According to White House crypto advisor Patrick Witt, the CLARITY Act could pass by July 4, 2026. Witt also stated that an announcement for the operational and legal framework of a US Bitcoin Strategic Reserve could happen within weeks. The announcement will likely expand upon the executive order President Trump signed in March 2025, just weeks after assuming office.🇺🇸HUGE: White House crypto advisor Patrick Witt says Bitcoin Strategic Reserve announcement is coming within "weeks” while a the target to pass the CLARITY Act is July 4th. pic.twitter.com/2qzmYBFgg8— Coin Bureau (@coinbureau) May 7, 2026Will Bitcoin Rally If The CLARITY Act And US Strategic Reserve Is Created?Source: MoonCatcherMemeAs the name suggests, the CLARITY Act aims to bring much-needed clarity to the budding industry. It aims to put in place a rulebook to not only govern the crypto landscape, but also designate which asset falls under which jurisdiction. It will clarify whether the SEC or the CFTC is in charge of a particular asset. Earlier this year, the SEC and CFTC put out a joint statement which classified Bitcoin (BTC) and some other cryptocurrencies as digital commodities.

#HTX Community April Creation Contest Bitcoin lenders say institutions want crypto credit to look more like TradFi

Bitcoin lenders may need to become more like traditional finance firms, not less, if they want institutional capital to keep flowing into the sector.

At Consensus 2026 in Miami, Alexander Blume, founder and CEO of institutional bitcoin lender Two Prime, argued that the next stage of crypto credit growth will depend less on decentralized finance experimentation and more on standardization, transparency, and risk management.

“The moment you start trying to explain how any of this stuff works, they're just like, No... We'll pay more. Don't lose my money,” Blume said, referring to institutional borrowers evaluating crypto lending products that become difficult to defend during periods of market stress.

The comments reflected a broader post-2022 shift in crypto lending following the collapses of Celsius, Voyager, and BlockFi, when opaque leverage, aggressive rehypothecation, and weak risk controls triggered a wider credit crisis across the industry. In the years since, many institutional borrowers have moved away from complex DeFi structures in favor of products centered on transparent custody, standardized contracts, and clearly identifiable counterparties.

Across the panel, speakers repeatedly suggested that institutional finance and crypto-native finance remain fundamentally misaligned in their approaches to risk. While DeFi evolved around permissionless access, composability, and capital efficiency, institutions continue to prioritize predictability, legal accountability, and operational simplicity.

That tension was especially visible in the discussion around rehypothecation, the practice of reusing customer collateral to generate additional yield, which became one of the defining risks exposed during the 2022 lending collapse.

“The most important thing to ask... is where is your Bitcoin stored,” said Adam Reeds, co-founder and CEO of Ledn.

HTX  Creation Challenge — Post and Win 1,500U 💥

Coinbase has expanded its derivatives lineup with gold futures and silver contracts, giving eligible traders access to precious metals through a crypto-native market structure. The move adds traditional store-of-value assets to a platform already built around nonstop trading.

Gold and silver perpetual futures now live

Eligible traders outside the US can now trade gold and silver perpetual contracts on Coinbase. Institutions can access them through Coinbase International Exchange, while retail traders can use coinbase.com and the Coinbase app in supported jurisdictions.

Moreover, the new products are designed for 24/7 commodity exposure with capital efficiency similar to crypto derivatives. GOLD-PERP tracks the spot price of 1 troy ounce of gold, while SILVER-PERP references 1 troy ounce of silver.

Both products are perpetual, so they have no expiry or rollover. In addition, PnL is realized directly in USDC, and traders can use 24/7/365 access, excluding scheduled maintenance, low minimum order sizes and up to 25x maximum leverage.

That said, Coinbase also frames the launch as part of a broader push toward an

Super Micro Computers (SCMI) just reported strong quarterly earnings this week, sending its stock on a 16% rally to open Wednesday trading. The server maker posted improved margins in its fiscal third quarter and projected revenue above Wall Street expectations, driven by sustained strong demand for artificial intelligence data center infrastructure. After a slow start to the year, the stock is now up 7% in 2026.The company posted an adjusted gross margin of 10.1% in the fiscal third quarter, which topped analysts’ estimates of 6.75%. SCMI also sees fourth quarter net sales of $11 billion to $12.5 billion, beating a consensus estimate of $11.16 billion. Super Micro Computer’s strong earnings beat and raised guidance, combined with its strategic positioning between NVIDIA’s (NVDA) GPUs and hyperscale customers demanding more AI compute capacity, are driving the share-price rally.Super Micro stock (SCMI) had a rough start to 2026 due to a plethora of controversies. In March, US prosecutors accused Supermicro co-founder Yih-Shyan “Wally” Liaw of unlawfully rerouting billions of dollars’ worth of Nvidia-based servers to China, allegedly in breach of US export control regulations. The company also faced headwinds tied to accounting and governance concerns. The stock was down roughly 4% year to date before Wednesday’s market open.

Zcash (ZEC) has had a spectacular surge, jumping more than 40% in price between 592 USD and 606 USD within 24 hours. Led by DASH's amazing 66% surge, this rebound is element of a larger trend in the privacy coin market. The main impetus seems to be a huge capital shift into privacy-centric crypto assets as fears about quantum computing dangers resurface in the wake of a string of high-profile DeFi breaches. Investors are increasingly flocking to Zcash for its battle-tested zk-SNARKs technology, which provides robust, shielded transactions that are seen as a vital defense in an evolving threat landscape. The rise is fueled by a combination of institutional support and greater retail availability. Zcash's recent listing on Robinhood has cleared the way for a fresh wave of retail investors, and Foundry has strengthened the network's architecture by providing full mining support. Moreover, heavyweight venture companies Paradigm and a16z effectively obtained 25 million USD in finance for the Zcash Open Development Lab (ZODL). This investment is set aside for the creation of cutting-edge wallet technologies and privacy tools, therefore reinforcing Zcash's leadership in the encrypted financial market. Technically and strategically, Zcash is setting itself up for long-term resiliency. Recently, the project published a strategic roadmap aimed at improving scalability and post-quantum security, therefore proactively tackling the exact threats now fueling market concern. ZEC is now watching substantial resistance levels between 612 and 680 USD, with trade volumes reaching over 1.3 billion USD and the overall market capitalization reaching 8.7 billion USD. Although regulatory examination continues to be a concern, Zcash's

#Colombian President Gustavo Petro said the country's Caribbean coast could become a Bitcoin mining hub if it uses clean energy and brings local communities into the plan.
Summary Petro says Colombia's Caribbean coast could use renewable energy to attract Bitcoin mining investment soon. The plan mentions Wayúu co-ownership, but no mining partner or launch date has been confirmed. Paraguay's hydro-powered mining growth gives Colombia a model as political timing creates fresh doubts ahead.
Petro pointed to Barranquilla, Santa Marta, and Riohacha as possible sites. He said the region could follow countries such as Venezuela and Paraguay, where low-cost energy has attracted Bitcoin mining investment. Petro made the comments in a post on X while responding to a discussion on Bitcoin mining in South America. He said the Caribbean region could receive "an immense boost" from mining tied to renewable energy.

He said the Indigenous group should be involved as possible co-owners of future projects. The Wayúu mainly live in La Guajira, where Colombia has strong wind and solar resources. Paraguay model draws attention Petro's remarks referred to Paraguay's growing role in Bitcoin mining.
The country has used surplus hydroelectric power to attract miners, including large firms building sites near the Itaipu dam. As featured in earlier coverage, HIVE Digital acquired Bitfarms' 200 MW hydro-powered Yguazú site in Paraguay for $56 million. The company said the deal lifted its planned Paraguay mining infrastructure to 300 MW.
That deal shows why energy-rich countries have become more attractive to Bitcoin miners. Mining firms often seek cheap and steady power, while host countries look for ways to turn unused electricity into revenue.
Colombia's renewable base supports the proposal Colombia already gets a large share of its elec
