The Big Story
CLARITY Setback Puts US Crypto Rules Under Regulators
The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act has failed its key Senate procedural vote, dealing a significant blow to the crypto industry's push for a comprehensive statutory framework and throwing the future of US digital asset regulation back into the hands of federal agencies.
The bill failed to survive a Senate cloture vote on Tuesday, falling well short of the 60 votes needed to advance.
The outcome leaves the SEC and CFTC with continued authority to set crypto policy through enforcement actions and rulemaking, rather than through a clear legislative mandate. Despite the setback, CZ argued that technological progress in crypto cannot be legislated away, even if individual bills fail.
