According to ChainCatcher, some policymakers at the Bank of Japan are contemplating an earlier-than-expected interest rate hike, potentially as soon as April, due to the ongoing depreciation of the yen which could exacerbate inflation pressures. The policymakers face the challenging task of increasing borrowing costs that have been low for years, amidst global economic headwinds, while Japan's economy is just beginning to recover from prolonged deflation. The central bank raised rates to a thirty-year high in December and is expected to maintain them at the upcoming January meeting. However, insiders suggest that many policymakers see room for further hikes, with some not ruling out action in April, which would be earlier than the market's expectation of a rate increase in the latter half of the year. Sources indicate that if sufficient evidence emerges showing Japan can consistently achieve its 2% inflation target, some within the Bank of Japan may consider acting sooner.

Nearly 24 hours after the GOP-led markup on the Senate Banking Committee’s bill was pulled, industry insiders, lawmakers, and staffers are still processing the fallout—and many remain frustrated by the process, according to Eleanor Terrett (@EleanorTerrett).Sources tell Terrett that hope remains for the legislation if banks, Coinbase, and Democratic lawmakers can reach a deal on yield in the coming days. “All is not lost,” said one insider.The contentious tokenized securities provision, Section 505, now appears less of a roadblock. Tokenization firms suggest the language Coinbase objected to was taken out of context, while stakeholders—including Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong—say a significant amendment or removal of the section is possible.Ethics concerns remain unchanged, and talks between the White House and Senate are ongoing.Questions also persist about whether the Banking Committee’s shifted markup will affect the Agriculture Committee’s timeline. Sources tell Terrett the order may not matter: if Agriculture secures a bipartisan deal, it could ease the Senate Banking process. This mirrors last summer’s House experience, when the Agriculture Committee passed its portion of the Clarity Act 47-6, encouraging the Financial Services Committee to move forward even with less Democratic support.As negotiations continue, both the industry and Congress are watching closely to see if a compromise emerges to revive the bill.

From its initial role as an "efficiency tool" for optimizing Web3 development, AI has gradually given rise to an "intelligent ecosystem" with autonomous evolution capabilities, representing a profound paradigm shift.

The U.S. economy faces structural problems, including a disconnect between labor productivity and wage growth, increasing wealth inequality, rising debt burdens, and the dual impact of artificial intelligence (AI) technology.

The essence of current Web3 mergers and acquisitions is no longer just industry consolidation, but rather a pre-emptive move to reshape the next round of power dynamics. Assets are merely vehicles; what is truly being fought over is who will define the direction, who will set the coordinates, and who will generate consensus.
