Galaxy Research recently cut its odds for the Clarity Act becoming law in 2026 from 50% down to 30%. This sharp drop highlights growing doubts about the bill’s path forward, mainly caused by a packed Senate calendar slowing progress.

The Clarity Act aims to regulate digital asset markets more clearly. It passed the House back in July 2025 and moved through the Senate Banking Committee earlier this year. However, the Senate has yet to set a date for the key floor vote that would push the bill closer to becoming law.

Lawmakers face many competing priorities, leaving little room for this bill. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer’s schedule and political dynamics involving former President Trump could influence when or if it reaches a vote. Both are key players whose decisions might still alter the bill’s fate.

This development also matches the general market mood, which has grown less optimistic about the Clarity Act’s passage within this timeframe. Investors and analysts are adjusting expectations as delays mount.

Keeping an eye on Senate announcements is critical, as any sign of scheduling or endorsements from influential figures could quickly shift the outlook.
