What Happened?

Coinbase (COIN) stock is in focus this week as investors wait to see whether the Clarity Act, a long-awaited crypto market structure bill, can clear a critical Senate vote on Tuesday.

This vote won’t decide the bill’s fate for good. It’s a preliminary step just to keep debate moving forward.

But it’s still a big deal, because without enough votes, the bill could stall out entirely for this session of Congress.

The math is tight. The bill needs 60 votes to survive a filibuster, which means at least seven Democrats need to get on board even with full attendance.

So far, only two Democrats supported it when it passed out of the Senate Banking Committee back in May. Since then, the bill has basically been stuck.

There are two big sticking points.

Banks are worried that stablecoins offering interest-like rewards could pull deposits out of traditional banks and into crypto accounts.

To address that, Republicans added a compromise that lets the Treasury Secretary step in and restrict those rewards if enough deposits start flowing out of community banks.
