Although final passage of the CLARITY Act—commonly referred to as the crypto 
market structure bill —has been delayed in Congress, some experts believe its 
eventual approval could unleash an unprecedented wave of capital into the 
crypto sector. Trillions On Hold In a recent post on X (previously Twitter), 
the expert known as 360Trader argued that trillions of dollars in 
institutional money are waiting on regulatory certainty before entering 
digital assets. Related Reading: History Repeating? XRP Flashes Signal Last 
Seen Before Explosive 60,000% Rally According to his assessment, the CLARITY 
Act could act as the trigger that opens Wall Street’s doors to crypto in a 
meaningful way, potentially driving more than $5 trillion into the space over 
time. 360Trader pointed to comments from White House Digital Asset adviser 
Patrick Witt, who stated that trillions in institutional capital are 
effectively sidelined as firms wait for legal clarity. Large asset managers, 
including BlackRock, are often cited as examples of institutions constrained 
by the current patchwork regulatory environment. If the CLARITY Act becomes 
law, the expert believes the crypto market capitalization could surge beyond 
$4 trillion, drawing comparisons to the rally that followed the approval of 
spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) back in 2024. Catalyst For Next 
Crypto Bull Run? Stablecoins are another key element of the discussion. Under 
the proposed framework, banks would receive clearer authorization to issue 
stablecoins. The stablecoin market has already expanded significantly, 
reaching a reported $300 billion in supply in 2025 and processing 
approximately $33 trillion in transaction volume—figures that exceed the total 
throughput of Visa’s network. The possibility of major banks such as JPMorgan 
launching fully integrated stablecoins backed by substantial payment activity 
has been described as a potential turning point for the sector. The yield 
component is also drawing attention. Some stablecoin products currently offer 
returns in the range of 3% to 5%, compared with traditional savings accounts 
that average roughly 0.07%. Related Reading: World Liberty Financial Cites 
‘Coordinated Attack’ — But Are There Deeper Issues? 360Trader suggested that 
this disparity could prompt a significant reallocation of capital—potentially 
as much as $6 trillion—from conventional bank deposits into crypto-linked 
instruments. Pension funds, university endowments and retail investors could 
all gain broader exposure to higher-yielding crypto products. In parallel, 
traditional financial institutions may begin integrating decentralized finance 
(DeFi) infrastructure to enable faster settlement and more efficient 
transaction rails. Yet, the traditional banking sector has consistently pushed 
back against stablecoin yield structures, citing concerns about the impact on 
their deposit bases. This has resulted in the current delay and the ongoing 
White House meetings. In the expert’s words: …I&#8217;m bullish on CLARITY unlocking 
trillions in dormant capital. This could be the catalyst that separates the 
next bull run from everything we&#8217;ve seen before. Featured image from OpenArt,

US spot Bitcoin ETF flows turned green on Tuesday, with Fidelity and BlackRock 
leading gains despite persistent weak market sentiment.

Crypto investment funds have now recorded a fifth straight week of net 
outflows, wiping roughly $4 billion from investor coffers over that span. 
Related Reading: Bullish Signal? Coinbase Bitcoin Premium Turns Positive After 
Months In Red That steady removal of capital has been paired with a sharp fall 
in trading activity, signaling that many holders are standing on the sidelines 
rather than buying dips. Trading Volume Hits Multi-Month Low According to a 
CoinShares report published Monday, crypto funds saw $288 million in net 
outflows last week, bringing the five-week total to roughly $4 billion. Weekly 
trading volumes also fell to about $17 billion, the lowest level since 
mid-2025, highlighting a slowdown in market activity even as prices have 
recently stabilized. Fewer transactions were recorded across major investment 
products, reflecting a quieter stretch for the market compared with earlier 
periods of heavier trading. Regional Flows Paint A Split Picture Reports note 
the US led withdrawals, while parts of Europe and Canada added fresh money. 
The US recorded $347 million of outflows, while Europe and Canada together 
showed net inflows of close to $60 million. Digital asset investment products 
recorded US$288M in outflows last week.@Bitcoin remains the key proponent of 
this negative sentiment, seeing US$215M in outflows. @ethereum saw the second

23, 2026 Countries such as Switzerland, Canada, and Germany were among those 
adding funds. That split shows that not all investors view the market the same 
way right now. Some see value at lower prices; others are trimming exposure 
until clearer signs appear. Bitcoin Remains The Main Focus Of Selling Bitcoin 
accounted for the largest single-asset outflows, with about $215 million 
removed last week. At the same time, instruments that profit from falling 
prices received renewed interest, with short-Bitcoin products taking in around 
$5.5 million. A fair amount of recent liquidations was tied to Bitcoin moves, 
driven by traders who had large positions and saw prices move against them. 
Some positions were forced closed. That pushed volatility up in the short 
term. Ethereum and a handful of other coins also saw money leave, though a few 
assets attracted small inflows. XRP, Solana, and Chainlink each gained minor 
sums relative to the overall outflow. These were selective bets rather than 
broad rotations back into risk assets. Investment managers who moved into 
specific tokens appeared to be making tactical, not broad, commitments. 
Sidelined Capital Is Waiting Reports say much of the market’s strength depends 
on outside cash returning. Right now, many potential buyers are waiting for 
clearer signals from the macro side — interest rates, big economic reports, 
and policy hints from regulators. Without sustained buying, price bounces are 
more likely to be brief technical recoveries than full trend changes. Related

Than A Collapse This is not a market breakdown. It is a pause, according to

macro sentiment shifts and more buyers step in, flows could reverse quickly. 
Until then, expect choppy moves, low volume, and a market that reacts strongly 
to each new piece of news. Featured image from Vecteezy, chart from
