The Genius Act contains a small -detected clause that prevents Wall Street’s technology giants and behemoths from the dominance of the Stablecoin market, according to Circle’s chief Circle Dante Disparte.
“The Genius Act has what I want to call – just for my own heritage – a Libra clause,” dispute said The unchained podcast on Saturday.

Banks don’t get a free pass. Lenders who release a stablecoin should give it a legal separate subsidiary and keep the coins on a sheet of balance that carries “no risk-taking, no action, no lending,” said dispart.
That structure is even “more conservative” than JPMorgan deposit-token models and others float. “It creates clear rules that I think ultimately the biggest winners are US buyers and market participants and openly the dollar itself,” he added.

Defi gets edge while yielding a genius
Prohibition of the Genius Act in Ani-Bearing Stablecoins may redirect investor demand towards Ethereum-based Decentralized Finance (DEFI) Platforms.
Without incentives in interest left in stablecoins, Defi becomes the main choice For the development of Passive Income Onchain, according to analysts such as Nic Puckrin and Christopher Perkins of Coinfund, which predicts that “Stablecoin Summer” can now sprout in “Defi Summer.”
The ban is especially significant for institutional investors.
