FOMC Minutes Loom: What’s Next for Bitcoin and the Crypto Market?

聯邦公開市場委員會 (FOMC) 會議紀錄臨近：比特幣和加密貨幣市場的下一步是什麼？

The Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) will release its minutes on August 21 at 14:00 ET. In its previous July meeting, the FOMC decided to keep the Fed Funds interest rate steady at 5.25% to 5.50%. This decision aligned with market expectations and underscored the Federal Reserve’s cautious approach toward inflation.

聯邦公開市場委員會 (FOMC) 將於美國東部時間 8 月 21 日 14:00 發布會議紀錄。在先前的7月會議上，聯邦公開市場委員會決定將聯邦基金利率穩定在5.25%至5.50%。這項決定符合市場預期，並凸顯了聯準會對通膨的謹慎態度。

Fed Chair Jerome Powell hinted at a possible rate cut if inflation continues its downward trend. The market has priced in a potential rate reduction in September, with further cuts anticipated by year-end.

聯準會主席鮑威爾暗示，如果通膨繼續下行趨勢，可能會降息。市場已消化 9 月可能降息的可能性，並預計年底前進一步降息。

Historical data from 10x Research shows a strong correlation between Bitcoin’s performance and inflation trends. Typically, Bitcoin rallies when inflation decreases, and vice versa. At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $58,575, reflecting a 1.45% decrease in the last 24 hours.

10x Research 的歷史數據顯示，比特幣的表現與通膨趨勢之間有強烈的相關性。通常，當通貨膨脹下降時，比特幣就會上漲，反之亦然。截至撰寫本文時，比特幣交易價格為 58,575 美元，過去 24 小時內下跌 1.45%。

Arbitrum’s New Staking Proposal with stARB Token

Arbitrum 使用 stARB 代幣的新質押提案

On August 16, the Arbitrum Decentralized Autonomous Organization (DAO) approved a proposal to introduce ARB staking for the Ethereum layer-2. The proposal garnered overwhelming support, with 91% of participating voters backing the initiative.

8 月 16 日，Arbitrum 去中心化自治組織（DAO）批准了一項為以太坊第 2 層引入 ARB 質押的提案。該提案獲得了壓倒性的支持，91%的參與選民支持該倡議。

By implementing ARB staking, the governance will actively use only about 10% of the current circulating supply of ARB tokens — roughly 100 million ARB out of the 1 billion in circulation. This new initiative aims to increase voter participation and ensure that the DAO’s decision-making process is more secure and representative of the broader community.

透過實施 ARB 質押，治理將僅積極使用目前 ARB 代幣流通供應量的約 10%，即 10 億流通中的約 1 億個 ARB。這項新措施旨在提高選民參與度，並確保 DAO 的決策過程更加安全並能代表更廣泛的社區。

The staking mechanism will introduce a liquid staking token, stARB, which will offer auto-compounding features and compatibility with various DeFi protocols. The initial staking rewards will be streamed from multiple DAO-generated sources, such as sequencer fees, MEV fees, validator fees, token inflation, and treasury diversification. The launch of this staking system is expected to commence in late August, with further updates and specific timelines to be provided in the coming weeks.

質押機制將引入一種流動性質押代幣 stARB，它將提供自動複利功能以及與各種 DeFi 協議的兼容性。初始質押獎勵將來自 DAO 產生的多個來源，例如排序器費用、MEV 費用、驗證器費用、代幣通膨和財務多元化。該質押系統預計將於 8 月下旬開始啟動，並將在未來幾週內提供進一步的更新和具體時間表。

EigenLayer Expands ERC-20 Token Support

EigenLayer 擴展了 ERC-20 代幣支持

EigenLayer, a prominent restaking protocol, announced the upcoming release of permissionless token support on its mainnet. This update, expected later this week, will allow users to restake any ERC-20 token, broadening the assets that contribute to the security of decentralized networks.

EigenLayer 是一個著名的重質押協議，宣布即將在其主網上發布無需許可的代幣支持。預計本週稍後進行的更新將允許用戶重新抵押任何 ERC-20 代幣，擴大有助於去中心化網路安全的資產。

“Currently, this feature is on the testnet for a short permissioned testing phase. EigenDA will be the first AVS to test and use permissionless token support. Mainnet deployment, a protocol-level update, is scheduled for [this] week. User Interface support for restakers will be added later in Q3,” the EigenLayer team stated.

「目前，此功能正在測試網路上進行短暫的許可測試階段。 EigenDA 將是第一個測試和使用無許可令牌支援的 AVS。主網部署是協議級更新，計劃於本週進行。對重試者的使用者介面支援將在第三季稍後添加。

This expansion marks another milestone for EigenLayer, which continues to dominate the DeFi market. At the time of writing, DefiLlama data shows EigenLayer is the second-largest DeFi protocol, with a total value locked of approximately $12.4 billion.

此次擴張標誌著 EigenLayer 的另一個里程碑，該公司繼續主導 DeFi 市場。截至本文撰寫時，DefiLlama 數據顯示 EigenLayer 是第二大 DeFi 協議，鎖定的總價值約為 124 億美元。

Babylon to Begin Phase 1 of Its Bitcoin Staking Mainnet Launch

Babylon 將開始其比特幣質押主網啟動的第一階段

This week, Babylon, a Bitcoin staking protocol, will begin phase 1 of its Bitcoin Staking Mainnet Launch. This phase allows Bitcoin holders to start locking their BTC for staking within a secure, self-custodial environment. Stakers can delegate their voting power to a finality provider, with the option to unbond their stake before its expiration.

本週，比特幣質押協議 Babylon 將開始其比特幣質押主網啟動的第一階段。此階段允許比特幣持有者開始鎖定他們的 BTC，以便在安全、自我託管的環境中進行質押。質押者可以將其投票權委託給最終確定性提供者，並可以選擇在質押到期前解除質押。

The initial staking cap is set at 1,000 BTC, with strict limits on transaction sizes to encourage broad participation. While no direct staking rewards will be distributed during this phase, a point system will track stakers’ activities. This system is designed to lay the groundwork for future staking phases.

初始質押上限設定為 1,000 BTC，對交易規模有嚴格限制，以鼓勵廣泛參與。雖然在此階段不會分配直接的質押獎勵，但積分系統將追蹤質押者的活動。該系統旨在為未來的質押階段奠定基礎。
