Coinbase CEO disappointed Senate did not take up CLARITY bill, eyes September

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said on X the Senate did not take up the CLARITY bill this week, calling the outcome disappointing while expressing gratitude and backing Senate Majority Leader John Thune’s pledge to bring the bill forward in September. Armstrong added that interest in the technology continues to grow regardless of the congressional calendar, Congress has an important role to play, and voters are closely watching who helps and who blocks the bill’s passage. He said the effort is closer than ever to its goal and urged lawmakers to finish the bill in September.
