- Jamie Dimon warned that the CLARITY Act could collapse if banks reject yield‑bearing stablecoin rewards.
- Brian Armstrong was rebuked for pushing deposit‑like stablecoin rewards that mimic bank interest.
- Banks and crypto firms are locked in a dispute over whether stablecoin issuers may offer such rewards under the CLARITY Act.
