Breaking News: Bank of America to Launch Its Own Stablecoin, CEO Confirms!

One of the U.S.'s biggest investment banks is entering the stablecoin race. CEO Brian Moynihan has confirmed plans to issue a Bank of America stablecoin—signaling a major leap in TradFi’s crypto adoption.

Rumors of a joint launch with JPMorgan circulated last month but never materialized. Now, BoA may be going solo.

Amid rising institutional interest and Trump’s remarks on stablecoins securing dollar dominance, BoA’s move could reshape the crypto landscape.

Macro-Economic Update

U.S Inflation Creeps Up in May, But Stays Below Expectations

U.S. inflation inched up to 2.4% in May, the first rise in four months, but still came in below the expected 2.5%. Prices rose for food, transportation, and used cars, while shelter costs eased and energy prices kept falling, especially gas and fuel oil. Core inflation stayed steady at 2.8%, signaling that underlying price pressures remain tame. Overall, inflation is rising just a bit, but not enough to worry markets or change the Fed’s cautious stance.

Wallet Inflows & Outflows Weekly Report

Top 2 Cryptocurrencies (BTC, ETH)

Bitcoin Wallets See Outflows as Ethereum Attracts Fresh Capital

This week, Bitcoin wallets experienced steady outflows, with only two days showing inflows, suggesting profit-taking and a pause in new capital entering the market. 

In contrast, Ethereum told a different story, registering multiple days of positive inflows. This divergence hints at a possible portfolio rotation, with investors shifting funds from Bitcoin to Ethereum, which is still trading at a relative discount. 

Keep an eye on this trend: if the rotation gains momentum, it could reignite interest in altcoins just as Bitcoin starts to cool off.

Economic Trends Affecting Crypto Markets

Crypto Shows Resilience Amid Global Uncertainty

Crypto markets held steady amid shifting macro and geopolitical dynamics. Bitcoin traded between $104K and $110K, while Ethereum neared $2.8K before a modest pullback. 

Cooler U.S. inflation data initially lifted sentiment, but rising Middle East tensions triggered volatility. Still, institutional inflows remained strong, especially into Ethereum, which saw $296M in new capital. 

Progress on crypto regulation in the U.S. and the UK also supported market confidence, and investors are closely watching for signals that could drive the next big move in crypto.

Key Macroeconomic Insights

Trade Talks Cool Tensions, But Geopolitical Risks Heat Up

While Donald Trump celebrated a breakthrough in U.S.-China trade talks, including a deal to resume rare-earth magnet exports and ease student visa curbs, Xi Jinping quietly secured a strategic win, gaining time and lowering the risk of new tariffs or tech restrictions. 

But markets were quickly jolted by fresh geopolitical tensions: Israel launched strikes on Iran’s nuclear and missile programs, raising fears of a broader Middle East conflict. 

Oil futures spiked sharply, marking their biggest intraday gain since the early days of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. With key central bank meetings coming up next week, including the Fed, BoJ, and BoE, this surge in energy prices adds new uncertainty to the inflation outlook, especially if Iran retaliates.
