• The US Senate last week failed to advance The Clarity Act, aimed at creating a regulatory framework for digital assets, in a setback for the broader industry
• “The Clarity Act’s failure narrowed the path to a market-structure bill, yet spurred Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) rule announcements that dampened negative sentiment,” Citi said
• Bitcoin and ether have rallied nearly 40 per cent and 68 per cent, respectively, in the past 3 months, narrowing their year-to-date losses to about 4 per cent and 9 per cent
• After months of lagging broader risk assets, bitcoin has risen 40 per cent since its July lows as a soft dollar, following the US Treasury’s recent move to buy back longer-dated bonds, revived momentum across crypto markets
