The legislation, known as H.R. 1846, the Federal Reserve Board Abolition Act, would dismantle the entire Fed system, including the Board of Governors and all 12 regional banks. If passed, the bill would wipe out the 1913 Federal Reserve Act, effectively erasing over a century of central banking in the United States. Massie, who has been a longtime critic of the Fed, said the central bank devalues the dollar, enables reckless government spending, and…
Jurrien Timmer, director of global macro at Fidelity, has once again drawn parallels between Bitcoin and gold, claiming that these two assets are playing on the same team. Timmer has compared how gold and its digital version respond to monetary expansion (M2 growth). The executive has noted that gold has had a linear correlation with M2 over the past decades. At the same time, Bitcoin follows a power curve, meaning that the cryptocurrency has experienced exponential growth during a period with substantial liquidity expansion. The comparison shows that the two assets indeed play on the same team, but Bitcoin tends…

Despite favorable odds for approval, the debut of exchange-traded funds based on the price of Solana in the U.S. is far from certain pending regulatory review, ongoing enforcement actions, and public comment on the multiple filings. A lot can change for Solana hopefuls before they potentially start trading. “Right now, the only thing that’s happened is they didn’t get a phone call telling them to go away,” Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas told Decrypt. The SEC began weighing applications for spot Solana ETFs this week. In this case, its deadline—which the agency has brushed up against in approving other…
