📄Full Article· Automatically extracted by trafilatura2173 words

The National Cryptocurrency Association (NCA) says 67 million Americans now own cryptocurrency. The trade group cast the figure as proof that federal rules should clear Congress this year. The May 20 push followed the Senate Banking Committee’s 15-9 vote on May 14. That vote advanced the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 toward a full Senate floor test. Adoption Hits One in Four US Adults The NCA’s 2026 State of Crypto Holders Report polled 10,000 US holders with The Harris Poll. It recorded 12 million new owners, lifting the total to roughly one in four adults. California leads with 9.5 million holders. Texas follows at 5.94 million, then Florida at 4.71 million and New York at 4.66 million. Every state and congressional district registers significant numbers, according to the NCA’s interactive map. CLARITY Act Nears Senate Floor Vote The bill splits oversight between two federal regulators. Digital commodities go to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. Securities-like tokens stay with the Securities and Exchange Commission. The House passed an earlier version 294-134 in July 2025. Democratic Senators Ruben Gallego of Arizona and Angela Alsobrooks of Maryland crossed over last week. Every Republican on the panel voted yes, delivering the bipartisan committee vote. The bill now needs 60 floor votes to clear a filibuster. “The Clarity Act isn’t about protecting an industry. It’s about protecting everyday Americans who deserve clear rules when they participate in the multi-trillion dollar crypto economy. 67 million Americans already hold crypto. The data is in. It’s time,” Ripple CLO and NCA President Stuart Alderoty pressed the case in a post.

Texas and Florida sit with California and New York at the top of the table. That spread gives the cohort reach into competitive House districts in 2026. President Donald Trump’s strategic Bitcoin (BTC) reserve order has already aligned one party with the constituency. Whether the floor vote tracks the committee’s bipartisan trajectory will test the data.
