According to Cointelegraph, the layer-1 Sui blockchain has resumed normal operations following a six-hour network outage that disrupted transactions on the high-speed network. The Sui Foundation announced that transactions are now proceeding as expected and advised users experiencing issues to refresh their applications or browser windows. This update was shared on the social media platform X on Wednesday. The Sui Foundation confirmed the outage at 3:24 pm UTC on Wednesday, informing its 1.1 million followers that core developers were actively addressing the issue. However, the foundation has not provided details on the cause of the 'Consensus outage,' which affected over $1 billion in value on the chain and halted user transactions. The investigation into the problem began at 2:52 pm UTC, and the issue was resolved by 8:44 pm UTC, restoring the network after nearly six hours of downtime. This incident marks the second significant outage for the Sui blockchain since its launch in May 2023, with a previous disruption occurring in November 2024. Comparatively, Solana, another high-speed blockchain, has experienced similar challenges but has not faced any outages in the past 18 months. Solana has implemented emergency updates in the past to enable validators to better coordinate and address critical client-side issues. Recently, the Solana Status X account urged validators to upgrade to a new version containing essential patches. In the wake of the network outage, the price of Sui's (SUI) token experienced a brief 4% increase before stabilizing around $1.84, according to CoinGecko data. Despite the temporary spike, the token's price has remained relatively stable since the Sui Foundation confirmed the outage.

The Zcash Foundation stated that the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has formally concluded its multi-year investigation into it and explicitly stated that it will not recommend any enforcement action. The foundation said it received a subpoena related to "certain crypto asset offerings" in August 2023 and has now received notification of the case's closure from the regulator. An SEC spokesperson responded that the agency "does not comment on the existence of investigations." This closure comes against the backdrop of a shift in the SEC's enforcement approach towards the crypto industry. Over the past year, the SEC has dropped or terminated several cases, including one involving Coinbase, and investigations into some DeFi projects, a move seen as a contrast to its previously more aggressive regulatory stance.

With the Senate Banking Committee hearing approaching, US crypto legislation has entered its final sprint. The bill has now seen over 70 amendments, with disagreements rapidly escalating over stablecoin yields and DeFi regulation, drawing involvement from the crypto industry, banking lobbying groups, and consumer protection organizations. The Senate will vote on the amendments on Thursday. The bill aims to clarify the regulatory boundaries between the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), define the nature of digital assets, and introduce new disclosure requirements. Committee Chairman Tim Scott released the 278-page bill text on Monday, followed by numerous amendments from both parties. Some proposals involve granting the Treasury Department the power to sanction "distributed application layers," while others focus on stablecoin yields, which have become the biggest point of contention. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong stated that his Stand With Crypto group will score Thursday's amendment vote, saying it will test whether senators are "on the side of bank profits or on the side of consumer rewards." Industry insiders point out that while the bill still has momentum, its final direction remains highly uncertain.

According to Odaily, Federal Reserve official Neel Kashkari emphasized that the next Federal Reserve Chair must present their strongest argument, noting that they will only have one vote in decision-making processes.

According to Odaily, a recent report by J.P. Morgan indicates that after reaching a historic high of approximately $130 billion in 2025, the inflow of funds into the cryptocurrency market is expected to grow further in 2026, with an estimated year-on-year increase of about one-third. Analysts suggest that this additional capital will be primarily driven by institutional investors. J.P. Morgan notes that clearer cryptocurrency regulatory legislation, such as the U.S. Clarity Act, is likely to encourage institutional adoption of digital assets. This could lead to increased venture capital investments, mergers and acquisitions, and IPO activities in sectors including stablecoin issuers, payment companies, exchanges, wallets, blockchain infrastructure, and custodial services. The institution's projections are based on a combination of indicators, including ETF fund flows, CME futures implied fund flows, crypto venture capital fundraising, and Digital Asset Treasury (DAT) purchases.

Coinbase has announced it will not support the current version of the Senate cryptocurrency bill. CEO Brian Armstrong posted on social media platform X that the bill is "worse than it is in its current form," and that he would rather "have no bill than a bad one." The Senate is scheduled to amend and vote on the bill on Thursday morning. Key provisions of the bill include clarifying the regulatory boundaries between the CFTC and SEC, defining when digital assets qualify as securities or commodities, and introducing new disclosure requirements. Armstrong pointed out significant problems with DeFi and stablecoin yields, warning that some provisions could grant the government "unrestricted access to personal financial records," harming user privacy and potentially "killing stablecoin reward mechanisms." Sources say Coinbase's public opposition has "significant implications" and could determine the bill's ultimate fate.

A recent report from J.P. Morgan indicates that after reaching a record high of approximately $130 billion in 2025, inflows into the crypto market are projected to grow further in 2026, increasing by about one-third year-over-year. Analysts believe that the new funds will be largely driven by institutional investors. J.P. Morgan states that further clarification of crypto regulatory legislation, such as the U.S. Clarity Act, is expected to promote institutional adoption of digital assets and drive VC investment, M&A, and IPO activities in areas such as stablecoin issuers, payment companies, exchanges, wallets, blockchain infrastructure, and custody. The firm's calculations incorporate multiple indicators, including ETF fund flows, implied fund flows in CME futures, crypto VC fundraising, and purchases of Digital Asset Vaults (DAT).
