CLARITY Act Rumor Fuels Expectations of Passage on September 15

The passage of the CLARITY Act has been a long-awaited event in the digital asset community. A rumor from XRP pundit JackTheRippler suggests that the bill has already secured the votes needed, and the public vote on September 15 is just a formality.

An AI-generated video showed a Senate chamber vote count with a tally of YEA 68, NAY 30, captioned as the passage of H.R. 3191, but this image was artificial, and H.R. 3191 is a separate bill from the CLARITY Act.

The CLARITY Act aims to establish a clear regulatory framework for digital assets in the U.S., defining which assets fall under SEC jurisdiction and which fall under the CFTC.
