Bitcoin hits $64,360 amid CLARITY Act vote uncertainty and $35M short squeeze

Bitcoin reached a high of $64,360, supported above $63,500, driven by a short squeeze wiping out $35 million in short positions. The price movement coincides with anticipation of a U.S. Senate vote on the CLARITY Act, though the odds of the bill passing have dropped to 25%. Analysts from Bitfinex warn that Bitcoin's near-term direction depends on real yields and maintaining support between $62,000 and $65,000. If the legislation stalls, Bitcoin's rally prospects will rely more on broader economic factors than crypto-specific events.
