ChainCatcher news, viewed by Wall Street as the top contender to succeed current Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, former Federal Reserve Governor Kevin Warsh stated in a column for The Wall Street Journal that the Federal Reserve has reached the limits of its statutory and implied powers, surpassing certain long-standing principles and practices of central banking.The Federal Reserve's role in all economic policy matters within the government has become increasingly expansive. This all-encompassing and opportunistic expansion by the Federal Reserve has led to systematic errors in macroeconomic policy.Warsh believes that monetary policymakers should avoid discussing fiscal matters. However, if the Federal Reserve chooses to overstep, it should maintain consistency in its words and actions during both crises and periods of prosperity. The maintenance of the Federal Reserve's independence primarily depends on the Federal Reserve itself, but this does not mean that central bank experts should be treated like spoiled princes.

Currently, market liquidity is recovering, and downside risks are minimal.Woo mentioned that the mid-term target prices of Bitcoin at $90,000 and $93,000 have been reached, while the $108,000 target remains, with a new mid-term target of $103,000. Due to on-chain indicators showing that prices are high, it may be difficult for a rapid increase in the short term, and the market may consolidate or rise slowly. Additionally, new channels for capital inflow provide convenience for traditional investors, as these channels are recognized by banks and brokerage firms as collateral, avoiding the regulatory issues faced by Bitcoin.

ChainCatcher message, Synthetix stated on its official blog that, according to the SCCP-403 proposal, Synthetix has officially completed the transition to the 420 staking pool, and all old SNX staking positions have been liquidated as planned. However, most positions can still be restored. If users are historical stakers who have not yet migrated to the 420 pool, please make sure to follow the steps below as soon as possible. This upgrade will drive the Synthetix system to fully support future products, including the upcoming Perps v4 perpetual contract platform, automated Vaults, and other core features.Key rule explanation: If a user's staking position has a collateral ratio (C-Ratio) below 160% at the time of liquidation, that staking position has been permanently liquidated and cannot be restored. If the collateral ratio at the time of liquidation is ≥160%, your staking position can be restored, but the migration must be completed within 6 months from the date of liquidation. Important notes after restoration: The migrated staking position will retain the debt size at the time of liquidation, and users can repay the debt at any time to unlock SNX tokens; the new pool allows stakers to gradually reduce their debt within 12 months (subject to certain conditions). Specific rules and the sUSD staking reward program will be announced in the coming weeks. Users can apply to participate in the sUSD staking test.
