Odaily News: According to data from Polymarket, traders predict a 77% probability of another US government shutdown before the end of January, with this probability increasing by 67% over the past 24 hours. Previously, US President Donald Trump indicated the possibility of facing another government shutdown caused by Democrats. This expectation has increased uncertainty regarding the legislative timeline for the CLARITY Act. Earlier, Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong and other executives withdrew their support for the current version of the bill. Alex Thorn, Head of Research at Galaxy Digital, stated that negotiations on stablecoin yields remain deadlocked, with no significant consensus on a compromise reached by either side.
