🤚 The CLARITY Act failed to pass
The Senate blocked the bill in a procedural vote. The market reacted instantly: $300M in crypto longs were liquidated in just 20 minutes. BTC is back under selling pressure.
But regulators aren't backing down. SEC Chair Paul Atkins said the agency will deliver regulatory clarity for crypto "with or without legislation." The CFTC is also ready to issue crypto rules on its own.
📈 The Fed raised rates by 25 bps
Fed Chair Kevin Warsh: "Inflation has been too high for too long." The Fed isn't confident inflation is moving toward its target and expects one more rate hike before year-end. Higher rates can put additional pressure on crypto and equities, while making more conservative assets relatively more attractive.
🪙 The US is moving toward a Bitcoin reserve
The House Committee approved a bill to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, under which the US would hold BTC as a government reserve asset.
The market is under pressure from multiple directions right now. Spot or Perpetuals. The choice is yours 💰

Brent crude is back above $100 for the first time since July, clearing a key psychological level. WTI is closing in on the same mark.
📈 Oil is up more than 10% over the past month. Behind the rally: escalating tensions in the Middle East. Traffic through the Strait of Hormuz has fallen to multi-year lows, and alternative supply routes are under threat.
The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve is at its lowest level since 1982. Goldman Sachs sees Brent at $120 if the conflict drags on.
💰 Moves are sharp in both directions. Perpetuals on Brent and WTI are available in Wallet 24/7 from $1.
At 17:15 UTC, the US Senate votes on the CLARITY Act. We broke down the bill in detail in this post.
There's disagreement in the Senate: Democrats sent Republicans a counter-proposal, and the odds of passage have dropped sharply to 16%. BTC has already reacted, falling below $77,000.
A trader isn't one who always gets it right. It's one who knows how to adapt.
Now it's easier: you can change your perpetual position size on the spot, without closing and reopening. Your liquidation price updates accordingly.
📉 Market moving against you? Partially close the position to lock in part of the loss and reduce risk.
↗️ Position in profit? You have options: take some gains off the table, or add to the position without closing the trade. Scale up a long with a buy, a short with a sell. Leverage and direction stay the same.
Open Perpetuals and try it yourself. Available now for all open positions ✅
