3 Bank CEOs to Meet US Senators for Crypto Regulation Talks as Bitcoin Hangs at $90K

2025/12/09 05:11

Citigroup CEO Jane Fraser, Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan and Wells Fargo CEO Charlie Scharf are scheduled to meet senators on Thursday for a closed-door discussion on crypto market structure legislation.

Punchbowl News’ The Vault team, which tracks financial policy in Washington, circulated details of the invitation in an X post on Monday. He described the imminent meeting as part of a broader effort for banks, regulators, lawmakers and key stakeholders to deliberate on ongoing regulatory proposals.

On Sunday, Semafor congressional reporter Eleanor Mueller mentioned that the provision for the United States government to launch a Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) is no longer in the draft, while responding to the new NDAA package deal published by Politico defense reporter Connor O’Brien.

The absence of the CBDC ban adds further relevance to Thursday’s session, with senators expected to press bank leaders on how traditional financial institutions intend to navigate a regulatory landscape that remains unsettled.

The US enacted landmark GENIUS act in July 2025, creating a framework for stablecoin regulations in the country. However, lawmakers continue to debate how banks should handle digital-asset custody, the supervision of stablecoin reserves and the role the Federal Reserve should play in tokenized-market infrastructure.

The imbalance between volume spike and mild increase in open interest indicates that most activity came from intraday rotations rather than conviction-driven positioning, suggesting traders prefer to await clarity from Washington as the week unfolds before placing larger directional bets.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.
