Last week, in the background of the Senate\u2019s desperate scramble to get through the backlog of agenda items that have been piling up all summer, a dramatic showdown of money and power took place over the cryptocurrency industry\u2019s top legislative priority, the CLARITY Act, which would sort digital assets into different categories and split regulation\u2014though regulation is a strong word for the proposed framework in the bill\u2014between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the smaller and more industry-friendly Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).<\/p>\n

The crypto industry was hoping the threat posed by their $136 million war chest would scare enough Democrats to win the 60 votes necessary to overcome a filibuster before the August recess began, and the future of the legislation would become all that much more uncertain ahead of the November midterms.<\/p>\n

But amidst outrage over the $1.4 billion crypto windfall (and counting) that President Trump has taken in during his second term, along with concerns over insufficient safeguards against illicit finance and a stablecoin yield loophole threatening bank deposits, even the most historically reliable allies for the industry within the Senate Democratic caucus\u2014who still support the CLARITY Act\u2019s broader vision\u2014were steadfast in their opposition to the bill in its current form. Despite the industry\u2019s desperation for a vote last week, Democrats managed to delay it until after the recess, and duck for now the scorched-earth revenge campaign from the industry\u2019s political spending arm that might have resulted from voting no.<\/p>\n

Though the CLARITY Act isn\u2019t dead yet, the delay is a bad sign for the crypto industry\u2019s legislative agenda, and for their tight relationship with a small, but up to this point sufficient, faction of the Democratic Party. There are even indications that support for crypto is starting to be a hindrance for Democrats in primaries, even with all the campaign cash it brings along.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe tides have shifted,\u201d says Mark Hays, senior policy director for cryptocurrency and fintech with Americans for Financial Reform. In a midterm environment favorable to Democrats and a base increasingly skeptical of outside spending and even crypto itself, the industry\u2019s grip over the Democratic lawmakers they bought during the last election cycle is slowly beginning to loosen.<\/p>\n

The crypto industry spent more than $130 million in congressional races in 2024 to buy bipartisan support for the CLARITY Act and its compatriot, the GENIUS Act, which opened the doors for lightly regulated stablecoin issuance in the United States. Around $40 million of that pile went to help Sen. Bernie Moreno (R-OH), now one of their top allies in the Senate, oust three-term Democratic incumbent Sherrod Brown, who was outspoken against the industry before his defeat.<\/p>\n

The 2024 elections were an incredible victory for the industry. Not only was Donald Trump, the self-proclaimed \u201ccrypto president,\u201d headed back to the White House, but the incoming Congress had a Republican majority, loyal to both their president and their funders, and a large enough group of Democrats who were either affirmatively pro-crypto or scared enough by the cautionary tale in Ohio to vote in line with the industry\u2019s wishes.<\/p>\n

CLARITY passed the House with 78 Democratic votes last July. The same day, the GENIUS Act received 18 Democratic votes in the Senate and was sent to the president\u2019s desk to be signed into law. The future was looking bright for the digital asset world. Together, the two bills could bring the long-sought veneer of legitimacy and regulatory relief the industry needed to be a competitive player in the financial system.<\/p>\n

But other monied interests, namely the banking lobby fighting the stablecoin yield loophole, had enough sway to slow progress down in the Senate, combined with the illicit finance issues raised by law enforcement groups.<\/p>\n

The backlash over crypto-centered corruption from the Trump administration has been the biggest roadblock for the CLARITY Act this summer. Senate Democrats are demanding an ethics provision in the CLARITY Act to limit conflict-of-interest concerns with top government officials, including the president and members of Congress. Trump won\u2019t agree to any ethics provision with real power to prevent him from enriching himself on the back of the crypto industry.<\/p>\n

After Republicans released a draft with a laughably weak ethics provision signed off by the president, seven of the most pro-crypto Democrats in the Senate released a statement in opposition. \u201cKey provisions including those addressing ethics for elected officials, consumer protection, illicit finance, conflicts of interest and market integrity must be strengthened,\u201d read the statement from some of crypto\u2019s biggest proponents in office, including Sens. Angela Alsobrooks (D-MD) and Ruben Gallego (D-AZ).<\/p>\n

In the weeks since, opposition to the current language among pro-crypto Democrats has only hardened. Republicans tried to address Democratic concerns with new ethics language, but the White House\u2019s failure to respond to it was a major reason for the delay in the vote.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s crypto ventures are particularly politically salient for the Democratic Party right now, as it homes in on Trump and Republican corruption as a central message in the upcoming midterm elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are more [Democrats] saying, \u2018We don\u2019t have to just accept the industry narrative here. We can talk about the very good reasons why these practices are anathema to politicians who are standing up to corruption.,\u2019\u201d Hays told the Prospect<\/em>.<\/p>\n

THE DELAY COMES AT A PARTICULARLY BAD TIME<\/strong> for the industry, whose struggles to acquire a mainstream customer base have led them to rely on financial influence over lawmakers as a key growth strategy. During an election cycle where outrage at outside spending from corporate interests and groups like AIPAC is dominating some of the most important races, Trump\u2019s crypto corruption fits into a broader outrage growing within the electorate around big money\u2019s hold over politics.<\/p>\n

Senate Democrats circulated polling last week that found 84 percent of Democratic primary voters had an unfavorable view of crypto-backed candidates, and 76 percent had an unfavorable opinion of the industry itself. That puts crypto\u2019s favorability below that of big banks, oil companies, or even data centers. So moderate Democrats who are trying to use the corruption message as a cudgel against Republicans may need to fend off accusations from the left about the same behavior.<\/p>\n

Indeed, in the critical Democratic primary to replace Sen. Tina Smith in Minnesota, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan has used Rep. Angie Craig\u2019s support for crypto against her. \u201cAngie Craig voted to let Trump make billions selling crypto coins. I won\u2019t,\u201d Flanagan says in a direct-to-camera ad. Craig, the ranking Democrat on the House Agriculture Committee, voted for the GENIUS and CLARITY Acts, and boasts a top rating from Stand With Crypto, an industry-based watchdog, and as Flanagan pointed out in a statement to the Prospect, <\/em>\u201cshe missed the first day of the Minnesota State Fair to headline a cryptocurrency conference in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where she opened for Eric Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n

In a cycle dominated by discussions around outside spending in elections, powerful monied interests like crypto and the candidates they back are running into a bit more friction then they are used to. For example, last Tuesday Will Lawrence, a co-founder of the Sunrise Movement, won his primary for a swing House seat in a campaign defined by data centers. On his website, Lawrence pointed to crypto spending on behalf of one of his opponents in a list of talking points focused on corporate interests.<\/p>\n

As Hays points out, the issue of crypto spending can be particularly salient where AI interests and data centers are big issues. \u201cYou don\u2019t have to talk to people about just a crypto narrative, you can talk about a narrative tied to AI and data centers,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just Senate Democrats leaving crypto hanging. While calls to pass the CLARITY Act have only gotten louder from Republicans in the House seeking financial backing from the industry over the last few weeks and months, their colleagues across the aisle who were once forceful proponents of the legislation have gone mute.<\/p>\n

The House Financial Services subcommittee on digital assets held a field hearing to promote the CLARITY Act on Wall Street three weeks ago, ostensibly to pressure the Senate into passing the bill and prepare the House to jump into action once they did. But it was also an opportunity for members of the subcommittee and representatives from the industry to cozy up and discuss mutual back-scratching.<\/p>\n

Not one Democrat showed up. Even the two Democratic co-sponsors of the CLARITY Act on the subcommittee, Reps. Ritchie Torres (D-NY) and Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ)\u2014who have both been benefactors of the industry\u2019s generous spending habits\u2014sat it out. Reps. Torres and Gottheimer did not respond to a request for comment.<\/p>\n

For those there to advocate for the passage of the CLARITY Act, there was an understanding that some Democrats would be in attendance, according to a source familiar with the matter, and it was a disappointment to find them absent.<\/p>\n

EVEN WITH THE ALL-BUT-GUARANTEED LOSS<\/strong>, crypto players were still pushing hard for a vote on CLARITY last week. For the industry, the hope was that dangling oodles of cash their PACs have on hand over the heads of Democrats would be enough to scare them if they had to make a yes or no vote on the record. Even if Democrats disobeyed them, a failed vote will still provide a record of who is really loyal when push comes to shove, and who they will have to spend against.<\/p>\n

The hard-line stance from moderate Democratic senators doesn\u2019t mean they\u2019ve suddenly adopted a position on crypto shared by their progressive colleagues and the party\u2019s base. It was partly a warning to Republicans and the industry: Force a vote through and it will fail, but hold out for a compromise and maybe something can get done down the road.<\/p>\n

Democratic officials made that warning even more explicit behind the scenes, according to reporting from Semafor, telling industry leaders that a vote before a compromise could be reached would kill any future engagement on the bill. But the crypto world was desperate for a resolution. \u201cYou have to hold it on the record for the PAC funding side,\u201d an industry executive told Semafor.<\/p>\n

Senate Republicans going into last week were fully prepared to force a vote through, if not to pass the CLARITY Act, then to secure a wave of funding with their Senate majority hanging in the balance. But with a packed calendar before recess, they decided to punt. (Republicans had their own problems, too: Sens. Josh Hawley (R-MO) and Jerry Moran (R-KS) both came out as no votes without changes.<\/p>\n

The only current Democratic senator up for re-election in a vulnerable state is Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), who a year ago voted in favor of the GENIUS Act, but has yet to publicly discuss his intentions for CLARITY. Ossoff is currently leading in the polls and has a massive fundraising advantage. He ended May with $42 million cash on hand while his opponent had just $2 million. But the difference, $40 million, is the same amount the crypto industry funneled into Moreno\u2019s winning campaign, and this time the industry has even more cash to work with. Ossoff did not weigh in on the CLARITY Act drama as it was unfolding, and neither his office nor his campaign responded to a request for comment.<\/p>\n

Crypto PACs could, of course, pour money into the other battleground races if the vote fails, even if the Democratic candidate isn\u2019t an active part of that failure. Sherrod Brown, who lost in 2024 amid a flood of crypto cash, is running to reclaim his spot in the Senate against Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH), who has used the opportunity to come out in enthusiastic support of the CLARITY Act, pursuing crypto funding for his campaign from the halls of Congress.<\/p>\n

Even though Democrats successfully prevented a vote, the industry\u2019s threats haven\u2019t fallen on completely deaf ears. Pro-crypto Democrats are still working behind the scenes to get to a version of the bill that won\u2019t undermine their corruption message and that their base can stomach.<\/p>\n

If a version of the legislation designed by and for the crypto industry passes, even with the changes Democrats are demanding, it still threatens to unleash a wave of lightly regulated digital assets into the financial world, which financial economists and consumer watchdogs warn threatens the stability of the entire economy. \u201cSome of the scariest things have nothing to do with Trump and everything to do with how they could turn the entire financial system upside down,\u201d Hays said.<\/p>\n

As gratifying as it may be to see an industry almost entirely propped up by their bought-and-paid-for political support get the cold shoulder with $136 million on the line, the Senate may really have just saved crypto from itself. A failed vote not only would have meant the potential splintering of an invaluable relationship with portions of the Democratic Party\u2014especially ahead of a midterm election where Democrats are likely to at least take the House and maybe the Senate\u2014but it would have meant the sudden death of any progress made on advancing the CLARITY Act. Clawing back from a fall like that would have been almost insurmountable. With the vote delayed, CLARITY still lives.<\/p>\n

As a wise man once said, an object in motion stays in motion. This object is coming\u2014weakened and easier to stop, sure\u2014but for the moment still coming, for the security of the entire American financial system, and the whole world economy along with it.<\/p>\n
