CLARITY Act: The Crypto Market Draws its Own Weapons, and Sheriffs Lower theirs

The CLARITY Act has just lost a major opponent, which is the National Sheriffs’ Association (NSA). This latter, who for months had been blocking the crypto regulation text, has now thrown in the towel… this, ten days before the crucial vote in the Senate. And meanwhile, another little bomb is circulating and this could plunge the market and bitcoin.

In brief

The CLARITY Act Pauses as the Sheriff Surrenders

After months of bombarding the US Senate, the National Sheriffs’ Association (NSA) finally bows the knee. Although it still does not support the CLARITY Act, it does stop putting obstacles in its way, and that’s already quite something. A neutrality rather than outright opposition that could change everything with only ten days left until the final vote scheduled for September 15, 2026. This vote that requires 60 votes, Republicans alone already hold 53 of them.
