🔥 CFTC and SEC Double Down on Crypto After Clarity Act Defeat.
In a post on X on Wednesday, CFTC Chair Mike Selig said his Commission is locked in and ready to ship its rules for the new frontier of finance. The outcome of yesterdays Senate vote was unfortunate, he said. Americans deserve regulatory clarity, legal certainty, and consumer protections in crypto asset markets. Selig said the agency would help President Donald Trump deliver a crypto regulatory framework using our existing statutory authorities. Mike Selig (@ChairmanSelig) September 16, 2026 SEC Chairman Paul Atkins echoed the commitment to agency action in a Wednesday post on X, thanking those who had worked on the bill across government and the industry. I have been unequivocal: with or without legislation, we will act decisively within the SECs statutory authority to deliver certainty for American investors and for the entrepreneurs shaping our technological future, Atkins wrote, adding stay tuned. My thanks go to everyone who put so much effort into the CLARITY Act across the Administration, Congress, investors, and innovators.
Our collective conviction that America must continue to lead is indispensable. I have been unequivocal: with or without legislation, we will act Paul Atkins (@SECPaulSAtkins) September 16, 2026 On Tuesday, the Senate voted 4950 on a procedural motion to advance the Clarity Act, falling short of the 60 votes required. The legislation would establish a federal framework for crypto markets and clarify the responsibilities of the CFTC and Securities and Exchange Commission.
