Stablecoin yield ban emerges as flashpoint in new U.S. crypto bill

A new U.S. crypto market structure bill draft has intensified conflict between banks and the crypto industry, with a proposed ban on interest or passive yield payments tied to payment stablecoins emerging as a central battleground. The provision aims to prevent stablecoins from functioning like blockchain-based savings accounts that could draw deposits away from traditional banks, though certain activity-based rewards would still be permitted. Crypto executives argue this eliminates a key retail advantage, while banking groups see it as necessary to protect the traditional system. Despite these restrictions, the bill offers broader protections for the crypto industry, including clearer legal categories for digital assets, registration pathways for firms, and safeguards for self-custody wallets. For retail users, the outcome is mixed: they may gain regulatory clarity and stronger consumer protections but likely lose easy access to passive yield from stablecoin holdings.
