A significant shift is underway in US crypto policy. The White House's crypto initiatives are accelerating the Clarity Act through January markup—a watershed moment that signals the end of regulation-by-enforcement approaches that have long shadowed the industry.

What does this mean for the market? The regulatory clarity opens critical pathways for institutional capital. When institutions can operate with defined rules rather than legal uncertainty, capital flows shift dramatically. Think about the implications: trillions in traditional finance are watching the regulatory landscape. SOL, SUI, and ONDO are positioned at the intersection of this clarity and institutional readiness.

The mechanisms are straightforward. Clearer rules reduce compliance risk, lower entry barriers for fund managers, and unlock deployment strategies that were previously too risky. This isn't speculation—it's how institutional capital actually moves when regulatory uncertainty dissolves.

As we head into 2026, this regulatory framework matters more than hype cycles. Whether this acceleration continues depends on sustaining momentum through markup and beyond, but the direction is clear: the era of regulatory ambiguity is becoming the era of defined parameters.

SUI0.69%

Nah seriously, if the clarity act passes, we should see real institutional entry. Wait... can it really last until 2026 this time? Feels like every time we say that, nothing happens. SOL and SUI have already been overhyped; now it's probably the bagholders stepping in. When institutional capital comes in, it's definitely different, but the premise is that policies don't flip again... I'm a bit worried. This time is different from usual; if the markup can really push forward, that's a good sign. Feels like ONDO has the best chance, after all, the track itself is friendly to compliance. Don't be too optimistic; the wind direction in Washington can change at any time, don't get caught off guard. This wave does seem promising, but it also depends on how well the follow-up execution goes. If institutions really come in, retail investors' days might get even tougher, uh... It's the same old story; I've heard the words clarity and compliance too many times. Let's wait until 2026 to see, it's too early to say anything now.

ngl this time the clarity act really passes, institutional funds will definitely enter the market... SOL and SUI should have already risen --- The US attitude shift this time is too sudden, feels like it was forced? Or do they really want to support crypto --- It sounds good, but nothing counts before the January markup... let's wait until it actually lands --- When institutions come in, they might get cut, retail investors need to be careful --- This is what we truly need... clarity rather than all kinds of FUD --- Are trillions watching? Why do I still see traditional finance resisting... --- SOL reaching $200 is considered a success, but it's too early to say these things now --- Clear regulation = big institutions finish accumulating? Those who understand, understand...

It's 2026 already and you're still talking about the Clarity Act. The institutional funds have long since entered the market; it's just you all still talking on paper. Honestly, SOL has risen so much that the policy expectations should have been fully digested by now. The current mindset is just to buy in and take over the position. Clear regulatory oversight is useless; the key is who can survive until next year. Institutional entry? I think it's just retail investors passing the baton. This time really is different, but don't expect to get rich overnight. Long-term stability is the way to go. Wait, the question is, can the bill really pass on time... I've never heard of ONDO. Has anyone looked into it in depth? Seriously, regulatory clarity = positive news lock-in. The next rally won't be as exaggerated.

Finally, someone dares to take a bite of this cake. Will SOL and SUI take off? --- Does passing the clearaty act really change anything, or is it just another excuse to cut the leeks? --- On the eve of institutional entry, I was still debating whether to buy the dip. Laughing to death. --- The clearer the rules, the more intense the competition. Is there still a way out for retail investors... --- Trillions watching? Come on, when the market truly enters, retail investors will have already been washed out. Same old tricks. --- 2026 is the key. It's too early to say anything now. Just wait and see.
