🚨 BREAKING NEWS | All Three Crypto Bills Just Passed the U.S. House of Representatives 🆕🆕🆕

Despite recent drama and uncertainty, both the Democratic and Republican parties pushed through the legislation with much stronger support than expected.

✍️ Let’s recap:

📌 The CLARITY Act: Aims to establish a market structure framework for digital assets. Passed with a vote of 294–134, including 78 votes from Democrats — more than double the expected ~35.

📌 The GENIUS Act: Focuses on standardizing stablecoin regulations in the U.S. Passed with a vote of 308–122, with 102 supportive votes coming from Democrats.

📌 The Anti-CBDC Act: Passed 219–210, with only 2 Democrats voting in favor.

Notably, the GENIUS Act is now heading to President Trump’s desk, potentially becoming the first major crypto law to be officially signed into legislation.

Crypto Week wraps up with a historic milestone: $BTC is back at $120k, and $ETH has surpassed $3.6k.

🔥 Top 100 tokens with the best performance over the past 90 days.

How many of these are you holding? ⁉️

🆕🆕🆕 After news spread recently that Galaxy sold 30,000 $BTC worth $9 billion directly, $BTC dropped, triggering panic among certain altcoins.

But is this price drop due to the news really something to worry about?

This event reminds me of when the German government and Mt. Gox sold $BTC around the $50K range.

From my personal perspective, market makers are taking advantage of this news to create fear and shake out retailers — especially at a time when the leading altcoin, #ETH, is showing significant strength.

However, starting in August, the $VIX typically rises by about 5 points, or roughly 30%, over the next three months.

History suggests that more turbulence lies ahead.

🚨 An Open Letter from Justin Sun 🆕🆕🆕

After wallets were frozen by WLFI, Sun posted a lengthy tweet on X addressed to the World Liberty Financials team and the community.

According to Sun, this freezing action was unreasonable. As an early investor, he joined in the same way as everyone else, and all participants deserve fair rights and benefits.

Such measures not only infringe upon the legitimate rights of investors but also risk undermining broader trust in WLFI.

🚨 BTC breaks above $114K – will tonight’s CPI shake up the market? 🆕🆕🆕

🟢 The crypto market has been flooded with green as BTC surged past $114K, ETH hit $4.3K, and BNB reached a new all-time high.

▫️ The main driver is seen as the latest U.S. economic data, with the PPI dropping to 2.6%, below expectations — signaling cooling producer inflation and boosting investor confidence.

▫️ However, the real spotlight is on the August CPI and Core CPI figures, set to be released at 7:30 PM tonight (Sept 11).

▫️ The numbers are expected to come in around 2.9%, slightly higher than last month’s 2.7%.

▫️ This is the most important data of the week as it will directly influence the Fed’s rate decision at the upcoming Sept 17 meeting. Currently, CME data shows the probability of a Fed rate cut has climbed to 92%.

🟢 The big question everyone is debating now: will the Fed lean toward two rate cuts or three cuts this year?

👉 The answer will set the tone for the market’s next move. 🤔
