Pakistan Cryptocurrency Council Proposes Using Excess Energy for Bitcoin Mining

Bilal Bin Saqib, CEO of the Pakistan Cryptocurrency Council, has proposed using the country’s excess energy to power Bitcoin. Mining was discussed at the first meeting of the Cryptocurrency Council on March 21. The establishment of the Cryptocurrency Council is a sharp departure from the Pakistani government’s previous stance on cryptocurrencies. In May 2023, former Minister of State for Finance and Taxation Aisha Ghaus Pasha said that cryptocurrencies would never be legal in the country.

Earlier news , Pakistan plans to create a legal framework for cryptocurrency transactions to attract international investment.

Japanese listed real estate company Open House Group announces acceptance of XRP, SOL and DOGE payments

Japanese listed real estate company Open House Group announced that it will accept XRP, SOL and DOGE payments, supporting international customers to use related cryptocurrencies to purchase local properties.

The U.S. Department of Justice has recovered $7 million in stolen money from a cryptocurrency scam and is now urging victims to claim their funds

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) announced on March 21 that $7 million in proceeds from a cryptocurrency investment fraud scheme had been recovered, and is now inviting victims to submit petitions to repatriate their funds. “These fraudulent websites mimicked legitimate cryptocurrency investment platforms, but sent victims’ funds to the perpetrators through more than 75 bank accounts opened in the names of shell companies,” authorities said. Victims were misled into believing that the value of their investments was increasing, but in reality, the proceeds were fabricated.

After laundering the money through a complex series of domestic and international transactions, the perpetrators ultimately moved the funds overseas. In June 2023, the U.S. Secret Service seized funds from a foreign bank account, prompting the Department of Justice to file a civil forfeiture lawsuit. After the foreign bank filed a claim, the two parties reached a settlement that resulted in $7 million being forfeited to the United States.

Custodia Bank founder: The Federal Reserve is reviewing two crypto-friendly banks, and the de-banking problem may not be solved until January next year

Caitlin Long, founder and CEO of Custodia Bank, said that it is too early to say that de-banking is over. The Federal Reserve is currently reviewing two cryptocurrency-friendly banks and has sent a large number of examiners to these banks, including examiners from Washington. This army is simply stifling these banks from providing services to crypto companies.

Caitlin Long added: “Trump doesn’t have the ability to appoint new Fed governors until January, so you can see signs of a potential big fight. If the OCC and FDIC reverse their anti-crypto guidelines and the Fed doesn’t, what’s the crypto industry going to do?”

Viewpoint

Greeks.live: The community is cautious about Bitcoin volatility and focuses on building a reasonable hedging structure

Greeks.live macro researcher Adam published a Chinese community briefing, which pointed out that the community is cautious about Bitcoin volatility and discussed whether it will hit a new low. Members are mainly concerned about rationally building hedging structures and choosing cost-effective option strategies, rather than simply predicting the direction of market ups and downs. In terms of option trading strategies, the community believes that it is important to choose option strategies that can sell both good prices and good IVs. Most traders prefer to reduce costs and focus on cash flow direction, and take delivery at a discount through covered/uncovered strategies, rather than focusing on volatility trading.

He Yi responded to "the project party that is about to delist buys votes for others": next time no one chooses to delist

Trader Eugene: Stronger altcoins have reached the bottom, but it is still unclear whether the bottom of most assets has arrived

Trader Eugene said in his personal channel that the current market has entered the fifth stage in the figure (bullish losses, coin price consolidation, shrinking trading volume and volatility). At this stage, some stronger altcoins have reached the bottom, but it is still uncertain whether the bottom of most assets has arrived. This stage is the stage in which Eugene himself participates the least, mainly because the volatility is very small whether it goes up or down. I will only try to pick one or two targets that I think are more defensive than ordinary altcoins, hoping that they can perform better if I make a mistake in my bearish judgment, but that's all.

The tricky thing about phase 5 is that it has an uncertain duration. Personally, I don’t think it will stay in this phase as long as the previous cycle, given the lack of structural damage (no companies or projects going out of business), but this is just speculation. The crypto market may still follow the stock market for a while.
