The release candidate landed Sept 14 with a verified signature, and the final tag is aimed at Oct 10. Between now and then, node operators have to deal with PSBTv2 defaults, a rewritten HTTP server, and a transaction index that older releases can't read.

The CLARITY Act failed to clear a Senate procedural vote Tuesday, and the Democrats who helped write it were the ones who sank it. Here's what the 635-page rewrite actually contained, why the ethics fight broke the coalition, and why privacy lost no matter how the vote went.

Meta AI projects Bitcoin landing between $78,000 and $92,000 by the end of 2026, with $85,000 as the base case. A Senate vote this week and a single day of ETF flows are the triggers that make the next three months unusually important.

The U.S. Department of Justice filed to forfeit $61 million in crypto tied to Iranian oil sales allegedly laundered through Binance accounts. But the $1.5 billion prosecutors say Iran actually moved tells the real story about why bitcoin, not Tether, has become the sanction-evasion tool of choice.

Polymarket cut the CLARITY Act's odds of becoming law to under 20% on Tuesday, down from roughly 34% a day earlier. The Sept. 15 cloture vote needs 60 votes the bill's backers don't have, and XRP's $2 ceiling now rides on the same outcome.
