According to CNN and other media outlets, citing unnamed sources on Friday, U.S. President Donald Trump is expected to appoint Jay Clayton, the current Director of National Intelligence, as the new "AI Tsar", with an official announcement likely to be released in the next three to four days. Notably, Clayton served as Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) from May 2017 to December 2020 during Trump’s first term. He advocated for rule modernization and actively addressed issues including cryptocurrency regulation (classifying crypto assets as securities), cybersecurity, and pandemic-related impacts. Analysts point out that if the appointment goes through, it reflects Trump’s positioning of AI development as a "national security issue" (led by an intelligence chief), leaning toward light regulation or self-regulation, and prioritizing competition and economic growth rather than strict curbs on AI development.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost published a report stating that the total market capitalization of the stablecoin market remains unable to recover effectively, primarily due to insufficient liquidity flowing into the crypto market. Since May, the total stablecoin market cap has decreased by $140 billion, reflecting large-scale capital outflows from the sector. However, the market has improved since September, with the total stablecoin market cap rising by roughly $40 billion to approximately $270 billion as of now. Darkfost further noted that while the stablecoin market cap trend is showing signs of reversal, the current recovery momentum remains relatively limited. To push Bitcoin (BTC) to hit new all-time highs, the market still needs additional liquidity injections.
