Trump sides with crypto firms in trillion-dollar battle with banks over stablecoin yield
CNBC
The dispute centers on whether crypto firms like Coinbase can offer yields on stablecoins, which banks warn will siphon trillions of dollars from the industry.
President Donald Trump has thrown his support behind crypto firms in their high-stakes battle with U.S. banks over whether they can offer interest-like returns on stablecoins.
Trump, in a social media post late Tuesday, ratcheted up pressure on banks to relent on the stablecoin yield issue.
That's the key point of contention holding up passage in Congress of the Clarity Act, which is a companion bill to the Genius Act approved last year, setting up a framework for regulated stablecoins.
