Chris Perkins spoke to Cointelegraph journalist Ciaran Lyons on Chain Reaction on Friday. Source: Cointelegraph While Perkins said he’s not worried about the industry’s long-term outlook if the CLARITY Act doesn’t pass, he added that if it does become law, it would make it much harder for future administrations to roll back the regulatory clarity. “What you’ve done is you’ve essentially enshrined policy for a very long time, as hard as it is to pass a law, it is even harder to unwind a law,” Perkins said. “There is a reason why we say it takes an act of Congress to do something,” he added. Many industry participants have raised expectations that the CLARITY Act could pass soon after the publication of new stablecoin yield provisions on Friday.
