II. Industry Updates
Macro-economic Policies
1.
The US June jobs report showed only 57,000 new jobs added, far below expectations, pushing the US Dollar Index down and raising the probability of a Fed rate cut in September above 75%. This shift is bullish for crypto markets, supporting liquidity and risk asset flows.
2.
The Federal Reserve, under Chair Kevin Warsh, reaffirmed its commitment to a 2% inflation target and data-driven monetary policy, signaling less forward guidance and more meeting-to-meeting uncertainty. This increases macro volatility, impacting BTC and DeFi market positioning.
3.
Japan's monetary base contracted 13.7% year-on-year in June, exceeding forecasts, as the Bank of Japan accelerates policy normalization. Tighter yen liquidity and higher short-term rates may reduce DeFi and CEX liquidity, pressuring token performance.
4.
Italy's June CPI was flat at 0% month-over-month, missing forecasts and suggesting cooling inflation. This could prompt a more accommodative ECB stance, potentially boosting risk appetite and crypto market activity in the eurozone.
5.
The EU's MiCA stablecoin rules took full effect July 1, but Kaiko analysis shows limited disruption to crypto markets. USDT and BTC spot trading remain dominant, supporting stablecoin and token liquidity across DeFi and CEX platforms.
Cryptocurrency Regulatory Trends
2.
Ukraine has seized over $8.3 million USDT from an international hacking group, marking the first state-managed crypto asset confiscation. This signals stricter enforcement and alignment with EU regulatory standards.
