Bitcoin slips to $81K after briefly topping $82K on CLARITY Act optimism eyeing $85K

Bitcoin slips to $81K after briefly topping $82K on CLARITY Act optimism eyeing $85K

Bitcoin briefly surged above $82,000 on optimism around the proposed CLARITY Act but slipped back to around $81,000, trading near $80,572. The wider crypto market value rose 0.5% to about $2.67 trillion, with mixed moves across altcoins. Analysts cite regulatory clarity, strong US equity sentiment, and potential fresh institutional inflows as reasons Bitcoin could still test $85,000—despite recent volatility and notable Bitcoin ETF outflows.
