Retail Traders Divided On Clarity Act Prospects
Retail traders are cautiously optimistic about the prospects of the CLARITY Act passing this year. A Stocktwits poll found that nearly half of respondents, 49%, believe the legislation will pass both chambers of Congress in 2026.
However, around one-third of retail traders surveyed said they do not expect meaningful crypto legislation to become law in 2026.
The Senate Banking Committee is expected to hold its CLARITY Act markup hearing on Thursday. Banking industry groups are lobbying lawmakers to tighten stablecoin yield provisions in the latest draft of the bill.
