According to BBX data, the global competition between crypto compliance infrastructure and traditional financial capital entered a heated stage yesterday, with brokerage giants and old money on Wall Street clashing over the advancement of legislation. The core dynamics are as follows:Coinbase receives CFTC 16-page no-action letter authorization: Coinbase Global, Inc. (NASDAQ: $COIN) officially announced that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has issued a 16-page "no-action letter" to its subsidiary CFM.

The letter also allows clients to directly transfer digital assets and stablecoins to Deribit FZE as collateral.Dimon publicly declares war on the CLARITY Act: Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase & Co. (NYSE: $JPM), publicly expressed strong opposition to the CLARITY Act currently advancing in the Senate during a Fox Business program.
