On May 12, BIT Official released a daily chart analysis stating that Circle's stock price surged 16% overnight and is currently approaching the March 2026 high. This week may become a key juncture for the advancement of the CLARITY Act. The market generally believes that Circle is the most direct beneficiary, and this rise reflects the market's anticipation that regulatory uncertainties may ease. Notably, the overall market capitalization of USDC has maintained steady growth recently. Circle's recent surge more reflects the market's early pricing of potential favorable policies and regulations rather than a significant improvement in short-term fundamentals. If digital asset regulatory rules become clearer, it could not only support Bitcoin but also encourage more institutional participation in the market.

On May 12, Ibrahim Rezaei, spokesperson for the Iranian Parliament's National Security and Foreign Policy Committee, stated that if Iran is attacked again, its response could involve raising uranium enrichment levels to 90%. Rezaei indicated that this issue would be reviewed in the Iranian Parliament. Currently, the uranium enrichment issue has become a key obstacle in U.S.-Iran negotiations, with Iran reiterating that its rights to uranium enrichment are 'non-negotiable.' The U.S. has previously demanded that Iran export its highly enriched uranium or suspend its uranium enrichment activities for 20 years. According to monitoring by PolyBeats, on the prediction market Polymarket, the probability of 'when Iran will agree to stop uranium enrichment' is 7% by the end of May, 28% by the end of June, and 54% by the end of the year.

On May 12, U.S. President Donald Trump reiterated his desire to visit the Fort Knox gold vault in Kentucky to confirm whether there is still gold stored there. Trump had previously expressed skepticism, stating that 'some people' might have stolen the gold. Currently, neither the White House nor Fort Knox has responded to Trump's remarks, and it is unclear if a visit has been arranged. The Fort Knox vault, established in 1936, holds approximately 147 million ounces of gold, which accounts for 56% of the U.S. official gold reserves.

The Federal Reserve Board had previously released a research brief titled 'Official Reserve Revaluations: The International Experience' in August 2025, exploring how governments can generate disposable cash by revaluing the accounting value of gold at 'market prices' without actually selling it. The report explicitly compared the recorded value of the 261.5 million ounces of gold held by the U.S. Treasury, which is based on the statutory price of $42.22 per ounce set in 1973 (totaling about $11 billion). If revalued at the current gold price (approximately $4,700 per ounce), the total reserve of 261.5 million ounces would yield over $1.2 trillion in accounting gains, seen as the 'ultimate weapon' for restoring dollar credibility amid the debt crisis.

Several macro-strategic analysts in the U.S. have long advocated this viewpoint, believing that revaluing gold is a last resort for the U.S. to instantly reduce its debt ratio and inject liquidity into the system in the face of unsustainable debt pressures. In 2025, U.S. Treasury Secretary Becerra publicly mentioned the need to 'mobilize the asset side of the U.S. balance sheet,' although he later expressed caution regarding an immediate revaluation of gold. However, this was interpreted by the market as a signal of a policy shift. (Dongxin News Agency)

On May 12, gold prices fell on Tuesday as the market weighed developments in the Middle East and interest rate expectations ahead of key US inflation data. Spot gold dropped below $4,700 per ounce, down 0.74% for the day. Hopes for a peace agreement between the US and Iran have gradually faded as Iran rejected a US proposal to end the conflict and insisted on a list of demands described as 'garbage' by President Trump. Ilya Spivak, Head of Global Macro Research at Tastylive, stated, 'We have seen many central bank policy expectations shift to a more hawkish stance, which for the Federal Reserve means that the possibility of any rate cuts this year has disappeared.' He added, 'We are closely monitoring the potential impact of the US CPI data and whether there is stronger inflation momentum than expected.' Rising crude oil prices could push inflation higher, thereby increasing the likelihood of interest rate hikes.
