A major crypto trading platform signals it may reconsider support for the CLARITY Act unless the legislation stays focused on disclosure rules. The sticking point? The bill's potential restrictions on stablecoin rewards offered to users. According to reporting, the platform made clear that expanding the law's scope beyond transparency requirements into reward mechanisms would trigger a policy reversal. This move highlights the ongoing tension between regulators pushing for stablecoin guardrails and exchanges defending user-centric features as the U.S. legislative framework for digital assets continues to take shape.

Ha, the exchanges are threatening again, classic routine... Promised to support the CLARITY Act, but as soon as rewards are involved, they turn hostile. Clever play. --- It's another card in the hand. Regulators want to control rewards, exchanges are unhappy, and stablecoins have never been peaceful. --- So basically, it's about money. When user rewards are cut, exchanges earn less. No wonder they’re getting anxious. --- If this wave of legislation really passes restrictions, how many exchanges will have to change their tune... I’m just waiting to see the show. --- The CLARITY Act was originally meant to bring transparency, but now it’s become a tug-of-war between exchanges and regulators. The stablecoin space is too complicated. --- It’s always the same. When supporting regulation, they’re very active; when it actually harms their interests, they turn against it... You should be used to it. --- It seems that stablecoins will eventually need regulation. Exchanges are struggling now, but it’s of no use.

lmao so the exchange is basically saying "we'll support your regulation... but only if it doesn't touch our rewards program" 🚩 classic move. tbh this whole CLARITY thing screams regulatory theater to me ngl

lmao they're literally just gonna flip their stance the moment rewards get touched... classic playbook. actually if you read the contract language they snuck in there, it was always about keeping yield faucets open no matter what. predictably dumping support on schedule when the regulatory pressure hits the stablecoin yields.
