Negotiations Update: Stablecoin Yield Discussions Still Ongoing
According to the latest report by crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett, after an anonymous individual commented on stablecoin yield negotiations, several industry figures publicly backed Patrick Witt and the White House.
I shared the related tweet and reactions from crypto Twitter with a banking insider familiar with the talks. They revealed that bank industry representatives (including the American Bankers Association, Independent Community Bankers of America, and Bank Policy Institute), who attended last week’s White House meeting, were puzzled by the anonymous account and explicitly disagreed with the claims. They have already conveyed their position to the White House.
- Industry reps questioned the "nihilistic" tone of the anonymous statement
- Discussions are ongoing with both sides exchanging views
- The March 1 date is not a hard deadline
Despite growing external interest in the negotiations, insiders say there is currently no time pressure, and both parties are actively communicating in pursuit of a mutual agreement.
