The CLARITY Act (H.R. 3633), designed to clarify US digital asset market rules across SEC, CFTC, and other regulators, faces a Senate delay past the August recess due to unresolved ethics provisions restricting public officials' crypto holdings. The bill remains alive but timeline has slipped, pushing regulatory clarity into September at earliest.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
Your regulatory roadmap just extended by months: the bill that would split crypto oversight between the SEC and CFTC is stalled on ethics rules, not substance, which means the fight is political not technical—you're still building on fragmented rules through September, but the path to unified market structure is now clearer politically than it was.
