QCP: US-Japan Joint Intervention in FX Market to Support Yen May Impact Crypto Asset Liquidity
According to QCP Group, the US Treasury, via the New York Fed, jointly purchased yen with the Japanese Ministry of Finance last Friday, marking the first US-Japan joint foreign exchange intervention action specifically to support the yen since 1998. Meanwhile, the US 30-year Treasury yield briefly rose to about 5.27%, hitting a new high since 2007, before falling back to 5.24%. QCP pointed out that the transmission path of this intervention to the crypto market mainly unfolds through yen carry trades—rapid yen appreciation may force investors holding yen funding positions to deleverage and buy back yen, subsequently affecting risk assets including BTC and ETH, reenacting the market volatility triggered by carry trade unwinding in August 2024. QCP reminded that current macro monitoring indicators should take the USD/JPY exchange rate, Japan funding costs, and US long-end Treasury yields into consideration; fiscal policy operations are increasingly becoming an important variable affecting the direction of global liquidity.

Analysts: US-Japan Joint Intervention Raises Risks for Yen Short Sellers, but Sustained Yen Appreciation Still Needs Fundamental Support
: Multiple market analysts have stated that after the US joined Japan in intervening in the yen, shorting the yen now carries higher risks.Analysts pointed out that the joint US-Japan action has enhanced the credibility of the authorities' efforts to stabilize the yen, making it more difficult for the market to persistently bet against the currency. However, relying solely on currency intervention is unlikely to change long-term trends. Sustained yen strength will still require fundamental support, such as further policy tightening by the Bank of Japan, a decline in US yields, or an improvement in Japan's fiscal outlook. Some analysts believe that a stronger yen could put pressure on Japan's export-dependent companies and stock market, while if the intervention falls short of expectations, it could also raise concerns about further yen depreciation.

44 State Attorneys General Send Joint Letter to CFTC: Regulatory Authority Over Sports Prediction Markets Does Not Belong to Federal Government
According to The Block, 44 state attorneys general led by Ohio Attorney General Andy Wilson jointly submitted a public comment letter to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), stating that the CFTC's proposed rules exceed the authority granted by the Commodity Exchange Act and requesting them to redraft new rules compliant with the Constitution. The letter emphasized that sports betting has historically fallen under state-level regulatory jurisdiction, and the federal government has never intervened. Meanwhile, the NFL also wrote to CFTC Chairman Michael Selig, requesting to curb the expansion of sports prediction markets, arguing that the current proposed rules are insufficient to protect the integrity of events. Currently, the legal battle between states and the CFTC continues to intensify: a Minnesota court ruled to suspend the enforcement of the state's prediction market ban, allowing Kalshi and Polymarket to continue operations; however, a New York federal judge again refused to block New York State from enforcing gambling laws against Kalshi, and Michigan and Washington states have also issued temporary injunctions restricting Kalshi from conducting sports event contract business locally.
