Bernstein: CLARITY Act Yield Compromise to Strengthen Circle's Competitive Edge
Odaily. Bernstein stated in its latest research report that the newly reached compromise on stablecoin yields under the U.S. CLARITY Act is structurally beneficial for Circle and the USDC ecosystem.The report notes that the current version of the bill prohibits stablecoin issuers from paying interest to passive holders that is "economically equivalent" to bank deposits, but allows reward mechanisms tied to actual transaction, payment, and usage activities to continue. Bernstein believes this means Circle's current model, which relies on partners like Coinbase to provide USDC reward programs, will gain regulatory recognition, while also limiting the industry's ability to compete for market share through high yields.Bernstein points out that the bill effectively reinforces the positioning of stablecoins as "payment tools" rather than "deposit substitutes," helping to protect Circle's current business model that relies on reserve income. The firm maintains an "Outperform" rating for Circle with a $190 target price.Data shows that the total global supply of dollar-pegged stablecoins has surpassed $300 billion, with USDT and USDC collectively accounting for approximately 97% of the market share. Bernstein notes that USDC's share in on-chain payments and wallet transfers is steadily increasing, and its share of payments in the AI Agent payment protocol x402 has exceeded 99%.Additionally, Bernstein mentioned that Circle's ARC chain has cumulatively completed 244 million testnet transactions. The ARC token pre-sale previously raised $222 million, with investors including a16z crypto, Apollo Funds, ARK Invest, and BlackRock.However, the report also points out that the CLARITY Act still needs to complete multiple legislative procedures before it takes effect, including a 60-vote threshold in the full Senate and coordination with the House version. Polymarket currently estimates its probability of passage by 2026 at approximately 62%. (The Block)

Cathie Wood: The deflationary impact of AI is reshaping the macroeconomy; inflation over the next 6–9 months may fall below expectations
ARK Invest founder Cathie Wood stated that the current bond market is beginning to price in the deflationary impact of AI and technological innovation. She noted that as the costs of training and inference for AI models decline significantly, underlying productivity is accelerating, and “disinflationary” forces linked to innovation are building. Cathie Wood forecasts that inflation could unexpectedly fall over the next 6 to 9 months, and that markets currently underestimate both the speed and scale at which technological innovation is reshaping the macroeconomic environment—a trend expected to have profound implications for future interest rate movements.

Cathie Wood Clarifies: Binance Did Not Actively Trigger the “1011 Crypto Market Flash Crash”
Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, stated in her latest conversation with Changpeng Zhao (CZ) that Binance did not actively trigger the “October 11 crypto market flash crash” last year. She explained that the sharp market decline at the time caused partial system failures on Binance’s platform, and that tariff-related panic further amplified the market’s systemic fragility. Cathie Wood also noted that there had been a widespread misinterpretation of Binance’s role in the incident. In response, CZ expressed gratitude for the clarification, noting that prior statements had been widely cited by media outlets and had fueled the narrative that “Binance caused the crash.”
