Bitcoin reclaims $80,000, Ethereum nears $2,620 despite hawkish Fed, CLARITY Act setback

Bitcoin reclaimed $80,000 and Ethereum approached $2,620 as crypto markets recovered despite a hawkish Federal Reserve stance and uncertainty around the CLARITY Act.

Improving risk sentiment, cooling oil prices and short liquidations supported the rebound, while ETF outflows, elevated rates and regulatory uncertainty remain key factors shaping the market outlook.
