#CLARITYBillDelayed Another major setback for U.S. crypto regulation: the CLARITY Act (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act) — the long-awaited bill meant to finally bring clear rules for crypto markets, stablecoins, DeFi, and the SEC vs. CFTC oversight split — has been delayed again in the Senate.
For the crypto industry, this is frustrating but highly consequential, not only for DeFi and stablecoins but also for Bitcoin (BTC), which is closely tied to U.S. market sentiment, liquidity, and regulatory clarity.
