🚨🚨🚨EXPOSED: BANKS HOLDING THE CLARITY ACT HOSTAGE TO PROTECT THEIR NEAR 0% INTREST SCAM!
Banks lend out your deposits instantly for 30-year mortgages, car loans, etc. Under fractional reserve banking. They earn decent yields from the Fed funds rate but pay you basically 0% interest.
The CLARITY Act (Digital Asset Market Clarity Act) is stalled in the Senate largely because banks are fighting hard against provisions that could let crypto platforms offer yield/rewards on stablecoins (like USDC or similar on exchanges).
Why? It creates a real alternative: Move your cash to stablecoins and earn meaningful yield instead of near-zero in banks. If enough people do that, it triggers massive deposit flight from traditional banks; threatening their lending model and potentially stability.
Banks see this as an existential threat (they call it unfair competition or systemic risk), so they're pushing to ban or severely limit those yields/rewards in the bill. That's the core fight holding it up; even Trump has called out banks for "holding it hostage."
If the Act passes without those restrictions (or with pro-crypto yield allowed), stablecoins could pull serious money out of banks. Few mainstream voices say it outright, but that's the real fear. Now you know why....
