A chaotic 48 hours for crypto — the Fed kicked off its first rate hike since 2023 with a 25bps move to 4%, and BTC ETFs bled $450M in a single day 📉. The Senate also killed the CLARITY Act, sending XRP down 10% and triggering roughly $480M in liquidations across the market. Yet BTC is holding above $76K, supported by sovereign accumulation narratives and El Salvador's reserve hitting 7,777 BTC 🟠. On the bright side, the House passed the Crypto Tax Certainty Act 38-5, proving bipartisan appetite for targeted crypto legislation isn't dead. Circle's Arc mainnet also went live with BlackRock and Visa as founding validators — institutional infrastructure keeps building regardless of the political noise 🏗️
