What XRP Expects As Clarity Act Is Officially Added to the Senate Legislative Calendar

Crypto researcher SMQKE (@SMQKEDQG) shared an update that XRP holders have been waiting on. The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 (H.R.3633) now sits on the Senate Legislative Calendar under General Orders, Calendar No. 423, as of June 1, 2026.
SMQKE’s post was direct: “The Clarity Act has officially been added to the Senate Legislative Calendar.” The bill has already passed the House. One step remains before it reaches the President’s desk: the Senate must vote, and the XRP army is waiting for a date.
Where the Bill Stands
H.R.3633 was introduced in 2025 and moved through the House Financial Services and Agriculture Committees before clearing the full House. On May 14, 2026, the Senate Banking Committee advanced it in a 15-9 bipartisan vote. Now it awaits a full Senate floor vote.
The bill needs 60 votes to clear the filibuster threshold. That means at least 7 Senate Democrats must cross over. Lawmakers face pressure to move before the August recess, as time on the legislative calendar is limited.
What Does This Mean for XRP?
The SEC sued Ripple in December 2020, creating years of regulatory uncertainty that kept institutional money on the sidelines. A 2023 court ruling cleared secondary-market XRP transactions from securities classification. Then, in March 2026, the SEC and CFTC jointly classified XRP as a digital commodity alongside Bitcoin, Ether, Solana, and other select digital assets.
While XRP has full legal clarity, the problem is that both of those determinations can be reversed. A new administration or a policy shift at either agency could change XRP’s status overnight. The CLARITY Act fixes that, locking XRP’s commodity classification into permanent federal law.
That matters for institutional adoption. Large allocators require legislative certainty, not court rulings or agency guidance, before building products around an asset. XRP has already received significant institutional attention, and many experts believe the CLARITY Act could accelerate this adoption.
The Case for XRP Is Building
There is a second catalyst running in parallel. On May 19, President Trump signed an executive order directing the Federal Reserve to review crypto firms’ access to its payment infrastructure. Ripple is among the firms named. A Federal Reserve master account would let Ripple settle transactions directly through Fedwire and FedNow.
If both the Clarity Act passes and Ripple secures that account, analysts project massive growth for XRP. The bill is now on the calendar. Senate leadership must still announce the floor debate and voting dates. All eyes are on Washington to see when that happens.
