Elizabeth Warren on the Federal Reserve chair nominee Kevin Warsh "It seems he has changed his tactics. Now he's flattering Trump to get his desired position… The Senate should not support Trump's illegal influence on the Federal Reserve by appointing his puppet." Warsh replied that he will not be a puppet of Trump. He also emphasized the need for a new inflation model for the U.S., but did not mention interest rates. $XRP ‌$ONDO ‌$USDC ‌

Caught this - Datavault AI just presented at XRP Tokyo 2026 last week with their RWA tokenization tech. Interesting timing given how Japan's been positioning itself as crypto-friendly on regulation compared to other markets. They're pushing their AI infrastructure for real-world asset tokenization, which honestly makes sense for Japan's market right now. The whole thing around DataValue, DataScore, and their Data Vault Bank AI Agent seems geared toward making illiquid assets more accessible. They're talking about applications across sports, biotech, real estate, energy - basically anywhere you need to tokenize and monetize data securely. What caught my eye is how they're leveraging both AI and blockchain to handle this, positioning it as 'responsible AI' rather than just another tokenization play. Japan's regulatory environment has been pretty welcoming compared to other regions, so this move feels strategic. Curious if this signals more companies looking at APAC as the next growth frontier for blockchain + AI infrastructure.
