The SEC Chair urged Congress to advance the CLARITY Act, and regulatory clarity expectations rose, repricing compliant platforms and crypto-holding public companies. As of 2026-09-23, COINUSDT rose 2.92% this week, MSTRUSDT rose 7.83%, and HOODUSDT rose 3.34%. All three Binance US-stock USDT-margined perpetual contracts gained, but the strength differed a lot.
| Date | COINUSDT open/close | COINUSDT change | MSTRUSDT open/close | MSTRUSDT change | HOODUSDT open/close | HOODUSDT change |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2026-09-16 | 171.16 / 166.43 | -2.76% | 128.55 / 127.82 | -0.57% | 109.26 / 105.95 | -3.03% |
| 2026-09-17 | 166.43 / 173.06 | 3.98% | 127.82 / 131.75 | 3.07% | 105.94 / 109.35 | 3.22% |
| 2026-09-18 | 173.06 / 194.54 | 12.41% | 131.75 / 153.24 | 16.31% | 109.35 / 120.03 | 9.77% |
| 2026-09-19 | 194.54 / 195.04 | 0.26% | 153.23 / 158.37 | 3.35% | 120.02 / 119.56 | -0.38% |
| 2026-09-20 | 195.03 / 195.42 | 0.2% | 158.39 / 156.55 | -1.16% | 119.57 / 120.1 | 0.44% |
| 2026-09-21 | 195.43 / 202.19 | 3.46% | 156.54 / 169.59 | 8.34% | 120.1 / 122.67 | 2.14% |
| 2026-09-22 | 202.22 / 200.62 | -0.79% | 169.6 / 168.09 | -0.89% | 122.67 / 124.03 | 1.11% |
| 2026-09-23 | 200.6 / 201.14 | 0.27% | 168.12 / 168.8 | 0.4% | 124.04 / 124.11 | 0.06% |
The key day was 2026-09-18. MSTRUSDT moved from 131.75 to 153.24, up 16.31%; COINUSDT moved from 173.06 to 194.54, up 12.41%; HOODUSDT moved from 109.35 to 120.03, up 9.77%. After that, COINUSDT held near 201.14, MSTRUSDT closed at 168.8, and HOODUSDT closed at 124.11. MSTRUSDT had the biggest weekly gain, while HOODUSDT was the steadiest.
On the weekly sample, COINUSDT has 33 weeks and 11 were stronger than this week. MSTRUSDT has 33 weeks and only 8 were stronger. HOODUSDT has 34 weeks and 11 were stronger. MSTRUSDT's 7.83% ranks highest among the three, but stronger past weeks do not mean the next week repeats.
On Square, popular posts argue that the SEC Chair's push on the CLARITY Act moves crypto regulation from enforcement toward legislation, benefiting compliant platforms and crypto-holding public companies (relayed, not this site's view). Some posts group COINUSDT, MSTRUSDT and HOODUSDT as the same regulatory-clarity basket. Others warn the bill is a process, not a result.
Three practical points. Gaps matter: MSTRUSDT opened at 153.24 on 2026-09-18 after closing at 131.75 the day before. High leverage cuts both ways, as the 2026-09-22 pullbacks in MSTRUSDT and COINUSDT showed. Funding fees keep accruing even when price is flat. The best week is a conclusion you only see in hindsight.
Binance contract default maker fee is 0.02%, default taker fee is 0.05%. The rebate ratio is 20%, so the effective maker fee after rebate is 0.016% and the effective taker fee after rebate is 0.04%. These three US-stock USDT-margined perpetual contracts follow the same tier.
