Top 3 Price Prediction: BTC, ETH and XRP retreat as Fed rate decision looms

Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple remain under pressure and consolidate at the time of writing on Wednesday after falling more than 3%, 4% and 9%, respectively, as the Clarity Act failed to advance in the Senate on Tuesday.

Crypto Overview: Bitcoin falls to $75,000 as CLARITY Act fails to advance – Pi Network, Injective lead losses
Bitcoin (BTC) price trades around $75,000 on Wednesday, following a 3% decline the previous day as the US Senate failed to advance the CLARITY Act to a cloture vote. The broader cryptocurrency market's risk-on sentiment eases, with over $600 million in liquidations in 24 hours, driven primarily by long-position unwinding.

The US Senate on Tuesday blocked further consideration of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act, with a procedural vote falling short of the 60 required YEA.

Ethereum buyers have been dominating sellers over the past few days.
