Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
US midterm elections could reshape policy for defense, Medicare, and crypto, with Senate procedural votes on crypto market-structure and data-center power-cost bills stalling ahead of the vote. The CLARITY Act (H.R.3633), a crypto market-structure bill, failed a Senate procedural vote on September 15 with 49 in favor and 50 opposed, while the data-center power-cost bill (H.R.9340) fell short of advancing on September 30 with 57-43. The House had passed the data-center bill on September 16 by a wide 417-3 margin, requiring regulators to consider grid-connection cost burdens. Neither vote kills the bills permanently, but the stalls signal crypto and data-center legislation faces headwinds heading into midterms. Watch for whether Senate leadership retries the CLARITY Act and how election outcomes shift committee priorities on digital-asset market structure and data-center energy policy.
