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

联邦公开市场委员会 (FOMC) 会议纪要临近：比特币和加密货币市场的下一步是什么？

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.

联邦公开市场委员会 (FOMC) 将于美国东部时间 8 月 21 日 14:00 发布会议纪要。在此前的7月会议上，联邦公开市场委员会决定将联邦基金利率稳定在5.25%至5.50%。这一决定符合市场预期，并凸显了美联储对通胀的谨慎态度。

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.

美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔暗示，如果通胀继续下行趋势，可能会降息。市场已消化 9 月份可能降息的可能性，并预计年底前进一步降息。

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 的历史数据显示，比特币的表现与通胀趋势之间存在很强的相关性。通常，当通货膨胀下降时，比特币就会上涨，反之亦然。截至撰写本文时，比特币交易价格为 58,575 美元，过去 24 小时内下跌 1.45%。

Arbitrum’s New Staking Proposal with stARB Token

Arbitrum 使用 stARB 代币的新质押提案

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 去中心化自治组织（DAO）批准了一项为以太坊第 2 层引入 ARB 质押的提案。该提案获得了压倒性的支持，91%的参与选民支持该倡议。

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.

通过实施 ARB 质押，治理将仅积极使用当前 ARB 代币流通供应量的约 10%，即 10 亿流通中的大约 1 亿个 ARB。这项新举措旨在提高选民参与度，并确保 DAO 的决策过程更加安全并能代表更广泛的社区。

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.

质押机制将引入一种流动性质押代币 stARB，它将提供自动复利功能以及与各种 DeFi 协议的兼容性。初始质押奖励将来自 DAO 生成的多个来源，例如排序器费用、MEV 费用、验证器费用、代币通胀和财务多元化。该质押系统预计将于 8 月下旬开始启动，并将在未来几周内提供进一步的更新和具体时间表。

EigenLayer Expands ERC-20 Token Support

EigenLayer 扩展了 ERC-20 代币支持

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 是一个著名的重质押协议，宣布即将在其主网上发布无需许可的代币支持。预计本周晚些时候进行的更新将允许用户重新抵押任何 ERC-20 代币，从而扩大有助于去中心化网络安全的资产。

“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，此功能正在测试网上进行短暂的许可测试阶段。 EigenDA 将是第一个测试和使用无许可令牌支持的 AVS。主网部署是协议级更新，计划于本周进行。对重试者的用户界面支持将在第三季度晚些时候添加。”EigenLayer 团队表示。

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.

此次扩张标志着 EigenLayer 的另一个里程碑，该公司继续主导 DeFi 市场。截至撰写本文时，DefiLlama 数据显示 EigenLayer 是第二大 DeFi 协议，锁定的总价值约为 124 亿美元。

Babylon to Begin Phase 1 of Its Bitcoin Staking Mainnet Launch

Babylon 将开始其比特币质押主网启动的第一阶段

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.

本周，比特币质押协议 Babylon 将开始其比特币质押主网启动的第一阶段。此阶段允许比特币持有者开始锁定他们的 BTC，以便在安全、自我托管的环境中进行质押。质押者可以将其投票权委托给最终确定性提供者，并可以选择在质押到期前解除质押。

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.

初始质押上限设定为 1,000 BTC，对交易规模有严格限制，以鼓励广泛参与。虽然在此阶段不会分配直接的质押奖励，但积分系统将跟踪质押者的活动。该系统旨在为未来的质押阶段奠定基础。
