Why is Silver gaining despite rising Fed rate hike bets？

Silver price (XAG/USD) gains ground for the second successive day, trading around $56.80 per troy ounce during the Asian hours on Monday. However, the non-interest-bearing white metal could face tough sledding ahead as United States (US)-Iran clashes drive oil prices higher, and resurfacing inflation risks are fueling expectations for Fed rate hikes.　　The US has launched its ninth consecutive night of strikes against Iranian targets. In response, Iranian officials declared that the ceasefire between the two nations has been effectively abandoned, opening the door for deepening disruptions to crucial energy pathways through the regions narrow waterways.　　The conflict has rapidly intensified across the region, triggering air raid sirens in Bahrain after Iran launched a fresh wave of ballistic missiles and one-way attack drones targeting sites across Bahrain, Jordan, Kuwait, and Iraq.

Record U.S. Margin Debt and Bitcoin Risks

U.S. margin debt hit a record $1.42T, raising leverage concerns as investors assess potential risks for Bitcoin and crypto markets.　　Record levels of U.S. margin debt have renewed attention on market leverage as investors monitor Bitcoin and the broader crypto market.　　Fresh data shows borrowing against stock portfolios climbed to new highs in May, while investor cash buffers continued to shrink.　　The trend has sparked discussion across financial and crypto communities about potential risks if markets reverse.　　U.S. Margin Debt Hits New High as Investor Leverage Climbs　　FINRA data shows U.S. margin debt reached $1.42 trillion in May 2026. That marked a 53.7% increase from the same month last year.　　It also represented one of the fastest yearly increases on record. The latest figures place margin debt at roughly 4.44% of U.S. GDP.　　Some market researchers view that as the highest reading in the historical dataset. Others dispute that comparison, arguing GDP is not the right benchmark for measuring borrowed investment capital.　　The debate has created two competing views of the same data. One group sees the record as evidence of elevated market leverage.　　Another argues adjusted measures paint a less extreme picture than previous market peaks.

Allbridge Core paused its protocol after an attacker exploited its stablecoin liquidity pools, with blockchain tracker Onchain Lens estimating losses exceeding $1 million. 　　The incident adds to a growing number of attacks targeting crypto protocols, with exploits resulting in $57.8 million in losses in July 2026.　　How the Allbridge Exploit Unfolded　　Onchain Lens reported that Allbridge Core suffered an exploit on Solana, resulting in losses of more than $1.1 million.　　According to the firm, the attacker used a $1.12 million USDC flash loan from Kamino to manipulate the protocol‘s USDC/USDT stablecoin pool through a series of rapid swaps, distorting the pool’s ratios before withdrawing liquidity at inflated values.　　The attacker repaid the flash loan within the same transaction.

Buy or Sell？ What Michael Saylors Cryptic New Tweet Means for Bitcoin

Michael Saylor rattled the community cages on X once again with a cryptic post containing a graph showcasing his company‘s countless $BTC purchases completed over the past six years, with the text “What’s next？”　　Although many translated this message as a new hint that Strategy has made a new bitcoin purchase, the reality from the past several weeks tells a different story.　　Whats next？ pic.twitter.com/bNl0xX0obw　　— Michael Saylor (@saylor) July 19, 2026　　Buy or Sell Next？　　The firm‘s co-founder and former CEO has been publishing such posts for years. We didn’t pay much attention to them before, as they were always followed by a major purchase announcement on the next business day. However, this all changed a few weeks ago when, instead of bragging about the latest bitcoin acquisition, Strategy announced its biggest $BTC sale to date by disposing of over 3,500 units.　　The perception changed immediately. It came just a week after the firm had launched the Digital Credit Capital Framework to enhance liquidity and long-term $BTC exposure. The idea was simple – the firm had a USD reserve of $2.55 billion, which was enough to cover 17.4 months of dividend payments. However, it wanted to raise that, and included potential $BTC sales of up

What Happens to Bitcoin if the Fed Raises Rates in July？

With the latest Consumer Price Index data for June already out, all economic eyes have now turned to the United States Federal Reserve and the upcoming FOMC meeting scheduled for the end of July.　　Although inflation has cooled, there are still those pushing for an interest rate hike during the next meeting. The question is: what could happen to $BTC and its price stagnation if thats the case？　　Big Macro Test Ahead？　　The odds declined over the past week or so after the June inflation data showed a substantial drop to 3.5%. While that might be more misleading than it sounds, given the fact that oil prices are up in July due to the ceasefire breakdown, data from CME FedWatch show that experts believe theres an 85% probability that policymakers will leave rates unchanged. In contrast, the odds of a 25-basis-point increase stand at a more modest 15%.　　Those odds shifted after the CPI announcement on Tuesday given the softer-than-expected reading, which reinforces the markets expectation that the Fed will not pivot on its current strategy. Nevertheless, there are some who continue to sound increasingly hawkish, including new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh and Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan.　　Higher interest rates have been seen as

Tether's USDT hits 2-year countdown threatening its position on U.S. crypto platforms

The worlds leading stablecoin by volume, Tethers $USDT, could be shoved out of the U.S. markets if the company doesnt revamp dramatically in the next two years.　　Despite assurances last year from CEO Paolo Ardoino that the stablecoin giant would achieve U.S. compliance for $USDT, the company hasnt yet revealed a sharp turn toward the demands of the Guiding and Establishing National Innovation for U.S. Stablecoins ($GENIUS) Act, which became law one year ago.　　With that consequential anniversary of President Donald Trumps signing of the law passing on Saturday, the industry has marked a surge in stablecoin interest and issuance, plus a wide array of crypto and traditional financial firms pursuing U.S. trust bank charters to ease their stablecoin pathways. But the one-year mark was also supposed to be a deadline for federal financial regulators to have rules in place implementing $GENIUS, and theyve so far fallen short. That could be problematic as experts and industry insiders still reveal some disagreements over how the law should be interpreted.　　At this point, its still two firms battling for market dominance, with a few others — including the issuer tied to President Donald Trump, World Liberty Financial — fighting it out for a very distant
