On Wednesday, the 42-year-old warned in an X post about the latest version of the law, which the Finance Committee had only published at the beginning of the week.<\/p>\n<p>It contains several dozen changes compared to previous versions. Some points are serious \u2013 too serious for Armstrong. Until now, he had supported the work on the CLARITY crypto law. On Wednesday, he publicly announced the end of this support.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cAfter reviewing the Finance Committee draft over the last 48 hours, Coinbase unfortunately cannot support the bill in its current form,\u201d Armstrong wrote.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-container brlbs-cmpnt-content-blocker brlbs-cmpnt-with-individual-styles\" data-borlabs-cookie-content-blocker-id=\"x-alias-twitter-content-blocker\" data-borlabs-cookie-content=\"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\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-preset-b brlbs-cmpnt-cb-x\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-thumbnail\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.coinpro.ch\/wp-content\/uploads\/borlabs-cookie\/1\/cb-twitter-main.png')\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-main\">\n<div class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-content\">\n<p class=\"brlbs-cmpnt-cb-description\">You are currently seeing a placeholder content of <strong>X<\/strong>.

In this form, the bill is a gift to banks, he criticizes. According to this, they have successfully tried to influence senators in order to protect their own industry through CLARITY.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe cannot allow banks to influence this law in order to eliminate their competitors. Citizens should receive more money for their reserves. Stablecoins offer a good option for this,\u201d Armstrong explained.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Because savings accounts in the USA only pay out 0.14 percent interest on customer deposits, returns on invested stablecoins are now to be prohibited by means of CLARITY. The tokens allow returns of up to 3.80 percent, Armstrong argues. For him, that&#8217;s a scandal.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cIf that is supposed to be a gift to the banks, then I\u2019d rather stick with GENIUS, which has already been passed,\u201d he summarized, referring to a successfully passed stablecoin law.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Cardano founder <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/6bfYKc-HxUY\">Charles Hoskinson<\/a> also recently criticized CLARITY. Actually the most important crypto law, this could miss its effect. The US House of Representatives already passed its version in July, but the draft never became law due to disputes within the Senate.<\/p>\n<p>The problem: Because of the upcoming midterm elections, the legislation is under pressure. The elections could mess up the balance of power and possibly blow up CLARITY or at least delay it until 2029. The implications for the crypto market would be enormous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The US Senate is putting the CLARITY Act on hold again.
