Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure As anticipation builds around the long-awaited digital asset market structure legislation known as the CLARITY Act, negotiations between the crypto industry and the banking sector appear to be resuming this week

White House Considers New Crypto Talks

According to Crypto In America journalist Eleanor Terrett, the White House is weighing the possibility of holding another meeting as soon as Thursday to address one of the most contentious elements of the bill: stablecoin yield

Citing two sources familiar with the discussions, Terrett reported that administration officials are considering convening representatives from both banks and crypto firms for renewed talks. However, she noted that no final decision has been made and plans have yet to be confirmed.

Terrett reported Monday that last Tuesday’s White House gathering — which included senior policy staff from major banks, crypto companies, and trade associations — concluded without an agreement

According to her reporting, banking representatives circulated a one-page document titled “Yield and Interest Prohibition Principles.” The document argued that stablecoins should not offer yield or rewards, drawing a firm line that has become a central sticking point in the broader negotiations.

Despite the setback, Ripple Chief Executive Officer Brad Garlinghouse has publicly expressed confidence that the crypto and banking sectors will ultimately bridge their differences, clearing the way for final approval of the legislation and its signing by President Donald Trump.

Ripple CEO Says ‘Clarity Is Better Than Chaos’

In comments reported Tuesday by The Street, Garlinghouse suggested that once the remaining disputes are resolved, the CLARITY Act could move swiftly toward enactment. He even alluded to a potential timeline, signaling urgency around the process.

Garlinghouse called on the crypto community to rally behind the legislation rather than hold out for a flawless outcome. He argued that progress should not be derailed by disagreements over specific provisions

While acknowledging that the CLARITY Act is not perfect, Garlinghouse maintained that no piece of legislation ever is

Garlinghouse went further, estimating there is an 80% probability that the anticipated crypto market structure bill will be signed into law by the end of April.
