Fed July Minutes Released – Kamala Harris' Support for Digital Assets

FED July Minutes Published

The minutes of the Fed’s July meeting were released. Participants agreed to keep the policy rate in the current range. They indicated that they believed the upside risks to inflation had diminished. Most participants thought a 25 basis point cut in September would be appropriate. A few participants suggested that recent progress on inflation and the rise in unemployment could provide a plausible justification for a 25 basis point cut at the July meeting or that they would support such a move.

Kamala Harris’ Support for Digital Assets

Senior campaign adviser Brian Nelson said Vice President Kamala Harris plans to support policies that will help grow the digital asset industry. Harris’ team is reaching out to the crypto industry to learn more and address criticisms of the current administration’s regulatory approach. Crypto firms are heavily invested in political action committees, and some support Trump. Harris’ team said it is in the early stages of restructuring relationships with the industry.

Increased Activity on the TON Blockchain

The TON blockchain has seen a significant increase in active addresses on Masterchain, marking a seven-fold increase since July 2021. This growth indicates higher user engagement and an expanding ecosystem. This increase in activity is expected to increase demand for TON tokens, increasing their functionality and value. The network is notable for its affiliation with Telegram and the launch of several initiatives, such as the revenue sharing program and integration of Tether’s USDT into the TON network.

Tether Considers Launching Dirham-Pegged Stablecoin

The initiative is expected to improve international trade, facilitate remittances, and provide a hedge against currency fluctuations. The move is supported by a conducive regulatory environment, as part of the growth of crypto adoption in the UAE.
