Bitcoin fell below $75,000 after the U.S. Senate narrowly failed to advance the CLARITY Act, a bill aimed at establishing clearer federal rules for the $2.3 trillion crypto market. The vote was 49–50, short of the 60 needed, reflecting political disagreements over ethics provisions. This setback casts doubt on comprehensive crypto regulation in the near term, especially with midterm elections approaching. Alongside Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and crypto-related stocks also declined, while macroeconomic pressures like rising Treasury yields and inflation concerns add to market challenges. The crypto industry now faces an uncertain regulatory future, with the next major legislative opportunity possibly years away, shifting focus back to market and Fed policy developments.
