A bipartisan coalition of 18 U.S. state attorneys general oppose the Clarity Act, a crypto market structure bill, arguing it would weaken states' ability to combat fraud and protect investors. The coalition highlights states' key role in more than 330 crypto-related anti-fraud enforcement actions since 2017.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Crypto & Web3, and 41 sources have reported it between 21 Jul 2026 and 15 Sep 2026.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You must factor in that US state power to regulate crypto could be restricted soon, which means federal rules might override local fraud enforcement. This opens a window to build compliance strategies that bridge state-federal regulatory gaps.
