Regulators are pushing ahead with legislation despite the Clarity Act stalling.

A vote on the Clarity Act last week stalled. Still, pro-crypto regulators have now said they aim to unveil plans to help the digital asset space.

The regulator is hopeful the long-awaited crypto market structure bill will pass.

SEC Chairman Paul Atkins is the latest to throw support behind the crypto bill.

Coinbase settled its FOIA lawsuit against the SEC after the agency admitted it destroyed former Chair Gary Gensler's text messages, securing a $150,000 payment and reforms to the SEC's record-retention policies.

Kraken is seeking a final Delaware court judgment against former auditor Mazars after winning a $22 million arbitration award, arguing the firm's abrupt resignation during heightened U.S. regulatory pressure caused significant financial and operational harm.

SEC leaders Hester Peirce and Paul Atkins said the U.S. is moving toward clearer crypto rules and freer capital markets, with Peirce expecting the Clarity Act to pass this summer and Atkins reaffirming the Trump administration's push to make America the global crypto hub.

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s 2026–2030 draft plan under Paul S. Atkins prioritizes clearer crypto regulation, reduced enforcement overreach, and modernization of agency systems to support innovation while protecting investors.

The SEC has pumped the brakes on its highly anticipated "innovation exemption" for tokenized stocks.
