Fed’s Bowman flags rising AI risks to banks, calls for coordinated oversight

Federal Reserve Vice Chair for Supervision Michelle Bowman urged regulators to work more closely together as artificial intelligence tools rapidly make their way into the banking system, warning that the same technology helping firms defend themselves could also be turned against them.　　Speaking at a Financial Stability Oversight Council roundtable on cybersecurity and artificial intelligence, Bowman said regulators are still figuring out “how best to oversee” these fast-moving technologies as banks begin integrating them into core operations.　　One example she pointed to was Mythos, an advanced system built by Anthropic that can scan software for vulnerabilities.　　“Anthropics Mythos… shows the dynamic nature of this technology and how quickly its capabilities can develop.”　　The concern, Bowman indicated, is straightforward but serious: tools that help banks find weaknesses in their systems could just as easily be used by attackers to exploit them.　　Safer ways for banks to adopt AI　　Behind the scenes, regulators are now wrestling with a practical question — whether existing rules are enough.　　For years, banks have operated under model risk frameworks designed to keep quantitative systems in check. But AI, especially newer generative models, doesnt always behave in predictable ways. That makes it harder to test, monitor, and explain — all things regulators typically expect.　　Officials

Bitcoin miner Riot's shares jump 8% after expanding AMD data center deal, signaling AI pivot

Riot Platforms (RIOT) shares jumped about 8% on Friday after Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) expanded its capacity at the company‘s Rockdale, Texas campus, highlighting Riot’s continued pivot from bitcoin mining into AI and high-performance computing.　　According to the Q1 financial results, AMD exercised an option to double its contracted capacity to 50 megawatts (MW), with the potential to upsize to 150MW. According to the earnings transcript, Riot said the agreement could generate roughly $636 million over a 10-year term.　　Riot also secured improved terms on its $200 million bitcoin-backed credit facility with Coinbase, lowering the rate to a fixed 6.15% from 8.3% and releasing 1,544 of pledged collateral bitcoin, signaling growing lender confidence in its expanding data center business.　　Together with the AMD deal and improved credit terms, investors are paying a premium for the stock. “Market pricing in lower cost of capital as the expanded AMD deal drives lender confidence,” said Matthew Sigel, head of digital assets research at VanEck.　　Riot was one of the last few pure play mining companies left that didnt get into hosting AI computing, while others opened up their data centers to move away from mining. Until recently, activist investor Starboard started to urge the management to accelerate

RAY Technical Analysis May 1

RAY, with an impressive 10.44% rise in the last 24 hours, jumped to the $0.85 level, solidifying its short-term uptrend, while RSI approaching 76 indicates the overbought zone and puts the risk of a possible correction on the table.　　Market Outlook and Current Situation　　The RAY market is facing clear upward momentum on the daily timeframe. With the current price positioned at $0.85, the 24-hour range occurred between $0.75-$0.85, and volume stands at a supportive level of $4.10 million. This movement can be evaluated as part of the general altcoin rally; as RAY, reflecting the strong position of the Raydium protocol in the DeFi ecosystem, is regaining investor interest. While the uptrend continues, the price is comfortably tracking above EMA20 ($0.72), indicating that short-term bulls are in control.　　However, the dynamics behind this rally should be carefully examined. Bitcoin‘s sideways movement across the market may limit such jumps in altcoins. RAY’s 10.44% gain over 24 hours raises sustainability questions due to relatively modest volume. Multi-timeframe confluence analysis reveals that 4 support and 4 resistance levels are strongly clustered on the 1D chart; on 3D and 1W timeframes, there is no clear participation yet, signaling that we are at a stage testing the depth

Crypto ETFs: Japans JPX Exchange To List Bitcoin & Other Altcoin ETFs

Spot Bitcoin ETFs flow data　　Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of about $263.2 million on April 27, $89.7 million on April 28 and $137.6 million on April 29. The withdrawals were widespread among the key funds, which suggests a temporary dip in investor enthusiasm.　　A similar pattern can be observed with Ethereum ETFs, albeit on a smaller scale. The net outflows were roughly $50.4 million on April 27, $21.8 million on April 28 and then $87.8 million on April 29.　　These figures suggest that while institutional interest in crypto exposure is structurally sound, flows can be highly volatile in response to market events. On the contrary, altcoin ETFs like XRP ETF saw inflows of $81 million.　　The outflows, while temporary, reflect volatility as JPX prepares to launch crypto ETFs. In the past, Japan has adopted a conservative stance on digital assets. Nonetheless, there has been a recent uptick in regulatory interest, as policymakers explore ways to bring crypto assets into traditional financial instruments.　　Crypto ETFs, if approved on the Tokyo Stock Exchange, would be a game-changer for Asias markets. It would place Japan in the same camp as other global economies that have adopted regulated crypto investment vehicles.　　Conclusion　　Crypto news highlighted Japan Exchange Groups plans
