“title”: “Vanguard Reverses Crypto ETF Stance as Regulatory Scrutiny Intensifies”,
“content”: “Major cryptocurrencies rebounded from recent losses, with Bitcoin trading near $87,400 and other leading assets showing modest gains. In a significant policy reversal, investment giant Vanguard announced it will now permit trading of spot Bitcoin ETFs and other cryptocurrency-related funds on its brokerage platform, ending its previous prohibition. This move opens a substantial new channel for institutional and retail access to regulated crypto investment products.\n\nRegulatory developments dominated the landscape. Federal Reserve Vice Chair Michelle Bowman confirmed that banking regulators are actively developing a framework for stablecoin oversight. Concurrently, a House Republican report alleged coordinated efforts by multiple federal agencies—including the Fed, FDIC, OCC, and SEC—to restrict banking access for digital asset firms through informal pressure and guidance, a campaign dubbed ‘Operation Chokepoint 2.0.’\n\nIn corporate news, Ripple secured a major payments institution license in Singapore, enabling expanded XRP and RLUSD payment services in the region. Separately, a lawsuit was filed against Coinbase executives and investor Marc Andreessen, alleging an insider trading scheme. Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin raised concerns about proposed governance changes to privacy coin Zcash, warning that a shift toward token-based voting could compromise its core privacy features.”,
