Bullish
Di tori dey generally positive for crypto because e dey show say CLARITY Act dey near a concrete Senate Banking Committee markup — e go reduce the regulatory uncertainty wey dey pressure positioning. The new fine say DeFi concerns fit “properly address” still boost risk-on expectations. But na not final law yet: areas wey never clear (money transmitter licensing, whether na securities or commodities, and ethics disclosures) plus the critical timing around the May window dey create execution risk. Na why market reaction go likely dey driven by “progress news” at first, but traders suppose avoid over-sizing until the April markup and the next legislative steps confirm momentum.
