U.S. State Governments Accelerate Deployment of Crypto Infrastructure While Washington Moves Slowly at the Federal Level

While the crypto policy debate has long centered on Washington D.C., state governments are now driving some of the most influential developments. New Hampshire's new Blockchain Bill of Rights provides legal protections for digital asset users, including rights to self-custody and a dedicated court channel for blockchain disputes, building comprehensive legal infrastructure. Texas is moving beyond legislation into practical execution, having allocated funds for a strategic Bitcoin reserve and establishing administrative frameworks for its custody and management, creating a replicable operational model. Wyoming demonstrates that state leadership is an ongoing process; even after a bitcoin investment proposal failed, it advanced other innovations like launching the first U.S. state-issued stable token. In contrast, federal progress remains slow, with the CLARITY Act stalled in the Senate despite committee approval. States cannot solve all national issues like regulatory jurisdiction, but they are actively testing and implementing policies, generating momentum and practical data without waiting for federal consensus.

Mid-Year Review of U.S. Crypto Policy: CLARITY Gains Momentum for a Comeback, Who Will Lead the Second Half?

Mid-Point Review of U.S. Crypto Policy: CLARITY Act Gains Momentum, Who Will Lead the Second Half? The U.S. crypto industry is hopeful for a breakthrough as the Senate advances the CLARITY Act, but securing the necessary 60 votes requires bipartisan compromise. With only about 40 legislative days left, the path is tight. The policy agenda is crowded. Alongside CLARITY, multiple crypto tax proposals spun off from the new PARITY Act seek attachment to larger bills. The Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act aims to codify developer protections, and key rules under GENUIS remain under negotiation. The CFTC operates with four vacant commissioner seats, creating uncertainty. A major unresolved battle is over which regulator—state authorities, the CFTC, or the SEC—will gain jurisdiction over prediction markets. The sector also faces the impending departure of two key advocates: SEC Commissioner Hester M. Peirce and Senator Cynthia Lummis. Industry leaders provided cautious perspectives. Sara K. Weed doubts CLARITY will pass this Congress, expecting agencies like the SEC to provide guidance instead. Sulolit "Raj" Mukherjee believes targeted crypto tax provisions have a real chance if attached to must-pass year-end legislation. Rashan Colbert highlights the CFTC's recent efforts to build a regulatory framework for the growing prediction markets sector, warning against an overly broad "gambling" classification that could stifle innovation. The second half of the policy year has begun. The window for action is narrow, but opportunities remain. Sustained bipartisan engagement is crucial for achieving substantive results.

What Does the Outcome of the Midterm Elections Mean for Trump and Crypto?

The article analyzes the potential impact of the upcoming US midterm elections on Trump and cryptocurrency policy. Historically, the president's party loses congressional seats in 90% of midterms since 1946, making a Republican loss in the House highly probable. Current predictions suggest Democrats may take the House while Republicans retain the Senate, resulting in a divided government. Despite potential losses, Trump could still advance crypto-friendly policies through executive orders, agency appointments (if the Senate is held), budget reconciliation, and veto power. However, major structural bills like the CLARITY Act or a comprehensive stablecoin law would likely stall without a Republican majority in both chambers. The crypto industry has invested heavily ($288 million) in the elections to push for favorable legislation before the midterm window closes in mid-2026. While Trump remains the most crypto-friendly US president to date, advancing key reforms may be delayed until after 2028 if the legislative window is missed. The overall pro-crypto shift in US politics is seen as irreversible, even if progress slows temporarily.

"Crypto Czar" Steps Down: 130-Day Political Performance Concludes, How Much of Trump's Crypto Promises Remain?

David Sacks, known as the "Crypto Czar," has stepped down after reaching the 130-day limit of his special government appointment. Initially appointed by former President Trump to lead AI and crypto policy, Sacks was tasked with creating a clear legal framework for the cryptocurrency industry. During his tenure, he achieved several high-profile actions, including banning a central bank digital currency (CBDC), hosting the first White House Crypto Summit, establishing a strategic Bitcoin reserve, and helping pass the GENIUS Act for stablecoin regulation. However, the article argues that these accomplishments were largely symbolic political performances rather than substantive gains for the crypto industry. The White House Crypto Summit was described as a publicity event with no concrete policies announced. The strategic Bitcoin reserve merely repurposed seized assets without new purchases, failing to inject liquidity or provide strong market backing. While the GENIUS Act was a tangible achievement, its counterpart, the CLARITY Act, remains stalled in Congress due to conflicts between banks and crypto firms over stablecoin interest benefits—with recent drafts favoring traditional banks, contrary to initial pro-crypto promises. Sacks will continue as co-chair of the Presidential Technology Advisory Council, focusing on AI policy, with no mention of crypto. The article concludes that Trump’s pro-crypto promises have largely resulted in political theater rather than meaningful regulatory progress.

Is Coinbase Sabotaging Bitcoin De Minimis Tax Exemption In Favor Of Stablecoins?

A controversy is emerging within the crypto community, with rumors that Coinbase is allegedly lobbying against a proposed Bitcoin de minimis tax exemption. This exemption, discussed in congressional committees, would allow crypto users to make small Bitcoin transactions without incurring capital gains taxes, treating it more like a medium of exchange. Industry insiders, like Marty Bent, claim Coinbase is attempting to "nuke" the Bitcoin exemption to instead promote a regulatory framework that exclusively favors stablecoins. Allegedly, Coinbase representatives have told legislators that "No one is using Bitcoin as money" and that the exemption would be "dead on arrival." This has drawn significant criticism from sector leaders, who accuse the exchange of aligning with traditional banking interests and warn it could be a major policy misstep. Coinbase has not officially responded to these allegations.

The Washington Power of the Crypto Sphere

The crypto policy landscape in Washington has evolved significantly, now comprising a network of think tanks, trade associations, and ecosystem-specific advocacy groups. Key organizations include: - **Coin Center (2014)**: The first crypto policy think tank, focused on user rights, self-custody, privacy, and tax reforms like taxing staking rewards only upon sale. - **Blockchain Association (2018)**: The largest industry group with 100+ members, advocating for tax equality, market structure legislation, and DeFi protection. - **DeFi Education Fund (2021)**: Focused on DeFi, protecting developers, empowering users, and promoting permissionless blockchains. - **Solana Policy Institute (2025)**: The first ecosystem-specific group, pushing for tokenized securities and expanded accredited investor definitions. - **Hyperliquid Policy Center (2026)**: Dedicated to regulatory clarity for decentralized perpetual futures trading. Shared priorities include developer protection (via the Blockchain Regulatory Certainty Act), staking tax reform, self-custody rights, and small transaction tax exemptions. While all align on core issues, each specializes in distinct areas—from ideological advocacy (Coin Center) to ecosystem-specific agendas (Solana, Hyperliquid). This reflects a mature, multi-faceted approach to crypto policy engagement.

‘Win-win-win’: Coinbase CEO backs April deadline for CLARITY Act

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and Senator Bernie Moreno are pushing for the stalled CLARITY Act to pass by April 2026, framing it as a "win-win-win" for the crypto industry, traditional banks, and American consumers. The main dispute centers on whether stablecoins should offer rewards, which banks opposing due to fears of deposit outflows. Armstrong, who had previously withdrawn support over regulatory concerns, now believes a compromise is achievable. Political timing is critical, with Moreno aiming to pass the bill before the 2026 midterms slow progress. Polymarket odds for passage have surged to 90%, indicating growing optimism. The effort is positioned as part of a broader push to advance crypto policy under the Trump administration.

CFTC defends prediction markets as part of broader U.S. crypto policy reset

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is defending its federal oversight of prediction markets, framing them as regulated derivatives contracts under commodities law rather than state gambling statutes. Chair Mike Selig announced the agency filed an amicus brief in response to increasing state-level legal challenges. He emphasized the CFTC's exclusive jurisdiction and connected the move to a broader U.S. policy shift supporting crypto innovation. The stance aims to prevent fragmented state regulation and ensure national operational clarity for prediction markets, including those using blockchain technology. The CFTC signals readiness to litigate to maintain federal regulatory authority.

Side Events May Be Drastically Reduced by Over 80%, Is ETHDenver's Glory Fading?

ETHDenver, a major annual Ethereum-focused developer conference, is showing significant signs of decline ahead of its 2026 event. Side events have dropped by approximately 85%, from 668 in 2025 to just 56 this year, reflecting a broader cooling-off in the crypto industry. The event, once known for its community-driven, grassroots hacker ethos, has faced criticism for becoming overly commercialized. In recent years, attendees have reported a shift toward a corporate expo atmosphere, with heavy sponsor presence and brand promotions diluting its original technical and open-source spirit. Additionally, the conference's focus on Ethereum has blurred, as it increasingly included projects and sponsors from outside the Ethereum ecosystem. This has led to concerns about the event losing its core identity, despite organizers' claims that most content remains Ethereum-related. Broader industry trends have also played a role. High expectations for supportive crypto policies under the new U.S. administration have not materialized into substantial market recovery or regulatory clarity, dampening enthusiasm. Furthermore, the 2026 event coincides with the Lunar New Year, limiting participation from Asian communities. Despite these challenges, ETHDenver 2026 continues to emphasize builders and community. The reduction in side events may lead to a more focused experience, though it raises questions about the event’s ability to sustain engagement in a post-bubble market.

South Korea Opens Doors to Corporate Crypto as Hong Kong and Japan Tighten Rules

South Korea has ended its nine-year ban on corporate cryptocurrency investments, allowing public companies to allocate up to 5% of their equity to top-20 digital assets traded on major local exchanges. This policy shift aims to curb capital outflows and align with the country’s 2026 Economic Growth Strategy. In contrast, Hong Kong and Japan are tightening regulations on corporate crypto exposure. Hong Kong’s Securities and Futures Commission is expanding oversight of crypto advisory services, and its stock exchange has rejected listings from crypto-heavy firms. Japan plans to reclassify crypto under stricter financial instruments laws, imposing enhanced disclosure and auditing requirements to mitigate volatility risks. The divergent approaches highlight regional regulatory uncertainty as South Korea embraces institutional crypto adoption while other major Asian economies reinforce safeguards.
