Bitcoin’s $66,000 price breakout survives continued US-Iran escalation, but a bigger test looms
Bitcoin climbed above $66,000, extending its advance as exchange-traded fund inflows and a sharp drop in balances on major crypto exchanges eased some of the selling pressure that has weighed on the market since May.Data from CryptoSlate shows that the largest cryptocurrency traded as high as $66,277 and was changing hands near $66,181 as of press time, up about 3.3% from its previous close.The move took Bitcoin to its highest level in more than a month and placed it above the range that contained several recovery attempts during July.The advance also forced leveraged traders out of their positions.

Cynthia Lummis cast the CLARITY Act as a fix on July 20, boiling its promise down to four words.“Your crypto stays yours.”Her X post, which had drawn a lot of attention, said the CLARITY Act would change the outcome she associated with the failures of Celsius and Voyager.Celsius is probably the best legal example because a federal court ruled directly on ownership of its Earn balances.The May 12 Senate Banking manager’s substitute supports the direction of Lummis’s claim…

Bernie Moreno of Ohio and Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming and White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt to discuss ethics provisions for the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, or CLARITY Act.No agreement emerged from the July 16 meeting, but Trump subsequently approved proposed language…
For most of the month, traders had a pretty good explanation for Bitcoin’s refusal to budge. A dense cluster of options contracts, they argued, was holding the price in a cage between $60,000 and $65,000, with dealers buying dips and selling rallies to stay hedged.Friday’s expiry cleared roughly $1.2 billion of that exposure, and the aftermath was supposed to settle the question. If the options were pinning Bitcoin near $63,000, price should start drifting once they vanished.And it did. Bitcoin was trading around $66,200 on Tuesday, up about 2.9% on the day and roughly 5% on the week, pressing against…
