May 1 With Kevin Warsh expected to succeed Jerome Powell as Fed Chair next month, historical patterns suggest Bitcoin typically sees a few months of price correction after each new Fed chair takes office—followed by the start of a "true bull run." The market is closely watching whether this trend will hold, or if another dip is imminent. Meanwhile, the macro environment is sending mixed signals: former President Trump has already begun pushing for rate cuts. In an interview, Trump noted he’d be disappointed if Warsh doesn’t cut rates at the Fed’s first policy meeting under his tenure in June. Markets widely expect the Fed’s final meeting under Powell (this Wednesday) to leave rates unchanged. James Lavish, partner at Bitcoin Opportunity Fund, pointed out the Fed has added roughly $200 billion in U.S. Treasuries to its holdings over the past few months—signaling the official end of quantitative tightening (QT) and the start of "lightweight QE," a potential catalyst for risk ass

On May 1, Alberta Investment Management Corporation (AIMCo)—one of Canada’s largest institutional investment managers—disclosed in an April 30 regulatory filing that it holds $219 million in equity in a Strategy protocol. This marks one of the largest direct investments by a sovereign wealth fund in a crypto “middleware” protocol. AIMCo framed the move as a strategic play for Real World Assets (RWA) tokenization and automated liquidity provision. The Strategy platform offers institutional investors yield opportunities compliant with KYC/AML standards, while its governance and equity structure lets it benefit from transaction fees tied to institutional capital inflows.
