June 7th - According to sources, Sriram Krishnan, a technology investor who spearheaded the Trump administrations pro-industry AI policy, plans to leave the White House at the end of this month to found an outside organization aimed at influencing technology policy. Krishnan is one of the architects of the governments "AI Action Plan," which outlined a blueprint for deregulating new technologies and promoting the construction of data centers nationwide. He also participated in drafting an executive order limiting states ability to regulate AI. However, advanced AI models such as Anthropics Mythos have demonstrated the ability to discover software security vulnerabilities, raising concerns among senior government officials about the risk of cyberattacks and prompting some officials to reassess the relaxed regulatory approach championed by Krishnan and others.According to Saudi media alhadath: Pakistans Interior Minister has arrived in Iran.According to The Information, White House senior policy advisor on artificial intelligence, Krishnan, will be leaving the office.On June 7th, Federal Reserve Governor Michael Barr criticized regulators moves over the past year to ease restrictions on bank lending, stating that related proposals "significantly weakened bank regulation." Barr stated that the vulnerabilities resulting from deregulation may not be immediately apparent, but will accumulate problems over the next few years and could cause serious damage to the economy. Trump-era officials have taken steps to ease capital requirements for Wall Street banks, narrow the scope of regulation, and pave the way for competition between traditional banks and private lending giants. Barr warned that weaker capital rules, liquidity requirements, and regulation could increase the risk of bank failures. He pointed out that banks need room to grow to support economic innovation, but long-term experience shows that without proper safeguards, the pursuit of high-profit innovation can lead to excessive risk. When banks run into trouble, their failures threaten businesses and households, and even jeopardize the overall economy.Federal Reserve Chairman Barr warned that relaxing regulatory rules for Wall Street banks could pose risks.

According to researcher CryptoCompare, trade in cryptocurrency derivatives on centralized exchanges increased to $3.12 trillion in July, up 13% month over month, as cryptocurrency values begin to rebound from the recent market crisis.


According to CryptoCompare, the derivatives market now accounts for 69% of all crypto transactions, up from 66% in June, and helped drive total crypto volumes on exchanges to $4.51 trillion in July.


On July 29, derivatives exchanges transacted up to $245 billion, which is 9.7% greater than the $223 billion top daily high for June.


Spot cryptocurrency trade, however, dipped to $1.39 trillion in July, the lowest level since December 2020 and a monthly fall of 1.3%, according to CryptoCompare.


In May and June, the price of cryptocurrencies fell precipitously as investors fled riskier investments due to concerns about soaring inflation and Federal Reserve interest rate rises. Several cryptocurrency organizations have slashed staff after a significant pair of tokens collapsed, and other cryptocurrency lenders have frozen client withdrawals.


With bitcoin rising 17% in July, prices have somewhat recovered. It is still a long way from its record high of $69,000 in November, which it reached at roughly $24,300.


Since there is no U.S. Federal Reserve meeting in August, CryptoCompare said, "the jump in futures trading volume signals an increase in speculative activity as traders feel there is opportunity for more upside in current rally."


According to CryptoCompare, traders are also making predictions on the impending Ethereum merge, which is a network update anticipated for September.


Since its $880 low in June, ether has increased to over $1,900.


According to CryptoCompare, BinanceUSD, a stablecoin released by the cryptocurrency exchange Binance, gained popularity in July as spot volumes for transactions between bitcoin and BinanceUSD for the first time surpassed those between bitcoin and dollars.


With a 54% market share, Binance continued to dominate the exchange landscape, while Atom Asset Exchange (AAX), which saw its volume increase by 26.5% in July, moved into second place.


Trading volumes more than half in the second quarter of 2022, according to a data released on Tuesday by American exchange Coinbase.
