Prediction market odds on the CLARITY Act passing before twenty-twenty-seven just dropped from seventy-five percent to fifty percent in a single week. That's not noise.
Even clearing the yield fight doesn't guarantee passage. The Banking Committee markup cleared on May fourteenth.
Here's a layer that doesn't get enough attention. Even if the CLARITY Act passes, the regulatory clarity it provides may not translate into the retail adoption people are expecting.
While the legislative picture deteriorates, the XRPL technical foundation keeps moving forward. The XRP Ledger Foundation confirmed version three-point-two-point-zero is in active development, focused on protocol resilience rather than new features.
On the DeFi side, developers filed a draft amendment to add concentrated liquidity and StableSwap curve types to the XRPL automated market maker. The capital efficiency gap versus Ethereum and Solana has been a genuine competitive weakness.
The real watchpoints from here are straightforward. Track whether Senate floor scheduling opens before August.
