JP Morgan expects Bitcoin market structure bill to pass soon

JP Morgan announced that the market structure bill for Bitcoin and crypto is expected to pass soon, and the Polymarket contract for Bitcoin price above $62,000 by April 20 sits at 99.4% YES.

Market reaction

The April 20 contract holds at 99.4% YES, with daily trading volume at $3,107. The market resolves in four days, and it would take $62,790 to move the price five points, which shows strong conviction among holders. JP Morgan’s statement about regulatory clarity likely reinforces institutional willingness to stay long.

Why it matters

The broader April Bitcoin markets remain bullish, with institutional activity shaping sentiment. MicroStrategy’s Michael Saylor and Binance’s Changpeng Zhao are both active participants whose large-scale purchases or inflows could reinforce the current price trajectory. Traders should watch for volatility as markets adjust to the new regulatory environment.

What to watch

The bill’s passage could introduce short-term price swings during the adjustment period, even if the long-term effect is bullish. At current levels, a YES share priced at 99¢ offers almost no upside, meaning the market already prices in a near-certain outcome. The Senate Banking Committee’s final reviews and any statements from Brad Garlinghouse could cause significant moves in related contracts.
