Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.

Democrats won control of both the US Senate and House in the November 3, 2026 midterms, shifting power over crypto legislation, oversight and regulation in Washington. The outcome puts the CLARITY Act, a market-structure bill that Democrats opposed while in the minority, at risk of being stalled or rewritten. With Democrats now setting the agenda for new laws and government investigations, crypto firms face heightened uncertainty over how digital assets will be classified and supervised. What to watch next is whether Democratic leaders revive the CLARITY Act in amended form or advance their own framework, and how aggressively committees pursue probes into the industry.
