CLARITY Act Faces Senate Vote
Senate Majority Leader John Thune has confirmed that a floor vote on the CLARITY Act (H.R. 3633), the bill setting new digital asset market rules, will happen before the August recess. The bill would keep the SEC in charge of investment contracts and tokenized securities while handing the CFTC full oversight of spot markets for digital commodities — a segment worth roughly $680 billion. Passage still requires 60 votes, and lawmakers remain split over stablecoin yield rules and ethics restrictions for officials. Prediction markets currently put the odds of the bill becoming law in 2026 at around 30–33%. The outcome could reshape regulatory clarity across the entire crypto market.
