On April 1, Federal Reserve Governor Michael Barr stated that the development of stablecoins must be built on strict regulation, warning that without effective constraints, the long history of 'private currencies causing problems' could repeat itself. In his remarks, Barr pointed out that although the 'GENIUS Stablecoin Act' has provided an initial regulatory framework for the industry, the key lies in subsequent enforcement, including ongoing monitoring of reserve assets and mechanisms to prevent illegal uses. He emphasized that stablecoins can only be truly considered 'stable' if they can maintain par value redemption under various market conditions. The liquidity and safety of reserve assets are particularly critical during market pressures or heightened risks from issuers. Additionally, Barr noted that stablecoin issuers have an incentive to increase yields for profit, which may lead them to take on higher risks in managing reserve assets, potentially posing a threat to financial stability. Currently, the regulatory issues surrounding stablecoins remain one of the significant points of divergence in U.S. cryptocurrency legislation, also affecting the progress of related bills to some extent.

On April 1, Jaret Seiberg, Managing Director at TD Cowen, expressed an increasingly pessimistic outlook on the prospects of the Clarity Act, the crypto market structure bill, in a research report released on Monday. He believes the probability of the Senate advancing the bill and it passing the House is only one-third. The bill currently remains stalled in the U.S. Senate, as Congress has entered a two-week Easter recess. Seiberg pointed out that a recent compromise proposal on stablecoin yields, pushed by Senators Thom Tillis and Angela Alsobrooks, is 'insufficient' to advance the bill. This proposal prohibits earning yields on idle stablecoin balances but allows activity-based rewards when using stablecoins. Seiberg believes this compromise may not satisfy either party: it would hinder crypto platforms from using stablecoins for liquidity management, while for banks, it would incentivize crypto platforms to push stablecoins for everyday payments, threatening core deposit business. Seiberg stated that the bill is most likely to advance in late July before Congress's August recess, at which point recess pressure may force senators to reach a compromise. He also noted that even senators who were previously optimistic are lowering their expectations, with Senator Mark Warner reducing the probability of the bill's passage from 80% to 50% to 60%.

On April 1, OpenAI completed a $122 billion financing round, bringing the company's valuation to $852 billion. This marks the largest financing round for the company to date, supporting its expensive investments in chips, data centers, and talent. Most of the funds in this months-long preparation came from three major tech companies. Amazon agreed to invest $50 billion in this round, while NVIDIA and SoftBank Group each invested $30 billion. A significant portion of Amazon's investment ($35 billion) is contingent on OpenAI's ability to go public or achieve a technological milestone in general artificial intelligence. OpenAI also raised over $3 billion from individual investors through bank channels for the first time. The company reported that it currently generates $2 billion in revenue per month, with enterprise sales accounting for 40% of its revenue, expected to rise to 50% by the end of the year.

On April 1, the White House stated on Tuesday that the U.S. military is prepared to thwart any attacks from Iran. This response comes after threats from the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) against American businesses in the Middle East. "The U.S. military has always been ready to deter any attacks from Iran, and the 90% decrease in the regime's ballistic missile and drone attacks is clear evidence of that," a White House official stated. Reports indicate that the IRGC announced earlier on Tuesday that it would take action against U.S.-owned businesses in the region starting April 1, as retaliation for attacks against Iran.
