Coinbase, Circle and Bullish Jump as Clarity Act Proponents Express Optimism About Bill

Coinbase, Circle and Bullish climbed as traders bet the Clarity Act could advance, with bitcoin also up about 2%, analysts said.

  • On Tuesday, Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott said the Clarity Act has a "really good shot" of passing in September, while White House Council of Advisors for Digital Assets Executive Director Patrick Witt noted lawmakers are nearing a "grand bargain" before the Sept. 15 vote.
  • The Clarity Act seeks to establish clearer rules for digital assets and trading platforms, creating a regulatory framework that companies like Coinbase and Bullish view as more difficult for future administrations to undo.
  • On Wednesday, crypto stocks outperformed the broader market, with Coinbase and Bullish shares rising about 8% each and Circle gaining nearly 10% following investor optimism surrounding the pending legislative vote.
  • Although Senators Ruben Gallego and Thom Tillis proposed an ethics provision for the bill, the White House has not publicly responded, and Democrats maintain they will withhold support without it.
  • Investors are shifting capital from AI-related stocks following a strong run, with market analysts noting this reversal combined with legislative progress is currently driving interest in the digital asset sector.
