**Clarity Act sinks in the Senate:** the procedural vote did not reach the required 60 votes; all Democrats voted against it. The bill sought to define which tokens are securities and which are commodities, giving the CFTC jurisdiction over BTC and ETH spot. Its failure leaves the regulatory framework in the same limbo.
Why did it fall? Democratic resistance to ceding power to the CFTC (seen as more lenient than the SEC) and mistrust over consumer protection. Now, the crypto market remains regulated case by case, with the SEC leading enforcement.
Meanwhile, **Bitcoin trades at 75,710 USD** (24h var.: -0.28%), moving sideways between 75K and 77K. The Fear & Greed index fell from 69 to 51 (Neutral) in a day. Daily and 4H bearish bias; weekly and monthly bullish. Timeframe conflict: price swept lows at 74,909 and bounced, but without clearly breaking bullish structure.
**The paradox:** the market expected the Clarity Act as a bullish catalyst, but the rejection didn’t send the price down. A sign that the focus is no longer on US regulation, but on global institutional adoption (Circle + BlackRock, ETFs, tokenization). Is the price pricing in that clarity will come through another route—or is it simply numb?
Do you think the Clarity Act was really necessary or has the crypto market already learned to move without a clear regulatory framework? Share your take in the comments.
