When the Clarity Act becomes law, for the first time, there will be a consumer-friendly disclosure framework for digital assets. Not retrofitted from 1933. Built for 2026 and beyond.

@dom_kwok @easya_app Happy Monday!! 💕☀️

[Dom Kwok | EasyA @dom_kwok]

lots of you are asking how this works so i'll explain from a 10,000 feet view:

- peace deal means strait of hormuz opens, and oil can flow freely (no more supply shortage).

- since there's more supply, oil prices go down.

- when oil prices go down, inflation goes down.

- when inflation goes down, rates can come down.

- when rates come down, risk assets (like crypto) go up.

if the peace deal doesn't get signed (june 19th) then the opposite will be true too.

but for now, crypto is up for these exact reasons.

Proud to cheer on Team Clarity at last night’s Congressional Baseball Game with the Ripple team. Whether on the diamond or in digital assets, everyone wins when everyone knows the rules and plays by them. The need for clear rules isn’t partisan. It’s a prerequisite to America winning.

Flare founder @HugoPhilion just said it out loud 👀

XRP and Ripple were accused of being the banker coin… now everyone in the entire industry is desperate to be the banker coin.

They mocked the vision. Now they're copying it 🔥

@easya_app @kwok_phil Congratulations!

expect continued volatility as we see some huge equity raises this week / in the near future:

$SPCX raising $75b
OpenAI raising $100b
Anthropic raising $75b
$GOOG raising $80b

the public is being asked to fund all this so expect selling as they reallocate their portfolios to scoop up some of these offerings.

[Senator Cynthia Lummis @SenLummis]

The Clarity Act passed committee. The floor is next. We did not come this far to quit at the 5 yard line.

markets are in turmoil. people are throwing in the towel.

but before you miss out on the generational run that's coming, read this.

a golden opportunity for the contrarian.

markets sold off friday after a hotter than expected jobs report led people to believe the fed would raise (not lower) rates in 2026.

but if history's anything to go by, the market is wrong. and instead, we're on the verge of a colossal bull run when people expect it the least.

here's why we're approaching the perfect storm for crypto and growth stocks:

- AI / tech advancements are deflationary

despite oil prices spiking over the past year, the yield curve is flattening. this suggests bond markets are pricing in the deflationary effects of AI and tech (AI drives deflation by reducing the costs of production, labor, innovation etc).

- hotter jobs report than expected (172,000 jobs added (vs 85k expected) is good for the economy, not bad

stronger than expected employment is good, not bad. historically, higher productivity and lower labor costs have been indicators of a healthy economy, not an inflationary one.

- geopolitical tensions easing

all signs point towards geopolitical tensions in the middle east easing. once they do, oil prices will plummet, leading to steep deflation (not inflation).

- new fed chair / policy

all the above would give kevin warsh, the newly appointed fed chair, a chance to lower rates and bring back the bull.

the result?

accelerating economic growth, lower inflation and falling rates. the perfect storm to send crypto and high-growth stocks to new all-time highs.

@Ripple CTO Emeritus @JoelKatz on where XRP is headed:

"Tokenized securities. Money market funds. Stocks. Repos. Loans."

Enterprise adoption is already here. Mass retail is next.

before crypto, i worked at some of the top firms on wall street, @GoldmanSachs and @blackstone.

and from speaking to many of my ex-colleagues on wall street, i can confidently say that big banks have never been more scared of crypto eating their lunch.

in fact, they're so scared, that jp morgan, citi and others are planning to launch their own tokenized deposit network to compete with crypto.

but if you like crypto, you won't like the banks' alternative. in fact, you'll want to steer well clear.

here's why:

- with their network, you won't own your money

if the bank fails or faces a run, you lose your tokens (just how you would with your fiat). the main beauty of crypto is that you hold your private keys so you are fully in control of your own money (no one can freeze it).

- it's a permissioned, closed network

access to their network still requires the banks' permission. unlike public blockchains, which are permissionless and let anyone participate.

- run by the banks who've been campaigning against crypto

their network will be run by The Clearing House (payments company owned by JP Morgan, Citi, BofA and other big banks). do you really think they have the consumers' best interests at heart?

- no privacy or transparency

the beauty of crypto is that you can make transactions without a middleman and no one can freeze your funds. however, every transaction on the banks' network will be subject to their oversight and must fall within their KYC / AML processes. this means governments and banks can still freeze your funds for whatever reason they want.

- designed to keep the banks in full control

they want a system that will let them keep their fees and revenue model. stablecoins threaten to pull billions in deposits away from banks - this is their last ditch attempt to stop that.

- limits defi innovation

by controlling their own permissioned blockchain, banks prevent users from using other blockchain protocols that could allow them to get higher yields etc (one of the main attractions of defi for many users).

$RLUSD is institutional-grade infrastructure for payments and tokenization.

Through @wormhole’s Native Token Transfers (NTT), $RLUSD can now move natively across multiple blockchain ecosystems, supporting cross-border payments, institutional on/off-ramps, and tokenization use cases.

For developers and institutions building onchain, that expands access to compliant, USD-backed liquidity across supported networks.

[Ripple @Ripple]

The demand for modern, always-on settlement infrastructure continues to grow.

@Mastercard’s support for $RLUSD and the XRP Ledger reflects growing demand for trusted digital assets and blockchain infrastructure that can power faster, more flexible settlement.

[Ripple @Ripple]

$RLUSD is now available in Türkiye through three new partners: @BiLira_Kripto, @Bitexencom and @Bitlocom: https://t.co/85syhW1P3m

This is the latest step in a global expansion that has taken RLUSD from launch to a $1.7bn+ market cap in under a year.

The demand for regulated, enterprise-grade stablecoins is global. RLUSD is meeting it.

@dom_kwok @easya_labs Have an amazing week!

[RippleX @RippleXDev]

Can XRP be used in strategies involving lending and vaults? Absolutely.

@HugoPhilion breaks down how XRP can be used as collateral to access yield strategies.

That includes wrapping XRP as FXRP on @FlareNetworks, borrowing stablecoins against it, and deploying those assets into other protocols, alongside vault-based strategies on XRPL and Flare.

@dom_kwok @WestsideLAGuy Super sad and just plan disgusting

[Senator Cynthia Lummis @SenLummis]

Without the Clarity Act, if a digital asset exchange goes bankrupt, customers have no guaranteed right to their own assets. They join a creditor line w/ other Wall Street firms and expensive lawyers and hope for the best. This is a consumer protection failure Congress must fix.
