Wall Street is split on the Clarity Act and Lummis is calling out the "Big Bank Lobby" for claiming otherwise. BlackRock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Goldman Sachs, and SoFi have all publicly endorsed the bill. BlackRock's Samara Cohen called it "an important step toward establishing a regulatory framework that puts investors first." Goldman CEO David Solomon said he's "very supportive of moving the CLARITY Act forward" despite it not being "perfect." The divide is telling. Asset managers who've launched crypto products want regulation. JPMorgan and the traditional banking lobby want tighter stablecoin yield restrictions that critics say would protect bank deposit monopolies at the expense of innovation. Meanwhile the Senate clock is ticking. Thune shifted floor time to judicial nominations and Russia sanctions, leaving only a handful of legislative days before the August 8 recess. Wall Street firms that stand to profit from crypto adoption support the bill, while banks threatened by stablecoin competition lobby to water it down. Both sides frame it as "protecting consumers."
