Bitcoin rose slightly to $64,637, while gold tokens fell back; the SEC proposed new encryption regulations, Citigroup will launch Bitcoin custody, and the market focused on the integration of regulation and traditional finance.
Today's market is divided: Bitcoin rose slightly by 0.33% to $64,637.42, while gold tokens fell by about 1.6%, reflecting the recovery in risk appetite and rising U.S. bond yields. In terms of supervision, the SEC unexpectedly proposed new encryption regulations to provide more certainty for the industry. At the same time, traditional financial institutions such as Citigroup accelerated their deployment of digital assets, indicating that institutional adoption continues to advance. At the macro level, global bond yields have climbed and debt concerns have intensified, putting Bitcoin's role as a hedge asset to the test. Overall, the market is undergoing structural changes driven by regulatory clarification and the entry of traditional finance, but short-term fluctuations are still dominated by macro factors.
The crypto market performed modestly, with Bitcoin rising slightly to $64,637.42, Ethereum rising 0.2%, SOL rising 1.41%, while BNB, XRP, and DOGE fell slightly. The SEC’s “Regulation Crypto” proposal is a major benefit, providing a safe harbor for token issuance and may attract more institutional participation. Citi plans to launch Bitcoin custody and Kraken provides stock trading in Europe, both of which show the acceleration of the integration of traditional finance and encryption. In addition, Metaplanet has expanded its Bitcoin financial strategy through its U.S. subsidiary, demonstrating the company's long-term confidence in Bitcoin. However, with Bitcoin volatility falling to cycle lows and traders turning to other higher-risk assets, the short-term market is likely to remain range-bound.
Gold tokens XAUT and PAXG reported at $4,329.33 and $4,341.77 respectively, down about 1.6%, mainly suppressed by the rise in U.S. bond yields. Higher yields have undermined gold's appeal, although geopolitical risks such as the Strait of Hormuz have provided support. Analysis points out that gold prices face resistance at $4,435, but a long-term bullish flag pattern may push gold prices to $8,000. In the short term, gold may fluctuate at current levels, waiting for more macro signals.
