🚨NEW: A group of seven Senate Democrats, including @gillibrandny, @MarkWarner, @SenRubenGallego and @Sen_Alsobrooks, say they are “committed to working in a bipartisan fashion” to pass the Clarity Act.
The statement comes amid early efforts to restart bipartisan talks and gauge the appetite on both sides for returning to the table and getting the Clarity Act passed before the end of the year, according to three sources familiar with the discussions.
News: Banking staff for Warren (D-Mass.) are circulating points against the latest crypto ethics deal.
Warren staff argues the state AG powers are a mirage. Only DOJ can bring enforcement actions, and "no action may be brought" if WH ethics officials clear the crypto activity.
🚨NEW: The @SECGov will hold an open meeting on Friday at 10AM ET to consider whether to issue a release proposing new rules to create a tailored offering regime for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets.
🚨NEW: A coalition of more than two dozen crypto firms and advocacy groups led by @fund_defi is calling on the @SECGov to turn recent guidance on DeFi interfaces into formal rulemaking, warning that informal statements aren’t enough to provide long term certainty.
The push follows staff guidance released earlier this month from the SEC’s Division of Trading and Markets suggesting that certain non-custodial user interfaces like DeFi front ends and wallets may fall outside broker-dealer requirements.
The group says that without formal rules, future SEC leadership could expand the definition of “broker” to include software developers and infrastructure providers, warning the move could chill innovation and deter the development of tools that improve market access and efficiency for investors, a concern echoed by SEC Commissioner @HesterPeirce.

@yairlapid אתה צודק, אבל מותר לך גם להגיד את המילים הברורות שזה גם זועק לכך שכל הקונספציה של השלום שהיינו בה (גם אני) - נשברה לחלוטין וצריך לחשוב אחרת!
@Israel_katz כשהאנשים שבדרך כלל אומרים אמן על כל מילה שיוצאת לך מהפה, עומדים פה ומסבירים לך כמה אתה לא אמין - נראה לי שזה אמור להיות לך ולכל חברייך סדין אדום שאומר לכם שרואים לכם…
