A newly circulated draft of the U.S. Senate’s proposed cryptocurrency regulation bill sheds light on lawmakers’ positions regarding decentralized finance (DeFi) and stablecoin yield, while leaving several critical issues unaddressed. Notably absent from the document is any guidance on whether public officials should be allowed to profit from crypto-related businesses while holding office.
The 278-page draft, released shortly before midnight by Senate Banking Committee Chairman Tim Scott, immediately drew fresh scrutiny from industry lobbyists and policy observers. The legislation tackles many of the unresolved debates surrounding crypto market structure and seeks to clarify the regulatory responsibilities of federal agencies, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, in overseeing digital asset markets. #defi #stableBTC #BTC $DEFI $BTC
Former New York City Mayor Eric Adams has come under scrutiny within the crypto community following reports that a memecoin he publicly endorsed experienced a rapid liquidity pull soon after going live. The incident has fueled investor unease and sparked debate among traders. Throughout his time in office, Adams positioned himself as a strong advocate for digital assets, frequently promoting his vision of turning New York into a global hub for cryptocurrency. He drew widespread attention by opting to receive his first three mayoral paychecks in bitcoin via Coinbase, earning him the nickname “Bitcoin mayor” among crypto supporters. The latest memecoin controversy, however, has cast a shadow over his pro-crypto image and prompted renewed questions about his role in the sector. #BTC #MEME $BTC $MEME
According to Hong Kong time, Bitcoin (BTC) saw a 1% rise on Monday afternoon, with its price reaching $92,092. The move came as escalating tensions between President Donald Trump and Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell unsettled investors, impacting U.S. stock futures and the dollar.
According to CoinDesk data, Bitcoin traded around the $92,000 level but remained within last week’s range of $89,000 to $95,000. During this period, Nasdaq futures fell 0.8%, S&P 500 futures declined 0.5%, and the dollar index slipped to 99.00 from Friday’s level of 99.26.
Monero (XMR) has set a new record, with the token touching the $579 level by the Hong Kong midday session, triggering a sharp rally across privacy-focused cryptocurrencies. Along with this surge, traders shifted toward higher-beta assets.
The steady but gradual uptrend that had been building over the past few months accelerated sharply over the last 24 hours. XMR rose more than 20% in a single day, clearly outperforming both bitcoin and ether during the period. Privacy-adjacent tokens such as Zcash and Canton also moved higher, extending momentum that has been building since late December as market liquidity improved and risk appetite returned.
The crypto industry has spent the past year doing everything it can to get market structure legislation passed. However, progress stalled last year due to the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Toward the end of 2025, the White House said the bill would be taken up for markup in January 2026 — and the calendar now reads January 2026.$BTC $ETH

This is a major escalation. Countries importing discounted Russian crude — including India, China, and Brazil — could now face extreme trade penalties. The objective is clear: cut off Russia’s oil revenue and redirect global demand. 🌍 Why markets are on edge • Global energy prices are already volatile • Trade flows could be rapidly disrupted • Inflation and currency pressure may spike • Geopolitical risk just jumped sharply ⚠️ Russia has labeled the move aggressive, warning of broader market instability as energy becomes a geopolitical weapon. ♟️ Big Picture This isn’t politics — it’s energy warfare. Tariffs are now a tool to reshape alliances, control supply, and influence prices worldwide. Oil, currencies, and risk assets could see fast, sharp moves in the weeks ahead.
