This could then force projects to fight their way out of that label through a process he says the SEC could easily weaponize. In the same breath, he suggested XRP may be among the assets that get grandfathered into safer treatment under the bill\u2019s structure<\/p>\n<h2>Hoskinson Says XRP Gets A Pass<\/h2>\n<p>The Clarity Act is a proposed piece of US legislation <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/trump-presses-congress-crypto-market-structure-bill\/\">designed to create<\/a> a regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies and digital assets. This bill has been advancing with US lawmakers and there are claims that it <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/clarity-act-on-track-for-april-passage-senator-says\/\">may be passed anytime in April. <\/a>In a most recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/live\/MwgeenxXVgM?si=CF3IokFJt9bFxFN4\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">livestream on YouTube, <\/a>the Cardano co-founder interpreted the CLARITY Act as a line between legacy networks and future launches.<\/p>\n<p>Interestingly, Hoskinson noted the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act could end up sparing established tokens like XRP and maybe Cardano from being treated as securities, essentially rolling XRP into a grandfather status and placing it among the networks most likely to benefit from the bill\u2019s structure.<\/p>\n<p>However, the same bill would leave decentralized finance with no real protections or path forward. He said \u201cthere\u2019s nothing in this for Defi; nothing,\u201d then pointed to Uniswap and prediction markets as examples of what he believes the legislation ignores.<\/p>\n<p>He also used the stablecoin yield fight as proof that important parts of crypto\u2019s products still don\u2019t have a seat at the table. In his words, even Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong \u201ccan\u2019t even get his yield-bearing stablecoins.\u201d This is related to <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/coinbase-ceo-win-win-outcome-crypto-structure-bill\/\">stablecoin yield regulations<\/a> included in the Act.<\/p>\n<h2>Totally Against The Clarity Act<\/h2>\n<p>The comments in this livestream did not come out of nowhere. Hoskinson has been publicly negative on the CLARITY Act for the past few weeks, calling it a bill that looks like progress on paper but leaves loopholes for regulators to keep projects trapped under securities treatment.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The friction has also spilled into a high-profile industry divide because Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse <a href=\"https:\/\/bitcoinist.com\/ripple-ceo-sends-strong-message\/\">has taken the opposite posture <\/a>in public comments, pushing the idea that the sector should accept a workable framework and then keep improving it through amendments.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Notably, Garlinghouse\u2019s comments can be seen as confident the bill can pass on a fast timeline, even as leaders like Hoskinson call it flawed. Another industry name who has expressed concern is Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbtc.com\/news\/coinbase-ceo-claims-big-banks-are-aiming-to-kill-competition-with-latest-crypto-market-bill-draft\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">who noted that <\/a>the bill is giving way for banks to come in and get to do regulatory capture to ban their competition.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tradingview.com\/x\/rB1NIeKH\/\" alt=\"XRP price chart from Tradingview.com (Cardano founder)\" width=\"3286\" height=\"1878\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson says the Digital Asset Market CLARITY Act could end up giving established tokens like XRP a cleaner regulatory lane, although the bill would set a damaging default rule for the next generation of US-based crypto projects.
