They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that’s not just a metaphor, it’s a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses.

In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer…

Will the CLARITY Act be good — or bad — for DeFi?

boss

The US Senate returned from a two-week recess on Monday, bringing the CLARITY Act back into the spotlight. Stablecoin yield has dominated the debate, but the treatment of decentralized finance (DeFi) remains a big issue, particularly for non-custodial platforms and developers operating without control over user funds. Over the years, many DeFi platforms have restricted or geoblocked US users due to regulatory uncertainty and enforcement risk. Or at least have done so in the past. The US has been treated as a restricted jurisdiction by several DeFi interfaces. (Hyperliquid) Magazine…
