Bitcoin and crypto stocks remain down after US senate fails to advance regulatory bill
The US Senate voted to block the Clarity Act from advancing, dealing a blow to the crypto industry's push for a comprehensive market framework. The bill required 60 votes to move forward but fell short.
Bitcoin dropped in response to the vote, with CNBC World and Decrypt reporting a decline, though Decrypt noted the move was not a panic. According to Hindustan Times - World News, Bitcoin fell about 3% during the day.
The Clarity Act aimed to create a clear federal regulatory framework for digital assets in the US. Its failure leaves the crypto industry without a comprehensive market framework, at least for now.
