The post BREAKING: FED’s Much-Anticipated Beige Book Has Been Released – Here’s What You Need to Know appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Fed’s Beige Book report, which provides updated assessments of the regional economic outlook, has been released. The report notes that economic activity across the country has remained largely stable, but regional disparities are evident. According to the Fed, most regions reported no significant change in economic activity compared to the previous report, while two regions saw a slight contraction and one a limited increase. Some contacts noted increasing risks that economic activity could slow in the coming months, but moderate optimism was observed, particularly in the manufacturing sector. Wage increases were generally modest, while the labor market continued to weaken. The report found that employment had declined slightly recently, with nearly half of the regions reporting weak labor demand. A similar picture emerges on the pricing front. Beige Book reported that price increases continued at a moderate level during the reporting period. A striking trend has emerged in companies’ approaches to workforce management. The Fed reported that despite the increase in layoff announcements, companies in many regions are slowing down hiring, filling vacant positions without creating new jobs, and reducing staff through natural attrition rather than resorting to outright layoffs. This suggests that employers are pursuing a “cautious hiring strategy” amidst uncertainty. Prices for some materials have reportedly fallen in many regions, attributed to weak demand, tariff postponements, or lower tariff rates. Going forward, companies expect cost pressures to increase, but upcoming pricing plans vary by industry. Multiple regions reported that corporate profit margins have narrowed or that businesses may come under financial pressure due to tariffs. It was stated that cost pressures in the manufacturing and retail sectors increased largely due to the impact of tariff policies. *This is not investment advice.

BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
