🚨 CLARITY Act Vote Delayed Until September

The much-awaited Senate floor vote on the U.S. CLARITY Act has been pushed to September after lawmakers failed to reach an agreement during the August window.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune indicated that a procedural move such as a cloture filing could still happen before the Senate leaves Washington, potentially setting the stage for a floor vote.

But the bigger question is: why the delay?

Democratic lawmakers, including Sen. Elizabeth Warren, have raised concerns over the current version of the bill, particularly around issues such as stablecoin yield, illicit finance, developer protections and ethics provisions.

At the same time, some Republicans have also withheld support.

That means the bill may need bipartisan backing to move forward.

📅 The Senate is scheduled to return on September 14, leaving September — and potentially November — as important windows for the legislation.

For crypto, this delay means one thing:

More uncertainty.

Market participants, exchanges and institutions are still waiting for clearer rules around market structure, custody and regulatory oversight in the U.S.

The CLARITY Act is still alive, but the path to becoming law in 2026 has become significantly more difficult.

The next major date to watch:

September 14 🇺🇸
