Invesco’s latest survey shows that sovereign investors—covering 90 sovereign wealth funds and 54 central banks with a combined $29 trillion in assets under management—are systematically restructuring their investment portfolios, shifting focus to energy and physical assets. Around 80% of surveyed institutions view energy security and energy transition infrastructure as the top priorities for enhancing portfolio resilience, with infrastructure asset allocations rising to 9%. The high energy demand of AI has further boosted the appeal of energy-related assets. On the U.S. dollar credit crisis front, 61% of surveyed central banks believe the U.S. debt level is eroding the dollar’s long-term reserve status, a sharp jump from 20% in 2024; 29% expect the dollar’s reserve currency status to weaken within five years, up from 12% in 2022. Some institutions have begun reducing reliance on U.S. custodians and clearing systems: one European central bank has completed switching its U.S.-affiliated custodian, while a Latin American central bank admitted it is establishing non-U.S. custodian relationships for "extreme scenarios". Additionally, around one-third of surveyed institutions plan to increase their gold reserves. Invesco’s Head of Research noted, “Resilience is evolving from a bonus to a necessity.”

The Bank for International Settlements (BIS) released its 2026 annual economic report on Sunday at its annual general meeting in Basel, delivering a systematic critique of stablecoins. The report argues that existing stablecoins have significant flaws across four core monetary attributes: singularity, resilience, interoperability, and integrity. Their prices often deviate from their pegged values, redemption processes are fraught with frictions, and they function more like ETF shares than legitimate payment tools. As of the end of May, the total market capitalization of stablecoins stood at roughly $320 billion, with over 99% pegged to the U.S. dollar, and USDT and USDC collectively holding dominant market share. BIS model calculations show that even if stablecoin market cap expands to $1 trillion to $3 trillion, its net impact on economic output would be negligible, or even slightly negative, as it would drive up bank funding costs and reduce lending capacity. The report also specifically warns against the risk of "stablecoin dollarization": if residents of emerging economies use U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoins as a store of value, it would disrupt domestic capital flows and erode monetary sovereignty. The BIS once again advocates for a tokenized "unified ledger" scheme pegged to central bank money, citing the Agora cross-border payment project—which involves eight central banks and over 40 private sector institutions—as evidence of its feasibility.

Binance founder CZ recently sat down for an exclusive interview with CoinDesk, sharing his views on a range of topics. CZ attributed the 2026 crypto bear market to the convergence of three factors: capital flowing into the AI sector, geopolitical tensions, and the four-year crypto market cycle pattern. Regarding Binance.US’s strategy, CZ said he wants the platform to access Binance Global’s liquidity to boost its competitiveness in the U.S. market. He also revealed that while his recent trip to Washington D.C. was aimed at clarifying "misunderstandings" about himself and Binance, he believes his guilty plea for violating banking secrecy laws did not harm his business reputation. CZ made it clear that he will not retake the helm of a crypto trading platform, and prefers to participate in the operations of his portfolio companies as an informal advisor. On crypto regulatory legislation, negotiations on the U.S. Clarity Act are still ongoing, but disagreements over core ethical provisions remain unresolved, and any deal will require presidential signature and endorsement. The Senate has only 20 working days left before September 1, narrowing the legislative window further.
