Harris supports policies that will help the crypto industry continue to grow
Brian Nelson, a policy adviser to Kamala Harris’s campaign, said she would support measures to help grow digital assets, highlighting efforts to woo the nascent cryptocurrency industry to expand its political influence.
“She’s going to support policies that ensure that emerging technologies and industries like these can continue to grow,” Nelson said Wednesday during a Bloomberg News roundtable at the Democratic National Convention when asked about Harris’ efforts to engage with the crypto community.
Harris’ team has said it remains interested in implementing safeguards in the industry, even though it has seen a number of high-profile companies fail.“Obviously, they’ve said what the industry needs is stable rules, rules of the road,” Nelson said, referring to a speech Harris gave last week laying out the initial pillars of her economic policy.

U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics: U.S. nonfarm payrolls for March 2024 revised down by 818,000
U.S. job growth for the full year through March may not have been as strong as previously reported, according to government data released on Wednesday. Nonfarm payrolls are likely to have fallen by 818,000 in the 12 months through March, or about 68,000 a month, according to preliminary baseline revisions from the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Some agencies had previously predicted a drop of up to 1 million. The final revised data will be released early next year. Some economists say the initial employment data may have been inflated by a variety of factors, including adjustments for business creation and closures, and how unauthorized immigrant workers are counted. It is worth noting that the data, originally scheduled for release at 10 p.m. Beijing time, was delayed by more than 30 minutes. It is rare for a small episode to occur on the release schedule, and it is not clear what happened. (Jinshi)

U.S. Senator Cynthia Lummis said on Wednesday that the window for encryption legislation in 2024 is shrinking, but it is still possible for some bills to pass this year.
While neither she nor Sen. Tim Scott, R-Vt., who also spoke at the SALT Wyoming Symposium ahead of the Fed’s annual Jackson Hole conference, delved into the details of any particular bill, she pointed to the work of the Senate Agriculture Committee.
Lummis and Scott also appealed to voters during their brief appearance on SALT, saying Republicans are more supportive of crypto industry interests than Democrats. Scott is the top Republican on the Senate Banking Committee and has been quiet on cryptocurrencies during his tenure as a senior member of the committee. However, at last months Bitcoin Nashville conference, he called for more lenient regulators and said he would support crypto-friendly legislation.
Scott, who would become chairman if control of the Senate falls to Republicans, on Wednesday floated the possibility of creating a subcommittee focused on digital assets if he holds that position, “so we can get more clarity into the conversation, have more hearings on banking, so we can get things done faster.

Economist Shivaan Tandon: The Fed may cut interest rates more than other countries
Capital Economics said the dollar could fall further in the coming years as it remains relatively expensive and faces the impact of unfavorable interest rate differentials and reduced safe-haven demand. The Federal Reserve is likely to cut interest rates more than other countries, meaning interest rate differentials may continue to be unfavorable to the United States, economist Shivaan Tandon said in the report. We also expect risk appetite to remain strong, which suggests that the dollar will continue to be under pressure. Despite recession concerns, the US economy looks set to achieve a soft landing. Capital Economics expects the dollar index DXY to fall to 98 by the end of 2025.
