The Trump Administration's Digital Asset Working Group is set to submit its first cryptocurrency policy milestone report on July 22nd.
On July 7th, as reported by cryptoinamerica, the Digital Asset Working Group of the Trump administration is making intensive preparations to submit the first significant cryptocurrency policy report before July 22nd.
This report is the outcome of several months of collaboration between the working group led by David Sacks and Bo Hines and high-level officials from the Treasury Department, Commerce Department, SEC, CFTC, and other agencies. Its purpose is to implement the executive order signed by President Trump in January to enhance America's leadership in the cryptocurrency field. The report is expected to contain regulatory and legislative recommendations, but the specific content remains unclear. The original mission of the working group included formulating a federal digital asset framework covering stablecoins (as Congress has initiated relevant procedures) and exploring the establishment of a national digital asset reserve (established by Trump in March).

Institution: Market Not Alarmed by Trump Tariffs
July 7th. The analyst firm Jyske Markets holds the view that on the eve of the July 9th deadline for the U.S. tariff negotiations, the market exhibited a certain degree of nervousness, yet there was no panic. Jyske mentioned that investors began the week with a certain wait-and-see stance.
Trump declared that the tariff letter would be dispatched as early as Monday, notifying countries of new tariffs. Meanwhile, the U.S. Secretary of Commerce stated that the tariffs would not come into effect until August 1st. "Although there is some nervousness today, the market's response to the tariff situation appears to be much more relaxed. Therefore, it is expected that a panic situation similar to the one after April 25th Liberation Day will not occur again." This week, there is relatively light data, with tariffs being the main focus. (FXStreet)
