Regulatory backdrop improved. The White House cut a deal on an ethics package that had stalled the CLARITY Act, raising odds of Senate movement before August and reducing US framework uncertainty. Russia’s State Duma passed a crypto law classifying digital assets as property, setting trading and custody rules under the Bank of Russia, allowing cross‑border settlement, and banning domestic payments; takes effect September 1, 2026, with a 300,000‑ruble yearly cap for non‑qualified retail and risk tests for qualified investors.

Whales accumulated supply. Wallets holding 1,000–10,000 BTC added 66,700 BTC over 60 days after the sub‑$55,000 dip, the fastest pace since February, per CryptoQuant commentary on X. Value near $4.415B at recent prices. Sources cited in the article.
