The Fed kept its policy rate unchanged at 4.25%-4.50%, as expected. This is the fourth consecutive meeting where interest rates remained unchanged.

The FED’s interest rate expectations for 2026 drew a more cautious picture compared to the previous period. While only 4 members thought that no interest rate cuts should be made this year in March, this number increased to 7 in June. On the other hand, 10 members expected at least two interest rate…

An attendee of Thursday’s Trump crypto gala dinner launched a Solana meme coin via Pump.fun amid the president’s speech—posting evidence of the action in a Telegram group. The token failed to gain much traction, however, topping out at a market cap of $450,000 before it crashed and burned, with holders who apparently gambled on the token’s prospects labeling the deployer a “scammer” and calling for “jail time.” In a video posted in the meme coin’s Telegram group, the attendee can be seen recording President Trump speaking to a room packed full of suits. The camera then pans downwards as they…

As of April 2025, only 40 of 138 jurisdictions assessed were “largely compliant” with FATF’s crypto standards, up from 32 a year earlier. “With virtual assets inherently borderless, regulatory failures in one jurisdiction…

He says the country’s regulatory environment allows real estate giant MAG to tokenize ultra-luxury properties. UAE’s Pioneering Regulatory Sandbox As the global financial landscape increasingly looks to merge traditional assets with blockchain innovation, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) is emerging as a clear frontrunner in establishing regulatory frameworks that foster, rather than stifle, this evolution.

The majority of TRUMP meme coin holders that earned VIP status for President Trump’s exclusive gala dinner held none of the tokens in those wallets by the time they arrived for dinner at Trump National Golf Course on Thursday night.  On-chain data gathered from Solana block explorer Solscan shows that just eight of the top 25 VIPs maintain a balance of the president’s official Solana meme coin the day after the dinner, with the bulk of registered addresses having transferred tokens to centralized exchanges just days after the May 12 snapshot. One of those eight wallets belongs to Justin Sun,…
