Federal Reserve Policy Shift: From Rate Cut Expectations to Neutral Stance
The internal debate within the Federal Reserve has undergone a substantial shift—from a focus on "when to cut rates" to exploring "under what conditions to raise rates." This shift was disclosed in post-meeting analyses, rooted in several regional Fed presidents publicly opposing language in the meeting statement that suggested "a rate cut is the most likely next step." Currently, Fed officials have adopted a neutral stance, mainly concerned that ongoing energy shocks caused by disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz supply chain could lead to prolonged inflation. This macroeconomic change poses significant headwinds for risk assets like cryptocurrencies: the prospect of sustained high interest rates will weaken market liquidity and suppress investor risk appetite. The debate over future monetary policy directions will be a key issue facing the new Fed chair, further increasing market uncertainty.
Coinbase Reaches Key Agreement on Stablecoin Legislation, Paving the Way for Senate Vote
A significant piece of cryptocurrency legislation in the U.S.—the Clarity Act—has reached a crucial compromise on stablecoin yield payments. The agreement prohibits direct interest payments on stablecoin holdings but sets important exceptions for "activity-based or transaction-based rewards." For exchanges like Coinbase (which earned $1.35 billion from stablecoins in 2025), this outcome is bittersweet: on one hand, it avoids a complete ban on reward mechanisms; on the other, it introduces a new and more complex compliance framework. The agreement clears a major obstacle in the Senate Banking Committee’s progress on the bill, marking an important step toward regulatory clarity for the U.S. stablecoin market—despite the high complexity of this step itself.
Report Reveals Iran’s Leading Exchange Nobitex’s Connections to Political Elites
A Reuters investigation uncovered that Nobitex, Iran’s dominant cryptocurrency exchange founded by brothers from a political family with close ties to Iran’s top leadership. The report details that this exchange, which handles about 70% of Iran’s crypto trading volume, is linked to sanctioned entities and has received hundreds of millions of dollars from wallets associated with the Central Bank of Iran. For investors, this news heightens geopolitical and regulatory risks facing the crypto industry. It provides concrete evidence that digital assets are being used to circumvent sanctions, increasing the likelihood of stricter regulations and enforcement actions worldwide; any platform found to have facilitated Nobitex’s trading could face penalties.
