The long road toward full compliance for the cryptocurrency industry and its formal integration into the U.S. financial system has finally reached a breakthrough. The CLARITY Act, which has been closely watched by the crypto community, had previously stalled due to concerns from the banking sector that "stablecoin yields" would lead to deposit outflows. Now, this tug-of-war appears to be coming to an end. Republican Senator Thom Tillis revealed to the media on Wednesday that the revised version of the bill has "addressed most of the banking industry's concerns" regarding the "interest-bearing deposits" that banking lobbyists have been fiercely defending. According to Fox Business, Thom Tillis stated: "I will urge the committee chair to move forward with the markup as soon as possible." If successfully scheduled, the Senate Banking Committee could hold a "markup hearing" as early as mid-May, giving lawmakers the opportunity to propose amendments. Thom Tillis emphasized that he intends to allow stakeholders to review the compromise draft on stablecoin yields a few days before the hearing and encourages bankers to continue negotiations on other unresolved issues. "Trump Clause" and DeFi Legal Status as Potential Variables Despite the easing of the stablecoin yield controversy, other issues remain to be resolved: Conflict of Interest Clause: Democrats argue that government officials (including President Trump and his family) should be prohibited from holding personal business interests in the cryptocurrency industry. It is reported that Thom Tillis also supports including such ethical standards, but this issue does not fall within the scope of the Banking Committee's review. Legal Status of DeFi: Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley insists that legal protection clauses for DeFi developers should be reviewed by the Judiciary Committee. This could trigger a power struggle between committees, further delaying progress. However, the time pressure is immense. The Senate has only about 11 weeks of legislative time left before the November midterm elections. If there are any further delays, the bill may miss the golden window for passage this year. It is worth noting that the House of Representatives passed its own version of the CLARITY Act last year. Even if the final Senate version passes, it will still need to be sent back to the House for another vote. Although the House and Senate have been at odds on some issues recently (such as the Department of Homeland Security budget), cryptocurrency industry lobbyists remain optimistic that the House will ultimately accept the Senate's compromise version.
