Trump To Attend Key Meeting For Clarity Act

President Donald Trump will meet Republican senators and senior advisers on Thursday to discuss the crypto market structure bill. The meeting will focus on unresolved ethics concerns and progress surrounding the CLARITY Act. 

Expected attendees include Senators Bernie Moreno and Cynthia Lummis, alongside White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt.

Chief of Staff Susie Wiles and Solana Policy Institute President Kristin Smith are expected to attend. The negotiations coincide with the resistance amplified by Senate Democrats after  Trump has been found to have cryptocurrency earnings and financial interests.

Critics are demanding greater protection against federal officials who are enriching themselves with digital assets and are controlling industry regulation.

The current prediction markets have an estimated 41% probability that the law will be presented into law by 2026. These odds have decreased by nearly 25% points due to political differences and congressional time issues.

Bitcoin and XRP Price Prediction: Key Levels To Watch

Bitcoin and XRP Price trends remain cautious as traders await fresh developments surrounding upcoming CLARITY Act discussions in Washington.

The Bitcoin remains trading close to the important support of $64,100 as larger weakness strained major cryptocurrencies in the most recent market session.

Holding this level could allow BTC to stabilize before challenging resistance around $65,500. The recovery can continue to reach $66,000 in the near term due to sustained buying momentum as per the full Bitcoin forecast report.

Nonetheless, a daily close of less than $64,000 may result in losses to the support zone of $61,800 to $62,000. 

Over 24 hours, the XRP price fell 1.37% to $1.10 as the market declined. Defending 1.10 may help in a recovery to 1.15. Stronger demand may push XRP above $1.20. A failure at less than $1.10 would reveal the support at about 1.06 during the ensuing sessions.
