🚨BREAKING NEWS TODAY🚨
Today, June 16, 2025, macroeconomic news and financial policy in the global market have notable impacts on the development of digital currencies:
1. Fed expected to keep interest rates unchanged
According to ANZ Bank, the Federal Reserve (Fed) is expected to maintain the current base interest rate in the upcoming meeting, as inflation and labor market data still demonstrate the resilience of the US economy. The Fed “staying put” is assessed to relieve pressure on risk assets, including digital currencies, creating a stable sentiment and supporting capital flows into Bitcoin and Ethereum.
2. EU licenses crypto “giants” under MiCA framework
The European Union is proceeding to license major companies such as Gemini, OKX, and Crypto.com under the Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation. Malta and Luxembourg are leading in licensing, while the ESMA and some other countries express concerns about weak supervisory capacity, which could lead to a “race to the bottom.” A clear signal about the MiCA legal framework provides higher transparency, which may attract more institutional capital into the crypto market.
3. UK FCA relaxes crypto ETP restrictions for retail investors
The UK Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is considering allowing retail investors to access exchange-traded products (ETPs) related to crypto, which were previously reserved for professional investors. Although this move is seen as aligning with European standards, many experts remain skeptical about its far-reaching impact on the UK’s leading position in the global digital currency map.
