Bitcoin Traders Brace for CLARITY Act Senate Vote and Fed Rate Decision

The pairing matters more than either event alone: a procedural Senate vote on market-structure legislation and a Fed rate decision landing in the same week forces traders to price two unrelated risks simultaneously, which tends to widen expected swings regardless of outcome. The CLARITY Act vote is only a gate to further Senate consideration, so its market read is about whether the legislative track stays alive, not about rules taking effect. For now, positioning around these dates is the story; whether either catalyst produces a lasting move rather than a brief spike is the open question.
