US Senate Delays CLARITY Act Vote Amid Crypto Regulation Disputes
The U.S. Senate has delayed a vote on the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act (CLARITY Act), which aims to provide comprehensive digital asset regulation in 2026.
According to Senate leadership, the bill will not receive a procedural vote before lawmakers leave for their August recess.
The delay is seen as a setback for the crypto industry's push for regulation, but it may also give lawmakers more time to resolve major disagreements and improve the bill's chances of passage.
Lawmakers and industry sources have indicated that several unresolved disputes could have prevented the legislation from securing enough support to advance.
