White House Closed-Door Meeting to Decide U.S. Crypto Market Structure Bill
The White House plans to hold a closed-door meeting tomorrow to hash out the future of the U.S. crypto market structure bill. They want both sides to settle on compromise language by the end of February 2026, but there’s a major sticking point: stablecoin yield. That’s the issue holding everything up. The House already passed the CLARITY Act back on July 17, 2025. Since then, the bill has gone nowhere because the Senate can’t agree on a simple question: Should stablecoin holders get to earn yield? That’s the fight. Banks are worried that stablecoins paying yield threaten their deposits. Bank trade groups say that if this so-called “yield loophole” stays open, community banks could lose as much as $6.6 trillion in deposits. It’s not hard to see why. Bank accounts pay next to nothing in interest, while crypto platforms can offer 3% or more. People would move their money. Crypto companies see the whole thing differently. For them, banning yield just protects banks and kills competition. Stablecoins are a huge part of their business. Coinbase alone made $355 million from stablecoins in Q3 2025, and they’re on track to pull in over $1 billion a year. That’s why Brian Armstrong yanked his support when the Senate started clamping down on yield rules. Technically, the GENIUS Act already banned stablecoin issuers from paying interest. But now, the real question is whether exchanges and platforms can still share reserve income with users through rewards or incentives. Banking groups flagged this loophole back in August 2025, and now it’s the main thing blocking the entire market structure bill. Here’s how things stand: The House passed CLARITY in July 2025. Senate Banking put out its own amendment in January 2026, but talks broke down after the yield language changed and Coinbase pushed back. Senate Agriculture moved ahead with its version on January 29, 2026, but only with support from one party. So, the Senate still doesn’t have a unified bill. Why is the White House stepping in now? Simple: the Senate’s stuck, the bill’s stuck, and time is running out before elections take over. The White House wants to break the logjam by zeroing in on the yield issue, locking down the final wording, and getting things moving again. Without a yield deal, nothing else happens. No committee markup, no Senate progress. Even if it gets out of committee, they’ll need enough votes on the Senate floor—60 if there’s a filibuster. Plus, the House bill is broader than anything the Senate has proposed. So even if the Senate passes a bill, both chambers still have to hammer out one final version, probably through a conference committee. Getting the president’s signature is easy. Getting everyone to agree on one final bill? That’s the tough part. So, February 10 isn’t just another meeting. The White House is trying to force a breakthrough on the number one issue holding back U.S. crypto regulation. If they can agree on compromise language by the end of February, the bill moves forward. If not, everything stays stuck, and the market keeps waiting in limbo.

Trend Research is reported to have nearly completed the liquidation of its Ethereum positions on Feb. 7, recording an estimated net loss of about $734 million on ETH after a period of sharp market volatility. Earlier, the fund had posted roughly $315 million in profit by going long around 231,000 ETH at an average price of $2,667 and exiting near $4,027. However, a larger subsequent long position — about 651,500 ETH with an average entry of $3,180 — was forced to close around $2,053 as the market dropped, wiping out most of the earlier gains. Despite the heavy losses on ETH, some industry sources say Trend Research is not net negative across its overall portfolio, as it still recorded significant profits from other digital assets, notably WLFI and FORM.$USDC $ETH $XRP

Ethereum · ABC korekce je u konce — analýza objemu
🤑 Ethereum · ABC korekce je u konce — analýza objemu #Ethereum #ETH #ETHUSDT Podívejme se, jestli můžeme přijít na to, co se tady děje. Ethereum dnes vytváří skvělý objem, opravdu vysoký, alespoň dvakrát nebo dokonce třikrát více než denní průměr, přesto ceny nerostou. Co se tady děje? Mohu spekulovat, že se to děje kvůli masivnímu prodeji. Je tu spousta (špatně vedených) prodejců, ale veškerý tento prodej je vykupován. Takže ceny nerostou, ale ani neklesají. Objem stále roste a bude to obrovský objemový den.

Gold ($XAU /USD) is stabilizing after recent volatility, holding near the $4,900–$5,000 zone as dip buyers return and the U.S. dollar softens. The latest rebound follows a sharp correction driven by margin pressure and profit-taking, but broader sentiment remains constructive. Strong central-bank accumulation, steady ETF flows, and ongoing geopolitical risks continue to support gold’s safe-haven narrative. Technically, price action suggests consolidation within a wide range, with resistance near $5,050 and support around $4,750. Short-term swings may persist as markets react to Fed policy expectations and macro data, yet the medium-term structure still leans bullish if key supports hold and momentum rebuilds above psychological levels. #XAU #GOLD
