Bitcoin Drops to $75.6K on CLARITY Act Uncertainty and a Fresh Bond-Yield Surge
Polymarket users gave the bill just 14% odds as rising bond yields and oil prices pushed investors out of risk assets.
- On Tuesday, Bitcoin dropped to $75,560, marking its lowest level in September ahead of a Senate procedural vote on the CLARITY Act.
- Polymarket users assigned the CLARITY Act only 14% odds of becoming law in 2026 as of Tuesday, despite potential regulatory clarity for the SEC and CFTC.
- Global bond yields surged to record levels, with the US 10-year yield reaching 5.041% and WTI crude oil nearing $105 per barrel on Tuesday.
- The Federal Reserve is widely expected to hike benchmark rates by 0.25% on Wednesday, while the Bank of Japan anticipates a similar increase at its Friday meeting.
- Trading firm QCP Capital noted that passing Tuesday's procedural vote would have limited market impact, as significant legislative hurdles remain before the CLARITY Act becomes law.
