◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
If you're building crypto infrastructure or trading platforms, Schwab's $13 trillion weight behind CLARITY just moved the needle on whether you get a legal rails framework this year or face another cycle of state-by-state muddle. The vote happens before August recess or you're waiting until autumn - and that deadline is now live political territory between Senate and White House.
