According to CoinDesk, cryptocurrency industry practitioners saw for the first time on Monday during a closed-door review meeting on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., the latest provisions concerning stablecoin returns in the revised version of the Senate’s Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. Initial impressions were that the relevant language was too narrow and unclear. The new provision was announced last Friday by Senators Angela Alsobrooks and Thom Tillis. According to a person familiar with the current draft, the new clause will prohibit earning returns solely from holding stablecoins, while restricting any measures equating such programs with bank deposits. It also imposes further limitations on other potentially permissible activities, with the specific mechanism for determining activity-based stablecoin rewards remaining ambiguous.

The Pentagon plans to deploy a brigade combat team from the elite 82nd Airborne Division to the Middle East to support operations against Iran. Officials stated that written orders are expected to be issued within the next few hours to deploy this unit, which consists of approximately 3,000 soldiers. This combat brigade of the 82nd Airborne Division serves as the Army's rapid reaction force and can be deployed to any location worldwide within 24 hours. They are trained to parachute into hostile or contested territories to seize airports and land. Officials noted that the brigade will deploy alongside the division headquarters. Officials cautioned that no decision has been made regarding the deployment of ground forces in Iran. However, the movement of the 82nd Airborne Division opens the door for Trump to attempt actions using military force to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, seize strategic islands or coastlines in Iran, or initiate operations to capture Iran’s highly enriched uranium if he deems it necessary.
