The CLARITY Act, a major crypto regulatory bill, hit a new roadblock this week as Senate Democrats renewed their objections. A minority staff analysis from the Senate Banking Committee argues the legislation preserves pathways for President Donald Trump to profit from his crypto ventures. Financial disclosures show Trump earned roughly $1.4 billion from crypto in 2025, and the analysis says the bill doesn't do enough to prevent conflicts of interest.

Translation: "Akta CLARITY, satu rang undang-undang kawal selia kripto yang utama, menghadapi halangan baharu minggu ini apabila Demokrat Senat memperbaharui bantahan mereka. Analisis kakitangan minoriti daripada Jawatankuasa Perbankan Senat berhujah bahawa perundangan itu mengekalkan laluan untuk Presiden Donald Trump mendapat keuntungan daripada usaha kriptonya. Pendedahan kewangan menunjukkan Trump memperoleh kira-kira $1.4 bilion daripada kripto pada 2025, dan analisis itu mengatakan rang undang-undang itu tidak cukup untuk mengelakkan konflik kepentingan."
We need to ensure "crypto" is translated as "kripto" or "mata wang kripto"? Usually "kripto" is fine. Also "bill" is "rang undang-undang". "roadblock" is "halangan". "renewed" is "memperbaharui". "objections" is "bantahan". "minority staff analysis" - "analisis kakitangan minoriti". "preserves pathways" - "mengekalkan laluan". "profit" - "keuntungan". "ventures" - "usaha" or "perniagaan". "financial disclosures" - "pendedahan kewangan". "roughly" - "kira-kira". "conflicts of interest" - "konflik kepentingan".

Paragraph: "The analysis, circulated among committee members, flags specific provisions that it says would allow Trump to maintain or expand his crypto holdings without meaningful oversight. Democrats on the panel have long been skeptical of the CLARITY Act, but this latest report gives them fresh ammunition. The timing isn't great for the bill's supporters — they were hoping to bring it to a Senate vote before the August recess."
Translation: "Analisis itu, yang diedarkan di kalangan ahli jawatankuasa, menandakan peruntukan khusus yang dikatakan akan membolehkan Trump mengekalkan atau mengembangkan pegangan kriptonya tanpa pengawasan yang bermakna. Demokrat dalam panel itu telah lama ragu-ragu terhadap Akta CLARITY, tetapi laporan terbaru ini memberi mereka peluru baru. Masa tidak sesuai untuk penyokong rang undang-undang itu — mereka berharap untuk membawanya ke undian Senat sebelum cuti Ogos."
We need to be careful with "flags" - "menandakan" or "menyoroti". "maintain or expand" - "mengekalkan atau mengembangkan". "holdings" - "pegangan". "meaningful oversight" - "pengawasan yang bermakna". "skeptical" - "ragu-ragu". "fresh ammunition" - "peluru baru" (figurative). "timing isn't great" - "masa tidak sesuai". "bring it to a Senate vote" - "membawanya ke undian Senat". "August recess" - "cuti Ogos".
Next heading: "Trump's Crypto Earnings
" -> "Pendapatan Kripto Trump
"
Paragraph: "Trump's $1.4 billion in crypto-related income in 2025 came from a mix of NFT royalties, token sales, and investments in decentralized finance projects, according to his financial disclosure. That figure dwarfs his other reported income and has become a central talking point for opponents of the CLARITY Act. They argue the bill's language on disclosure and divestment is too weak to address a president with such a large crypto footprint."
Translation: "Pendapatan berkaitan kripto Trump sebanyak $1.4 bilion pada 2025 datang daripada gabungan royalti NFT, jualan token, dan pelaburan dalam projek kewangan terdesentralisasi, menurut pendedahan kewangannya. Angka itu jauh mengatasi pendapatan lain yang dilaporkan dan telah menjadi titik perbincangan utama bagi penentang Akta CLARITY. Mereka berhujah bahawa bahasa rang undang-undang mengenai pendedahan dan pelupusan terlalu lemah untuk menangani presiden dengan jejak kripto yang begitu besar."
We need to translate "NFT" - it's a proper noun, keep as NFT. "royalties" - "royalti". "token sales" - "jualan token". "decentralized finance" - "kewangan terdesentralisasi" (or "DeFi" but we can spell out). "dwarfs" - "jauh mengatasi" or "mengecilkan" but "mengatasi" is fine. "talking point" - "titik perbincangan". "divestment" - "pelupusan" (or "penjualan aset" but "pelupusan" is fine). "footprint" - "jejak" (figurative).
Last paragraph: "The CLARITY Act already passed the House with bipartisan support, but the Senate path is uncertain. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer hasn't scheduled a floor vote, and the new analysis could push moderate Democrats to withhold support. The bill's sponsors are scrambling to negotiate amendments that might satisfy the critics, but no deal is imminent. If the Senate doesn't act before the recess, the bill could slip into the fall — or die entirely."
Translation: "Akta CLARITY telah pun diluluskan
