Two days after the US Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act, federal regulators opened two narrower routes for crypto-linked market access under existing law.The Securities and Exchange Commission created a five-year path for permissioned venues to trade tokenized US stocks through automated market makers. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission broadened staff no-action relief so qualifying software providers can connect users to regulated derivatives markets without registering as introducing brokers for the covered activity.The actions can support real products, but they do not recreate market-structure legislation. The SEC route is capped and conditional. The CFTC route still relies on registered…

Pi Network [PI] has fallen below the $1 billion market cap after the token’s latest losses on the price chart. PI crypto is down 13.4% over the past week. Risk-on market conditions might become too risky for most investors very soon, as the rate hike news showed. It could be the beginning of a phase of tightening liquidity, which threatens crypto markets’ bullish momentum in recent weeks. Bitcoin [BTC] suffered a sell-off from $82k to $75k in recent days, and has begun to push higher once again after the FOMC rate decision. On the other hand, PI crypto continued to…

After the $320 million hack, which shook the crypto community, Liquid Network has largely returned to normal operations. However, one of the main functions, which involved converting LBTC back into Bitcoin [BTC] through peg-outs, is still suspended. But the good news here is that block production and regular transactions have been running normally since 10th September. This recovery has given users the second chance to move LBTC across the network. With the step-by-step recovery process, users can now use exchanges, wallets, and other ecosystem services for their liquid-related functions. However, the caution bubble still remains, as not all the Bitcoin…

Pons [PONS] rose 13% over the past day as bullish sentiment and protocol-backed buying strengthened demand. The protocol generated roughly $19.64 million in Earnings so far in September. It then channeled $13.82 million into its buyback program. Buybacks absorb tokens from the market, potentially tightening available supply and supporting prices when demand rises. Optimism surrounding crypto assets, particularly the Robinhood Chain, also gave PONS another tailwind. Meanwhile, protocol activity continued to improve. Fees rose from $2.49 million on the 16th of September to $2.95 million at press time. Source: DeFiLlama Can PONS derivatives sustain the rally? Both Spot and Perpetual…

Seven Democratic senators said Sept. 16 that CLARITY’s failed Senate vote was not the end. The crypto market-structure bill fell short 49-50 the previous day on a procedural motion that needed 60 votes to advance.Getting from that statement to a law now depends on a compressed legislative calendar, still-unresolved policy disputes, and a House of Representatives that would need to accept whatever the Senate eventually produces.Even if all seven signatories switched from “No” to “Yes,” the count would move from 49 to 56, four short of 60. Adding North Carolina Republican Thom Tillis, whose “no” vote was a procedural move…

The integration of AI into crypto has been a defining theme of the 2026 cycle. Ripple looks set to capitalize on this momentum. So far, several Layer 1 networks have been integrating AI agent models on their blockchain to facilitate smoother transactions. In this vein, it seems that Ripple is now looking to position XRPL to tap into this growing AI-agent economy. In a recent update, Ripple has expanded its XRPL developer kit to support Stripe and Tempo’s Machine Payments Protocol. This feature allows AI agents to pay for data, computing, and other services. Additionally, it supports the Open Wallet…

Arbitrum [ARB] surged 12.18% in 24 hours, as growing institutional interest and expanding network revenues reinforced the rally’s foundation. Besides the rally, Standard Chartered recently initiated ARB coverage and set a $10 price target for 2030.  Reportedly, the bank cited Arbitrum’s enterprise-grade infrastructure as a key driver behind its longer-term price outlook.  Elsewhere, Robinhood Chain activity also strengthened the network’s revenue profile significantly. Arbitrum’s monthly revenue run-rate surged to roughly $5 million, reflecting a fivefold increase since the July period.  The rally therefore aligned with the improving network economics rather than relying exclusively on the speculative market demand. Additionally, ARB’s…

The Senate gave DeFi a policy setback on Sept. 15. Then Aave founder Stani Kulechov used it to frame a new product challenge. Aave is a decentralized-finance lending protocol surrounded by consumer and institutional products built by Aave Labs.At 2:19 p.m. Eastern time, senators rejected cloture on the motion to proceed to H.R. 3633, the CLARITY Act, a federal digital-asset market-structure bill, by 49-50. The procedural vote required three-fifths, so the result blocked the bill’s immediate route to floor consideration. It was not a final-passage vote and did not erase the authority regulators already have. Related ReadingBitcoin drops below $76,000…
