Economy https://twitter.com/disclosetv/status/1966226002314752189 Federal Reserve to announce interest rate cut amid economic slowdown, pressure from President Trump The Federal Reserve is set to announce an interest rate cut this week in response to a slowing economy, making clear it is not surrendering to President Donald Trump's demands. The Federal Reserve is expected to announce a long-awaited interest rate cut this week, responding to a slowing economy as opposed to yielding to President Donald Trump's demands. With a big decision facing the Fed, added pressure from President Trump isn't helping. Experts say his repeated calls for the Fed to lower interest rates are damaging the agency's independence and credibility, spooking investors and the market.

However, other industry executives are less confident. Several developments hint that the plan is moving forward While US President Trump signed the executive order officially establishing the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and US Digital Asset Stockpile in March, a formalized strategic plan has not been confirmed yet. Source: Alex Thorn However, several recent developments suggest that the plan is still progressing. On Tuesday, US lawmakers introduced a bill directing the US Treasury to examine and produce a report on the feasibility and technical considerations of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve. Meanwhile, on July 31, Cointelegraph reported that Trump's crypto liaison confirmed that the administration is still keen on a strategic Bitcoin reserve, despite only briefly mentioning it in its recently published crypto policy report.

In this must-watch episode of Holistic Investments, host Constantin Kogan sits down with crypto veteran David J. Namdar, CEO of BNB Network Company! With over 10 years in the game, David shares his wild journey: from pitching Bitcoin to Millennium hedge fund in 2013 (and getting rejected for lacking shorts!), co-founding Galaxy Digital with Mike Novogratz during the 2017 bull run, launching the 2nd Bitcoin ETF attempt (right after the Winklevoss twins), and now leading the charge in digital asset treasuries as CEO of BNB Network Company (NASDAQ: BNC).Why BNB? David breaks down why BNB is the "digital equity infrastructure" powering Binance's 290M users and 40% of global crypto trading volume – outpacing Coinbase's market share 8x! Backed by CZ's Easy Labs (largest investor) and Tangem Capital, CA Industries holds the biggest BNB treasury on the planet. Learn how this MicroStrategy-inspired strategy (but for BNB) could 10x your exposure without direct access to Binance in the US. David predicts BNB surpassing XRP by end of 2025 – and why tokenized stocks, 24/7 markets, and AI agents will supercharge BNB Chain over Ethereum.Key Highlights:

Here's what was covered:Macro Musings - With Gerardo in Costa Rica, Nick and Chris dive deep into macro events shaping the market. They cover the Fed's “nothing burger” July meeting and the odds of a September rate cut falling below 50%. Gold dipped below $3,200 on the news, but Nick sees the reaction as temporary. Copper also sold off after Trump walked back a planned 50% tariff on refined products—what Nick calls “taco-ing.” The long-term copper bull thesis remains intact, with structural deficits and demand from AI, energy transition, and infrastructure still driving the story. The team also breaks down the massive new trade deal with the EU—lowering tariffs, boosting U.S. energy exports, and repositioning America as Europe's key supplier.Market Takes - Chris breaks down why Bitcoin surged from $100,000 to $122,000: halving dynamics, M2 growth, institutional demand, and a supply crunch. Despite a Galaxy Digital selloff, the bull market remains intact. Ethereum is surging too—Nick is up 60% on his ETH ETF—and Chris expects ETH to hit new all-time highs later this year, triggering the next alt season. The two also cover the Genius Act, Project Crypto, and the rise of stablecoins like USDC and USDT—all bullish for Ethereum. Circle, the newly public U.S.-based stablecoin issuer, is highlighted as a prime beneficiary of the trend.Bizarro Banter - The Internet is ablaze over a hot chick in jeans. Nick and Chris weigh in on the Sydney Sweeney–American Eagle ad campaign, backlash from woke critics, and how a viral denim ad may signal the beginning of the end for woke corporate culture. American Eagle added hundreds of millions in market cap after the ad dropped. “This wouldn't have been controversial at all when we were growing up,” says Chris. “It's exhausting—and most people are tired of it.”Premium Portfolio Picks - For paid listeners only.

Galaxy Digital just executed one of the largest Bitcoin OTC deals in history—moving 80,000 BTC worth $9 billion for a mysterious Satoshi-era wallet. In today's episode, NLW breaks down how the market absorbed the sale with barely a blip, explores speculation around the identity of the seller, and examines what the transaction signals for sovereign reserves and institutional confidence. Plus: ideological divisions among OG Bitcoiners, estate planning vs. capitulation, and what this sale says about the next era of Bitcoin adoption. Enjoying this content?

Steeds meer institutionele partijen stappen in crypto. Dat blijkt uit een nieuw rapport van het Amerikaanse advocatenkantoor Barnes & Thornburg. In dat rapport zijn honderden professionele beleggers en fondsbeheerders ondervraagd, die actief zijn in de Verenigde Staten. Het gaat daarbij nadrukkelijk niet om een zelf-feliciterend onderzoekje uit de cryptowereld zelf, maar om een juridisch kantoor dat opereert binnen het traditionele financiële systeem. De respondenten geven aan dat ze cryptovaluta inmiddels serieus overwegen als onderdeel van hun portfolio. Veel van hen investeren niet voor het eerst, en ook niet op goed geluk. Dat suggereert dat het om strategische langetermijnkeuzes gaat, waarbij onder meer risicoafdekking en rendement een rol spelen. Ook biedt de institutionele interesse mogelijk houvast voor verdere groei van de sector. Daarbij wordt vaak naar de Verenigde Staten gekeken, maar ook in Europa en Nederland zien partijen de eerste bewegingen. De verschillen zijn echter groot: in Europa lijken de eerste instanties net wakker te worden. Toch is het beeld duidelijk dat de cryptosector wereldwijd serieuzer wordt genomen door professionele investeerders. Ondertussen kende Bitcoin zelf een onrustige week. De koers daalde richting de 115.000 dollar, nadat een groot volume Bitcoin op de markt zou zijn gebracht door Galaxy Digital, een bekende partij binnen de industrie. Volgens berichten ging het om 80.000 munten, een hoeveelheid die normaal gesproken veel grotere impact zou hebben. Dat de koers vervolgens weer snel richting de 120.000 dollar herstelde, wijst mogelijk op robuuste vraag in de markt. Daarnaast zijn ook altcoins in opmars, met Ethereum als koploper. Analisten zien dat de zogenoemde bitcoindominantie afneemt: het aandeel van Bitcoin ten opzichte van de rest van de cryptomarkt wordt kleiner. Dat kan duiden op een nieuwe fase in de cyclus, waarbij beleggers meer risico durven nemen. Verder stelt ECB-adviseur Jürgen Schaaf dat de digitale euro het moeilijk gaat krijgen tegenover stabiele cryptodollars. In een nieuw blog noemt hij dollar-stablecoins zelfs een mogelijk risico voor het Europese financiële systeem. Tegelijk stelt hij dat Europa meer moet doen om euro-stablecoins te steunen. Schaaf laat daarmee een ander geluid horen dan in 2022, toen hij Bitcoin nog afschreef als voorbijgaand fenomeen. Co-hosts zijn Bert en Peter Slagter, beiden analist bij kennisplatform Bitcoin Alpha.
