Bitcoin weathers September storm: Fed rate hike and CLARITY Act failure don't sink market
- —Bitcoin at $78,000, down 1.5% for the month, up 32% for the quarter
- —The CLARITY Act failed to reach 60 votes in the Senate: only 49
- —The Fed raised rates by 25 bps, the Bank of Japan to a 31-year high
- —WTI oil above $106, the dollar index exceeded 100
Why it matters: Resilience to bad news points to seller exhaustion; an improvement in macro or regulation could provide a growth impulse.
