extraction_notes: "Extracted two claims on CLARITY Act regulatory mechanisms and their alignment with futarchy governance. Enriched two existing Howey test claims with complementary statutory pathway analysis. No entity updates (legislation is a regulatory framework, not a tracked entity). Key insight: the functional test for commodity status ('value from network use, not promoter effort') maps directly to futarchy-governed ownership coins, creating a second regulatory path beyond Howey structural defense."

## Content
@ -64,3 +69,15 @@ The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 (CLARITY Act) — comprehensive US
PRIMARY CONNECTION: [[Living Capital vehicles likely fail the Howey test for securities classification because the structural separation of capital raise from investment decision eliminates the efforts of others prong]]
WHY ARCHIVED: The "decentralization on-ramp" mechanism offers a statutory alternative to the Howey structural defense. Two legal paths are better than one. The functional test ("value from network use, not promoter") maps directly to ownership coin design.
EXTRACTION HINT: Focus on (1) decentralization on-ramp as complementary to Howey defense, (2) functional test alignment with ownership coins, (3) implication that regulatory uncertainty character is changing (from "no rules" to "which rules").
