📡 Market Update | CLARITY Fail + Fed Looms
Bitcoin dropped below $75K today, down about 4.6% on the day, after the CLARITY Act cloture vote failed in the Senate. Roughly $771M in liquidations hit the market as leveraged longs got flushed in a sell the news reaction.
Adding to the pressure: the FOMC decision lands tomorrow, Sept 16, with markets pricing an 85-91% chance of a 25bp rate hike, not a cut. That combo, a failed regulatory catalyst plus hawkish Fed odds, is why today's drop has more bite than a typical pullback.
Levels to watch: BTC is now sitting in the $74K-76K zone, well below the $78K-79K range it held most of last week and roughly 6-7% off this month's $82.3K high. Reclaiming $76.8K-77.6K would be the first sign of stabilization, while losing $74K opens the door toward deeper support.
My take: this looks like a headline driven flush, not a structural break. Worth staying cautious and keeping leverage light until the market has also digested tomorrow's Fed decision.
