The Digital Asset Market Clarity Act of 2025 was intended to finally provide clarity in the United States’ approach to cryptocurrency regulation. The goal was to clear up the confusion between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) over which agency would regulate the space. But despite its significance, the bill is now stalled in the Senate. The hold-up is related to political wrangling over the inclusion of more ethical regulations, especially for public officials working with cryptocurrency firms. What the CLARITY Act Bill Does The bill essentially provides a framework for digital…
ColinTalksCrypto, a well-known analyst in the cryptocurrency world, evaluated Bitcoin’s current price movements and potential future lows in his latest video. Contrary to the general optimism in the market, the analyst painted a rather pessimistic picture, arguing that Bitcoin has not yet reached its true “bottom.” Colin points out a “Bear Flag” formation on the Bitcoin chart that has been ongoing since October. According to the analyst, the price’s trajectory around the $66,000 level is at a critical threshold. A daily close below this channel could technically trigger a sharp decline. Based on his analysis of decline rates in past…

Among the majors, Bittensor’s $TAO led the move, with $NEAR Protocol and Internet Computer also advancing. Nvidia’s new platform, according to Wired, will be called NemoClaw. The…
Amid the ongoing, massive-scale war, the inclusion of AI is scaring the world. Changpeng Zhao, the founder of Binance, has raised caution over the potential influence of AI’s use in warfare on the worldwide stability in regional, financial, and crypto landscapes. In his recent X post, Changpeng Zhao has reacted to China’s new release of footage showing the use of new robotic wolves in several simulated street fights. He called it more dangerous in comparison with nuclear weapons. AI inevitably leads to this, in every country. IMO, this is more scary than nuclear. One hacker … Sadly, I don’t see…

Bitcoin breaks critical support as dollar and oil move together, raising risk of a deeper drop
Bitcoin spent the past 24 hours returning to the key levels on my channel map rather than continuing its breakout. It tested a boundary, failed to convert that test into acceptance, and rotated lower into the next pocket of support memory. Bitcoin price slid from the upper $68,000s and low $69,000s to around $66,400 by late morning in Europe on April 2. The 24-hour move came in at roughly 3%, with the high near $69,170 and the low near $66,218. Over 48 hours, the net change stayed close to flat, yet the path inside that window shifted the balance of…

The pair could start a fresh increase if it stays above the $2,220 zone. Ethereum Price Dips Further Ethereum price failed to remain stable above $2,320 and started a downside correction, like Bitcoin. $ETH price dipped…
