Why banks should stop worrying and learn to love the Clarity Act

Özet: Kripto piyasasında önemli gelişmeler yaşanıyor.

Senate could take a crucial step toward setting the rules of the road for the digital economy by taking up the Clarity Act.

Clarity would create a federal framework for cryptoassets and clarify oversight of exchanges, brokers, issuers, and other intermediaries.

The significance of the bill extends well beyond crypto.

Done properly, it could help lay the foundation for a more innovative, inclusive, and competitive American financial system.

That prospect has alarmed segments of the banking industry.

For months, the American Bankers Association and other banking groups warned that Clarity could give crypto companies an unfair competitive edge over banks by allowing them to offer stablecoin users rewards that function like interest on deposits.

Bankers argue that money will migrate from bank accounts into stablecoins and drain the deposits banks use to finance mortgages, farms, and small businesses.

It is a dramatic story: crypto flourishes, community banks wither, and Main Street starves for credit.
