Fed Faces Transition as Powell Prepares to Exit in 2026

Fed Faces Transition as Powell Prepares to Exit in 2026

The post Fed Faces Transition as Powell Prepares to Exit in 2026 appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Powell to leave Fed chair role in 2026 but remain on the Board of Governors. Crypto-friendly candidates emerge as potential successors with varying policy stances. Governor Lisa Cook faces political pressure as Trump demands her resignation. Jerome Powell’s departure as Federal Reserve Chair in 2026 is setting the stage for a potential pro-crypto shift at the top of U.S. monetary policy, with market observers flagging BlackRock executive Rick Rieder as a leading candidate to succeed him. While his chairmanship will end, Powell is expected to remain on the Federal Reserve’s Board of Governors, continuing his involvement in monetary policy beyond his tenure as chair. His departure sets the stage for a leadership transition that will shape U.S. economic policy heading into the 2030s. Who Are the Crypto-Friendly Candidates? Several potential policymakers have shown a greater openness to digital assets than Powell. Rieder’s potential candidacy carries significant weight, as he has previously stated that Bitcoin could be part of long-term asset allocation strategies, and his firm, BlackRock, oversees the largest Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs. Within the Fed, Governor Christopher Waller has described crypto as a neutral tool, while Vice Chair Michelle Bowman has suggested staff should be permitted to hold crypto to better understand the technology. How Does This Compare to Powell’s Cautious Stance? This marks a potential shift from Powell’s historically cautious approach. While Powell acknowledged in June that cryptocurrencies were becoming more mainstream, comparing Bitcoin to gold, he has consistently urged banks and regulators to proceed carefully.  His departure from the chairmanship, though he will remain a Governor, ends a policy era defined by post-pandemic recovery and sets the stage for new leadership as many anticipate Fed Governor Foresees Continued Pause With Interest Rate Cuts in 2024. What’s Driving the Political Pressure on the Fed? The leadership discussion comes…

Through pullback US Bitcoin ETFs buy 3.6 times daily issuance as inflows streak hits four days

Through pullback US Bitcoin ETFs buy 3.6 times daily issuance as inflows streak hits four days

The post Through pullback US Bitcoin ETFs buy 3.6 times daily issuance as inflows streak hits four days appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs bought about 1,620 BTC on Aug. 28, roughly 3.6 times the approximately 450 BTC miners create each day. Per Farside Investors, net inflows totaled $178.9 million, the fourth consecutive positive session into Aug. 28. The supply side is fixed by protocol changes made in April 2024, when the block subsidy fell to 3.125 BTC, or about 450 BTC per day at an average 10-minute block time. The demand impulse is directly measurable in coins. Using prices near recent trading levels, the Aug. 28 net dollar flow equates to around 1,600 BTC purchased by ETF vehicles in a single day, while new issuance remains near 450 BTC. If that demand repeats over a span of sessions, it draws directly on the tradable float because ETF creations are backed by spot holdings in custody. Aug. 25 through Aug. 28 all printed positive totals, a sequence that coincided with a post Jackson Hole reset in rate expectations after Chair Jerome Powell said policy conditions may warrant easing, as shown in the Federal Reserve’s posted remarks. Positioning through the fourth quarter centers on two linked variables, flow persistence and price elasticity. A simple translation of daily dollars into coins shows the scale. At $50 million in average daily net creations, ETFs would absorb roughly 13,600 BTC over 30 trading days, 27,100 BTC over 60, and 40,700 BTC over 90. At $100 million, the draw becomes about 27,100 BTC, 54,200 BTC, and 81,300 BTC over the same intervals. At $150 million, the totals reach about 40,700 BTC, 81,300 BTC, and 121,900 BTC. A second lens fixes demand in issuance multiples, where one, two, and three times daily issuance over 60 trading days align to about 27,000 BTC, 54,000 BTC, and 81,000 BTC, respectively. None of these figures embed a flow-to-price coefficient;…

Why Infinity Train Deserves A Second Life And A New Platform

Why Infinity Train Deserves A Second Life And A New Platform

The post Why Infinity Train Deserves A Second Life And A New Platform appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. On April 15th, 2021, Infinity Train, one of Cartoon Network’s most innovative series, was canceled after airing four seasons on HBO Max, now MAX. Recently, fans have discussed the potential for renewal after the series creator mentioned pitching it to different platforms. Infinity Train Explained Several Children stand together on the Infinity Train, having completed a task to advance to the next cart Photograph by Photo credit is Courtesy of Cartoon Network Studios, Inc. Infinity Train, an anthology series set on a train with seemingly infinite carts, follows different characters who are forced to explore the various carts of the train, each containing its own fantastical environment with challenges and lessons for the characters to work through. Through each cart, the cast can learn lessons about themselves, unpack deep-seated traumas, and grow into better versions of themselves, which is the only way for them to leave that train and return home. Across four seasons, fans were subjected to heartwarming and tear-jerking scenes from the perspectives of multiple characters, allowing for a fresh approach to each season, with previous characters occasionally appearing to connect the overarching story. Why was Infinity Train Cancelled? The show didn’t lack dedicated fans; it had them. It didn’t lack compelling characters; it had those, too. Owen Dennis, a former writer for Regular Show and the creator of Infinity Train, has stated in interviews that the show was initially intended to run for 8 seasons, with the potential for a film if the series proved successful. Still, shortly after the Warner Bros. Discovery merger, Infinity Train was sidelined, as management’s push for their content to target specific audiences led them to believe the show had no entry point for children, despite its adult appeal through mature themes and storytelling aimed at kids. Since it’s cancellation, there is…

92 Crypto ETFs Now Await SEC Approval with Solana, XRP Leading Applications

92 Crypto ETFs Now Await SEC Approval with Solana, XRP Leading Applications

A total of 92 crypto exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are currently awaiting review from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), according to recent data from Bloomberg Intelligence, which cites ETF analyst James Seyffart. On August 28, Seyffart published a detailed spreadsheet via X (formerly Twitter) outlining these pending ETF applications, with the majority facing final deadlines in October, particularly those focused on Solana, XRP, and Litecoin. The submission rate for new applications has intensified over recent months, which could bring in capital into the crypto market and potentially mark the beginning of an altseason rally. Solana and XRP Lead Crypto ETF Race Among alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins), Solana and XRP currently lead the list of applications. According to analyst James Seyffart’s data, Solana currently leads with eight pending ETF applications, followed closely by XRP, which has seven applications under review.Source: The Block These two digital assets represent the most sought-after crypto investments beyond Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Bloomberg Senior ETF Analyst Eric Balchunas previously reported on April 21 that 72 crypto-related ETFs were under consideration by the SEC at that time. The current count of 92 represents an addition of 20 new applications over just four months. Similarly, the current pipeline encompasses proposals targeting not only Solana and XRP exposure but also various other altcoins, complemented by three ETFs tied to Bitcoin and Ethereum. Industry giants Grayscale and 21Shares are among the firms currently in the SEC approval pipeline, both pursuing authorization for Ethereum staking ETFs. Liquid staking received some clarity earlier this month when the SEC indicated that these operations fall outside its direct regulatory jurisdiction. Grayscale is simultaneously working to convert five existing trusts into ETF structures, including three publicly traded funds and two private trusts. These conversions would provide ETF access to Litecoin, Solana, Dogecoin, XRP, and Avalanche. In a separate post, Seyffart highlighted 21Shares’ recent S-1 registration filing with the SEC for spot SEI exchange-traded funds. https://twitter.com/JSeyff/status/1961178274316624248 According to the Thursday submission, the proposed 21Shares SEI ETF would track the CF SEI-Dollar Reference Rate in USD, if approved. Expert Opinion on Crypto ETFs Flooding the Market The pending SEC decisions carry significant implications for altcoin markets, which is a primary concern for traders and institutional investors. Andrew Jacobson, VP and Global Head of Legal at 21Shares, observed a shift in market dynamics, stating that while being “first to file ETFs used to be cool back when it started in 2024”. The focus has now moved toward product innovation, specifically those integrating DeFi capabilities to TradFi audiences. Bloomberg Intelligence senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas remarked on the growing pipeline, suggesting that “pretty soon there will be more crypto ETF filings than stocks.” Ray Youssef, CEO of NoOnes, recently shared with Cryptonews his expectation that major cryptocurrencies, such as SOL, XRP, and BNB, will attract structured capital investments due to their established infrastructure and real-world adoption potential. Youssef emphasized that market evolution will favor projects with genuine utility, predicting that “only the strongest projects with real utility and value would survive the next market phase.” While “speculative-driven tokens without utility are going to begin to fade into irrelevance in the coming months.” Regarding Solana specifically, Youssef highlighted the potential for significant impact from a spot ETF launch, noting that Solana treasury companies are lining up funds running into tens of billions to accumulate SOL. Current prediction markets reflect strong optimism for approval prospects. On Polymarket, the odds of Solana ETF approval before the end of 2025 have surged to 99%, a substantial increase from 72% in May.Source: Polymarket XRP maintains the second-highest approval probability at 87% on Polymarket, climbing from 64% on August 6. Notably, Dogecoin stands as the only speculative memecoin with favorable approval odds, currently at 82%, nearly double the 44% it was in June
