Bitcoin fell nearly $3,000 on July 31, dropping to an intraday low of $62,369 after failing to hold $65,000, which erased $100 million in leveraged long bets and reduced its monthly gains from 10% to 4.5%. The sell-off also cut Bitcoin's market capitalization from $1.3 trillion to $1.26 trillion. The decline followed a brief rally fueled by the Federal Reserve's decision to keep interest rates steady, but market sentiment was dampened by stalled progress on the U.S. Senate's CLARITY Act, which is seen as crucial for crypto regulation and long-term growth. Without regulatory clarity, Bitcoin's price remains vulnerable to sharp swings as traders adjust positions amid uncertain policy developments.
