The U.S. Senate is set to hold a key procedural vote on the CLARITY Act on September 15, according to coverage from Bitcoin News on X. The cloture motion would require 60 votes to advance the bill to formal Senate consideration, and would not constitute final passage.

The CLARITY Act aims to establish a comprehensive federal regulatory framework for digital asset markets. CFTC Chairman Michael Selig said the agency can use its existing authority to advance limited crypto regulation, but that authority cannot replace the broader framework now being reviewed in Congress.

HyperliquidNews reported on X that the Outcomes platform generated more than $1 million in trading volume within a 24-hour period, marking its first such level since July 30.

A headteacher in Nepal evacuated about 900 pupils from Tribhuvan Trishuli Secondary School in Nuwakot roughly 10 minutes before floodwaters reached the area, after receiving four warning calls at 09:10 local time (03:25 GMT).

Rajendra Dawadi said he moved the students to higher ground and ordered buses carrying pupils to turn back as the disaster swept through parts of Nepal. The floods have claimed at least 794 lives and left about 2,426 people missing.

The school building was buried under mud and debris, and a hostel located about 100 meters from the river was engulfed as the waters arrived.

Pupil Yunisha Amatya, 16, said she and her friends escaped by seconds after teachers instructed students to head home. She recalled climbing uphill via a narrow ladder behind the school as the local bazaar was swept away, and noted that many students and teachers were stranded for two nights before rescue teams reached them.

Dawadi and Yunisha, who both live across the river from the school, were later airlifted back to their home village.

He added that autonomous vehicles could still offer substantial safety benefits if companies increase transparency and governments prepare for emerging risks.
