Coinbase Chief Legal Officer Paul Grewal said the U.S. Clarity Act is "very close" to an agreement on how stablecoin yield should be handled, following a Wednesday interview. He argued there is no evidence that allowing yield on idle stablecoin balances would trigger bank deposit flight and said the yield debate should not be mixed with other issues banks are facing. Coinbase shares closed down 0.9% on Wednesday at $172.99 after falling 50% over the past six months.

Concerns about whether quantum computers could eventually compromise Bitcoin have resurfaced, as discussions focus on signature security and the network’s ability to adapt. The debate points to Satoshi Nakamoto’s only public comment from 2010, outlining how Bitcoin could respond if quantum breakthroughs arrived suddenly or gradually. Analysts also cite today’s hardware limits, contrasting ~6,000-qubit systems with estimates that far more stable qubits would be needed to threaten modern cryptography.
