Nick Timiraos, the chief economic reporter for The Wall Street Journal and known as the "mouthpiece of the Federal Reserve," recently wrote that Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Warsh is facing intense scrutiny from Congress. On Wednesday local time, four members of the Senate Banking Committee, led by Senator Chris Van Hollen, jointly sent a letter to Warsh, demanding that he publicly disclose all communication details with President Donald Trump.Earlier reports indicated that Warsh had maintained frequent phone contact with Trump since taking office, but the publicly available schedule from the Federal Reserve does not record any related calls during Warsh's early days in office. Lawmakers believe that this "selective transparency" could raise concerns about government interference in monetary policy.Kevin Hassett, the director of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, previously stated that Warsh has long engaged in economic discussions with Trump but claimed that Trump would not pressure the Federal Reserve. Trump later denied the related reports, stating that he had only had a brief conversation with Warsh a few days prior.Currently, the Federal Reserve has stated that it will continue to delay the disclosure of the chairman's schedule according to established rules. The market is watching to see if Warsh will provide additional information and whether this matter will affect public confidence in the independence of the Federal Reserve.

Its "mandatory exercise protocol" is an incentive and commitment mechanism that users voluntarily join, helping to develop exercise habits through verifiable data, without physical compulsion.After the official mainnet launch, core functions such as token staking, rewards, and burning will be executed through on-chain smart contracts, with contract addresses and audit reports to be disclosed gradually. The project plans to support mainstream wearable devices such as Apple Watch, WHOOP, and Xiaomi, Huawei, and will continue to optimize the anti-cheating system. The project team reminds that digital assets carry significant volatility risks, participation does not guarantee returns, and users should refer to official announcements, remaining vigilant against counterfeiting and phishing activities.
