Polymarket Traders Boost Clarity Act Chances Following Reports of Trump Backing Stalled Ethics Clause
Table of Contents

The odds of the Clarity Act being signed into law in 2026 jumped today to 43% on Polymarket, up from the 32% recorded last Friday, which was its lowest level since the market began operating in January.

The jump was preceded by reports that President Donald Trump had reportedly agreed to move forward with an ethics clause that had been holding up negotiations on the Clarity Act, also known as the crypto asset market structure bill.

According to a source close to the process, a preliminary agreement was reached with Trump on the ethics point, although Democrats had not yet seen the text of the bill and no version had been officially published. The White House and the offices of the senators involved did not confirm the details, though the same source indicated that a draft could be released at any moment.

The pending dispute in the Clarity Act revolves around the extent to which officials and political figures can financially benefit from cryptocurrencies while holding public office, a particularly sensitive issue given Trump’s ties to his own memecoins and his family’s involvement in World Liberty Financial.

The matter was discussed on July 16 at a meeting between Trump, Republican senators Bernie Moreno and Cynthia Lummis, and White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt. The Senate has until early August to vote on the Clarity Act.
