SEC and CFTC chiefs say they will push regulation after CLARITY Act failure

  • The US Senate rejected the CLARITY Act on September 16, failing to reach 60 votes
  • Atkins: the SEC will act decisively within its powers
  • Selig: the CFTC is ready to issue rules for new financial areas
  • Bernstein: stablecoin regulation remains under the GENIUS Act
Why it matters: Crypto rules will be written not by Congress but by the SEC and CFTC — this will speed up regulation but increase the risk of legal disputes.
