Senator Cynthia Lummis has indeed introduced a bill titled the "Bitcoin Act of 2024," which outlines a plan for the U.S. to purchase 1 million BTC over the next 5 years.
This isn't 1 million dollars; we're talking about 1 million BTC, roughly 5% of the total supply.
🚨 Following the latest interest rate decision in the U.S. and FOMC data, the probability of cuts in September is approaching 100%.
It's highly unlikely that the Fed will act to surprise the market, and we'll probably see the start of the monetary easing cycle in two months.
🚨 Bank of England cuts interest rates by 0.25%, the first cut since 2020.

Nicolás Maduro and the thug Diosdado Cabello say that Israel, Elon Musk, and Javier Milei want to invade Venezuela to set up a "biochemical weapons laboratory." Maduro's dictatorship has completely lost its mind and has descended into madness.

🚨 Iran 🇮🇷 / Israel 🇮🇱: Iran's Supreme Leader, Ali Khamenei, has ordered the Iranian Armed Forces to launch a Direct Attack against Israel in retaliation for the assassination last night of the Chief Political Leader of Hamas, Ismail Haniyeh, in Tehran.
🚨 Venezuela 🇻🇪 / USA 🇺🇸:
US patience with Venezuela is "running out" after election, says Harris/Biden administration advisor.
"I want to emphasize that our patience, and that of the international community, is running out," said National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby. "The wait for Venezuelan electoral authorities to be honest and release complete and detailed data about this election so everyone can see the results is running out."
🚨 Brazil 🇧🇷 / Lebanon 🇱🇧 / Israel 🇮🇱
The Itamaraty issued a statement regarding the Israeli attack on a Hezbollah base:
"The Brazilian government condemns the airstrike conducted by Israel yesterday, July 30, in a residential area of Beirut.
Brazil is following with extreme concern the escalation of hostilities between Israel and the armed wing of the Lebanese party Hezbollah. The continuation of the cycle of attacks and retaliations leads to a spiral of violence and aggression with increasingly severe damage, especially to the civilian populations of both countries.
Therefore, it urges the Israeli authorities and Hezbollah to refrain from actions that could expand the conflict, with unpredictable consequences for the stability of the Middle East and international security.
The Brazilian government calls on the international community to use all available diplomatic tools to immediately contain the worsening of the conflict."
🚨 Dictator Nicolás Maduro has challenged Elon Musk to a hand-to-hand fight. According to the Venezuelan dictator, Musk is the "arch-enemy of Venezuela" and a member of a "far-right fascist alliance" that wants to dominate Venezuela.
