Odaily Planet Daily reports that SBF’s post on X platform claiming the CLARITY Act will be a significant milestone in the history of cryptocurrency development and a major achievement for Trump has drawn a response from U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis. She said SBF is seeking a pardon but did not realize that the CLARITY Act could lead to a sentence far exceeding 25 years. She emphasized that her legislative proposal is completely different from the bill SBF tried to buy from Congress in 2022 and clearly stated, “We neither need nor want SBF’s support.”
