(NASDAQ:COIN) withdrew support.\nGarlinghouse called the CLARITY Act a “massive step forward” despite its flaws, arguing that regulatory clarity beats chaos after Ripple’s five-year legal battle with the SEC over XRP (CRYPTO: XRP).\n“Clarity is always better than chaos,” Garlinghouse said, adding that “perfection is the enemy of good” when creating new legislation.\nHe acknowledged the bill isn’t perfect but stressed that even flawed legislation provides crucial legal clarity that can be refined over time. \nGarlinghouse said the industry can’t afford to stall now after coming this close to passing meaningful regulation.\nCoinbase CEO Brian Armstrong pulled support for the bill last week after a rapid 48-hour review, warning the draft could worsen the “murky” regulatory landscape rather than improve it.\nCardano (CRYPTO: ADA) founder Charles Hoskinson went further, saying the bill “hands the entire keys to the cryptocurrency kingdom” to the SEC. \nHoskinson criticized Garlinghouse directly, stating “Sorry Brad, it’s not better than chaos. Take the chaos and fight for what’s right.”\nThe current draft requires cryptocurrencies to fall under SEC oversight unless teams can prove sufficient decentralization—a reversal that opponents say gives regulators too much control.\nMoreover, the White House warned it may withdraw support for the CLARITY Act if major industry consensus isn’t reached, highlighting friction over stablecoin yields and market structure rules.\nGarlinghouse is betting that incremental progress through an imperfect bill beats waiting for perfect legislation that may never come.\nHis position reflects Ripple’s scars from the SEC lawsuit, which cost the company years of legal fees and regulatory uncertainty. \nFor Garlinghouse, any clarity is better than the status quo where regulators can weaponize ambiguous rules against crypto companies.\nThe question is whether the rest of the industry agrees. \nIf major players like Coinbase and Cardano continue opposing the bill, it may not have enough industry backing to move forward—even if Ripple thinks it’s good enough.\nImage: Shutterstock","kind":"highlight","is_publish_news":true,"is_publish_highlight":false,"is_publish_live":false,"is_publish_wemedia":null,"editions":null,"column":"","sentiment":"1","news_tag":"policyRegulatory","news_rank":0,"symbols":[],"gpt_button":0,"need_auth":false,"code":"91000000","status":"200"},"commentList":[],"isCommentEnd":true,"newsSizeData":{"likeSize":0,"commentSize":0,"repostSize":0,"favoriteSize":0,"likeStatus":false,"favoriteStatus":false},"APP":{"userAgent":"Mozilla/5.0 AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko; compatible; ClaudeBot/1.0; +claudebot@anthropic.com)","isDev":false,"isTTM":true,"tenantId":"TBGLOBAL","deviceId":"web-server-community-laohu8-v3","version":"4.36.0","shortVersion":"4.36.0","platform":"web","vendor":"web","appName":"ttm","isIOS":false,"isAndroid":false,"isTiger":false,"isTHS":false,"isWeiXin":false,"isWeiXinMini":false,"isWeiBo":false,"isQQ":false,"isBaiduSwan":false,"isBaiduBox":false,"isDingTalk":false,"isToutiao":false,"isOnePlus":false,"isHuaWei":false,"isXiaomi":false,"isXiaomiWebView":false,"isOppo":false,"isVivo":false,"isSamsung":false,"isMobile":false},"href":"/m/news/2605118094","isCrawlerRequest":true}
