The cryptocurrency industry is taking a significant blow, with no majority in Washington backing the Clarity Act after multiple attempts. This legislation aimed to clarify whether cryptocurrencies are securities or commodities, providing investors with legal certainty and fostering further growth, according to Jennifer Lassiter from Standard Chartered in the "Handelsblatt Invest" podcast.
The market reacted sharply to this news. Coinbase's stock dropped by ten percent on Tuesday, while the Stablecoin provider Circle saw a loss of eleven percent. Bitcoin temporarily fell below $75,000, and XRP lost nearly ten percent. The once-dynamic boost for the crypto world has now turned into a brake.
