XRP (CRYPTO:XRP) declined as investors waited for the US Federal Reserve's latest interest rate decision and developments on the CLARITY Act.

The token came under pressure as traders reduced exposure before two events that could influence cryptocurrency prices.

A more hawkish Federal Reserve could reduce demand for risk assets, while delays to crypto legislation could weaken investor confidence.

The CLARITY Act aims to establish a clearer regulatory framework for digital assets in the United States.

Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) and other major cryptocurrencies also traded cautiously as markets awaited fresh economic and regulatory signals.

The coming days could shape sentiment across the crypto market as investors assess both monetary policy and digital asset regulation.

At the time of reporting, XRP price was $1.08.
