Bitcoin Dives Below $76K as Senate Votes on CLARITY Act
Bitcoin's price dropped below $76,000 after the Senate voted on the CLARITY Act, a significant crypto regulation bill that aims to define rules for decentralized finance (DeFi) and impose ethics restrictions. However, despite concerns about market uncertainty, open interest in Bitcoin futures dropped by only 13.5% over 10 days, signaling reduced leverage rather than a crash.
The CLARITY Act faces opposition from Republicans and Democrats, and the vote will not finalize the law but determine if the bill proceeds to debate. This ongoing deliberation has sparked caution in the market, with investors closely watching its impact on crypto regulation and stability.
Bitcoin's market cap remains significant at Rp27.155,17 trillion as of September 15, 2026, and its price has declined by 2.35% over the past day. The 24-hour trading volume remains robust at Rp575,35 trillion, indicating steady investor engagement despite regulatory uncertainties.
