The U.S. Marshals Service has chosen Coinbase Prime to provide a storage and trading solution for certain crypto assets the Department of Justice seized. That makes sense because on whose behalf do you think the wallet service is selling crypto when needed?

Currently, the Polkadot treasury has $245 million USD in total assets, of which $188 million USD are liquid assets. Since the start of 2024, Polkadot has spent $87 million USD, of which $37 million USD has been used in advertising.

Macroeconomics (July 1 – July 7)

The Fed Chairman, Jerome Powell, told Congress he was pleased with the progress on the inflation front thus far. However, he indicated he wants to see more progress before he is confident enough to start the interest rate cuts.

However, Chairman Powell continued to express concern about cutting too soon, risking the progress made in reducing the inflation rate.

Powell spoke at a forum attended by European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde and Central Bank of Brazil Governor Roberto Campos Neto.

Market Overview (July 1 – July 7): Major Bitcoin Transfers And Market Movements

Unemployment in the U.S. unexpectedly rose to 4.1%.

Non-farm payrolls increased by 206K in the month, higher than Dow Jones’ forecast of 200K but lower than the 218K in May.

The fact that the unemployment rate is headed higher despite the uptick in non-farm payrolls suggests that many people are taking on a second or third job to fight inflation.
