It ensures these entities are not classified as money transmitters or subject to similar registration requirements under federal or state laws. This includes activities like creating software, providing maintenance, offering hardware or software for digital asset custody, and infrastructure support. The act also defines terms such as "digital asset" and "distributed ledger" to ensure consistent interpretation.
