The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission [CFTC] has clarified how certain crypto assets can be used within derivatives markets, signaling a measured expansion of digital assets into core financial infrastructure.

In newly released guidance, the CFTC’s Market Participants Division and Division of Clearing and Risk outlined conditions under which futures commission merchants [FCMs] and clearinghouses may accept crypto assets as margin collateral, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, and payment stablecoins.

The move provides additional clarity following earlier staff letters. It reflects growing regulatory engagement with crypto’s role in traditional financial systems.

Crypto assets gain footing as margin collateral

Under the guidance, FCMs may apply the value of non-security crypto assets as margin collateral in futures, foreign futures, and cleared swaps accounts. This includes Bitcoin, Ethereum, and certain stablecoins.

This means that eligible crypto holdings can now be used to secure trading positions or cover account deficits, subject to valuation adjustments.

Clearinghouses are also permitted to accept crypto assets as initial margin. This is provided they meet requirements related to credit, market, and liquidity risk.

However, the framework remains limited in scope. Crypto assets remain prohibited as margin for uncleared swaps, reinforcing a cautious regulatory approach.

Stablecoins receive preferential treatment

The guidance draws a clear distinction between volatile crypto assets and payment stablecoins.

FCMs are allowed to deposit their own payment stablecoins into segregated customer accounts as residual interest. This flexibility is not extended to assets like Bitcoin or Ethereum.

In addition, stablecoins are assigned significantly lower capital charges, reflecting their perceived stability compared to other crypto assets.

This differentiation suggests

Gold has slipped from above $5,200 while crypto bleeds and silver dumps, exposing “store of value” as a question of volatility, leverage and time horizon, not memes. Summary Gold has dropped about 10–15% from its early‑March spike above $5,200 to around $4,560, but remains structurally elevated and keeps finding dip buyers near the mid‑$4,500s. Silver has been hit harder, sliding roughly 20% this month back toward the low‑$70s per ounce, underscoring its role as the high‑beta “altcoin” of the metals complex. Crypto is mirroring the direction with more violence: BTC stuck in the high‑$60,000s to low‑$70,000s, total market cap around $2.4 trillion, and Bitcoin dominance near 58% as capital hides in the least ugly risk asset. Spot gold is trading just below $4,600 today, down roughly 10–15% from its early‑March blow‑off above $5,200, but still structurally elevated versus last year’s range. The parabolic spike has unwound, yet the metal holds a firm bid as a macro hedge, with buyers repeatedly stepping in on dips toward the mid‑$4,500s rather than capitulating en masse. Silver, by contrast, has been punished harder: spot sits around the low‑$70s per ounce after a ~20% month‑to‑date drawdown, with futures pointing to further downside if resistance near $74 holds. Crypto is mirroring the metals’ directionality but with far more violence. Bitcoin trades around the high‑$60,000s to low‑$70,000s, off more than 4% in the last 24 hours and roughly $17,000 below its level a year ago, as leverage gets flushed out of the system. Total crypto market cap sits in the $2.4–$2.5 trillion band, with BTC dominance above 58%, underscoring how capital is crowding back into the most “respectable” corner of the asset class as altcoins underperform. The tape is classic deleveraging: failed intraday bounces, narrowing leadership, and a persistent bid for liquidity over narrative. You might also lik

With the cryptocurrency market turning extremely bearish again, Bitcoin (BTC) saw a sharp pullback that brought its price below the $70,000 mark, a zone that had previously acted as a strong support. The pullback below the level was no coincidence as recent news about macro events rocked the market, causing BTC to lose its newfound bullish momentum.

Bitcoin Bears Back In Charge After $70,000 Loss
As the Bitcoin price falls below the crucial $70,000 threshold, the market structure surrounding the flagship cryptocurrency asset has undergone a significant shift. Bearish sentiment is rapidly spreading throughout the market as a result of the breakdown, which has significantly shifted momentum in favor of sellers.

In a post on X, Milk Road, a market expert and trader, revealed that the pullback below the $70,000 level was triggered by news regarding the Federal Reserve (Fed) decision to hold rates steady. After the meeting, no cuts were made, no surprises, reinforcing the higher for longer narrative.

The market had anticipated rate reductions by the middle of 2026, but the Fed extended that timeline today. However, the cryptocurrency market did not respond well to the meeting’s outcome, resulting in a sudden decline across the sector. Once the news dropped, BTC fell from $72,400 to under $70,000, marking a 3% move that wiped out the week’s gains in just a few hours.

Milk Road has outlined the alignment between the Bitcoin price and the macro event. During high rates, money becomes expensive as investors gather capital in bonds and cash, and risky assets like crypto get hit. Meanwhile, when rates drop, money gets cheap as capital hunts for yield. In past scenarios, this trend has been the rocket fuel for BTC.

Where has AGI reached now?

Just now, Google DeepMind released the ultimate metric for AGI!

This paper, titled "Measuring Progress Toward AGI: A Cognitive Framework," has a core argument in one sentence: Stop arguing about what AGI is, first figure out how to measure it.

Paper link: https://storage.googleapis.com /deepmind-media/DeepMind.com/Blog/measuring -progress-toward-agi/measuring-progress-toward -agi-a-cognitive-framework.pdf

Specifically, AGI evaluation is broken down into 10 key cognitive domains, including perception, generation, attention, learning, memory, reasoning, metacognition, executive function, problem-solving, and social cognition.

Meanwhile, Google DeepMind is also launching a $200,000 Kaggle hackathon for developers worldwide.

Hackathons, on the other hand, directly hand over the question-setting power to researchers worldwide-the framework is provided, you help create the exam questions.

From "AGI Classification" to "AGI Health Check"

This isn't DeepMind's first attempt to map out AGI.

In 2023, the same team published the famous "Levels of AGI" framework breaking down the path
