The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission has included three rulemakings covering crypto issuance and sales, broker-dealer regulation and crypto market structure in its official 2026 regulatory agenda. Detailed rule texts have not been released, and July is presented as a target timing for proposals rather than a fixed schedule. The plans were confirmed via rule lists posted on Reginfo.gov and are currently classified as being at the proposed-rule stage.

The U.S. crypto market structure bill known as the Clarity bill faces a four-week window before Congress breaks for its August recess. The Senate returns on July 13 and must decide whether to act by Aug. 7, its last scheduled working day before the break. Key issues include a provision on money transmitter rules for developers and a separate ethics clause tied to Trump family crypto businesses.
