US Crypto Regulation Advances Despite CLARITY Act Senate Setback
Image: AMBCryptoThe CLARITY Act failed a procedural Senate vote on September 15, 2026, with prediction market odds of its 2026 passage ranging from 6% to 14% across reports. U.S. regulators continue advancing crypto rules via existing agency authority. The SEC has outlined a pathway for tokenized stock trading on blockchain platforms, while the CFTC has offered relief to some software developers. Regulators are also considering frameworks for crypto exchanges, leveraged trading, stablecoins, and blockchain recordkeeping.
Key points
- U.S. regulators are advancing crypto rules via existing agency authority despite the bill's stall.
- The SEC and CFTC are developing frameworks for crypto exchanges, tokenized assets, and market infrastructure.
Why it matters
Interim agency rules offer limited crypto regulatory guidance, but lack the permanent, cross-platform structure a passed CLARITY Act would establish.
