[Summary of content] On March 24, 2026, affected by the draft "Clarity Act", Circle's stock price plummeted 20%. The draft intends to prohibit stablecoins from "passively earning interest", directly attacking Circle's core business model. Although USDC has a circulating volume of US$78.9 billion, and Circle is developing AI payments and CPN networks, the dual pressures of regulation and interest rates have put it under short-term pressure. The future of Circle depends on whether it can win the game in Washington and successfully transform into a global financial infrastructure.
