Nick Timiraos, the chief economic reporter for The Wall Street Journal and known as the "mouthpiece of the Federal Reserve," recently wrote that Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh is facing intense scrutiny from Congress. On Wednesday local time, four members of the Senate Banking Committee, led by Senator Chris Van Hollen, jointly sent a letter to Warsh, demanding that he publicly disclose all communication details with President Donald Trump.Earlier reports indicated that Warsh had maintained frequent phone contact with Trump since taking office, but the publicly available schedule from the Federal Reserve does not record any related calls during Warsh's early days in office. Lawmakers believe that this "selective transparency" could raise concerns about government interference in monetary policy.Kevin Hassett, the director of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, previously stated that Warsh has long engaged in economic discussions with Trump but claimed that Trump would not pressure the Federal Reserve. Trump later denied the related reports, stating that he had only had a brief conversation with Warsh a few days prior.Currently, the Federal Reserve has stated that it will continue to delay the disclosure of the chairman's schedule according to established rules. The market is watching to see if Warsh will provide additional information and whether this matter will affect public confidence in the independence of the Federal Reserve.

BSC and 0G ecosystem's largest AI economic infrastructure project NeoSoul today announced the official launch of NeoTrade. NeoTrade is a universal intelligent trading workstation for traders, allowing users to directly define how the AI trading Agent operates and put it into action.Most existing automated trading products offer preset strategies. Traders seeking greater freedom typically need to develop and configure trading Agents themselves. NeoTrade brings this capability into a product interface designed for traders.Once the Agent is activated, it can process market information and execute trades 24/7. Fund usage follows rules pre-set by the user, and operations requiring approval will wait for user confirmation; users can also stop the Agent at any time.NeoTrade continuously displays the Agent's operational status and actual performance. Traders can adjust configurations based on market results, making each outcome the basis for the next adjustment.Kaelan, co-founder of NeoSoul, stated that the next step in Agentic Trading is to transform tasks that previously required engineering capabilities into products that traders can use directly. NeoTrade aims to lower this barrier, enabling more users with trading judgment to utilize trading Agents.As AI Agents move from assisting analysis to continuous execution, trading products are also transitioning from preset strategy tools to configurable intelligent systems. Those who can simultaneously solve for autonomous operation and fund control are becoming key competitors in the Agentic Trading product space.

According to an exclusive report from "Du Jia," Xiaohongshu is developing a brand new "AI Shopping Guide" feature, which relies on a conversational interaction model to directly push product cards and attach order jump links in Q&A scenarios. This project is led by Daoxuan (Pan Boyuan). As of the time of publication, Xiaohongshu has not responded.Previously, Xiaohongshu launched an AI summary feature in store reputation, and this AI shopping guide is a further extension of its intelligent transaction chain. According to public data, Xiaohongshu has approximately 400 million global MAU, with 39 million users engaging in explicit purchasing behavior daily, resulting in 140 million active purchase requests, over 47 million users entering merchant live streams, and more than 170,000 merchant group chats remaining active. During the 618 period, the GMV of store broadcasts increased by 265% year-on-year, and note content drove transaction growth of over 210%.Xiaohongshu currently adopts a dual transaction model of "internal marketplace closed loop plus external traffic diversion," and there is still room for improvement in the direct order conversion rate within the platform. The launch of the AI shopping guide feature is expected to further enhance its internal e-commerce GMV and revenue.

Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong tweeted in response to the viewpoint "If you're in the cryptocurrency space, turn to AI," stating that this is a flawed way of thinking and a zero-sum game mentality. Brian Armstrong emphasized that cryptocurrency is a universal technology, an infrastructure, just like electricity or the internet. It does not compete with the next hot technology because it supports the latter. It is "both-and," not "either-or." Artificial intelligence, as a major trend, does not diminish the importance of cryptocurrency. On the contrary, it makes cryptocurrency even more important.AI agents require their own financial infrastructure, and ultimately their daily trading volume will far exceed the total of all human trading volumes. They cannot open bank accounts, cannot wait three days to receive remittances, and they cannot reside in just one country. They need real-time programmable money (which is exactly what cryptocurrency is). Agents need to hold funds and make payments themselves. Coinbase was the first to launch the x402 protocol, Base, and USDC, which now support the vast majority of payments for agents. Agents will also participate in trading and act as financial advisors. They will raise or borrow funds for ongoing new projects. They will also save users from the tedious tasks of tax planning, portfolio rebalancing, and bill payments.

CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler stated that the recently launched "Bitcoin Short-Term Holder Realized Pressure Model" shows that the buying and selling pressure from short-term holders is slightly cooling down, but buying power remains dominant. This model measures the changes in market bullish and bearish forces by comparing the realized buying pressure and selling pressure of short-term holders. During a bear market phase, this indicator can serve as a contrarian signal: when prices approach local lows, buyers are usually more active; when approaching local highs, selling pressure tends to increase. In the past 24 hours, the model has not shown any trend reversal signals. The latest hourly data shows that the buying pressure score is 28.57, slightly down from the previous day's 28.98; the selling pressure score is 22.62, a slight decrease from the previous 22.68. Currently, buyers are still leading sellers by about 5.94 percentage points.Overall, market buying pressure has cooled down, but short-term holders still maintain a buying advantage. Meanwhile, the funding situation in the Bitcoin ETF market has slightly improved. Following eight consecutive weeks of outflows, the ETF market recently recorded a net inflow of approximately $197.4 million. However, Adler pointed out that this scale is insufficient to confirm a reversal in institutional demand trends. Currently, the 30-day fund flow momentum for ETFs remains deeply negative, at about -$4.73 billion, and the cumulative fund size has fallen from a peak of about $62 billion to around $51 billion, indicating some improvement in short-term funds, but institutional buying demand has not fully recovered. Axel Adler expects that next week the market will face several important data and events, including further developments in the Middle East situation, the impact of the US-Iran conflict on energy supply, as well as earnings reports from major US banks, speeches from Federal Reserve Chairman Warsh, the June Consumer Price Index (CPI), the University of Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index, retail sales, and real estate market data.

Jurrien Timmer, Global Macro Director at Fidelity Investments, stated that Bitcoin is approaching the long-term Power Law model support level, or facing a critical technical test. Currently, the support line of this model is at $58,237, while $60,000 is seen as an important psychological and technical threshold. In addition, Jurrien also pointed out that due to the slowdown in global liquidity growth and speculative funds continuing to flow into technology stocks and other risk assets, Bitcoin currently lacks the macro catalysts necessary to drive a trend reversal. Although this model support level has historically become a market bottom multiple times, Bitcoin may still oscillate in this area for a while, waiting for a more favorable macro environment to drive a new round of increases.
