Crypto Regulation Heads to a Crucial Senate Vote as CLARITY Act Advances

After a January delay over a blanket stablecoin yield ban, a revised compromise boosted momentum ahead of a May 14 Senate Banking Committee vote, signaling a potential regulatory framework for crypto and possibly unlocking broader institutional participation, though bipartisan support remains uncertain amid midterm politics and opposition from some lawmakers.
