According to sources, the process of appointing former Fed official Kevin Warsh to replace current Chairman Jerome Powell is “at an impasse.” One of the biggest obstacles in the process is the stance of Republican Senator Thom Tillis.

Bitcoin spot ETFs attracted $1.32 billion in March while Ethereum ETF products extended their outflow streak to five months. The Ethereum pricegained 7% over the past 30 days compared to Bitcoin’s 2.7%, yet regulated capital moved in the opposite direction. The technical structure and collapsing on-chain demand suggest institutions see something the short-term rally does not. Institutions Keep Choosing Bitcoin Over Ethereum…
