CLARITY Act decides the fate of the year before August's recess

On 13 July, Crypto In America reported that the CLARITY Act legislative process had entered a critical window, with only about four weeks left before the August parliamentary recess, and was considered by industry to be the last opportunity to push for a fully encrypted money market structure legislation to land this year. This week will be marked by important points: an updated legislative text combining the two editions of the programme of the Senate Banking Commission and the Agriculture Commission will be ready, which will focus on the progress of the negotiations, the reservations and the differences to be resolved. Two core issues remain unresolved: first, the final state of the Zone Block Chain Regulatory Determination Act is in doubt, and the definition of non-trust software developers as "remittance service providers" is still in the game; and secondly, ethical provisions have not yet been agreed with the White House, and Democratic and some Republican parliamentarians have called for a conflict-of-interest prevention mechanism against the $1 billion-dollar-encrypted currency gains of Trump. The political situation has further increased the variables: the death of Republican Senator Graham and the continued absence of McConnell have led to a significant narrowing of the wrong space for bills that would have required 60 votes, and to an unprecedented rise in the importance of the Democratic Party vote. Differences in prospects are evident in industry. Kristin Smith, President of the Solana Institute for Policy Studies, is optimistic that there is a practical path to passage and that the momentum for a court-wide vote is gathering. Alex Thorn, the head of Galaxy Digital Research, is more cautious, has been reduced to 50 per cent through probability, warning that priorities such as the Defense Authorization Act are squeezing legislative time and that if the bill is blocked in the course of the year, US encryption innovation will continue to flow。

ASSESSMENT BY THE GOVERNMENT OF BOLIVIA OF THE INTEGRATION OF USDT INTO THE NATIONAL PAYMENT SYSTEM

According to Criptonotias, the Minister of Economy and Public Finance of Bolivia, José Gabriel Espinoza, indicated that the Government was conducting a technical assessment of the possibility of integrating USDT into the national payment system so that it could circulate in the economic system, like the United States dollar and the Boliviano. Espinoza indicated that Bolivia had now lifted its ban on encrypted assets, but still lacked a complete regulatory framework, and that there was a need to further improve the rules and take into account the anti-money-laundering requirements of the country, which was still on the FATF ash list. Owing to the chronic shortage of foreign exchange, USDT has been widely used in fuel procurement and day-to-day transactions in Bolivia since 2024. In April of this year, the State-owned Banco Unión integrated USDT into the electronic purse, Yasta, and Banco FIE launched an encrypted account service to support USDT。

Wall Street Bank joined forces to push a monetized deposit network against a stable currency expansion

On 13 July, Bloomberg reported that several large banks in the United States, including Morgan Chase, the United States Bank, Citicorp, the Bank of Rich Countries and HSBC, had announced the formation of a joint network, operated by The Clearing House, to link dollar bank deposits with block chains in response to the rapid expansion of the United States dollar, represented by USDT, USDC, in the area of payments and settlement. The network is scheduled to go online next year, with the goal of interconnecting the intra-bank block-link system, prioritizing the wholesale payment of services and the management of liquidity. Data from Artemis Analytics show that the volume of stable currency transactions in 2025 was about $33 trillion, and Bloomberg intelligence predicts a related payment flow or more than $50 trillion in 2030, a trend that the banking industry believes has created a direct competitive pressure on traditional deposits and payments。
