according to crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, the draft of the "Clarity Act" contains a clause worth noting, which classifies certain tokens as non-ancillary assets based on whether they have been included in an ETF by January 1, 2026.

The clause states: If a token is a core asset of an ETF as of January 1, 2026, and the ETF is listed on a national securities exchange and registered under Section 6 of the Securities Exchange Act, then the token will be exempt from other token information disclosure obligations.

In other words, under this act, XRP, SOL, LTC, HBAR, DOGE, and LINK will be treated equally with BTC and ETH from the date the act takes effect.
