Bitcoin Surges Past $84K Despite Clarity Act Failure
The recent failure of the Clarity Act in the Senate has not deterred Bitcoin bulls from their investment. In fact, it appears to have brought them back to the trade. On Monday, September 21, 2026, Bitcoin broke above $84,000 for the first time in eight months.
This development comes after the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act failed its procedural Senate vote last week due to concerns about government ethics provisions and presidential conflicts of interest. President Trump and his family have long been key players in crypto with their various investments.
Some market observers, like Strategy CEO Michael Saylor, see this as a positive inflection point for Digital Assets. 'The rejection of CLARITY marks a positive inflexion point for Digital Assets,' he said in an X post.
