CLARITY Act 2026 Odds ‘Extremely Low’ if Not Passed Before April: Exec
The US CLARITY Act, designed to give crypto firms regulatory certainty, faces a critical deadline: it must clear the Senate Banking Committee by the end of April or its chances of passage in 2026 drop dramatically, according to Galaxy Digital researcher Alex Thorn.

The current stalemate centers on a debate over stablecoin reward structures, with broader concerns about DeFi and developer protections looming. Investment bank TD Cowen warns the bill may not become law until 2027 and could only take effect in 2029.
