Trump backs tougher ethics rules in bid to advance Clarity Act

President Donald Trump has agreed to broader conflict-of-interest rules and additional state-level enforcement powers as part of an effort to secure Senate support for the Clarity Act, according to an Associated Press report cited by CoinDesk. The concessions are aimed at winning key votes needed to move the cryptocurrency legislation forward. The agreement concerns ethics requirements and the role of states in enforcing provisions of the bill. The report does not indicate that the Clarity Act has passed, nor does it provide further details on the timing or precise scope of the proposed changes. The development is relevant to crypto markets because the legislation remains under consideration in the Senate, with related assets including Ethereum (ETH), Ethena (ENA), Official Trump (TRUMP), and Billions Network (BILL).
