“(ii) EXCEPTIONS.—The term ‘digital commodity broker’ does not include a person solely because the person—
“(I) solicits or accepts an order described in clause (i)(I)(aa)(AA) from a customer who is an eligible contract participant;
“(II) enters into 1 or more digital commodity transactions that are attributable or solely incidental to making, sending, receiving, or facilitating payments, whether involving a payment service provider or on a peer-to-peer basis; or
“(III) is a bank (as defined under section 3(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) engaging in certain banking activities with respect to a digital commodity in the same or a similar manner as a bank is excluded from the definition of a broker under such section, as determined by the Commission.
However I do feel that the DCB definition is overly broad and doesn't offer more clear explicit carve-outs for hobbyist, non-commercial use.
