Trump weighs ethics counterproposal to CLARITY Act, Senate seeks 60 votes before August 7
Odaily News - US President Donald Trump is weighing a bipartisan ethics counterproposal to the CLARITY Act, with Senate negotiators needing to finalize crypto conflict-of-interest rules before the August 7 recess. The bill aims to establish a federal regulatory framework for crypto companies by dividing responsibilities between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC).
Republican Senator Thom Tillis and Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego submitted a state attorney general enforcement plan to the White House on July 29. The plan would allow state-level agencies to enforce a ban on federal officials issuing or sponsoring digital tokens, rather than leaving enforcement solely to the Department of Justice.
The US House of Representatives passed its version of the bill on July 17 with 294 votes in favor and 134 against, with more than 70 Democrats voting in support. The Senate has not yet held a floor vote; the bill requires 60 votes to pass, meaning at least 7 Democrats would need to vote in favor if all Republicans support it.

Grok 4.7 will follow in a few weeks, expected to use a 2.1 trillion parameter model. This version will surpass Grok 4.6 in all aspects, with the only shortfall being slightly slower inference speed, though token efficiency will be further improved.

Coming next week, new XRP Ledger version xrpld 3.3.0 to feature five new capabilities
Odaily News - Jazzi Cooper, RippleX Product Lead, stated on X that the next version of XRP Ledger, xrpld 3.3.0, will be released next week, introducing five new features to validators: confidential MPT, batch transactions, delegated permissions, fee sponsorship and reserves, and dynamic MPT. Among these, the batch transactions and delegated permissions amendments were previously withdrawn urgently after security researchers discovered critical vulnerabilities. She noted that XRP Ledger already has the capability to support tokenized assets at scale, and this upgrade will further drive the adoption of these assets in global transfers, trading, collateralization, and settlement scenarios.
