Dear Reader,
There are 18,347 publicly traded cryptocurrencies in the market.
And ONLY one is as poised for profit and deeply undervalued as THIS.
It generates $700 million more in protocol revenue than most DeFi platforms... $1.2 billion more in total value locked than many traditional banks... and over $1 billion more in annual fees than competing protocols.
Yet... this cryptocurrency trades at a fraction of the valuation of all of them.
It is 20 TIMES cheaper than comparable DeFi tokens.
But all that could soon change.
Two things have happened.
1.) Donald Trump's family publicly backed this protocol personally...
2.) The protocol entered a multi-year, multi-billion dollar partnership with major Wall Street institutions.
If there's one cryptocurrency you should buy in this market, this token might just be it.
Get the whole story on this "crypto market unicorn" right here.
Sincerely,
Bryce Paul

Inflation or jobs: Federal Reserve officials are divided over competing concerns
Written by The Associated Press. Published 8/14/2025.
WASHINGTON (AP) — One major question will be front and center for Federal Reserve policymakers as they prepare for an annual conference in Jackson, Wyoming next week and a crucial policy meeting in September: Which is a bigger problem for the economy right now, stubborn inflation or slower hiring?
Weak job gains since April have pushed some officials toward supporting a cut in the Fed's key rate as soon as next month, but speeches and comments by other Fed policymakers show that inflation is still a concern.
That could make the Fed's ultimate move at its September 16-17 meeting a close call. There will be another jobs report and another inflation report before then, and both will likely heavily influence the decision of whether to cut or not. The uncertainty also means that Fed Chair Jerome Powell's speech next Friday in Jackson will be closely watched for any clues about next steps.
If Fed officials worry more that unemployment will start to rise and the economy falter, they are more likely to reduce their rate in order lower borrowing costs and spur borrowing and spending. Yet if their concerns grow that inflation will stay high or worsen as tariffs ripple across global supply chains, they will lean more towards keeping borrowing costs high to cool the economy and lower prices. The rate currently stands at 4.3%.
Wall Street investors are pretty certain — for now — that the central bank will reduce rates in September, with futures prices putting the odds of a cut at 93%, according to CME Fedwatch.
Those odds jumped after the monthly jobs report Aug. 1 showed that hiring was sluggish in July and was much lower than previously estimated in May and June. Average job gains over those three months fell to just 35,000, down from 123,000 a year ago.
And Tuesday's inflation report, which showed only a mild pickup in inflation at the consumer level and limited signs that tariffs were pushing goods prices higher, underscored the view of some officials that they could put inflation concerns aside and focus on shoring up the job market instead.
"With underlying inflation on a sustained trajectory toward 2%, softness in aggregate demand, and signs of fragility in the labor market, I think that we should focus on risks to our employment mandate," Michelle Bowman, a member of the Fed's governing board, said last week.
Yet Austan Goolsbee, president of the Federal Reserve's Chicago branch, downplayed the weakness in hiring in remarks to reporters Wednesday. The slowdown in job gains could partly reflect the drop in immigration stemming from President Donald Trump's border crackdown, Goolsbee said, rather than a weaker economy. He also pointed to the still-low unemployment rate of 4.2% as evidence that the job market is solid.
This week's inflation report included some warning signs, Goolsbee added: Prices of many services that aren't affected by tariffs, such as dental care and air fares, jumped, a sign that inflation may not be in check.
"That was the most concerning thing in the inflation report, and if that persisted, we would have a hard time getting back to 2%," Goolsbee said, referring to the central bank's inflation goal. "I am still hopeful that will not be a lasting problem."
Fed officials also disagree on how tariffs will affect inflation going forward. Many increasingly believe the duties will result in simply a one-time boost to prices that will quickly fade and not lead to ongoing inflation.
"Tariffs will boost inflation in the near term, but likely not in a persistent way" that would require the Fed to keep rates elevated, Mary Daly, president of the Fed's San Francisco branch, said in a recent speech.
Daly also said the labor market has "softened" and suggested the Fed "will likely need to adjust policy in the coming months."
However, Raphael Bostic, president of the Fed's Atlanta branch, said Wednesday that the tariffs could lead to longer-term inflation if they cause more manufacturers to shift output from lower-cost locations overseas back to the United States, or to other countries with higher wages. Such a change would be more than just a one-time shift.
"You're going to see fundamental structural changes if this is successful," Bostic said in remarks in Red Bay, Alabama. "It is actually a different economy."
In that scenario, Bostic said, he would prefer to wait "until we have a little more clarity." And he added that with unemployment low, "we have the luxury to do that."
Thursday's July wholesale price report, which showed a sharp jump in goods and services prices before they reach the consumer, did make one move less likely: A half-point cut in September, as suggested by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.
Alberto Musalem, president of the Fed's St. Louis branch, who votes on Fed policy this year, said that a reduction of that size is "unsupported by the current state of the economy, and the outlook for the economy," in an interview on CNBC.
Tim Duy, an economist at SGH Macro, said Thursday that the Fed may have to raise its inflation forecast at its September meeting when it provides its latest set of quarterly economic projections. The central bank's policymakers currently expect inflation, excluding volatile food and energy, to reach 3.1% by the end of this year, yet inflation is already near that level.
Cutting rates at the September meeting would be hard for the Fed if it is also forecasting higher inflation, Duy said.
"There are things that could happen that would push the Fed off the path" toward a rate cut, he said. "We're not paying adequate attention to those risks."
