In Washington, the regulatory future of cryptos may be decided in the coming months. Amid market volatility, the CLARITY Act stands as a pivotal text for the American crypto industry. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent advocates for its rapid adoption, believing that legislative clarification could soothe investor sentiment. Behind this tight schedule lies a major political stake: securing the crypto framework before the 2026 electoral balances reshuffle the cards.

Within a few sessions, bitcoin has plunged back into a turbulence zone rarely seen since previous major crashes. On-chain data reveals $2.3 billion in realized losses over seven days, a shock that ranks this episode among the most violent in its recent history. This wave of capitulation follows a brutal correction of BTC, falling heavily after its peak above $126,000.

Bitcoin nears $66,500, and short positions reach unprecedented highs since 2024. Could this extreme pessimism, often a sign of a reversal, trigger a rapid rebound?

The session tastes more like a "breather" than a victory. Yes, Aster, Hyperliquid, and Hedera jumped, and yes, the total crypto market capitalization timidly goes back into the green. But this rebound looks more like a market catching its breath after bad macro news than a real regime change.

A massive expiration shakes the crypto markets this Friday. Nearly 3 billion dollars worth of Bitcoin and Ethereum options mature on Deribit at 8:00 UTC. Traders remain cautious after last week's liquidation shock.

Policymakers often present them as faster and more efficient tools for payments and cross-border transfers. Yet billionaire investor and founder of Bridgewater Associates, Ray Dalio, argues that control remains at stake with such systems.

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market posted modest gains over the past 24 hours, even as fresh U.S. labor data complicated expectations for near-term rate cuts.

Instead, traders were left facing mixed signals.

The European Parliament has taken a decisive step in the development of the digital euro, endorsing a resolution that confirms its strategic importance for monetary sovereignty and the future of payments in Europe.

The crypto market sends contradictory signals. Indeed, investor sentiment has just reached a historic low, reflecting a strong distrust towards bitcoin. At the same time, some data from Binance indicate a slowdown in selling pressure.

An imbalance that raises questions about the relative strength of the two assets during this correction phase.

The boundary between traditional and decentralized finance continues to erode. This time, it is BlackRock that is shifting the lines.

Ondo Finance integrates Chainlink to bring live pricing to tokenized U.S. stocks, allowing them to serve as collateral in Ethereum DeFi.

Sam Bankman-Fried is seeking to reopen his criminal case tied to the collapse of FTX. The former crypto executive has requested a new trial, arguing that newly surfaced witness testimony could weaken key aspects of the prosecution’s case. Convicted on multiple fraud-related counts, Bankman-Fried now claims jurors did not see a complete and accurate picture of certain evidence. His filing frames the issue as one of fairness in the trial process rather than a disagreement with the verdict itself.

While the crypto market wavers and investors hold their breath, every statement from a sector leader becomes a decisive signal. Michael Saylor, co-founder and executive chairman of Strategy, reappears at the center of the game at a critical moment. As rumors of bitcoin sales spread, he answers frankly. Between prolonged price drops, loss-making results, and stock market tension, his statement sounds like an act of faith, or a risky bet, to defend a strategy that has become emblematic.
