The SEC and the CFTC’s Market Participants Division both acted on Sept 17, creating conditional pathways for new technology to connect with regulated US markets. Two days earlier, the CLARITY Act failed to advance in the Senate. The 49-50 cloture vote fell short of the 60 votes required. These actions do not replace legislation, but address specific areas while broader rules remain stalled. The SEC issued its “Innovation Exemption,” a five-year conditional order for qualifying Tokenized Securities Venues, or TSVs. It allows tokenized NMS stocks to trade through permissioned AMMs and liquidity pools without TSVs being treated as exchanges. It also grants conditional dealer relief to certain liquidity providers. Key conditions: • Tokens must provide the same rights as equivalent traditional shares • For third-party tokenization, issuers must receive notice and a chance to object • TSV smart contracts must be public, auditable and deployed on public, permissionless ledgers • Synthetic products offering only price exposure are excluded • Eligible symbols and trading volumes are capped The SEC is also seeking public comment. Separately, CFTC Staff Letter 26-25 extends a no-action position to qualifying passive software providers. Subject to its conditions, staff would not recommend enforcement solely for failure to register as an introducing broker, or associated person, when software passively connects users to registered derivatives markets. This is not a blanket exemption. Providers cannot control user assets, solicit or recommend trades, or exercise discretion over orders. The position lasts until relevant CFTC rules or guidance take effect. Unlike the GENIUS Act, which became federal law in July 2025, neither action is a statute. Temporary relief can open lanes faster than Congress, but future leadership can revise them. Will these pathways drive adoption of tokenized equities and regulated derivatives access, or will users wait for permanent legislation? #SECCFTCOnchainRules

The Fed just ended three years of stillness. First hike since July 2023. The FOMC voted 12-0 to raise the federal funds rate by 25bps, bringing the target range to 3.75%-4.00%. Chair Warsh said inflation is "too high and has been for too long." The market had largely priced it in, with hike odds near 93% by decision day after hot August inflation data helped flip expectations. But the hike itself is not the story. The dot plot is. The new median dot implies one more 25bps hike before year-end, putting December firmly in play. The updated projections: · PCE inflation is now seen at 3.7% for end-2026, up from 3.6% in June · Core PCE rose to 3.4%, and the Fed does not expect inflation back at 2% until 2029 · Unemployment was revised down to 4.1%, while 2026 GDP growth moved up to 2.3% · The longer-run fed funds rate projection rose to 3.2%, keeping higher-for-longer in the frame Behind the inflation problem is an energy shock tied to the Iran conflict, with oil back above $100 and diesel prices elevated. The White House wants lower rates. The Fed delivered the opposite. The 10-year Treasury yield briefly crossed 5% before the decision, then pulled back toward 4.96%. In H1 2026, US spot BTC ETFs saw about $5.4B in net outflows as BTC fell from the mid-$90K area in January to the low-$60K area in May. The CLARITY Act also failed its Senate cloture vote 49-50 one day before the Fed, pulling a key regulatory catalyst off the table. Bitcoin briefly popped after the announcement, then gave the move back. Nobody heard a Fed that thinks the job is finished. Warsh also avoided committing to a fixed path, keeping the next move data-dependent. The Q4 setup: rates higher, oil elevated, yields near 5%, ETF demand fragile and regulatory progress stalled. That is not an easy soft-landing setup. Which matters more for BTC into Q4: the dot plot, ETF flows, or regulatory uncertainty? #FedFirst25BpsHikeSince23
