NATO Secretary General: We are ready to move into the next phase after the war ends, deploying the necessary ships and minesweepers to the Strait of Hormuz.On May 4th, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova stated in Russian media that the U.S. State Departments granting of U.S. citizenship to the children of Russian diplomats born in the United States violates both international and U.S. domestic law. Zakharova said that U.S. federal law clearly stipulates that children of diplomats stationed in the U.S. cannot acquire U.S. citizenship simply because they are born in the U.S., as they enjoy diplomatic immunity and are not subject to the jurisdiction of the host country. She believes that the U.S. State Departments use of the constitutional principle of "birthright citizenship" to grant U.S. citizenship to the children of Russian diplomats aims to undermine the process of eliminating "friction points" in bilateral relations between Russia and the U.S., while simultaneously using the childrens citizenship as a pretext to exert pressure on Russian diplomats.ECB Governing Council member Mueller: I expect inflation to accelerate in the coming months.ECB Governing Council member Mueller: Current interest rates are already at a roughly neutral level, leaving room for a wait-and-see approach.Futures News, May 4th: Economies.com analysts latest view: Spot gold prices came under pressure and fell in the latest intraday trading, after encountering resistance near the 50-day EMA, triggering selling pressure and pushing prices further lower. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) showed a negative crossover, an early signal of potential bearish divergence, which, if confirmed, could exacerbate downward pressure on spot gold. With the main downtrend continuing to dominate, the bearish scenario for spot gold remains valid for some time, especially if prices fail to break through the current dynamic resistance level. This further strengthens the probability of continued declines in gold prices, or at least maintains negative pressure until stronger technical signals emerge to support any rebound attempt.

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.
