After CLARITY Act failure, US regulators to speed up their own crypto rules
- —The Senate rejected the CLARITY Act on September 15, with half of the upper chamber opposed
- —SEC Chairman Atkins promised to act decisively 'with or without legislation'
- —Bernstein expects norms on token classification and requirements for non-custodial protocols
- —Agencies may speed up approval of perpetual futures on real assets
Why it matters: SEC and CFTC rules will replace legislation but remain dependent on political shifts, a key risk for the industry.
