Crypto journalist Eleanor Terrett posted on the X platform that after the release of President Trump's financial disclosure documents, Senator Gillibrand once again called for advancing ethical reforms to prohibit the president, congressional members, and their spouses from issuing or sponsoring digital assets.The financial disclosure documents show that President Trump earned over $600 million from his Solana Meme coin in 2025. At the time of this announcement, Senator Gillibrand's long-standing position advocating for stronger ethical rules came under more scrutiny, as reports emerged that her son had raised funds to launch a cryptocurrency derivatives exchange.

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) reiterated its support for a regulatory strategy of "containment and a tendency to prohibit" regarding crypto assets in a document submitted to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Finance, stating that "prohibition" remains one of the policy options recognized by the international regulatory framework. The RBI suggested that banks and other regulated financial institutions should not hold, trade, or provide exposure to crypto assets and privately issued stablecoins to avoid potential contagion risks to the financial system.The RBI stated that implementing traditional financial regulation on crypto assets could mislead the market, granting "legitimacy" to speculative assets that lack actual economic value and creating a false sense of security for users. The RBI also warned that the widespread use of stablecoins could undermine India's monetary sovereignty, weaken the transmission mechanism of monetary policy, disrupt the payment system, and pose risks to financial stability. Therefore, it recommended prioritizing the development of sovereign digital payment infrastructure such as Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC). Additionally, the RBI questioned the relevant rankings claiming "India is the country with the highest global crypto adoption rate," arguing that the data from private blockchain analytics firms has methodological flaws. It pointed out that there are currently 54 crypto service providers registered with the FIU in India, with approximately 39.3 million users who have completed KYC verification holding crypto assets worth about 20.437 billion rupees. It should be clearly distinguished between speculative crypto assets and the tokenization of real-world assets (RWA) such as government bonds and corporate bonds to avoid impacting the innovation of financial asset tokenization.

According to The Block, Bernstein reiterated its outperform rating on Circle in a report released on Wednesday, maintaining a target price of $190, representing a potential upside of approximately 203%.Analysts believe that while Open USD shows that the stablecoin sector is widely recognized, it will be difficult in the short term to challenge Circle's network effects and liquidity advantages. Circle's USDC saw a trading volume of $5.3 trillion in the first half of 2026, a significant year-on-year increase, with its trading volume share rising from about 40% in 2025 to approximately 60% currently.At the same time, Bernstein also maintains an outperform rating on Coinbase, with a target price of $330.

According to The Block, Benchmark Equity Research maintains a Buy rating on Strategy and reiterates a target price of $570. This target price still has about a 515% upside compared to Strategy's closing price of $92.68 on Monday.Analyst Mark Palmer stated in the report that the digital credit capital framework launched by Strategy allows it to actively manage both ends of its capital structure based on market conditions, including repurchasing common and preferred stock when needed, selling Bitcoin to meet obligations, and suspending new issuances when the stock price is not at a premium.Palmer believes that this framework marks a shift for Strategy from a past focus on one-way issuance of securities to proactive two-way capital management. He stated, "This is a significant positive for shareholders."The report also noted that this framework addresses market concerns about dilution and enhances flexibility through a structured repurchase plan. Palmer also believes that the authorization to sell up to $1.25 billion worth of Bitcoin is negligible compared to Strategy's reserve of approximately 847,000 BTC.

According to The Block, Benchmark Equity Research maintains a buy rating on Coinbase, with a target price of $270, representing an upside of approximately 59.5% from the current stock price. Analyst Mark Palmer stated that Coinbase's recent system updates clearly demonstrate its rapid transformation from a cyclical crypto broker to an infrastructure platform connecting the on-chain economy with traditional finance.The report highlights Coinbase's product advancements in tokenized U.S. stocks, stock and crypto options, prediction markets, AI investment tools, and agentic payment infrastructure, as well as its prior approval from the CFTC to operate as a Futures Commission Merchant (FCM), allowing it to offer global crypto perpetual contracts and options trading to U.S. clients through Deribit. Benchmark believes these initiatives further confirm that Coinbase is continuously expanding its business boundaries beyond spot crypto trading.

Mike Selig, Chairman of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), reiterated that the review of cryptocurrency perpetual contracts will be conducted on a "single asset" basis. CFTC staff had previously clarified this position in the advisory opinion regarding 24/7 continuous trading, and the regulator will assess the compliance of perpetual products for different underlying assets using this framework.

The bill has not yet passed in the Senate.Senate Republican leader Thune stated that pushing for a permanent ban may face resistance from Democrats. Some House Republicans believe that the expiration of the ban may reopen the space for the Federal Reserve to explore a CBDC. Fed Chairman Kevin Warsh stated that as long as he has the authority to stop it, he will not allow the Fed to advance a CBDC.

Bernstein reiterated its "Outperform" rating on Figure Technology Solutions (FIGR) and maintained a target price of $67, implying about a 72% upside from the current stock price of $38.97. Figure's Q1 2026 performance was strong: loan issuance reached $2.9 billion, a year-on-year increase of 113%; adjusted revenue was $167 million, a year-on-year increase of 92%, exceeding market expectations by 6%; adjusted EBITDA was $82.7 million, with a profit margin of about 50%, slightly above market expectations. However, the GAAP diluted EPS was $0.18, about 9% below expectations, primarily impacted by $26 million in equity incentive expenses.Bernstein's analysis suggests that this performance should reshape the market's perception of Figure, as it is not a traditional credit company, but rather a "tokenization-driven capital market platform," with core profits coming from network fees and operational leverage, and it maintains a pricing model based on a 25x EBITDA valuation for 2027. Additionally, the tokenization ecosystem continues to expand: the yield-bearing security token YLDS reached $598 million (up 80% quarter-on-quarter); the balance of stock lending products was $368 million (up 79%); and the small business loan segment contributed $6 million in revenue. Figure's current stock price is still not far from the 2025 IPO issue price of $36, but there remains a significant gap from the historical high of $78.

According to CoinDesk, real estate investor Grant Cardone stated at the Consensus conference that his company has simultaneously increased its holdings of $100 million in Bitcoin to its corporate treasury as part of a $235 million real estate acquisition.Cardone indicated that this latest allocation is an addition to an earlier Bitcoin purchase made in 2025. At that time, Cardone Capital incorporated 1,000 Bitcoins into its balance sheet, with that position valued slightly above $100 million, bringing the company's total Bitcoin exposure to about $200 million. He believes that this combination strategy of holding income-generating real estate along with Bitcoin will outperform real estate investment trusts (REITs).Cardone stated that traditional REITs can never structurally incorporate Bitcoin into their balance sheets, while his strategy aims to combine stable real estate cash flow with the upside potential of Bitcoin, expecting to achieve returns of 22% to 32%. He mentioned that 80% of the investors in the company's fund had never held Bitcoin before, and this strategy is designed to introduce this asset to crypto newcomers.
