The fall Senate calendar reality: Congress reconvened in September 2026 with a full legislative agenda — budget reconciliation, appropriations bills, and multiple regulatory frameworks competing for floor time. The CLARITY Act needs 60 votes to break a filibuster. It had strong committee support (15-9 in Banking Committee, May 2026) but floor vote timing is at the Majority Leader's discretion. ⚖️

🚨CFTC JUST OPENED THE CRYPTO RULEBOOK! @ChairmanSelig says the CFTC is starting rules for crypto markets after Congress failed to pass Clarity. The proposals, Regulation CTX and Regulation CAM, would give exchanges a federal path to offer retail leveraged crypto trading under CFTC oversight. Comments are open for 60 days.

JUST IN: 🇺🇸 CFTC officially proposes first round of rules to regulate US crypto markets.

Wall Street is coming. CFTC doesn't slow down on regulations.

The CFTC is cooking. Mike Selig says, “Under my leadership, the Commission will take every necessary step to establish regulations that are designed to prevent, rather than only prosecute after the fact, fraudulent schemes such as FTX.” “(i) prevent abusive practices in crypto asset markets and CTXs under a uniform national regime (ii) provide market participants with crypto asset-specific contextual information concerning certain requirements and practices that are commonly accepted in the industry and have been found, based on the Commission’s experience in overseeing aspects of crypto asset markets since 2014, to represent industry best practices for compliance with the regulatory requirements that attach to CTXs (iii) codify through rulemaking a subcategory of designated contract market registration, known as a crypto asset market, that is purpose-built specifically for CTXs.” This is huge. The entire world will follow USA and move to cement this industry as the future of global capital markets. Be more bullish.

BREAKING: 🇺🇸 CFTC proposes its first-ever rules to regulate the U.S. crypto market. The rules would focus on: 1. Stopping abusive practices across crypto markets. 2. Setting clear standards for common crypto industry practices. 3. Creating a crypto-specific market registration framework. 4. Adding protections to prevent fraud and FTX-style failures.

🇺🇸The U.S. Treasury has pulled back proposed reporting rules aimed at self-custody crypto wallets and crypto mixers. The rules would have forced crypto companies to gather and report additional details on users and their transactions. A huge step forward for privacy, self-custody, and the broader crypto industry.
