- Vincent Van Code linked the CLARITY Act to possible XRP liquidity growth.

The CLARITY Act has entered a new stage of market discussion after BSCN reported that trader Vincent Van Code linked the bill to possible changes in the token liquidity. The Senate markup could give global banks clearer legal footing to use XRPL liquidity. However, the Senate Banking Committee had unveiled a 309-page draft bill before its scheduled hearing.
XRP Liquidity Thesis Centers on Bank Access
The XRP-focused discussion began with BSCN’s report on Van Code’s market thesis. He said the CLARITY Act could change how major institutions view the token markets. In his view, legal clarity could help banks use XRPL liquidity for large-scale settlement activity.
That argument focused on XRP’s possible role inside institutional liquidity pools. Van Code said Ripple’s escrow holdings could help seed those pools. He also linked the thesis to deeper market corridors involving several digital and tokenized assets.
Notably, the assets mentioned included RLUSD, EURCV, JPY, and Ondo-linked products. Van Code presented these corridors as possible routes for institutional flows and also described XRP as high-velocity collateral within that framework.
The analysis further claimed that deeper liquidity could support large settlement volumes. According to BSCN, Van Code said such liquidity could help large institutions move value across markets. However, the report framed the view as an analyst thesis, not a confirmed market outcome.
Draft Bill Adds Stablecoin Yield Restrictions
Meanwhile, the XRP discussion also came as analysts reported new details from the draft legislation. According to Bull theory, the Senate Banking Committee released a 309-page CLARITY Act draft before the hearing. The report said the text includes limits on stablecoin issuer activity.
Bull Theory noted that the draft bans issuers from paying interest or yield for simply holding stablecoins. The report added that the bill also blocks returns that are economically equivalent to interest-bearing bank deposits. That provision places stablecoin yield products at the center of the draft’s restrictions.
The reported language came after months of debate involving banks, crypto firms, and lawmakers. Bull Theory described the provision as a major win for traditional banks. Van Code’s view that the CLARITY Act could support XRPL-based institutional liquidity. The discussion now centers on how the Senate markup treats market structure, bank access, and stablecoin activity.
