Los bancos financian anuncios de ataques criptográficos en todo Washington mientras más de 3.000 bancos se unen para evitar que la Ley de Claridad sea aprobada en el Senado
Burns Brief
Un anuncio reciente de la Asociación de Banqueros Estadounidenses (ABA) que se difundió por todo Washington muestra una clara ventaja en una campaña que se ha estado ejecutando durante meses. La noticia ha sacudido a los participantes del mercado, con los bajistas tratando de hacer bajar los precios mientras los alcistas intentan defender niveles clave de soporte. Esté atento a la confirmación del volumen: una ruptura por encima del volumen promedio indicaría que es probable que la tendencia continúe.
A recent American Bankers Association (ABA) ad running across Washington shows a clear edge in a campaign that has been running for months. The ad reads: “Protect local lending while embracing innovation. Tell Senators to close the stablecoin loophole.” ABA's advertising archive documents Politico Morning Money placements during the week of Mar. 9, urging senators to act on stablecoin yield, as well as a separate digital campaign targeting Congress, the White House, and regulatory agencies.

The committee's current public schedule features a Kevin Warsh nomination hearing on Apr. 21, with no CLARITY markup listed. Reports point to a possible markup in the final week of April or the second week of May, and that floor time before the summer campaign season is limited , and that the bill still carries unresolved disputes over ethics and illicit-finance provisions beyond the banking fight. Each additional round of negotiation over stablecoin yields further narrows the window. Keeping the yield fight alive long enough to compress the timeline is itself a win for the b
