    Crypto Green Ahead of FOMC, ZEC Activates Ironwood Upgrade, PIPEDOG Explodes From Nowhere to $40m+

    Crypto majors are green and rebounding ahead of FOMC; BTC +2% at $64.4k; ETH +2% at $1,910; SOL +1% at $74; HYPE +1% at $54.80. Top alt movers include Kaito (+9%), JUP (+8%) and UNI (+7%). Oil +4% at $83; Gold even at $4,030. Stock futures are mixed ahead of FOMC today; DOW -0.3%, Nasdaq +0.3%. BlackRock, Fidelity, and other Wall Street giants publicly backed the CLARITY Act, with BlackRock, Fidelity, Franklin Templeton, Goldman Sachs, and SoFi all urging passage, even as JPMorgan splits from the group over stablecoin-yield rules and the Senate’s window shrinks. Wall Street veteran Don Wilson said regulators are getting perps all wrong, arguing that crypto’s biggest trading innovation, perpetual futures, is being misunderstood by the CFTC and CME as they fight over onchain oversight. Ondo dropped its tokenized-asset blockchain plans in favor of a private, high-speed trading network, a notable pivot for one of the biggest names in real-world-asset tokenization. Ethereum startup EthSystems is betting privacy is the key to getting banks onchain, building tools so institutions can use public blockchains without exposing their activity. Michael Saylor called Bitcoin's code "a constitution," arguing that changes like BIP-110 are attacks on "economic rights". Morgan Stanley launched spot Ethereum and Solana ETPs under tickers MSSE and MSOL, each staking a portion of holdings and passing rewards to investors. 1inch launched its Aqua shared-liquidity layer publicly on 13 chains, letting LPs keep tokens in their own wallets while backing several positions at once, in what it calls the first “risk-controlled” DeFi liquidity venue. Russia charged Telegram founder Pavel Durov with aiding terrorism and placed him on an international wanted list, with the FSB alleging Telegram won't remove channels used to coordinate attacks inside Russia.

Oil -2% at $81; Gold -1% at $4,030. Stock futures are mixed as memory stocks selloff but others pump on strong earnings; DOW +0.7%, Nasdaq -0.9%. The US Senate put off the CLARITY Act for now, focusing its limited pre-recess bandwidth elsewhere, effectively confirming the crypto market-structure bill misses its August window despite weeks of last-minute negotiation. Circle bought nearly 1,000 blockchain patents from IBM, a defensive intellectual-property move to arm itself as stablecoin competition from Open USD, Visa, and Stripe intensifies. Kalshi and Polymarket won a pause against Minnesota’s prediction-market ban, a legal reprieve as the platforms keep fighting state-level challenges across the country. Fanatics bought a regulated exchange to grow its prediction-markets business, bringing the $30 billion sports-merchandise giant directly into the space alongside Kalshi and Polymarket. Kraken parent Payward acquired Magic Labs' embedded wallet business, absorbing a platform that's created over 60 million wallets since 2018, while Magic rebrands to Newton Labs to focus on its onchain-finance authorization layer.

Strategy overhauled its Bitcoin metrics to show net exposure after senior claims, pegging its “Net Reserve” at $36.6 billion once $22.3 billion of preferred stock and convertible debt is stripped out, and permanently anchoring the equity-issuance threshold at 1.0x mNAV. A $5 billion cluster has formed in Bitcoin options, which analysts read as a bullish setup heading into the Fed week. A US regulator warned prediction markets against cutting corners on event contracts. Russia’s largest bank, Sberbank, plans crypto trading infrastructure by December.

The CLARITY Act is expected to miss its window before the summer recess, with Majority Leader Thune saying he’d like to “at least get Clarity started” but conceding the August 7 deadline likely slips. Goldman Sachs CEO David Solomon backed the CLARITY Act despite the banking industry’s objections to its stablecoin yield rules, breaking with peers who’ve lobbied against those provisions. Brian Armstrong warned that if the Clarity Act doesn’t pass, part of Coinbase would have to move offshore. Coinbase opened AI agent payments to corporate customers, letting businesses accept money from autonomous agents. Uniswap pushed deeper into tokenized assets with permissioned trading pools, letting regulated real-world assets trade in gated venues rather than open liquidity.
