The cryptocurrency industry is approaching a significant date in the U.S., with Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong saying the Clarity Act is ready for a Senate vote.
His comments come just days before September 15, when senators are expected to vote on whether to advance the legislation, making his assessment particularly relevant to the market and the broader digital asset industry.
In a tweet, Altcoin Daily posted footage from Armstrong’s appearance on CNBC, where the Coinbase CEO discussed the Clarity Act and the prospects for regulatory clarity in the United States. The interview aired Thursday, September 10, 2026, during CNBC’s Squawk Box Asia, live from Singapore.
Armstrong said he believes the Clarity Act is ready for a “yes vote” and claimed that the senators he has spoken with are supportive of the legislation. He also emphasized the bipartisan work that went into the bill, saying that there had been hundreds of pages of input from both sides.
According to Armstrong, several groups important to the digital asset industry have also moved behind the legislation.
"I think the Clarity Act is ready to get a YES vote!"
"Frankly, if it doesn't pass, it's (also) going to be a good outcome."
"We're going to get regulatory clarity one way or another, (either) on the 15th or a day or two after."

Armstrong said law enforcement groups, many banks, and crypto companies are now behind the Clarity Act. He described the bill as an effort to establish a clear regulatory framework that would protect American consumers while allowing the United States to remain competitive in blockchain and digital asset development.
The Coinbase CEO also noted that his company had previously raised concerns about the legislation. He said the issues Coinbase considered essential have now been resolved.
Armstrong presented this as a reason for his current support, saying Coinbase had been willing to identify problems with earlier versions of the bill but now feels comfortable supporting its current form.
He also linked the legislation to the wider global development of blockchain technology, saying other G20 countries and nations around the world are continuing to build within the sector.
Armstrong then turned to the upcoming Senate vote, saying the industry will know on September 15 whether the bill can secure the 60 votes required to advance.
Importantly, one commenter, Naval Orphan, cautioned that September 15 should not necessarily be described as the final vote on the Clarity Act. He said the Senate is expected to consider whether to advance H.R. 3633, after which the legislation could still face debate, amendments, final passage and possible House action.

Armstrong also offered an alternative outcome if the legislation does not advance. He said the SEC and CFTC have indicated that they are prepared to publish rulemaking, meaning he expects regulatory clarity to come either through legislation or agency action.
Other reactions to the video reflected differing expectations. Raid Arena suggested that clearer rules could have a significant effect after years of regulatory uncertainty, while Fabian.x expressed opposition to the bill and said Democrats remain prepared to resist its passage.
For Armstrong, however, the central message remained consistent. Whether through the Clarity Act or regulatory action from the SEC and CFTC, he expects the United States to move closer to greater cryptocurrency regulatory clarity around September 15 or shortly afterward.
