US Crypto Regulation Heats Up With CLARITY Act Deadline
The US Senate is under pressure to pass the CLARITY Act, a federal market-structure bill that would divide digital-asset oversight between the SEC and CFTC
The US crypto regulation landscape is heating up as the Senate faces a deadline to pass the CLARITY Act, a federal market-structure bill that would divide digital-asset oversight between the SEC and CFTC, as reported by CryptoSlate. President Trump has urged the Senate to find 60 votes for the bill within a 24-day timeframe, with SEC Chair Paul Atkins also weighing in to urge the US to lead AI and crypto with the CLARITY Act. The bill has secured endorsements from major US law enforcement groups, and its passage could have significant implications for the crypto industry, although DeFi hack losses remain below 2025 levels in 2026, suggesting that regulatory clarity may be having a positive impact. As the Senate considers the bill, President Trump has pressed them to act, warning that failure to pass the CLARITY Act could allow China to gain an advantage.
