discussions on the US "CLARITY Act" have sparked a public debate between the banking industry and White House crypto policy officials. Christopher Williston VI, President of the Texas Independent Bankers Association, posted on the X platform openly stating that if the banking industry compromises on this bill, it will harm local lending and economic productivity, and said there will be no concession on liquidity issues supporting the local economy. In response, Patrick Witt, Executive Director of the White House Digital Assets Advisory Committee, stated that if no compromise is made on the "CLARITY Act," it means no restrictions will be placed on intermediaries providing stablecoin rewards. According to the banking industry's claim about "deposit outflows," this situation could have catastrophic consequences. This logic is "like watching an arsonist threaten to burn down their own house."

&nbsp;according to the UK Financial Times, due to strong opposition from the creative industries, UK government ministers will delay controversial changes to copyright rules that would have made it easier for AI companies to access and use media content. A person familiar with the UK government's response to the two-month consultation said, "Copyright issues will be put on hold again." The consultation aims to gather opinions on how to regulate AI companies' access to copyrighted materials, and the government's official response is expected to be released within the next two weeks. Two insiders revealed that public feedback on the consultation did not support any of the government's proposed schemes for AI use of copyrighted materials. Ministers have therefore decided to reconsider the proposals, gather more evidence, and conduct a longer consultation on multiple options.

&nbsp;according to an analysis by a Washington D.C.-based think tank of the Pentagon's disclosed target strikes and assets used in operations, this war costs about $891.4 million per day. The Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) predicts that as the U.S. shifts to using "cheaper munitions" and the number of drones and missiles launched by Iran decreases, the cost of the war will decline. CSIS added in its report: "However, future costs mainly depend on the intensity of operations and the effectiveness of Iran's counterattacks." CSIS's analysis shows that air, sea, and ground operations will be the largest expense items. Air operations are expected to cost $30 million per day, sea operations about $15 million per day. Meanwhile, ground operations cost $1.6 million per day. According to CSIS statistics, the first 100 hours of this war cost $3.7 billion.

The chart shows an upward trend at the start of the bear market cycle, indicating that extreme selling is easing, but the indicator is still far above the historical bottom area, meaning a full market sell-off has not yet been confirmed.
