Overview

As Congress moves the CLARITY Act toward a Thursday markup, stablecoin “rewards” language is emerging as a key fault line. Multiple reports frame Coinbase as warning it could reconsider or withdraw support if the bill restricts stablecoin rewards beyond disclosure requirements, with some coverage describing the dispute as straining bipartisan momentum around the broader market-structure package.
