The US Federal Reserve (FED) announced its critical interest rate decision last night. While the 25 basis point cut was in line with expectations, FED Chair Jerome Powell maintained a hawkish stance. Powell said most Fed officials want to delay rate cuts. He noted that after two consecutive rate cuts, some members are inclined to adopt a wait-and-see approach, adding, “A December rate cut is not a certainty.” At this point, while interest rate cut expectations for December have decreased sharply, Japanese giant Nomura has revised its December expectations. At this point, Nomura said he expects the Fed to leave…

There is a big-money lobbying fight going on on Capitol Hill pitting banks against the fast-rising crypto industry, with potentially trillions of dollars at stake. The banks want lawmakers to broaden an existing ban on stablecoin interest payments in an upcoming regulatory bill, an action they claim will preserve their ability to make loans. According to an April Treasury Department report, up to $6.6 trillion in deposits could flow from banks to stablecoins depending on whether they are able to pay interest to users. In an effort to lobby the Senate, there have been a slew of online ads and…

The recent Amazon Web Services (AWS) outage that knocked out major crypto and fintech platforms, including Coinbase, Robinhood, MetaMask and Venmo, has reignited debate over how decentralized Web3 really is. While blockchains continued producing blocks uninterrupted, millions of users were unable to access wallets, exchanges and decentralized applications (DApps) because their interfaces and application programming interfaces (APIs) were hosted on centralized servers. “Decentralization has succeeded at the ledger layer but not yet at the infrastructure layer,” Jamie Elkaleh, chief marketing officer at Bitget Wallet, told Cointelegraph. “Real resilience depends on diversifying beyond hyperscalers into community-driven and distributed networks.” Elkaleh added…

Ethereum has been showing signs of weakness after failing to reclaim the key $4,200 resistance. Despite strong bullish momentum earlier this month, price action remains capped within a descending channel, and the recent bounce has been relatively weak. Traders are now watching to see whether ETH can establish a higher low or if further downside is to come. Technical Analysis By Shayan The Daily Chart Ethereum continues to respect the boundaries of the descending parallel channel, with multiple rejections from the upper trendline.

The U.S. government entered its fourth week of closure on Wednesday, exceeding its second-longest shutdown on record, and the crypto industry is lamenting the big-ticket items being affected, even if the closure of the federal agencies aren’t yet causing direct pangs. The closure of the government means the Senate is primarily focused on the task of re-opening it, largely shoving other policy pursuits aside. This period was meant to be the narrow window for crypto action in which the Senate had a shot at matching the House of Representatives’ Digital Asset Market Clarity Act to regulate the U.S. crypto markets.…
