Senate Republicans are reportedly circulating a revised CLARITY Act text ahead of the Sept. 15 cloture vote. The proposal would shift DeFi compliance obligations toward whoever is deemed to control a DeFi system.
Key disputes remain unresolved, including ethics rules targeting the president. That makes the controller standard central to how the legislation would assign compliance responsibility across DeFi.
The Sept. 15 cloture vote is the next legislative test for the proposal.
