Germany’s Sparkasse to Offer Crypto Trading by 2026

Germany’s Sparkassen group, including subsidiary DekaBank, will launch Bitcoin and crypto trading by summer 2026, directly via the Sparkasse app. This marks a major shift from its 2021 stance against crypto.

Elon Musk Sounds the Alarm on U.S. Debt

If President Donald Trump truly wants to achieve his economic goals, like lower inflation, reduced rates, and trade balance, a simple solution exists: eliminate the U.S. deficit. Cutting deficit spending would ease Treasury issuance, lowering yields, calming the bond market, and giving the Fed room to cut rates. Ironically, that would even strengthen Trump’s tariff game. As Elon Musk keeps warning about the growing U.S. debt, more people are starting to pay attention. The real solution for the future is clear: spend responsibly. If things don’t change, many believe the country could face bankruptcy—it’s not just a risk, it’s where we’re headed.

Why Crypto Market is Down Today?

The crypto market is down today mainly due to heavy selling by miners, ongoing high interest rates from the US Federal Reserve, and negative sentiment sparked by the public feud between Elon Musk and Donald Trump.

DOGE Pushes for Softer SEC Rules Amid Trump Order

DOGE is reportedly urging the SEC to ease regulations on SPACs and private fund reporting, aiming to lower compliance costs and streamline public listings.

Critics warn the changes could reduce transparency and increase risk, raising concerns about political interference in financial oversight.

Did the Big Beautiful Bill Pass the Senate?

No — as of July 1, 2025, the Senate has not passed the “Big Beautiful Bill.” Republicans remain locked in a marathon “vote‑a‑rama” on amendments, working feverishly to secure a majority. GOP unity is fractured between moderates and conservatives, and key provisions—like state-level AI regulation bans—have already been stripped out. With no final Senate vote yet and the July 4 deadline looming, its passage remains uncertain.
