PANews, January 27—According to Decrypt, the Australian Securities and Investments Commission has listed regulatory loopholes in cryptocurrency as one of its key risks for 2026. The agency pointed out that the rapid growth of crypto, payment, and artificial intelligence companies operating at the regulatory margins could expose consumers to risks such as unlicensed advice and misleading conduct. This warning comes as Australia advances the “2025 Corporations Amendment (Digital Assets Framework) Bill,” which aims to establish the country’s first regulatory framework for companies that custody client digital assets, requiring relevant platforms to hold an Australian Financial Services License. ASIC stated that although some companies legally operate outside the current regulatory scope, there are also entities intentionally evading regulation, exacerbating regulatory uncertainty.

ChainCatcher News, according to Golden Ten Data, Michael Krautzberger, Chief Investment Officer of Public Markets at Allianz Global Investors, stated that the Federal Reserve is expected to keep interest rates unchanged this week. Except for dovish governor Milan who may dissent, other voting members will support this decision. He pointed out that the market's focus will shift to Powell's response to challenges regarding the Federal Reserve's independence during the press conference. Krautzberger believes that this statement may have a greater impact on the market than the interest rate decision itself.
