Thune to file motion for September vote on CLARITY Act bill

Republican Senate Leader John Thune plans to file a cloture petition on the Digital Asset Market Clarity (CLARITY) Act before the August recess, aiming to set up a floor vote in September. This signals GOP leadership's intent to prioritize the bill after the Senate's break. However, the bill faces hurdles: the need for 60 votes, banking lobby concerns over stablecoin yields affecting local banks, and an ongoing ethics provision negotiation with the White House requiring disclosure of crypto holdings by officials. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong supports the bill, stating it would foster investment and innovation. Analysts note the September timeline is tight, with only 14 working days before the October recess for midterm campaigns, making passage uncertain.

Bitcoin Miners' Turn Toward AI Loses Its Wow-Factor for Wall Street

Bitcoin miners' pivot to artificial intelligence (AI) and high-performance computing (HPC) is transforming their business models, but investor enthusiasm for new infrastructure deals has significantly waned, indicating a more selective market as AI-hosting strategies become mainstream. An analysis shows the market reaction to AI infrastructure announcements has weakened substantially over the past two years. While the size and value of contracts have increased, the average stock price movement on announcement day has fallen from about 24% for early deals to around 10% for recent ones. The median gain has also halved. This suggests investors now place greater emphasis on execution, financing, and long-term profitability rather than just headline contract values. This cooling sentiment is evident in the reaction to specific deals. Early agreements, like those from Core Scientific and TeraWulf, triggered stock surges of 40-60%. In contrast, more recent mega-deals from companies like TeraWulf, CleanSpark, and Bitdeer resulted in much more modest gains of 5-12%, with some gains fading by market close. Stock performance reflects this shift. While demand for AI infrastructure remains high, the TEM AI Infrastructure Growth Index is down about 28.5% from its June peak, aligning with a broader pullback in related sectors like semiconductors.

Trezor: Your keys are always held by someone. And that someone should be you.

Following a recent security incident with a competing hardware wallet, this article defends the concept of self-custody and clarifies its core principles. It argues that while the specific vulnerability was serious, it represents a failure of one product, not of hardware wallets or self-custody in general. The piece cautions against overreactions like abandoning self-custody for exchanges or hastily adopting overly complex multi-signature setups for average users. The author's central argument is that someone always holds your Bitcoin keys—the only question is who. Choosing a custodian (like an exchange) shifts the risk to trusting a third party's honesty and solvency, placing you back in the system Bitcoin was designed to escape. With a hardware wallet, you trust only that the device was built correctly—a claim that can be verified due to open-source code and security audits. The stated mission is to make self-custody as simple and intuitive as possible, moving it from a niche for experts to an obvious choice for everyone. The article concludes by emphasizing that self-custody’s inherent responsibility is the very point of true ownership, and that transparency and verification, not blind trust, are what make it stronger.

CleanSpark Misses Wall Street Revenue Estimates, Shares Drop

Bitcoin mining firm CleanSpark (Nasdaq: CLSK) reported Q3 FY2026 revenue of $138 million, missing Wall Street consensus estimates of $142.2 million. The figure represents a 30.5% year-over-year decline from $198 million. The company posted a net loss of $239 million ($0.89 per basic share), a stark reversal from a net profit of $257 million ($0.90 per share) in the same quarter last year. Its stock fell 5.5% on Thursday but rebounded 3% in Friday's premarket, trading above $13.10. CleanSpark is diversifying beyond Bitcoin mining, recently signing a 20-year lease with an unnamed investment-grade tech company for a 175-megawatt data center in Georgia, a deal estimated to generate $6.6 billion in contract revenue.

Two Senators Propose Exempting Trump from Crypto Business Taxes

Two U.S. Senators, Republican Thom Tillis and Democrat Ruben Gallego, have proposed an amendment that could exempt former President Donald Trump from taxes on his crypto business income for many years, potentially saving him millions. The amendment would allow Trump to avoid capital gains tax if he reinvests proceeds from asset sales and holds them until death. Trump reported $1.4 billion in income from cryptocurrency and meme coin projects for 2025. Without the deferral, he would face an immediate 20% tax on gains. As president, he is not required to divest income-generating assets. Uncertainty over an "ethical aspect," demanded by Democratic congressmen, has delayed Senate consideration of the CLARITY bill before the recess. Senate Republican leader John Thune did not file a cloture motion by August 7 to advance the vote, citing protracted negotiations with the administration. The Senate is on recess until September 14, with few sessions scheduled before the midterm elections on November 3. Reports conflict on whether Trump agreed to the ethical provisions in late July meetings with senators. Meanwhile, in early August, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer introduced a bill to create an independent anti-corruption bureau with the power to hold the U.S. president and officials accountable for illicit funds, including from cryptocurrencies.
