Stand With Crypto’s 4 million registered advocates couldn’t get the CLARITY Act through the Senate
Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong said Stand With Crypto has surpassed four million members, meeting a target Coinbase set ahead of the 2026 midterms. The milestone followed the Senate’s 49–50 vote against advancing the CLARITY Act, which fell short of the 60 votes required. The group cites large-scale advocacy, including hundreds of thousands of emails and more than one million calls and emails related to the bill. However, its totals span different dates and geographies, and it has not disclosed how many participants are unique, verified U.S. voters, or politically active. The failed vote underscores that a large supporter network does not by itself demonstrate the bipartisan influence needed to pass legislation. Lawmakers also raised concerns about ethics, safeguards, regulatory capacity, and stablecoin rewards.
