Bitcoin Holds Near $65,200 as CLARITY Act Misses Senate Deadline; Week Ends Up 3.7%
AI Market Summary
Bitcoin held near $65,200 and rose 3.7% despite the CLARITY Act missing a Senate deadline, a reported Coldcard hardware-wallet exploit, and rising U.S. bond yields. Resilience was supported by strong U.S. spot BTC ETF inflows (~$853.5m weekly), though year-to-date flows remain roughly -$4.5bn. Near-term risk sensitivity shifts to upcoming U.S. CPI, which could alter rate expectations and risk-asset positioning.
