On May 11, Morgan Stanley strategists stated in a report that if risk appetite improves, the dollar may weaken in the coming months. They noted that positive risk sentiment, bolstered by strong earnings in the U.S. stock market, has room to drive the dollar lower. However, they emphasized that this view is contingent on upcoming U.S. data not being too weak to lead to downward revisions in earnings expectations, nor too strong to spark discussions about Federal Reserve interest rate hikes. Otherwise, the dollar is expected to benefit from the narrowing interest rate differential between the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank. The DXY dollar index closed flat at 97.903, with Morgan Stanley forecasting the index to reach 95.000.

On May 11, the Solana core development team Anza announced that a major upgrade to the consensus mechanism named 'Alpenglow' has officially begun running on the community test network, marking the entry of the largest consensus architecture change in Solana's history into the practical testing phase. This upgrade allows validators to test the migration process from the current hybrid mechanism based on Proof-of-History (PoH) and TowerBFT to a new architecture in a real node environment. Developers refer to this transition process as 'Alpenswitch,' which means that validator nodes can smoothly transition to the new consensus system in the testing environment. The existing Solana architecture operates through the PoH timestamp mechanism and TowerBFT voting mechanism, excelling in high throughput and low fees, but has faced congestion and downtime issues during periods of high network load. The core goal of Alpenglow is to restructure the communication and block confirmation logic among validators to significantly enhance network response efficiency and reduce final confirmation times. Developers indicate that this mechanism is expected to shorten transaction final confirmation times from several seconds to near real-time levels. Solana co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko previously stated at Consensus Miami 2026 that if testing progresses smoothly, Alpenglow could potentially launch on the mainnet as early as next quarter. With the launch of the community test network, this upgrade has entered a critical validation phase, and the future performance and stability of the Solana network are now receiving significant market attention.

On the eve of a crucial vote by the Senate Banking Committee on comprehensive cryptocurrency legislation, American Bankers Association (ABA) CEO Rob Nichols issued an urgent letter to bank executives, calling for immediate outreach to senators to pressure for revisions to stablecoin-related provisions. The current draft fails to effectively prevent crypto firms from attracting stablecoin deposits through 'interest-like rewards,' which could lead to a massive shift of bank deposits to stablecoins, threatening economic growth and financial stability. He stated in the letter that this is 'an urgent advocacy battle that requires immediate action.' The Senate Banking Committee is expected to review and vote on the bill this Thursday, with the regulatory boundaries surrounding stablecoin yield mechanisms remaining one of the biggest points of contention.

On May 11, CNN reported that Iranian state media stated that Iran is demanding sovereignty over the Strait of Hormuz in response to the United States' proposal to end the war. According to the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, a country has 'sovereign rights' to explore, develop, protect, and manage marine resources within its exclusive economic zone. However, 'all ships of all nations, whether coastal or landlocked, enjoy the right of innocent passage through the territorial sea.' The convention indicates that coastal states should not 'hamper the normal passage of foreign vessels in their territorial sea,' but this is limited to specific and defined circumstances. Coastal states may take necessary measures within their territorial sea to prevent unlawful passage.
