The U.S. Senate failed to invoke cloture to proceed with the CLARITY Act, a bill to clarify crypto market structure, stalling formal debate. The failure highlights ongoing bipartisan disputes over government ethics rules and stablecoin regulations, creating uncertainty for crypto adoption and regulatory clarity.
