According to Crypto in America, the US Senate failed to advance the crypto market structure bill known as the "Clear Act" this week with a 49-50 vote, with Democrats voting as a bloc against it and Republican Senators Collins, Hawley, and Moran joining the opposition. Following the setback, the focus of crypto regulation shifted from Congress to regulatory agencies: the SEC subsequently issued innovation exemption measures, paving a limited pathway for on-chain trading of tokenized US stocks, while the CFTC adopted a no-action stance regarding passive software providers and submitted a broader proposal for crypto market rulemaking to the White House. Meanwhile, Visa announced the closure of a loophole that allowed purchasing memecoins with credit cards in exchange for standard loyalty points, with related processors granted a grace period expected to expire next week. Some Democratic senators involved in the negotiations stated that the "Clear Act" is not "dead," with efforts to restart talks still underway.
