BTCCSquare news:

Stock futures dip as political pressure on Fed Chair Jerome Powell rattles traditional markets, with S&P 500 and Nasdaq futures down 0.5% and 0.7% respectively. Gold surges 2% to record highs as institutional investors hedge against potential threats to central bank independence—a dynamic that historically correlates with increased bitcoin accumulation by macro funds.

The TRUMP administration's probe into Powell's testimony on Fed building renovations coincides with a proposal to cap credit card rates, sparking selloffs in financial services stocks. This regulatory friction may accelerate capital rotation into decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols like AAVE and COMP, which offer uncorrelated yield opportunities.

Walmart's partnership with Google to integrate products into Gemini AI underscores growing enterprise blockchain adoption. Retail giants' AI integrations often precede supply-chain tokenization initiatives, with projects like VeChain (VET) and OriginTrail (TRAC) positioned to benefit.
