List of 'unsolvable' issues have shrunk, top White House crypto advisory says as momentum builds to pass legislation
Congress is back in Washington after a two-week recess, and a key Senate committee is expected to hold a hearing to vote on that sweeping bill, unlocking the next step to get it passed into law.

“I’m encouraged by the fact that we solved a lot of these [issues] that felt unsolvable,” said Patrick Witt on Monday at an event hosted by the Solana Policy Institute.

President Donald Trump's top crypto advisor is sparking optimism in getting broader cryptocurrency legislation passed into law.

Months ago, negotiations involved a dozen issues that "all felt impractical, unsolvable to camps that had irreconcilable differences," said Patrick Witt, executive director of the President's Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, on Monday at an event hosted by the Solana Policy Institute in Brooklyn. That has since been slimmed down, he added.

"I'm encouraged by the fact that we solved a lot of these that felt unsolvable," Witt added. 

Congress is back in Washington, D.C. after a two-week recess, and a key Senate committee is expected to hold a hearing to vote on that sweeping bill, unlocking the next step to get it passed into law — a major policy goal for the crypto industry. Legislation would clarify jurisdiction between the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, establish rules for exchanges, and require disclosures.

One of the most closely watched issues is the treatment of stablecoin rewards, which has drawn attention as the White House, lawmakers, and stakeholders have all weighed in recently.

Stablecoin rewards were addressed in stablecoin law, passed in July, which prohibits stablecoin issuers from paying interest directly to holders. However, it does not restrict third-party platforms, such as Coinbase, from offering rewards.

Crypto projects suffered losses exceeding $482 million in Q1 2026 amid increased network security measures. This comes on the back of a slow start to the year for digital assets and strict regulatory frameworks from Europe, Asia, and other jurisdictions.In the first three months of the year, decentralized finance (DeFi) hacks were slightly above expectations, though still low compared to previous years. A total of 44 incidents were recorded with losses above $482 million.A major takeaway was the dominance of mid-sized attacks compared to larger ones in the last five years. Many incidents originated off-chain (outside of on-chain code). This constitutes infrastructural layers and technical setups that have become more prone to bad-actor schemes.This first quarter generally marked the lowest since Q1 2023. Last year, the infamous Bybit incident cost the ecosystem over $1.4 billion, eroding market sentiment before bulls took control amid the corporate accumulation frenzy.According to Hacken, phishing and social engineering scams largely dominated, while smart contract losses declined. Specifically, $306 million was lost to phishing incidents, while smart contracts and cloud services incurred $86 million and $71 million in losses, respectively. A further breakdown links $40 million to North Korean hackers, while Resolv Labs’ AWS key was wiped out, costing $25 million. Last week, a group of North Korean hackers faked identities to make one $3.5 million.Blockchain enthusiast ZachXBT wrote that one IT worker, alongside a team of 140 people, made over $1 million per month. This adds to the growing rate of crypto scams impacting markets. “Meanwhile, DPRK-linked actors continued operating the same playbook documented in our 2025 report (fake VC calls, malware disguised as software updates, compromised employee laptops) and extracted another $40M+ from Step Finance and

Bitcoin climbs to highest level since Feb. 5 crash that sent price plunging to $60,000



Bitcoin touched $75,900 in mid-morning U.S. trading hours on Tuesday, marking its highest level since before February 5, when the price crashed down to $60,000.

Optimism about developments in the Iran war is sparking solid gains across risk assets and continued declines in oil prices. The Nasdaq was ahead 1.2% and WTI crude was lower by 6% to $93 per barrel.

Crypto-related stocks were higher across the board as well. Strategy (MSTR) was up 7.6, Coinbase (COIN) 6.2%, Circle (CRCL) 11% and Galaxy Digital (GLXY) 8.3%.

Bitcoin miners — most of which have altered their business plans to focus on AI-related data center buildouts — were also making large upside moves, led by the former Bitfarms, now Keel Infrastructure (KEEL), which was up 20.5%. MARA Holdings (MARA) was ahead 5.8% and Hut 8 (HUT) 4.8%.

The broader macro backdrop has also turned more supportive. With the Nasdaq reaching its highest level since early February, ether ($ETH) also outperformed bitcoin, underscoring the risk-on tone across markets, said Joel Kruger, market strategist at LMAX Group.

"Overall, the past 24 hours reflect a market that is beginning to show signs of re-engagement," Kruger said, pointing to improving technicals and broader participation.

The next test for the crypto rally comes at current levels. Kruger said the $76,000 level for bitcoin, where the mid-March rebound rolled over, is a key resistance.

A decisive move above — alongside sustained strength in ether ($ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency — would be key in determining whether the rebound can evolve into a more durable bullish trend, he said.

Ahead of its next earnings report, Apple Inc (AAPL) has received a stock target boost from analysts at Bank of America. Indeed, BAC raised its price target on Apple (AAPL) to $325 from $320 with a Buy rating. At press time, AAPL shares are trading at $259. The revision comes ahead of fiscal Q2 earnings due after market close on Thursday, April 30. BofA’s analysts believe the Street may be underestimating Apple’s near-term results.Ahead of earnings, Bank of America forecasts Apple will exceed expectations with $113 billion in revenue and $2.00 EPS, indicating strong demand for iPhones. With AAPL stock trading at $260.50 and the analyst consensus target sitting at $296.33, BofA’s new $325 target suggests gains of approximately 25% from the current stock price.BofA’s bullish thesis rests on two pillars: iPhone demand strength and double-digit growth in Services revenue. The firm sees upside to current Street estimates, which is a meaningful signal given how well Apple has already been performing. The most recent quarter supports that narrative, too. Apple reported iPhone revenue of $85.269 billion in Q1 2026, up 23% year over year, marking the best iPhone quarter ever. Should the iPhone developer replicate or surpass that performance in its April 30 earnings, Apple (AAPL) shares could boom past $300 quickly.Also Read: Why Google Stock is a Better Investment than MicrosoftOutside of Bank of America, numerous other firms are bullish on Apple for the remainder of 2026. Leading brokerage firm Traders Union forecasted a bullish price prediction for Apple stock for the end of 2026. According to the estimates, AAPL is set to reach an average trading price of $281 by December this year. The forecast also projects the leading equity to hit a high of $343 during the same period.Furthermore, Apple stock (AAPL) has performed relatively well in April. AAPL surged more than 4
