The last time the Fed cut rates was during President Biden’s term, when the central bank lowered rates on Dec. 18, 2024, bringing the federal funds rate (FFR) to its current range of 4.25%–4.50%. Since then, the Fed has been stuck in neutral, refusing to budge even as other central banks around the world have eased 🌎.
The 61-page complaint, Maxwell v. Sarris, filed on 9 July 2025 in the US District Court for the Southern District of New York, makes for thrilling reading, replete as it is with allegations of unregistered broker-dealers, misleading offering exemptions, and a failure to deliver legal title to any of the underlying shares. It’s a veritable smorgasbord of financial malfeasance, and one can hardly wait to see how it all plays out.
Do prepare yourself (preferably with a croissant in one hand and anti-anxiety meds in the other) for yet another Bitcoin (BTC) update—the saga continues! Starring Max Keiser, a man with more opinions than my mum reading my diary.

Triple-digit price gains within 24 hours are nothing unusual in the world of crypto. The lesser-known altcoin Hyperlane (HYPER) proved that narrative, skyrocketing roughly 170% within that timeframe to almost match its all-time high of $0.35. Its market capitalization, which stood at around $20 million yesterday (July 9), has surged past $55 million.
The news comes on the heels of Circle’s application to establish a national trust bank in the US, a move that would see the firm overseeing the USDC reserve on behalf of its US issuer. The US Senate, in a rare moment of clarity, passed the GENIUS Act, a stablecoin regulation bill, in mid-June, which promises to bring legal clarity to the world of stablecoin issuers. One can only hope it’s more entertaining than the average legal document.
