Trump accepts 80% of CLARITY bill's anti-corruption provisions

  • Trump agreed to ~80% of the bipartisan conflict-of-interest proposal
  • Large stakes in crypto companies would be sold or placed in a blind trust without the owner's involvement
  • State attorneys general would be able to sue exchanges for listing banned assets
  • A Senate procedural vote is set for September 15 and requires 60 votes
Why it matters: Trump's concession could attract Democratic votes and speed up passage of a law defining the powers of the SEC and CFTC.
