VangAI analysis

VangAI edge: -50 pp

  • The CLARITY Act failed a Senate vote on September 15, 2026, with a 49-50 result, falling short of the 60 votes needed to advance.
  • The bill is not formally dead but is expected to face greater challenges after the upcoming midterm elections.
  • The legislative calendar has limited time before the October 1, 2026, deadline, reducing the likelihood of the bill's passage.
  • Opposition from key senators and concerns over ethics provisions have hindered the bill's progress.

It's like betting on a team to win after they've already been eliminated from the tournament.
