4E: US Stock and Crypto Markets Rebound, Focus This Week on US February PCE Price Index

2025.03.24 11:00:34

March 24th. Based on 4E monitoring, during the past week, the dovish remarks from the Federal Reserve and President Trump's statement regarding flexibility in the tariff plan successively boosted stock market confidence. After significant fluctuations, the three major indices closed up collectively for the week: the Dow increased by 1.2%, marking the largest weekly gain in more than two months; the S&P 500 rose by 0.51%, ending a four-week losing streak; the Nasdaq rose slightly by 0.17%, halting the previous four-week decline. However, large-cap tech stocks generally closed the week in a lower position, with Nvidia down by 3.26%, Tesla down by 0.53%, and experiencing a consecutive nine-week decline. The cryptocurrency market witnessed fluctuations but overall showed a mild upward trend. Bitcoin dipped below $81,000 on Tuesday and then rebounded. It surged above $87,000 on Thursday following the dovish comments from the Fed and hit a two-week high. After that, it oscillated around the $84,000 level. This morning, it experienced another rapid increase and was trading at $85,721 before the deadline, with a 3.18% increase in the past 7 days. Other major altcoins saw slight gains, with Ethereum striving to hold above $2,000, and the on-chain meme trend of BNB continued to attract attention. Signs of a market recovery are emerging, and investor sentiment is improving. In the commodities market, the US dollar index rose by 0.34% for the week, marking its first weekly gain this month. Tensions between Russia and Ukraine and in the Middle East continued to escalate, resulting in a more than 2% increase in crude oil prices for two consecutive weeks. Spot gold rose by 1.31% last week, extending a three-week upward trend. Last week, the Federal Reserve maintained interest rates unchanged, in line with market expectations, with the guidance for two rate cuts still in place for the year. Powell's remarks also brought some comfort to the market. This week, the focus is on the release of the Fed's preferred inflation measure - the PCE Price Index on Friday. Additionally, as the April 2nd "tariff deadline" approaches, market caution remains due to uncertainty. However, once the tariff outlook becomes clearer, the ongoing market turbulence of recent weeks may start to subside. As a financial trading platform that supports cryptocurrency, stock indices, commodities such as gold, and forex assets, eeee.com recently launched a USDT stablecoin financial product with an 8% annualized return, providing investors with a potential hedging option. 4E reminds you to be aware of market volatility risks and to allocate your assets rationally.

Cobo Showcases Agent Transaction 'Contractual Execution' Solution: Completing Multi-step Operations in One Authorization, Balancing Autonomy and Security

April 21 — At the "Decoding Web 4.0: When AI Agents Take Over On-Chain Governance" event, Cobo showcased its AI agent-focused "Contractual Execution" mechanism in a live demo session, highlighting how the tool works in real-world transaction scenarios. Built on four core components — intent, execution path, constraint rules, and completion conditions — the mechanism structurally defines each transaction, letting AI agents act autonomously within pre-set parameters. For basic use cases like token swaps, users only need to approve the contract one time. Once greenlit, AI agents execute transactions automatically within set constraints. When a transaction completes, the contract terminates and switches to a pending trigger state to avoid long-term permission risk exposure. For complex use cases like cross-chain bridges, AI agents can plan paths autonomously (including choosing bridges, executing routes, and more) and package the full execution plan into a set of contracts for use

Ripple Releases XRPL Quantum Roadmap, Aiming for Full Transition by 2028

On April 21, Ripple unveiled its XRPL Quantum-Secure Roadmap—an initiative to fortify the XRP Ledger (XRPL) against future quantum threats, with full readiness targeted by 2028. The roadmap outlines four key stages: 1. **Post-Quantum Recovery (Q-Day Preparedness)**: Focuses on establishing contingency plans to safeguard funds if classical cryptographic standards are decrypted. 2. **H1 2026**: Proactive planning and testing to assess quantum risks, plus collaboration with Project Eleven to validate NIST-recommended algorithms. 3. **H2 2026**: Integration of post-quantum signature schemes into Devnet, alongside exploration of privacy primitives. 4. **2028 Target**: Propose ecosystem amendments to enable a full transition to native post-quantum cryptography. Ripple noted that XRPL’s built-in key rotation and seed-derived key generation capabilities already lay the groundwork for this migration—positioning it with a protocol edge over networks like Ethereum when addressing qu
