Today is the deadline for the U.S. Senate's summer recess. Although Ajian no longer holds much expectation for procedural progress on CLARITY before the recess, regardless, after today, the market's expectations for the bill will undergo a concentrated adjustment. Even if there is no substantive vote today, as long as the Senate gives a clear statement like "priority handling in September," the market will most likely interpret it as positive, because the uncertainty itself has been narrowing. So it’s not surprising if there is no progress today; it would only be surprising if there were procedural advances beyond expectations. I suggest every trader check the congressional schedule and mainstream crypto media more frequently later today, as this is one of the few moments this month worth closely watching for market news. Especially the stablecoin interest payment clause, which is the provision in the entire bill that most directly affects the actual interests of ordinary users. If this clause is compromised or weakened, it will be a substantial negative for the long-term user appeal of the stablecoin industry. It deserves separate tracking and should not be overshadowed by the big news of whether the bill passes overall or not. Finally, tracking CLARITY over the past few months has also made me realize one thing: legislative news cannot be judged solely by the final outcomes of passage or failure. Every procedural milestone in between (committee votes, scheduling, pre-recess deadlines) is itself an independent information point that can be used for judgment.
