What happened
Senate stalled movement on the Clarity Act, shelving the proposed digital asset regulation to prioritize limited bandwidth elsewhere. This shift follows significant public endorsements from Wall Street entities, including BlackRock, Fidelity, and Goldman Sachs, whose CEO has broken with traditional market sentiment to support the bill.
Despite this momentum, the legislative roadmap is now uncertain. While Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have responded with upward movement, market participants are weighing the potential impact of an anticipated Fed hike.
CoinDesk reports that the Senate's decision to postpone the bill disrupts the current trajectory for digital asset laws. Coverage does not yet specify when the committee will revisit the legislation or what specific Senate tasks have superseded the act on the current calendar.
