Trump to Announce Fed Chair Nominee Tonight Beijing Time
U.S. President Trump: Will announce the nominee for Federal Reserve Chair tonight Beijing time (tomorrow morning U.S. time).
Sources: Trump and Democrats Reach Deal on Funding to Avert Government Shutdown
According to five informed sources, U.S. President Trump and Senate Democrats reached a deal on Thursday to avert a prolonged shutdown for most federal departments. The move aims to defuse a fierce battle over funding for the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). This funding fight escalated after two U.S. citizens were shot and killed by law enforcement in Minneapolis. While funding for several agencies will lapse starting at 00:01 local time on Saturday, the impact is expected to be minimal as most federal employees do not work on weekends. The Senate could vote on the funding deal as early as Thursday evening. The House will return to Washington on Monday, at which point it must pass the bill and send it to President Trump for signature.

In a letter to shareholders, CEO Sam Tabar stated that as market conditions have changed, mining is no longer the most capital-efficient option.

ALT5 Sigma Announces Board Approval for Strategic Acquisition of More WLFI Tokens on Public Markets
ALT5 Sigma Corporation (NASDAQ: ALTS) today announced that its board has authorized a share repurchase program of up to $100 million.

Regulatory Policy
The U.S. Senate Agriculture Committee officially advanced the legislative process for the cryptocurrency market structure bill with a 12:11 partisan vote. This marks the first time the bill has progressed at the Senate committee level, signaling a new phase. However, as the vote was strictly along party lines without Democratic support, the bill still faces significant hurdles for eventual passage in the full Senate. Committee Chairman, Republican John Boozman, stated that significant progress had been made after months of negotiations and it was time to move the process forward. But Democratic core negotiator Corey Booker criticized Republicans for walking away from negotiations and accused President Trump and his family of profiting from the crypto industry while attempting to push a regulatory framework lacking ethical constraints. Democrats on the committee unanimously opposed the current version but expressed willingness to continue negotiations for a bipartisan consensus.
The bill still needs review by the Senate Banking Committee, whose version has progressed slowly due to more contentious provisions involving stablecoin yields. The White House plans to convene another meeting next week to coordinate positions among the crypto industry, banking sector, both parties, and the administration. If the bill ultimately passes the Senate, it will be reconciled with the version already passed with high votes in the House before being submitted to the President to be signed into law. Analysis suggests the legislative window is narrowing as the midterm elections approach.

On Thursday, Bitcoin’s price plunged to its lowest level since November last year, with the broader cryptocurrency market experiencing a significant sell-off. The decline was triggered by sharp drops in gold and stocks during the U.S. morning session, but despite those markets rebounding significantly from their lows, cryptocurrencies did not see a similar bounce, highlighting the sector’s relative weakness.
Matt Mena, Crypto Research Strategist at 21Shares, stated that it is crucial for Bitcoin to hold the $84,000 support level. He noted that if this support fails to hold, the next target is the $80,000 level where market buyers entered in November last year; a break below that level would imply a drop to the $75,000 low touched during the April 2025 tariff turmoil.
John Glover, Chief Investment Officer at Bitcoin lending platform Ledn, believes today’s selling wave is part of Bitcoin’s overall correction since hitting its all-time high in October. This decline could ultimately push Bitcoin’s price down to $71,000, a 43% drop from the $126,000 level in early October.
Russell Thompson, Chief Investment Officer at Hilbert Group, added, “All technical support levels have been broken. I think Bitcoin currently lacks support, and the price could fall to $70,000.”

According to the official announcement from JustLend DAO, this burn corresponds to an estimated value exceeding $21 million. Combined with the amount from the first JST burn, the cumulative number of JST tokens burned has reached 1,084,890,753, accounting for 10.96% of the total supply. This means that in less than three months, JST has achieved the permanent removal of over one-tenth of its total supply, demonstrating an astonishing deflationary pace. From a broader perspective, this burn marks a fundamental evolution in JST’s value narrative. It is transitioning from a governance token to an equity-like asset anchored to the growth of ecosystem cash flows. This process not only enhances the scarcity and value foundation of the JST token but also provides a clear, actionable path for the decentralized finance sector—one where…
