Why Franklin Templeton Thinks Wall Street Is Underestimating Crypto’s Impact Why Franklin Templeton Thinks Wall Street Is Underestimating Crypto’s Impact Some of Wall Street's largest companies are already beginning to make that argument for him. Robinhood Markets has pushed aggressively into tokenized stocks and around-the-clock trading, part of a broader bet that investors increasingly expect markets to operate more like the internet — continuously rather than according to bankers' hours. Coinbase is making a similar bet from the other direction, trying to expand beyond simply buying and selling crypto and toward a financial system where traditional assets can increasingly interact with blockchain infrastructure.

Why is Bitcoin US Dollar stock climbing today? Investing.com -- Bitcoin US Dollar rose +1.7% to trade at $77,960 today, propelled by a one-two punch of a less-hawkish-than-feared Federal Reserve policy update and a significant legislative milestone for Bitcoin in Washington. The Federal Open Market Committee voted unanimously to raise the federal funds rate by 25 basis points to a range of 3.75%–4.00%, marking the first rate increase since 2023, but the accompanying dot plot projection of a 4.1% median rate through both end-2026 and end-2027 signaled that further tightening would be limited — a relief for risk assets broadly. Adding to the bullish momentum, the House Financial Services Committee passed the American Reserve...

Fed Hikes Rates for the First Time Since 2023, Bitcoin Spikes The Trump-Warsh Collision The hike puts Warsh in an uncomfortable spot. Wednesday's meeting was only his third since being confirmed in May, and it delivers close to the opposite of what Trump said he wanted when he picked him. "I'm going to put somebody that wants to cut rates," Trump told reporters last year before nominating Warsh. He also encouraged Warsh to be "independent." Seems like Warsh ended up doing both what Trump expected and didn't expect: Being totally independent and increasing rates. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, a longtime critic of Warsh's independence from the White House, told CNN that Trump's own Iran conflict and tariff policies had backed the Fed chair...
