XRP account’s unverified CLARITY Act claim faces scrutiny before September 15 vote

  • JackTheRippler claimed the Senate had already approved the CLARITY Act privately.
  • The video showed a 68-30 vote while incorrectly labeling the measure H.R. 3191.
  • The Senate scheduled a September 15 cloture vote after the recess.

An unverified claim from XRP-focused account JackTheRippler says the U.S. Senate has already approved the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act behind closed doors and will formally pass it on September 15. The August 27 post, published by @RippleXrpie, relies on an AI-generated video showing a mock Senate vote of 68-30 and labeling the measure H.R. 3191. The actual legislation is H.R. 3633, while H.R. 3191 concerns a different bill. The CLARITY Act would define digital-asset oversight between the SEC (U.S. securities regulator) and CFTC (U.S. derivatives regulator). It passed the House in 2025 and advanced through the Senate Banking Committee in May 2026. Senate Majority Leader John Thune began the cloture process before the chamber’s recess, setting a September 15 procedural vote that requires 60 votes. Approval would open a 30-hour period before a final vote requiring a simple majority of 50, with the Vice President able to break a tie. Senator Tim Scott has expressed confidence the measure will become law, while Democrat Senator Ruben Gallego is among the two Democrats who voted it out of committee and could be a swing vote. If the bill fails to advance, CFTC Chair Michael Selig has said the commission will use existing authority to develop a digital-asset framework without further Congressional action. Reactions to the post have ranged from speculation about investor positioning to calls for confirmation through Congressional records or government statements. The September 15 cloture vote remains the key near-term test of whether Republican leaders have enough bipartisan support to advance the bill.
