The U.S. Congress is urging the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to approve the inclusion of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in 401(k) retirement plans. Members of the House Financial Services Committee sent a letter to SEC Chairman Paul Atkins urging the SEC to update securities rules to treat digital assets as an equivalent investment class to other alternative investments in retirement accounts. The letter argues that Americans saving for retirement deserve more investment options, and that current rules are outdated and overly restrictive, preventing millions from accessing new asset classes. Furthermore, the letter emphasizes the need to redefine the criteria for "accredited investors." Current stringent investor eligibility requirements limit participation in parts of the private and alternative investment markets. (Cryptopolitan)

According to ChainCatcher, former Morgan Stanley NFA trader Jeff Park recently commented on the X platform regarding the Federal Reserve's newly announced reserve management-driven purchase plan. Although labeled as 'reserve management,' Park argues that it essentially represents quantitative easing (QE), albeit upgraded to 'qualitative easing.' In a system with ample reserves, these reserves possess perfect balance sheet flexibility due to a 0% risk weight under the Liquidity Coverage Ratio (LCR), surpassing the flexibility of short-term government bonds. This flexibility explains the sudden relaxation of the Supplementary Leverage Ratio (SLR) rules before Thanksgiving and the swift announcement of a $40 billion monthly purchase plan within two weeks before the end of quantitative tightening (QT). In essence, while short-term government bonds are 'near-money,' reserves are considered 'perfect money.' Additionally, Park highlighted that stablecoins currently pose the most urgent 'money quality' issue, underscoring why cryptocurrencies are unlikely to disappear.
