It actually emerged later as an unexpected, but exciting, last-minute addition,” Kulechov added. The Aave CEO explained the reinvestment feature further as one that allows the protocol to deploy pool float into low-risk, highly liquid yield strategies, creating additional efficiency for LPs. The feature is somewhat inspired by Ethena’s rebalance to USDtb but applied natively within Aave. The Aave team shared the launch roadmap for the Aave upgrade on Sept. 15, revealing a recent V4 Development Update.

The post SEC Drops Crypto from 2026 Examination Priorities appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. SEC’s 2026 priorities drop digital assets from examination focus. Chair Paul Atkins signals a friendlier, dialogue-based regulatory tone. The Securities and Exchange Commission has removed digital assets from its examination priorities, which marks a major shift away from regulation. The Division of Examinations at the agency released its fiscal 2026 priorities, which lack a discrete section related to crypto, when previously issued agendas had sections devoted to crypto. The absence of a crypto section geometry supports a return to regulatory regimes associated with the pro-crypto policy of the Trump Administration as well as the deregulatory policy regarding the industry more generally. Regulatory Shift Under New Leadership Paul​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ Atkins, SEC Chair, stated that examinations should be a means to open a positive dialogue between the SEC and the regulated entities rather than a tool to punish them. The Division of Examinations will be focusing their energies on issues related to fiduciary duty, custody practices, and customer information protection in 2026. The agency said that its priorities list does not include all the areas of the examinations for the year even though crypto was not directly mentioned.  Not pointing to crypto is a significant change from the time of Gary Gensler, when the SEC was very clear about targeting the activities related to digital assets. The priorities for that year included the examination of spot Bitcoin and Ethereum exchange-traded funds as well as other crypto asset services and recommendations. The 2023 examination document also had a separate section devoted to crypto assets and the emerging trends in financial ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌technology. Even​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ though the SEC decided not to emphasize crypto as one of its main priorities, the agency will continue to keep an eye on new technologies and their risks. In the new priorities document, which was released this Monday, the commission paid special…

The post XAG/USD recovers above $50 while investors await US NFP data appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Silver price (XAG/USD) claws back its early losses and turns slightly positive to near $50.30 during the European trading session on Tuesday. The white metal attracts bids as investors turn cautious ahead of the United States (US) Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) data for September, which will be releasing on Thursday. Investors await the US NFP data to get fresh cues on the current status of the labor market. Financial market participants lack information regarding the job market status as major economic releases were halted in last almost seven weeks due to federal shutdown. Meanwhile, the market sentiment remains risk-averse amid receding speculation favoring further interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve (Fed) this year. At the press time, S&P 500 futures trade 0.25% lower, exhibiting a risk-off mood. According to the CME FedWatch tool, the probability of the Fed to cut interest rates by 25 basis points (bps) to 3.50%-3.75% in the December meeting has diminished to 43% from 62.4% seen a week ago. Technically, the scenario of easing Fed dovish bets is unfavourable for the Silver price, given that a pause in the Fed’s monetary easing campaign bodes poorly for non-yielding assets. Silver technical analysis Silver price finds cushion after correcting to near the 20-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) around $49.70. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) returns inside the 40.00-60.00 range, suggesting indecisiveness among investors about the near-term outlook.
