On March 21, Bank of America discussed the outlook for the US dollar and maintained its medium-term bearish view. The bank stated, "Since the outbreak of the Iran war, the US dollar has unsurprisingly appreciated against other G10 currencies, although the overall appreciation has not been significant. Until the situation becomes clearer, oil prices and major risks will continue to dominate the foreign exchange market. Meanwhile, interest rate expectations have been raised in most G10 central banks, which has somewhat restrained the dollars appreciation," Bank of America noted. Bank of America further pointed out that although relative interest rates have not been the main driver of the foreign exchange market during this period, this situation may change as the impact of the war on the real economy gradually becomes apparent. "While we maintain our long-term bearish view on the US dollar, upside risks to the dollar are likely to dominate as the war continues," Bank of America added.The Israeli military claims to have attacked a ballistic missile production facility of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard in Tehran.On March 21st, at the recently concluded Huawei China Partner Conference 2026, Huawei unveiled and showcased the Atlas 350 AI training and inference accelerator card, powered by the new Ascend 950PR processor.

Government personnel who actively engage in cryptocurrencies or are discovered to be in possession of any are prohibited from taking part in the creation of legislation and policies pertaining to cryptocurrencies, according to a recent directive from the US Office of Government Ethics.

With Some Exceptions

Additionally, the advisory notice made clear that even if the restriction is in effect, it only does so with a de minimis exception.


Owners are still able to invest in cryptocurrencies via publicly listed shares and mutual funds of businesses offering cryptocurrency and blockchain services because to this exception. Stablecoins and all other forms of cryptocurrency are included.


Government personnel are still permitted to acquire cryptocurrencies; but, doing so will prevent them from contributing to the development of crypto-related regulations.


They may still work on such initiatives, however, provided they divert their cryptocurrency holdings into other financial opportunities.


The notification went on to further describe the situation, saying "An employee may not engage in a specific topic if the employee understands that particular item might have a direct and predictable influence on the value of their cryptocurrency or stablecoins."


However, even for those who are permitted to invest in cryptocurrency-related stock index listings, a $50k threshold has been imposed over which the de minimis exemption is no longer applicable.

Crypto investors suffer a loss

The cryptocurrency market isn't in the greatest of health right now, even if the Biden administration is concentrating on creating laws for cryptocurrencies after the POTUS issued an executive order for the same.


The continued bearishness is having an impact on cryptocurrency firms as the overall market value of all cryptocurrencies is struggling to reach $1 trillion.


Voyager Digital has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy a week after stopping the platform's withdrawal, trading, and deposit services after Harmony almost went bankrupt a while back.


Thus, even without the US GOE's decision, it would only have taken these investors a little longer to leave the market, similar to how many other investors are already doing.
