The US CLARITY Act is scheduled for review on January 15, with the Senate and industry stakeholders engaging in discussions on stablecoins and DeFi.
【BlockBeats】According to industry insiders, the U.S. Congress is actively pushing forward the review of the “Crypto Market Structure Act” (CLARITY Act). The Senate Banking Committee has officially scheduled the review date—January 15, 2026 (Thursday), less than a month away.
Currently, all parties in the Senate are making their final push for this review. On Tuesday, the chairman’s office of the Banking Committee convened an internal consultation meeting, gathering 13 senators who support the crypto industry. During this three-hour meeting, three issues became the focus: first, how to define the ethical standards for crypto industry practitioners; second, the profit distribution mechanism of stablecoins; third, the allocation of Democratic and Republican representatives within the crypto regulatory agencies. Additionally, discussions were held on several DeFi-specific provisions.
Although it is still unclear how many issues have been resolved, the attitudes of all parties after the meeting are optimistic—both Republican and Democratic senators believe that the bill is likely to gain bipartisan support.
While the senators are conducting internal consultations, the crypto industry is also busy. This week’s lobbying activities have already been intensively launched. On Thursday, the Digital Chamber of Commerce will hold a large-scale lobbying event on Capitol Hill, with over 40 representatives directly visiting the Senate to apply pressure. The event begins at 10 a.m., with Patrick Witte, Executive Director of the White House Cryptocurrency Committee, and Wyoming Republican Senator Cynthia Lummis scheduled to speak. The participating companies include several well-known trading platforms, asset management firms, and blockchain infrastructure providers.
In addition to collective lobbying, many industry leaders have also met privately with senators this week to discuss unresolved issues regarding DeFi ecosystem standards and stablecoin yield rates. From this activity, it is evident that the industry attaches great importance to the passage of this bill, as it will directly impact the future regulatory framework and development space of the U.S. crypto industry.
How are the stablecoin yield distributions going to be divided? Still the interest groups arguing among themselves.
DeFi terms are about to be cut again, these people just want to control us all.
The promised January 15th, will it be postponed again? Betting 5 bucks.
Really want to know how the Democrats and Republicans are negotiating, it feels more complicated than the stablecoin issue.
The Senate is playing word games again, but the key is to see the actual implementation of the provisions.
If this bill passes, gas fees are likely to rise again. I'm going to cry to death.
Wait, stablecoin yield distribution? Isn't this just grabbing our stuff?
The DeFi terms section will definitely be a headache, with Democrats and Republicans working together, how could it go smoothly?
Supported by 13 lawmakers, but it still doesn't seem strong enough. This is the key, right?
It's finally going to be implemented, but I still don't believe it will be in our favor.
The stablecoin section will probably be a headache again, and it feels like the DeFi clauses are changing every day.
13 lawmakers in three hours—just listening to it is exhausting... Is there really going to be any outcome?
What kind of tricks can be played in the stablecoin yield distribution? I'm really curious.
Can senators really understand things like DeFi terms...
Three hours of meetings to cover so many topics, it definitely feels like they haven't fully sorted everything out.
The most disgusting part is the ethical standards—are they planning to introduce new regulations again?
If it really passes, will it have an impact on airdrops and such?
Wait, how will the stablecoin yield distribution be divided? That's the real focus.
It's just another power struggle between the Democratic and Republican parties... By the way, will this bill actually pass?

Wait, how are the terms for DeFi being negotiated? Does anyone know? Feels like this is the easiest part to mess up.
---
Three hours and still not resolved, indicating significant disagreements. We'll probably have to argue about it later.
---
It's again about voting rights. Seriously, these politicians always like to play this game.
---
Just hoping it won't be indefinitely postponed like last time. Please don't cause trouble.
---
The distribution of stablecoin yields really needs proper regulation, or else someone will cause a fuss again.
---
Only 13 lawmakers support crypto, and that ratio... is a bit shaky.
---
The yield distribution mechanism determines the future of stablecoins. The chance of this getting stuck is very high.

How to define DeFi? Just thinking about it gives me a headache. This stuff is too complicated.
