Food for thought. Will the CLARITY Act wake investors up to the real carry trade? More than 7.75 trillion dollars now sits in US money market funds, while roughly 3 trillion in reserve balances is parked at the Federal Reserve earning about 3.65%. That is over $10 trillion still chained to the logic of the old monetary order, accepting what looks like “safe” yield even as the purchasing power of the underlying currency is steadily eroded. Since the gold window closed in 1971, broad money has exploded growing at close to 8% p/a; the fiat unit of account is designed to grow, yet savers are asked to pretend that a nominal rate a few points above zero is “risk‑free.” Sensible is not the same thing as efficient. Nor is “risk‑free” the same thing as preserving real wealth. The thesis of the incumbent system is simple. Safety lives in bank deposits, Treasury bills, central bank reserves and government‑only money funds. Investors, chastened by crises, park cash in money markets for liquidity and low volatility. Banks, scarred by regulation, leave reserves at the Fed for a predictable overnight rate and a quiet life with supervisors. The classical carry trade built on this foundation was straightforward: borrow cheaply at the policy rate and reach a little for yield in duration or credit, clipping a modest spread. Now add the risk free rate in the digital world. The antithesis is already visible in the digital world. Instruments linked to Bitcoin‑centred balance sheets and digitally native structures are building a different yield curve. Strategy’s STRC, a perpetual preferred backed by a Bitcoin‑levered corporate, has recently offered an annualised 11.5%, paid monthly, with distributions structured as return of capital rather than ordinary income. It is not a Treasury bill, and there is balance‑sheet risk. But it shows that the market can engineer “cash‑like” exposure with double‑digit, tax‑efficient payouts, anchored in hard digital collateral rather than in the spread between overnight funding and a five‑year note. Bitcoin itself sits at the philosophical core: its supply is capped at 21 million coins, while fiat continues to expand. The synthesis is a new definition of “risk‑free” and a new destination for the global carry trade. Public debate still obsesses over the dialectic of stablecoins versus bank deposits. The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 would create a federal framework for digital asset markets and formalise regulatory boundaries. More important is what such a law would symbolise: a tacit admission that a parallel monetary system is being built on top of the US dollar and Treasury market, but with yields discovered in competitive digital markets rather than by the constricted economics of legacy banks. Fully collateralised, dollar‑denominated, Treasury‑backed structures on public rails can in principle offer both the credit quality of the US sovereign and higher, more transparent yields than the old deposit‑money market complex. This does not make every high‑yield token or Bitcoin‑linked security safe. It does mean that “risk‑free” in the old world has become a marketing phrase for nominal returns that often fail to protect purchasing power. Banks leaving reserves at 3.65 % are leaving money on the table. Investors accepting mid‑single‑digit money‑market yields in a structurally inflationary fiat regime are doing much the same. The real question is whether the CLARITY Act will be remembered as the moment investors finally woke up to a generational shift: the point at which they realised that the true baseline for low‑volatility, dollar‑denominated returns had begun to migrate out of the old banking system and into a new, digital, USD Treasury‑backed monetary architecture. Yes Bretton Woods 2.0 is upon us, the only question now is when will investors wake up to the opportunities in front of them.

⛔️BREAKING: Sen Tillis: "I’m going to ask the chair to move forward with scheduling a markup when we get back" Just more talk... or this could be the BIG push to the finishline for CLARITY ACT.
Eleanor Terrett@EleanorTerrett

🚨NEW: @SenThomTillis (R-NC) says he’s ready to push the Clarity Act forward to a markup. “I’m going to ask the chair to move forward with scheduling a markup when we get back… I think we’ve made a lot of progress… and it’s time to get it before the committee to move it forward,” Tillis told my inimitable friend and former colleague @ChaseWilliams_ in a reporter gaggle on Capitol Hill this morning following the Warsh vote. Tillis went on to say most bank concerns on stablecoin yield have been heard and addressed, adding that others are welcome to “come and work in good faith.” On timing: Tillis hopes to release legislative text on stablecoin yield 4–5 days before a markup after stakeholders get a preview. On software developers and how law enforcement views the potential impact on enforcement under the 1960 criminal statute, a new flag Tillis raised this week, he pointed to @SenLummis’ approach, saying he’s “generally in support” of where the bill stands.

@TimWarrenTrades What I am noticing is as soon any correlation (for example that with the IGV or before with the SPX) or a narrative around BTC gets well know, it stops being valid soon after. BTC and many cryptos in general are chameleons. It might get correlated with SPX again soon. Who knows.

You've heard that Bitcoin trades like a software stock. But The higher this chart goes the less that is true. (BTC/IGV) Fears around Anthropic's Mythos is causing a further selloff in $IGV software ETF today as $BTC pushes higher. This represents what could be the beginning of a big change in the mind of Wall Street. Bitcoin is not software as a service. Bitcoin is software as hard value. Is Bitcoin truly deepening from SaaS?

While @coinbase has yet to comment directly on where it stands on the current stablecoin yield compromise, this is a strong indicator that negotiations have concluded in a place they can live with.
Brian Armstrong@brian_armstrong

We agree. Thank you @SecScottBessent for saying it. It's time to pass the Clarity Act. Grateful for all the bipartisan work among Senators and staff over the past several months to make this a strong bill.

🚨 BREAKING: Democratic Sen. Alsobrooks just dropped a bomb! Here's what she just said to a room of community bankers: “I think I have to level set that all of us will probably walk away just a little bit unhappy. The compromise that myself and Sen. Tillis (Republican) have been working on is one we believe will help prevent deposit flight and allow innovation to grow at the same time.” (per @EleanorTerrett ) Passage is close when a Democrat is breaking the hard news to donors.
