According to the UK Financial Times, Trump is preparing to open cryptocurrency, gold, and private equity to the $9 trillion U.S. retirement market, a move that will stimulate a fundamental shift in how Americans manage their savings. According to three insiders, Trump is expected to sign an executive order as early as this week to allow alternative investments beyond traditional stocks and bonds in 401k retirement plans. These investments will involve a wide range of asset classes, from digital assets to metals, as well as funds focused on corporate acquisitions, private loans, and infrastructure deals. The aforementioned insiders stated that the executive order will instruct regulators to investigate the obstacles faced by professionally managed funds that include alternative investments for 401k savers.

The U.S. House of Representatives passes procedural vote, cryptocurrency bill expected to be voted on tomorrow
Cointime news, July 17, according to reporter Eleanor Terrett, the U.S. House of Representatives narrowly passed the procedural rule vote with a score of 217-212, paving the way for the votes on key bills including cryptocurrencies and defense spending. The vote lasted nearly 10 hours, setting a record for the longest vote in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Some Republican lawmakers changed their positions multiple times within 24 hours, from opposition to support and then back to opposition, before ultimately returning to support.

Cointime message, on July 14, according to Jinshi Data reports, Tickmill analyst Patrick Munnelly stated in a report that Bitcoin has first broken through $120,000, with its upward momentum stemming from the cryptocurrency moving out of a recent narrow trading range, leading to increased investor confidence. He mentioned that the previous trading range had raised doubts about whether Bitcoin could regain the strong upward momentum it experienced earlier this year. Additionally, the uncertainty surrounding Trump's political and economic policies suppressed market enthusiasm for Bitcoin, keeping it within that range. Now, with U.S. stocks and other risk assets reaching all-time highs, Bitcoin has also resumed its upward trajectory, reigniting market enthusiasm. #BTC

Cointime news, on July 14, according to independent analyst Markus Thielen's latest report, Bitcoin has historically performed strongly in July, with 7 out of the last 10 years seeing gains in July, averaging a 9.1% increase. Analysts predicted as early as the beginning of July that Bitcoin is likely to rise to $117,244, driven by seasonal factors. Currently, the rise in Bitcoin is driven by multiple macro factors, including a strong performance in the U.S. stock market boosting market confidence, Trump's pressure on the Federal Reserve, and the approval of the 'Big Beautiful Bill' which raises the fiscal deficit limit, all of which have intensified market expectations for liquidity release. Historical data shows that the average return on Bitcoin in July is mostly positive, with the highest reaching 23.9% in 2020.
