Powell disputes suggestion September rate cut was linked to U.S. election
U.S. Representative Mike Lawler asked Powell at a hearing on Wednesday: Would a September rate cut (currently investors believe the probability is about 70%) be seen as a political act to try to change the campaign landscape before the November 5 election? Powell refuted the above statement, saying that the Fed will make interest rate decisions when necessary. Our commitment is to make decisions when necessary based on data, upcoming data, changing prospects and the balance of risks, rather than considering other factors, including political factors. We have always done this, including in election years… Everything we do will be based on evidence. For us, it is inappropriate to consider the election cycle (when making interest rate decisions) anyway.

Regulatory trends
According to an official statement from the U.S. Department of Justice, cryptocurrency exchange and derivatives trading platform BitMEX admitted on Wednesday to violating the Bank Secrecy Act, saying that BitMEX willfully failed to establish, implement and maintain an adequate anti-money laundering program. The law carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison and a fine, and the case has been assigned to U.S. District Judge John G. Koeltl. U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said: As BitMEX founder and long-time employee admitted in federal court in 2022, the entreprise was one of the worlds leading cryptocurrency derivatives platforms from 2015 to 2020, but operated in the United States without any meaningful anti-money laundering program required by federal law. As a result, BitMEX became a tool for large-scale money laundering and sanctions evasion schemes, posing a serious threat to the integrity of the financial system. Todays guilty plea once again shows that if cryptocurrency companies take advantage of the U.S. market, they need to comply with U.S. law.
U.S. Department of Energy prepares second cryptocurrency mining survey, seeks industry input
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), which first attempted to investigate the energy use of cryptocurrency mining companies earlier this year but was stymied by a lawsuit, is now preparing to reopen the investigation but will first seek input from cryptocurrency industry participants. The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), which oversees energy statistics and analysis, held a public webinar on Wednesday to hear input from interested members of the public, including crypto miners and industry participants, on how to develop such a survey ahead of a proposed rulemaking scheduled for publication in the Federal Register, with more than 100 attendees.

Fox reporter: US CFTC chairman is happy to put the crypto market under CFTC jurisdiction
Fox Business reporter Eleanor Terrett wrote that U.S. Senator Roger Marshall talked about the power struggle between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) to determine which digital assets are securities and which are commodities. Marshall asked CFTC Chairman Rostin Behnam, Wouldnt it be simpler if we put the whole thing under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission? Behnam said, I speak for myself, but Im happy to do it. I think we have the expertise and the ability. He said, Under this system, some changes need to be made to the definition of securities and commodities.

Federal Reserve Chairman Powell said he had not seen any signs of Bidens mental or cognitive decline during phone calls or meetings with President Biden. The last time they spoke was more than two years ago. Rep. Mike Lawler asked Powell if he had any private talks with Biden since their public meeting in May 2022. Powell said, I havent met with him yet. He has no plans to arrange a meeting with me, and of course, I have no plans to do so. Its not surprising that there has been no meeting with the president recently, because the Federal Reserve is an independent institution, and Biden has always respected that.
Many market observers have blamed the recent BTC crash on selling pressure from Bitcoin mining operators, Mt. Gox refunds, and the recent German government sell-off. NYDIG head of research Greg Cipolaro said in a report on Wednesday that the above claims are exaggerated. He added: While sentiment and psychology may play a leading role in the short term, our analysis suggests that the impact of a potential sell-off on prices may be exaggerated. We are not unaware that there are other factors at play, but we can reasonably assume that rational investors may find this to be an interesting opportunity created by irrational fear.
Bitwise CIO: Bitcoin may reach $100,000 by the end of the year, and ETH will also hit a record high
Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan said that all the current selling pressure is a one-time sale, causing a short-term liquidity shock, and the seasonal period of low liquidity in cryptocurrencies is coming to an end.
In contrast, spot Bitcoin ETF inflows, Bitcoin halving, shifting political attitudes towards spot Ethereum ETFs, and the prospect of Fed rate cuts all create a better long-term environment for cryptocurrencies. Coupled with strong growth in the stablecoin market, Layer 2 development, and increasing involvement of institutions such as BlackRock in the space, the right combination of developments in the second half of the year could easily push Bitcoin to $100,000 and ETH to a new all-time high.
Vitalik: Ethereum network should respond to 51% attacks in a more automated way
Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin advocated for a push to make the Ethereum network better prepared for a 51% attack in his keynote speech at the ETHCC in Brussels. He believes that an automated response to such attacks should be prepared, which would reduce the pressure on the social layer.
A potential response to such an attack would be for honest validators to move to a fork of the chain, and current plans would rely heavily on social consensus, with community members working together to agree on a fork. However, he believes it would be better if the network was better prepared for such a response, which he says is largely automated and planned in advance.
