Trump accepts ethics rules and clears path to major cryptocurrency law

Euronews Portugal14 September 2026 at 12:24

The President of the United States, Donald Trump, accepted ethical restrictions he had long resisted, thus removing the last obstacle to the CLARITY Act, the most significant cryptocurrency legislation ever attempted in the country.

Trump's acceptance of the ethics rules allows the bill to advance to its decisive vote in the Senate, scheduled for Tuesday.

The CLARITY Act represents a landmark in cryptocurrency regulation in the United States, being described as the most ambitious attempt at legislation in this sector to date.

This development comes after a period of resistance from Trump regarding ethical restrictions, whose acceptance was necessary to unblock the legislative process.

Why this matters

The approval of this law could define the future regulatory landscape for cryptocurrencies in the United States, affecting investors, sector companies, and potentially global digital asset markets. Trump's decision to accept ethics rules signals a significant shift in the political approach to blockchain technology and sets precedents for future digital asset legislation.
