Senate Set to Vote on Landmark Crypto Bill Amid Trump Family Profits

The US Senate will vote on the CLARITY Act today, Tuesday, September 15, 2026. The bill aims to support the cryptocurrency industry, which has received significant backing from President Trump.

One of the main objections to the act was additional ethics language to prevent those in power from benefiting from the crypto market. This specifically targeted President Trump's own crypto empire, with reports suggesting he and his family have made over $1 billion in profits since 2025.

However, after addressing these concerns, the bill has been revised to include protections for developers, miners, and validators who don't control customer funds.
