Clarity bill faces July turning point as U.S. crypto regulation hangs in balance

U.S. Senate Republican leaders are pushing to pass the Clarity bill, a crypto market structure measure, in July. With the Senate in recess until mid-July and an August break looming, lawmakers have about four weeks to act. The bill cleared two committees on party-line votes but faces hurdles on the Senate floor, including the need for some Democratic support. Questions over conflict-of-interest safeguards and President Donald Trump’s signing position add uncertainty.

U.S. CLARITY bill keeps clashing over crypto ethics, momentum cools rapidly

The U.S. Senate’s CLARITY crypto market structure bill is losing momentum amid a partisan fight over how to enforce ethics provisions. A key dispute is whether state attorneys general should be able to sue the Justice Department if the federal government fails to enforce crypto ethics rules. Some Republicans and the White House have stepped back from earlier enforcement proposals, while Democratic senators who backed the bill in committee are not promising support on the Senate floor.

Pressure builds for Clarity Act Senate vote, but prediction markets see August deadline unlikely

The cryptocurrency industry has stepped up public pressure on the U.S. Senate to move the Clarity Act to a floor vote. More than 200 companies and groups urged Senate leaders to act without delay, arguing that a lack of federal rules pushes activity overseas. Opponents have also mobilised, citing weaknesses in anti-money laundering provisions, ethics rules and stablecoin-related gaps. Prediction markets and some institutional forecasts have lowered estimates for passage before August.
