Senator Cynthia Lummis issued a fresh warning on Wednesday about the timing and urgency of the long-awaited CLARITY Act, a bill intended to lay out a clearer regulatory framework for the crypto industry. In her comments, the pro-crypto lawmaker focused on what she described as the real-world risk to software developers if the legislation does […]

Political efforts tied to the crypto industry scored another set of wins in Texas, strengthening the case that the sector’s influence in US politics remains strong under a more pro-digital asset administration. According to reporting from Eleanor Terret of Crypto In America, the crypto industry went 6-for-6 backing winning candidates in the Texas primary runoffs held Tuesday night. Anti-Crypto Hits At The Ballot Box One of the biggest results came from the Democratic primary runoff in Texas’s 18th Congressional District. In that race, Terret reported that Rep. Christian Menefee defeated 20-year incumbent Rep. Al Green. Fairshake, the industry’s leading super political action committee (PAC), took credit for the win after spending roughly $6.5 million on the race, largely through advertisements supporting Menefee.

TD Cowen keeps CLARITY Act passage odds at 40% due to a worsening political environment. The Senate Banking Committee advanced the bill, but it still needs 60 votes in the full Senate. The main conflict is Section 307, which bars Congress and the President from crypto trading and targets Trump’s ventures. Jaret Seiberg, an analyst […] The post TD Cowen Sees Worsening Political Risks for the CLARITY Act appeared first on Live Bitcoin News.
I don’t even know what a software engineer is supposed to be doing anymore. Do we code? Do we architect systems? AI agents have changed everything, and I don’t even know what to think. I don’t write much code anymore. In my day job, I ask Claude to do most of the analysis, planning, and coding. My side projects are 100% written by Claude Code, and in some of these, I literally haven’t even reviewed the code because I trust Claude and because gStack reviews the code for me. So I can still call myself a software developer, but I don’t think I can call myself a programmer anymore. But even in my role as a “software developer,” what I am doing is radically different. Writing code is a completely different animal from directing AI to write code. While I review the code that I write, that is not the same as reviewing the code that an agent writes for me. Having an agent write code is like having another developer write your code for you and then reviewing it. It’s a totally different exper

The odds of the CLARITY Act becoming law this year are fading, according to TD Cowen, even after the bill cleared key legislative hurdles in the Senate. While the measure successfully passed through the Senate Agriculture Committee and the Senate Banking Committee, a full Senate vote—and the final approval needed to send the bill to the finish line—now looks increasingly unlikely before year’s end. CLARITY Act Momentum Hits New Wall TD Cowen managing director Jaret Seiberg, writing in a Tuesday note from the firm’s Washington Research Group, said his team remains pessimistic that the CLARITY Act will be enacted this year. In his view, the main challenge is political: whether Democrats can support the bill if it includes provisions aimed at addressing presidential conflicts of interest.
