U.S. employment data fell short of expectations, leading to increased market anticipation of a rate cut by the Federal Reserve in June. According to RTHK, this development caused both the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields to decline. The dollar index decreased by 0.2%, closing at 98.85, although it rose over 1% for the week.
On Friday, the euro appreciated by approximately 0.1% against the dollar, while the British pound increased by 0.4%. The dollar also gained 0.1% against the Japanese yen. The yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury note briefly fell by more than 4 basis points to 4.105%, while the more rate-sensitive 2-year Treasury yield dropped by 8 basis points to 3.519%. Both yields later narrowed their declines, settling around 4.13% and 3.55%, respectively.

On Monday, the world woke up to a terrifying reality: oil prices didn’t just rise—they exploded. Brent crude, the international benchmark, surged by an eye-popping 30%, briefly touching a staggering $119 per barrel. It is a level of chaos not seen since the initial invasion of Ukraine in 2022.
In the middle of this high-stakes drama, one man has stepped back into the spotlight with a proposal that has left European leaders in a daze. Vladimir Putin, chairing a high-level meeting at the Kremlin, has made a move that no one saw coming so soon. With the Strait of Hormuz—the world’s most critical oil chokepoint—effectively slammed shut by the war in Iran, the West is suddenly gasping for air. Putin knows this. And now, he is offering a lifeline, but it comes with a heavy price.
"We are ready to work with Europeans again," Putin declared in a televised address that felt more like a chess move than a diplomatic gesture. His offer is simple yet haunting: Russia can turn the taps back on and flood Europe with the oil and gas it so desperately needs to keep the lights on and the factories running. But there is a catch. He is demanding "long-term, sustainable cooperation" and an end to what he calls "political pressure." In short, he wants the sanctions—the very tools Europe used to punish him for the Ukraine war—to vanish.
The suspense is killing the markets. For four years, Europe has fought tooth and nail to break its "addiction" to Russian energy, cutting reliance from 40% down to a mere 13%. They built new pipelines, signed new deals, and stood their ground. But as the Middle East burns and the $100-per-barrel mark becomes a painful reality, that resolve is being tested like never before. Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban has already broken ranks, urging the EU to suspend sanctions to stop the economic bleeding.
Is Europe ready to go back to the partner they tried so hard to leave? Or will they endure the freezing heights of record-breaking energy costs to keep their principles intact? The clock is ticking, and as the US-Israeli war on Iran rages on, the "off-ramp" Putin has provided looks more tempting—and more dangerous—by the hour.

رجحت “كريستين سميث”، رئيسة معهد سياسات سولانا والمسؤولة السابقة في جمعية البلوكشين، أن يتم إقرار قانون “Clarity Act”، أحد أهم مشاريع تنظيم سوق العملات الرقمية في الولايات المتحدة، بحلول يوليو 2026.
وفي مقابلة مع مجلة “Fortune“، أوضحت “سميث” أن تمرير تشريع مستقل خلال عام انتخابي ليس سهلا، لذلك قد يحاول المشرعون تمريره عبر إدراجه ضمن مشاريع قوانين كبرى يجب اعتمادها.
لكن هذه الخطوة تتطلب موافقة قيادات الحزبين في اللجان المعنية، وهو أمر ما يزال محل خلاف، خاصة مع معارضة شخصيات مثل السيناتور “إليزابيث وارن”.
كما واجه مشروع القانون تعقيدات إضافية بعدما سحب “براين أرمسترونغ” الرئيس التنفيذي لـ “كوين بيس”، دعمه مؤقتا، معتبرا أن بعض التعديلات تميل لصالح البنوك التقليدية.
مع ذلك، تشير “سميث” إلى أن الوضع تغير بعد تدخل البيت الأبيض، الذي طالب البنوك التقليدية بتقديم تنازلات في النقاشات التنظيمية.
ويمثل يوليو 2026 الموعد الأبرز لتمرير القانون قبل عطلة الكونغرس في أغسطس، بينما سيكون ديسمبر 2026 آخر فرصة لإقراره خلال الجلسة الختامية بعد انتخابات منتصف الولاية.
في المقابل، يبدي الرئيس التنفيذي لشركة الريبل، “براد غارلينغهاوس”، تفاؤل أكبر، إذ يرى احتمال يصل إلى 90% لتمرير القانون قبل نهاية أبريل، في حين عاد “أرمسترونغ” إلى البيت الأبيض لمواصلة التفاوض حول النقاط الخلافية.

Blockchain technology first gained attention for enabling "smart contracts", a self executing agreements that run automatically on-chain when predefined conditions are met. These programmable contracts transformed how digital transactions and decentralized systems operate, removing the need for intermediaries and enabling trustless coordination between parties.
These smart contracts was first championed by Ethereum blockchain before other chains start integrating. Now, a similar concept is beginning to extend beyond the digital world and into physical systems. As robotics and artificial intelligence advance, machines are becoming capable of performing complex tasks without the aid of humans or centralized authorities.
This is part of the long-term vision behind @Fabric Foundation and its ecosystem powered by $ROBO . They identify the fact that the next phase of innovation lies in connecting intelligent machines to decentralized infrastructure. Smart contracts introduced the idea that code could enforce agreements automatically in DEX, these agreements get executed when certain conditions are met.
That's the same system $ROBO is bridging to robotics industry, the emergence of advanced robotics opens the possibility of extending these programmable systems into the physical world, where machines interact with real environments, perform services, generate data, and get paid without third-party involvement.
Fabric Foundation is building a bridge that connects robotics with blockchain infrastructure, create a framework where machine activity can be verified, recorded, and coordinated in a transparent and decentralized way.
A smart machine is more than just a robot performing automated tasks, it is a system capable of interacting with other devices, analyzing data, making operational decisions, and possess the ability to coordinate payment. $ROBO vision of smart machines. #Robo
