On Sept. 16, Saylor <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/saylor\/status\/2100184378298994891\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">outlined his outlook after the CLARITY Act stalled<\/a>, arguing that regulators, banks, and capital markets can keep moving without new congressional action.<\/p>\n<p>Saylor wrote on X:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWith CLARITY stalled, I expect the SEC, CFTC, and Treasury to advance rules under existing law, banks to expand bitcoin custody and loans against it, and more capital to favor bitcoin and digital credit. GENIUS supports stablecoin adoption. Progress need not wait for Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>His comments came one day after the Senate <a href=\"https:\/\/www.senate.gov\/legislative\/LIS\/roll_call_votes\/vote1192\/vote_119_2_00234.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">rejected cloture on the motion to proceed to H.R. 3633<\/a> in a 49-50 vote. The legislation would set up a system for the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to regulate the offer and sale of digital commodities.<\/p>\n<p>Saylor has made a similar case before, arguing that BTC\u2019s trajectory is not dependent on Congress completing a broader crypto market structure framework. He previously maintained that<a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/regulation-and-legal\/saylor-says-bitcoin-doesnt-need-clarity-as-senate-delays-vote\/\"> bitcoin does not depend on passage of the CLARITY Act<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Regulators Are Already Advancing Crypto Rules<\/h2>\n<p>Federal agencies have continued moving ahead under existing authority. On Aug. 18, the SEC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/newsroom\/press-releases\/2026-76-sec-proposes-new-regulation-crypto-assets\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">proposed Regulation Crypto Assets<\/a>, which would establish new exemptions and regulatory conditions for certain investment contracts involving crypto assets.<\/p>\n<p>Treasury is separately implementing the GENIUS Act, which Saylor cited as supporting stablecoin adoption. The department <a href=\"https:\/\/home.treasury.gov\/news\/press-releases\/sb0605\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">opened proposed rulemaking for the payment stablecoin law<\/a> on Aug. 17, seeking public comment on rules governing the issuance, offering, and sale of payment stablecoins in the United States.<\/p>\n<p>Those developments support Saylor\u2019s broader point that bitcoin\u2019s regulatory environment can continue evolving even while comprehensive market structure legislation remains stalled in Congress. Treasury\u2019s implementation of the GENIUS Act also puts stablecoins at the center of a separate regulatory track that does not depend on passage of the CLARITY Act. Stablecoins are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bitcoin.com\/get-started\/what-are-stablecoins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">crypto assets designed to maintain a relatively stable value<\/a>, typically by being pegged to a fiat currency such as the U.S. dollar.<\/p>\n<h2>Banks and Digital Credit Expand Saylor\u2019s Bitcoin Thesis<\/h2>\n<p>Saylor\u2019s latest statement also points to banks as a major channel for bitcoin\u2019s next phase of institutional expansion. He expects financial institutions to increase BTC custody and loans secured by the asset, extending the crypto further into conventional banking and credit markets.<\/p>\n<p>He has previously pushed for <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/saylor-bitcoin-bank-integration-99-percent\/\">greater bitcoin integration with banks, custodians, and financial markets<\/a>. Custody allows institutions to hold BTC for customers, while bitcoin-backed lending lets borrowers use the asset as collateral without selling it.<\/p>\n<p>The Strategy executive chairman\u2019s reference to \u201cdigital credit\u201d also reflects Strategy\u2019s capital-market approach. Strategy held 845,050 BTC as of Sept. 13, and the company has repurchased $139 million of STRC, one of its <a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/strategys-bitcoin-war-chest-sat-still-while-saylor-defended-strc\/\">bitcoin-linked credit products<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>With the CLARITY Act stalled, Saylor\u2019s position is that bitcoin adoption, stablecoin regulation, bank participation, and digital credit can continue advancing through regulators and financial institutions without waiting for another congressional vote.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/news.bitcoin.com\/crypto-news\/saylor-sees-bitcoin-winning-as-regulators-move-without-congress\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Bitcoin News ) Key Takeaways Saylor expects federal agencies to advance crypto rules under existing law.
