Transcript

If you're waiting for the CLARITY Act to pass, here's the latest update. A lot of people expected movement this week, but the Senate has temporarily prioritized other legislation, including nominations and a Russia sanctions bill. That means that the CLARITY Act is unlikely to be taken up until next week at the earliest. Now, don't confuse delay with failure. The bill hasn't been voted down, it hasn't been scrapped, and support for it hasn't suddenly disappeared. One of the biggest sticking points around it is ethical rules around whether the Senate government officials should promote or sponsor crypto products. Lawmakers can reach an agreement quickly, the Senate could still begin considering the bill before the August recess. If not, attention is likely to shift to September. So if you see headlines like the CLARITY Act stalled, don't panic. Right now, it looks more like a scheduled delay than a change in support.
