The post Circle Falls 20% After CLARITY Act Yield Ban Draft appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

Coinbase also fell around 10 percent as investors reacted to concerns over future earnings tied to stablecoin products. Although activity-based rewards would still be allowed, markets fear the move could reduce USDC’s appeal. Some investors remain optimistic as institutional buying continues during the decline.
