The CFTC will discuss the future of crypto regulation at its inaugural Innovation Advisory Committee meeting on August 20, as the CLARITY Act remains stalled in the Senate. The meeting will focus on building a clearer federal crypto framework while balancing innovation, market integrity, and customer protection. The SEC and CFTC are also exploring regulatory measures amid uncertainty surrounding the legislation. $XRP could benefit from greater regulatory clarity, particularly as institutional adoption and confidence in established digital assets remain closely tied to U.S. policy developments. The meeting will also cover AI and prediction markets, including the ongoing regulatory disputes involving Polymarket and Kalshi. #Macro Insights#
