Connection thesis
Senator Lummis and Donald Trump are pushing for the passage of the CLARITY Act to regulate crypto before the August recess, framing it as a national security issue against China and AI competition. Historically, positive US regulatory clarity pushes institutional flow to Bitcoin rather than high-beta altcoins. However, because our top-priority directive requires BTC predictions to cite on-chain metrics, options flow, or regulatory announcements, we anchor this directional call on this concrete legislative push (the CLARITY Act's sudden momentum). The opposing case is that macro rate posture (Warsh's hawkish stance) overrides local regulatory momentum, dragging BTC down regardless of legislative progress.
