1. JP Morgan: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged and reduce the total monthly purchase of Japanese government bonds from 5.7 trillion yen to 5.1 trillion to 5.3 trillion yen. 2. UBS Group: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged, with only a 15 basis point increase in October, followed by three more increases of 25 basis points each, raising interest rates to 1% next year. 3. HSBC: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged, with the possibility of an interest rate hike in July. This meeting is expected to involve more communication on bond purchases, and the reduction in bond purchases is not expected to attract widespread attention. 4. Standard Bank: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged while considering reducing the scale of bond purchases. If the reduction in the purchase of new bonds exceeds the amount of maturing government bonds, it would mean quantitative tightening (QT). 5. Sumitomo Mitsui: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged. If the Bank of Japan considers an interest rate hike in July, this meeting is likely to give a hint; otherwise, the probability of an interest rate hike in July may weaken. 6. Capital Economics: Bank of Japan is expected to keep interest rates unchanged and may raise rates in July, which would be the last rate hike of the year. It is highly likely that an announcement will be made to reduce the purchase of Japanese government bonds. 7. ANZ Bank: Bank of Japan is expected to raise interest rates by 15 basis points and raise rates by another 25 basis points in October. Quantitative tightening will be on the agenda, and any reduction in bond purchases is unlikely to be a fixed scale. 8. Natixis: Bank of Japan is expected to raise interest rates as early as today. Due to the moderate rate hike, it will not provide support for the yen. The forecast for the USD/JPY exchange rate at the end of the year is 150.

Odaily Planet Daily News - Kepala Investasi Combine Capital, Keegan Toci, mengatakan, "Pendapat saya mungkin tidak populer di pasar, tetapi FIT 21 sebaiknya ditolak oleh Senat." Keegan menjelaskan bahwa penghapusan suara SAB 121 oleh Kongres dan konsesi SEC terhadap ETF Ethereum spot merupakan kemenangan pengaturan yang sebenarnya bagi industri enkripsi, karena langkah-langkah ini dapat mencegah intervensi berlebihan yang tidak logis. Namun, FIT 21 berbeda, pasar komoditas spot dan mata uang pada dasarnya tidak diatur, dan tanggung jawab CFTC adalah mengatur instrumen derivatif yang terkait dengan pasar-pasar ini (bukan spot), namun proposal FIT 21 mengundang CFTC untuk memperluas lingkup pengaturan mereka yang tidak perlu, padahal ini adalah lembaga yang memiliki sumber daya lebih sedikit dan catatan yang buruk dalam tindakan penegakan enkripsi, sementara SEC tetap mempertahankan kemampuan pengaturan terhadap sebagian aset digital. Selain itu, RUU FIT 21 juga memiliki celah besar dalam mencakup DeFi dan terdapat banyak ketidakpastian pengaturan. Keegan menambahkan bahwa kedua belah pihak sepakat untuk membangun kerangka regulasi baru untuk mata uang kripto, ini adalah sinyal positif, terutama karena 71 anggota Partai Demokrat memilih mendukung lintas partai. Namun, FIT 21 sendiri bukanlah kerangka yang kita inginkan, jadi jika tidak lulus dalam pemungutan suara di Senat, tidak perlu khawatir. Sebelumnya, kabar yang beredar adalah bahwa Dewan Perwakilan Rakyat Amerika Serikat telah memberikan suara mendukung RUU FIT 21.

Odaily Planet Daily News reports that Bloomberg analyst Eric Balchunas has raised the probability of spot Ethereum ETF approval from 25% to 75%. There have been rumors this afternoon that the SEC might make a 180-degree turn on this issue (which is becoming increasingly politicized), so everyone is now preparing desperately (like us, others also believe it will be rejected). Please refer to Nate's tweet for a possible sequence of events (but again, I would like to emphasize that the probability is capped at 75% until more evidence is seen, such as application updates).

Odaily Planet Daily News, Jefferson, a member of the Federal Reserve, said that he would not comment on monetary policy and economic prospects. Clear communication is crucial for central banks. Sometimes, the Fed's communication may be misunderstood, and proactive statements may create rather than reduce uncertainty. (Jinshi)
