Trump: Fed Chairman Powell will not be fired, he just needs to lower interest rates
I hope (the Fed) will lower interest rates. We have a lot of short-term debt, and I like long-term low-interest debt. If we lower interest rates by 1%, it means paying 1% less. I will not fire Fed Chairman Powell, he just needs to lower interest rates, our inflation data is good. I once told Powell that there is no need to keep interest rates at such a high level, and if inflation appears within a year, raise interest rates. (Jinshi)

Crypto KOL AB Kuai.Dong (@_FORAB) published an article analyzing the recent large-scale account blocking of crypto users by the X platform, and believed that the more credible explanation was that this wave of account blocking was aimed at data crawling that did not pass the official API interface. He pointed out that if an enterprise retrieves 200 million tweets per month through the X official interface, it would cost more than $200,000. Many projects such as gmgn, ai16z, and eliza used third-party crawlers to obtain data in order to save costs, resulting in centralized blocking. At the same time, blogger accounts that frequently mention related projects may also be marked as matrix accounts and blocked.
