The Wyoming senator says the stalled market structure bill would have handed regulators sharper tools against illicit finance, including at Binance Senator Cynthia Lummis wants critics to know what they voted down. On October 30, 2026, the Wyoming Republican said the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act would classify Binance as a “covered person” because the exchange provides digital asset services. The timing is awkward. The bill failed to advance in the Senate after a close procedural vote on September 15, 2026. So Lummis is now making the case for legislation that is, for the moment, parked on the shoulder.
