CLARITY Act Rejected 50-49: What's Next for Crypto Markets?

The rejection of the CLARITY Act by a vote of 50-49 could increase regulatory uncertainty for crypto markets and create short-term selling pressure. BTC is currently around 75,950 and is trading weakly, down 1.3% in 24 hours; RSI at 44.9 is in neutral territory, but MACD is negative and below the signal line. While the price is near SMA20, staying below SMA50 indicates that the short-term trend is downward. Due to uncertainty in the news flow, there is a possibility of a pullback toward the 74,000-75,000 band within 1-3 days. Nevertheless, since reaction buying may emerge, I anticipate a cautious downward bias rather than a definitive decline.

The rejection of the CLARITY Act by a 50-49 vote increases uncertainty around crypto regulations in the US, potentially weakening risk appetite in the short term. ETH has already fallen 2.98% in 24 hours, and with an RSI of 43, it shows weak momentum; the MACD is in negative territory but above the signal line, indicating the pace of decline has somewhat slowed. The price is trading very close to the SMA20 (2405) while remaining below the SMA50 (2460), suggesting short-term pressure persists. Although the news does not impose a direct ban, the prolonged regulatory timeline could be priced in negatively. Nevertheless, the reaction may be limited; as long as the 2400 support is not broken, a sharp sell-off should not be expected.

The rejection of the CLARITY Act by a vote of 50-49 increases uncertainty regarding crypto regulations in the US, potentially weakening risk appetite in the short term. SOL has fallen 3.4% in the last 24 hours to 97.61, just above the SMA20 but below the SMA50. The RSI is at 44, in neutral-weak territory, and the MACD is negative but slightly above the signal line, indicating a potential recovery. Although the news flow is negative, the price holding above the SMA20 and the MACD crossing above the signal line may limit a sharp decline. Nevertheless, due to regulatory uncertainty, the likelihood of downward pressure in the next 1-3 days is higher.

The rejection of the CLARITY Act by a 50-49 vote increases uncertainty about crypto regulations in the US, creating a short-term negative news flow for XRP. The price has already fallen 8.9% in 24 hours and is trading below the SMA20 (1.2973) at 1.2837; the RSI at 35 is weak but has not yet entered oversold territory. The MACD is negative and below the signal line, indicating that downward momentum continues. The reaction after the news could be selling; however, the low RSI levels increase the likelihood of a sideways-weak trend rather than a sharp decline. If it drops below 1.28, support around 1.25 could be tested; a close above 1.30 is needed for a recovery.
