Ethereum Foundation Is Dumping ETH Again, But The Buyer Is Even More Interesting

The Ethereum Foundation has sold 5,000 ETH (worth approximately $10 million) in an over-the-counter (OTC) transaction to the publicly traded Bitcoin mining company, Bitmine. The foundation stated the sale is part of its structured treasury management policy to fund its core operations, including protocol development and grants. This follows previous sales, including a 10,000 ETH OTC deal in July 2025. Despite the sale occurring amid market volatility, Ethereum's price has risen over 12% in 24 hours, trading above $2,200. The transaction highlights growing institutional interest, with Bitmine continuing to accumulate ETH even during volatile conditions.

Fed Set To Review ‘Toxic’ Bitcoin Basel Treatment For Major US Banks

The Federal Reserve is set to propose new rules next week implementing the final phase of Basel III for major US banks, sparking a debate over the current "toxic" regulatory treatment of Bitcoin. Under existing Basel guidelines, Bitcoin is assigned a punitive 1,250% risk weight, making it prohibitively expensive for regulated banks to hold or provide services related to Bitcoin. Critics, including Bitcoin Policy Institute's Conner Brown, argue this approach is a "category error" that mischaracterizes Bitcoin’s risk profile and stifles banking services for Bitcoin companies. The Fed’s proposal will enter a 90-day public comment period, offering an opportunity to challenge the harsh capital requirements and advocate for a risk-based framework instead.

Bitcoin Policy Institute to Assess Federal Reserve Basel Proposal on Bitcoin Risk Rules

The Bitcoin Policy Institute announced it will review an upcoming Federal Reserve proposal that could influence how U.S. banks handle Bitcoin under international banking rules. The Fed is expected to release a proposal next week detailing how major banks should apply Basel risk-weighting regulations, followed by a 90-day public comment period. Currently, Basel rules assign Bitcoin a 1250% risk weight, classifying it as an extremely high-risk asset. This requires banks to hold significantly larger reserves to cover Bitcoin-related exposures, which critics argue discourages banking engagement with the cryptocurrency sector. The policy could restrict services for Bitcoin firms, custody solutions for investors, and overall financial infrastructure supporting Bitcoin. The Institute plans to analyze the proposal and submit formal feedback, as the outcome may shape traditional banks' future involvement in the Bitcoin ecosystem.

Bitcoin Tax Battle: Bitcoin Policy Institute Pushes For Inclusion, Coinbase Tackles Allegations

The Bitcoin Policy Institute (BPI) has released a report addressing ongoing U.S. legislative efforts to establish a Bitcoin de minimis tax exemption. Pro-crypto Senator Cynthia Lummis is advocating for a standalone bill proposing a $300 transaction threshold and a $5,000 annual cap, alongside measures to prevent double taxation for miners and stakers. The bill is projected to generate $600 million over a decade. However, with midterm elections approaching and Lummis leaving the Senate in 2027, BPI warns that the window for passing such legislation is narrowing. Meanwhile, Coinbase has denied allegations that it lobbied against the tax exemption to favor stablecoins, with its Chief Policy Officer stating the company "has never and will never lobby against Bitcoin."

Bank Of England Open To Review Stablecoin Ownership Cap Proposal Following Backlash

The Bank of England (BoE) has indicated it is open to revising its proposed regulations for systemic pound-pegged stablecoins following significant backlash from lawmakers and industry leaders. Deputy Governor Sarah Breeden stated the central bank is considering alternatives to its controversial proposals, which include temporary ownership caps of £10,000-£20,000 for individuals and £10 million for businesses, and a requirement for issuers to hold at least 40% of reserves as deposits at the BoE. Industry figures argued the caps are too restrictive and administratively burdensome, potentially damaging the UK's ambition to be a digital asset hub. The BoE plans to release draft rules for consultation in June and finalize them by year-end.

Stablecoin Yields May Boost US Bank Deposits: Patrick Witt

Patrick Witt, executive director of the President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, argues that the debate over stablecoin yields overlooks a broader macroeconomic benefit. Contrary to concerns from banking groups that yield-bearing stablecoins could drain deposits, Witt suggests that under the GENIUS Act framework, compliant stablecoins may actually bring new capital into the U.S. banking system. He explains that global demand for USD is significant, and when foreigners purchase U.S.-issued stablecoins, it represents net new capital entering American banks. This discussion occurs amid ongoing tension between policymakers, banks, and crypto firms regarding whether stablecoin issuers should be allowed to offer rewards or interest-like returns. Traditional banks, like the American Bankers Association, warn that such yields could threaten bank deposits and advocate for a level regulatory playing field. Crypto industry representatives counter that the GENIUS Act already imposes strict reserve requirements, mandating full backing by cash or cash-equivalents. Witt emphasizes that it is not the payment of yield itself that necessitates bank-like regulation, but rather the lending or rehypothecation of underlying funds—which the GENIUS Act explicitly prohibits.

Coinbase CPO Lists 5 Critical Errors US Congress Should Avoid In Stablecoin Regulation

Coinbase Chief Policy Officer Faryar Shirzad outlines five key mistakes US Congress should avoid in stablecoin regulation. He warns against undermining bipartisan goals of the GENIUS Act, which aims to strengthen the US dollar, boost demand for Treasuries, and keep digital innovation onshore. Shirzad cautions against favoring traditional banks with unverified claims about deposit flight risks, as stablecoins benefit consumers and banks alike. He also emphasizes the need for precise regulatory authority to prevent future misuse and avoid disrupting existing lawful business partnerships. Finally, he urges Congress to consider the voices of millions of crypto investors, not just bank lobbyists, and to enact clear rules that foster innovation in the US rather than driving it abroad.

White House Mediates Bank–Crypto Clash Over CLARITY Act

The White House is mediating between banks and crypto industry representatives over the stalled CLARITY Act in the Senate. White House crypto adviser Patrick Witt emphasized the need to keep the legislation pro-innovation and criticized attempts to turn it into an anti-competition bill. Coinbase officials, including Paul Grewal, accused banks of causing unnecessary delays and attempting to divert benefits from retail consumers to themselves. Banks, represented by groups like the Bank Policy Institute, express concerns over deposit flight risks and are considering legal action against the OCC for granting banking charters to crypto firms. Previously, former President Trump warned that failure to pass the bill could drive the crypto industry to competing countries like China.

Arthur Hayes Urges Caution as Federal Reserve Maintains Tight Policy

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, advises caution regarding Bitcoin investment while the Federal Reserve maintains a tight monetary policy. In a recent podcast, he explained that restrictive policies reduce liquidity flowing into speculative markets like cryptocurrency. Hayes stated he would wait to invest, emphasizing that investors should monitor the Fed for signals of policy easing—such as interest rate cuts or increased money supply—before committing to riskier assets. He believes that only when central banks begin printing money will it be the right time to buy Bitcoin. Hayes encourages patience and close observation of macroeconomic indicators and geopolitical events, which can influence central bank policies and market liquidity.

‘Attempts to hijack the CLARITY Act are shameful’: Trump advisor slams banks

White House advisor Patrick Witt criticizes the banking lobby for opposing the pro-innovation CLARITY Act, calling attempts to turn it into an anti-competition bill "shameful." The dispute centers on stablecoin rewards, which banks argue create an uneven playing field and risk deposit flight, potentially reducing bank lending. Stablecoin issuers view restrictions as a threat to their business model and cite competition with China's digital yuan. Lawmakers propose limiting types of stablecoin reward activities as a compromise, but the bill's future remains uncertain without resolution.
