The CLARITY Act is shaping up to be a watershed moment for crypto regulation. Come Q1 2026, the entire industry will be watching. This isn't just another policy update—it's the regulatory reset everyone's been waiting for.
For years, hedge funds, banks, and major institutions have stayed on the sidelines, held back by enforcement-driven uncertainty. The current patchwork approach created too much friction. But once this legislation clears, everything shifts. Clearer rules mean clearer risk profiles. And that's the green light these players need to enter the space at scale.
What comes next? Capital flooding in. Institutions don't move without clarity, and this act finally delivers it.

See history in Q1 next year, but will big institutions really come? I'm still a bit holding on.

It's the same old story... If institutions really come in, do retail investors still have a chance?

ngl the "institutional capital flood" narrative feels kinda performative... like we're treating regulatory clarity as some aesthetic object instead of interrogating what it actually *means* for creative sovereignty in web3. the tokenomics of compliance, if you will.

Can Q1 next year really break the deadlock? This time, it just feels like another round of hype and gimmicks.

Wow, is it really happening this time? Q1 2026 institutional army enters the market, will retail investors still be able to make profits then?

Really? We still have to wait until Q1 2026? I'm afraid there will be new surprises by then.

I find it hard to believe... Can it really go smoothly? It feels like American politicians have a new idea every day.
