Well Russia is probably looking for a way around current sanctions and how to avoid future sanctions, because at one time they were quite hostile to crypto.  Also, your deep state statement is myopic as if republicans aren't part of the deep state.  You didn't explicitly state this but rather implicitly.

I believe the Clarity Act will fail unless conflict of interests limits are placed on federal officials, in particular the president.

Not this year, but the chance will be higher next year, I don't think Clarity Act will go through on 14-15 september vote because it's near midterms and even if there is enough time, the Democratic side wants broader restriction to bar the President and families from issuing or sponsoring digital assets, even the already operating ones. FYI, the odd in prediction market for the Clarity Act to pass is low for 2026 but pretty high for Q3 of 2027 around 70% if I remember correctly.

Regulation have never been a huge benefit to users because their main purpose is to manage and control us. But that does not mean they're completely useless. Having a clear legal framework can help minimize fraud and make the market more transparent.

As I understand it, the core purpose of the clarity Act is to distinguish between digital commodities and digital securities, which has been a major point of contention between the SEC and CFTC. The bill also require exchanges to meet certain standards for asset custody, anti money laundering compliance...Isn't that a good thing?

We can't expect the government to protect us and fight for our fairness while also refusing to pay taxes or be monitored. Everything comes at a cost.

Chances of approval became questionable now, because it faced lots of delays and also resistant from various sector.

This law might not pass as fast as what people think, but there's provably a chance that US government will approve it. Since for sure they don't want to get left behind by many countries that plans to create regulatory framework on digital assets.

If Clarity act will successfully pass for sure it will give positive result to stable coins and those businesses that adopts crypto since finally it gives them now legal clarity.

But hopefully it will not lead people towards possible effect it can give on Bitcoin, since for what I see it will not give direct impact in this coin, but let see maybe people think bullish after this law passed.

After watching and waiting for the Clarity Act decision, I came to the conclusion that in my opinion the Clarity Act was used as a game of political attraction that would continue to be uncertain about the decision. On the one hand those who are pro continue to fight to be truly legalized but on the other hand those who refuse hard enough have strong space. So ultimately the Clarity Act won't actually make the crypto industry free for all banks unless its policies filter through regulatory requirements and restrictions.

Man, i know it's good thing to make crypto  legitimate to use because it will be treated as a digital commodities. Nevertheless, it will be benefiting for the brokers, not users.

However, the problem is that much more complicated than that. Look at how democrats intentionally blocking the draft from getting passed. So it's not only about yes or not, but there is also political reason involved here.

Republican has only 53 seats while it needs at least 60 seats to be passed. So if all of democrats abandon it, then it will never get passed. Also there are still loopholes in this draft that still needs to be fixed.

Seeing how currency regulation plays out in some countries, one certainly wouldn't want this industry to go through the "meat grinder" of regulation.

We’ll have to wait. We won’t know anything until at least the autumn (september). I expect the Clarity Act to be adopted, after all, the bill has been put forward for consideration. The regulation of an entire industry is at stake, so I assume this issue can't be left unresolved.

It will undoubtedly have a positive impact on business, the Clarity Act, as it will establish rules that are clear to everyone. However, it is unlikely to benefit the average user, since their interests are the regulator's least concern. It seems to me that this law will shift the landscape from "digital financial freedom" toward a lack thereof. To what extent? We’ll find out later.

I believe it will pass, and it will affect thousands of people regardless of geography.

The clarity act have no much influence on bitcoin so for that reason most of the bitcoin users that picked interest I the claritact have began to let things be since the political undertones around the act have taken a dippertrend lately, the act is going to put alot of limitations on some key players whose business are going to be affected so for that, they will definitely try to push it under the carpet for as long as possible to allow them the chance to use cryptocurrency as some form of cover., so we shouldn't expect clarity act law to be passed soon.
