Bitcoin repayed $ 100,000 for the first time over three months, showing a new strength after falling 32 % from the best in January. Due to the macro -tailed wind, including the tension of the coordination and the original change of the Fed’s tone, the brake out matched the wider risk -on shift and saw a better stock than the BTC.
Importantly, capital rotation to Bitcoin seems to be maintained as reflected in the realized cap to reach the new all -time high and ETF inflow over the past two weeks. In addition, the heated data has also been greatly reduced by losses, and more than 3 million BTCs have returned to profits. Bitcoin is now sat on a structurally solid foundation, with the rise of the rising spot volume and institutional led ETF. As long as the short -term dip, which is maintained in a macroscopic condition, is quickly absorbed, it can strengthen the rise bias and the BTC can deploy new legs with fresh highest.
Meanwhile, the Federal Reserve emphasized the risk of deer by steadily maintaining interest rates as concerns over inflation and unemployment rises. Jerome Powell emphasized the uncertainty surrounding economic prospects, pointing out that more data from the Fed is needed before deciding on additional policy measures. Despite the market expectations for interest rates until July, the Fed’s position still prioritizes price stability rather than responding to prudent growth.
In the energy sector, crude oil prices plummeted as the production target of OPEC+increased, but the prices of gasoline in the United States are still firm due to strict purification and seasonal demand. This divergence, which has a wider refinery bottleneck and crack spreads, suggests that the retail fuel cost may be alleviated only if the supply problem is solved and the oil price is low.
The UK-UK Trade Agreement has a decrease in some products, such as British vehicles and US agricultural exports, but economic relief is limited. However, this transaction lacks a comprehensive range of trade, and a wide range of trade issues remain unresolved.
In order to add to the economic burden, the US labor productivity has been reduced for the first time in almost three years, and the cost of the unit has soared and the deterioration of tariffs and trade. The business is struggling with increasing compensation costs and reducing efficiency unless productivity recoil or transaction tension is alleviated, which can lead to more stringent and hesitant investment if productivity recoil or transaction tension is not easy.
In the encryption area, new developments have a signal that raises institutional and government interest in the encryption market, but political and regulatory obstacles still remain. New Hampshire has become the first US nation that enacted a bold stage for financial innovation and enacted a law to allow investments in cryptocurrency and valuable metals. This movement reflects the increase in the national level of promotion of digital asset integration in the evolving national policy debate.
Meanwhile, Washington’s legislative grid lock continues. The US Senator did not narrow the genius law with a 48-49 vote, and the three members agreed to reconsider without voting. This emphasizes the current difficulties in reaching a two -party agreement on major economy and innovation -oriented legislation. In the private sector, BLACKROCK deepened the regulatory function through meetings with the SEC to introduce the stage King function and refine the optional trading rules for Crypto ETF. This meeting shows significant developments of Crypto Asset Regulation, and Blackrock advocates staying and extensive product features of Etherrium -based ETFs. It also reflects the changing regulatory tone as the SEC becomes more active in forming a digital asset space.
