White House crypto council left with no staff after all four officials depart
- —Patrick Witt's detail ended Oct. 14; the White House has not named a successor
- —CLARITY Act fell short in a Sept. 15 Senate cloture vote, 49-50 against the 60 needed
- —Bo Hines left in August 2025, David Sacks in March 2026 and Harry Jung in July 2026
- —SEC proposed Regulation Crypto Assets with exemptions at $5M, $20M and $75M fundraising tiers
Why it matters: With no staff, the council cannot push CLARITY Act, shifting US crypto rulemaking to agency rules that are easier to reverse.
