#MEGA: Real-Time Execution Layer for BREAKING: The U.S. Senate Banking Committee Has Passed the Clarity Act, the Major Cryptocurrency Bill



The long-awaited cryptocurrency market regulation bill, the CLARITY Act, has passed a crucial vote in the Senate committee.

The Clarity Act passed the Senate Banking Committee with a vote of 15 to 9. Two Democratic senators, Ruben Gallego and Angela Alsobrooks, voted in favor of the bill.

Although the bill has passed the committee stage, it still has several important steps to go through before it becomes law. If the final text passed by the Senate is identical to the version passed by the House of Representatives, the bill will be sent directly to the US President for signature or could automatically become law under certain procedures. However, as with most processes, differences between the Senate and House versions are expected.

In this case, a “reconciliation” process will begin between the two chambers. This process could proceed through the parties submitting mutual amendment proposals or by establishing a joint reconciliation committee. The resulting joint text will then be voted on again by both the Senate and the House of Representatives. After both chambers accept the same text, the bill will be formally submitted to the President for approval. Experts say that this entire process could take anywhere from a few weeks to several months.

On the other hand, the recently published revised text of the CLARITY Act is noteworthy, particularly for the decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystem. The updated version of the bill offers clearer legal protections and developer guarantees for DeFi developers who are developing protocols in the US. It is believed that, similar to the GENIUS Act, which is considered to have acc

U.S. semiconductor equities rallied on May 13, with major chipmakers posting strong gains as investors rotated back into high-growth technology exposure following recent macro data surprises. Summary U.S. semiconductor stocks rose broadly, with Micron up nearly 5%, ON Semiconductor also up close to 5%, and NXP Semiconductors gaining 4.6%. The move reflects strengthening risk appetite in Al and hardware-linked equities as inflation data reshapes macro expectations.
Ethereum, often correlated with high-beta tech and compute cycles, is increasingly positioned as a "digital infrastructure asset" in risk-on phases. Micron Technology climbed nearly 5%, ON Semiconductor rose close to 5%, and NXP Semiconductors advanced 4.6%, according to Jinshi reports.

Semiconductor strength reinforces
Ethereum's "compute beta" narrative While the rally in chipmakers is rooted in traditional equity markets, the spillover effect into crypto is increasingly visible in Ethereum pricing dynamics, where ETH tends to respond to shifts in global risk appetite for computational infrastructure. Ethereum's ecosystem sits at the intersection of financial settlement, decentralized applications and blockchain-based computation. As semiconductor stocks rally on expectations of sustained demand for advanced processing and Al workloads, investors often extend that narrative to Ethereum as a digital equivalent of programmable infrastructure. The correlation is not direct, but sentiment linkag

Цена Worldcoin [WLD] упала на 10% за прошедшие сутки, поскольку постоянные участники рынка подтолкнули его к медвежьему тренду.

Падение произошло всего через несколько дней после того, как команда, стоящая за Worldcoin, продала около 51,17 миллиона единиц WLD на сумму приблизительно 13,67 миллиона долларов за 14-дневный период с 25 апреля по 10 мая.

Теперь постоянные трейдеры оказывают новое давление на WLD, в то время как спотовые трейдеры продолжают накапливать актив со скидкой, подвергая себя значительному риску снижения цены.

Fabio Panetta elected Chair of Bank for International Settlements BoardFabio Panetta, the Governor of the Bank of Italy and a long-standing skeptic of unbacked cryptocurrencies, has been elected Chair of the Board of Directors of the Bank for International Settlements. He will assume the role on 3 June 2026 for a three-year term, succeeding François Villeroy de Galhau.

The BIS is essentially the central bank for central banks. It coordinates monetary policy among 63 member central banks and sets the intellectual agenda for global financial regulation.

A crypto critic takes the wheel

Panetta’s views on crypto are well-documented and decidedly unenthusiastic. He has repeatedly warned that unbacked crypto assets pose risks to financial stability and that large private stablecoins could threaten monetary sovereignty.

His preferred alternative has always been central bank digital currencies. Panetta has been one of the most vocal advocates for the digital euro during his time at both the European Central Bank and the Bank of Italy. He sees CBDCs not as a nice-to-have experiment, but as a necessary defensive move by central banks to maintain relevance in a digitizing financial system.

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure Crypto analyst Bee has forecasted a major price bottom for Bitcoin (BTC), the world’s largest digital currency. Despite its recent rally above $80,000, the expert still believes that BTC remains in a broader bearish market, likely viewing the latest price gains as a temporary bounce. While some analysts think that Bitcoin’s downtrend is over and others project a bottom around the $50,000 range, Bee expects BTC’s price to decline even lower before a sustained rally can begin.  Bitcoin Price Set To Bottom Around $42,000In an X post on May 11, Bee said that Bitcoin is just one leg away from reaching its historical cycle bottom. The market expert shared a video chart analysis highlighting technical patterns and historical trends to support their bearish Bitcoin price outlook.  Related Reading: 9 Red Candles Before The Bottom: Why Bitcoin Price Will Continue To CrashThe analyst’s chart shows that Bitcoin has been forming multiple ascending channels within a broader descending channel since reaching a cycle peak above $126,200 in October 2025. After recording this all-time high, Btc crashed to $82,167, forming a lower low, where the first ascending channel began. Within this channel, the cryptocurrency traded sideways for months before rallying again to touch the upper boundary of the pattern at around $97,855. After that lower high was reached, BTC began crashing again, but this time, the decline was even sharper and more severe. The cryptocurrency had fallen to $59,900 around February 2026, forming a lower low that many analysts still consider BTC’s final cycle bottom. Source: Chart from Bee on XSince hitting that floor, Bitcoin has been on a steady upward rally with occasional pullbacks and volatility impacting its price.
