On May 26, CoinShares released its latest weekly report indicating that digital asset investment products experienced an outflow of $1.47 billion last week, marking the second consecutive week of negative growth. This represents the third-largest single-week outflow since 2026, following two weeks in late January that saw $1.7 billion in outflows. Bitcoin alone saw an outflow of $1.315 billion, setting a record for the largest single-week outflow since 2026, surpassing the peak at the end of January. Year-to-date, Bitcoin outflows have decreased from $3.9 billion the previous week to $2.6 billion, highlighting the potential for a rapid reduction in cumulative holdings in 2026 during periods of heightened risk aversion. Ethereum experienced an outflow of $222.8 million, remaining roughly stable compared to the previous week. Other cryptocurrencies continued to attract some inflows, albeit at a smaller scale than the previous week: XRP saw an inflow of $31.8 million, Near attracted $9 million (notably with an asset management scale of $74 million), Solana received $7.7 million, Sui brought in $2.9 million, and Multi-asset inflows totaled $4.7 million.

On May 26, Reuters reported that Isabel Schnabel, a member of the European Central Bank's Governing Council and a potential candidate for ECB President, stated that even if the U.S. and Iran achieve results in peace negotiations, the ECB should still initiate a rate hike in June. She believes that the current energy shock has lasted far longer than expected, with damage to energy infrastructure and supply chain disruptions driving high energy prices into broader economic sectors. Schnabel pointed out that inflation in the eurozone has risen to 3%, with further upward risks still present. There are concerns within the ECB that high energy costs are pushing up the prices of goods and services through 'second-round effects,' creating more persistent inflationary pressures. She emphasized that the ECB's previous baseline forecast included two rate hikes, and a single action may not be sufficient to achieve the inflation control target. The market has largely priced in expectations for two future increases in the ECB deposit rate, with a roughly 50% probability of a third hike occurring within the next year. However, the ECB will not commit to a predetermined path and will continue to adjust its policy dynamically based on data from each meeting. At the same time, Schnabel warned that persistently high energy prices could lead to weaker-than-expected economic growth in the eurozone, creating pressures of simultaneous slowing growth and rising inflation.

On May 26, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman stated on Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global 'job apocalypse,' and that this technology has not taken away as many white-collar jobs as he previously feared. He mentioned that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company's predictions about the development of the technology were 'basically correct,' but their assessments of its social and economic impacts were 'quite wrong.' 'I am glad to have misjudged this issue; I originally thought that by now, the elimination of entry-level white-collar jobs would be more severe than it actually is. Now I feel I understand better why that hasn't happened, and I am obviously relieved about it.' An increasing number of global companies have announced that some positions within their organizations are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman acknowledged that while AI is playing an increasingly positive role in many industries and jobs, there remains an irreplaceable 'human element' in employment, as many jobs require interpersonal interaction that cannot be replaced by AI.

According to Cointelegraph, Stepan Uherik, the chief financial officer of SatoshiLabs, the firm behind the Trezor hardware wallet, is confident that it’s highly unlikely that governments around the world would manage to ban the use of noncustodial wallets one day. “It’s very improbable that all the countries would ban noncustodial wallets, or any other aspect of Bitcoin’s peer-to-peer network for that matter,” the CFO said. Uherik said that potential efforts to ban noncustodial wallets would likely be similar to certain countries banning things like cryptography or torrents in the past. “The adoption of these technologies continued unabated. In some sense, governments' attempts at banning certain technology are good marketing for said technology,” he noted.
