-world asset tokenization.
The rest of the world is “really closely” watching the US CLARITY Act as the nation moves further away from the previous “hostile stance,” according to Sharplink’s chief.
Ethereum needs three catalysts to fall into place for its price to regain momentum and surge higher, according to SharpLink Gaming CEO Joseph Chalom.
“One is the CLARITY Act to pass in the US,” Chalom pointed out in an interview with Robert Baggs on Cointelegraph’s Chain Reaction showChalom said that while many view the legislation, which aims to give the US crypto industry greater clarity, as “a US phenomenon,” it is also being seen as a major signal for other jurisdictions around the world.
“I've been traveling a lot in Asia, and if you go to Korea, Hong Kong, Tokyo and Singapore, they are watching really closely because they realize the US went from having a hostile stance towards crypto and digital assets to um it could become the leader again in finance and you'll see a red dollarization of a lot of financial activity and these other capitals are very worried,” Chalom said. Chalom said the second catalyst is a return in market risk appetite, which he said will largely depend on geopolitical tensions easing and the cooling of the “AI thesis.
” “I think we'll need some of that to go away in order to see crypto rise again,” Chalom said. Sharplink Gaming is the second-largest publicly listed Ethereum treasury company, holding approximately 861,251 ETH, valued at $1.89 billion at the time of publication, Ether reached an all-time high of $4,823 in August 2025 as part of a broader market uptrend, but has since fallen 55% to $2,190 at the time of publication, Chalom said the final Ethereum catalyst he’s watching is the continued expansion of real-world asset tokenization.
"I think there's about 32 billion of tokenized RWA. And tokenization started in 2017. So it's been remarkably slow. Now you're seeing announcements of whole fund complexes being tokenized,” he said.money market fund on Ethereum, allowing stablecoin issuers to hold reserves backing their stablecoins in a regulated, cash-like vehicle while earning interest.it is teaming with Ondo Finance to bring tokenized versions of its exchange-traded funds onchain, allowing investors to access them through crypto wallets.
Chalom said, “You could see a world where there's not $30 billion in tokenized assets in a year from now. It could be $500 billion or a trillion. ”Nancy Lubale
