Adrienne A. Harris, the head of the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS), announced on Wednesday that the department has strengthened its guidance on cryptocurrency listings and delistings to better protect cryptocurrency investors throughout the state.

The updated guidelines will require cryptocurrency companies to submit their token listing and delisting policies for NYDFS approval. The statement said that these companies' policies will be measured against stricter risk assessment criteria to ensure that delistings are conducted in an orderly manner, protecting consumers and minimizing market disruption. The new rules also require companies to provide advance payments for token delistings and be more transparent with customers about canceling support for cryptocurrencies that they have previously listed.

  • Powell signals support for further rate cuts as U.S. job market cools

    Federal Reserve Chairman Powell warned on Tuesday that the U.S. labor market is showing further signs of distress, suggesting he may be prepared to support another rate cut later this month. Powell pointed out, "The downside risks to employment have increased." This is the strongest hint so far that Fed officials believe they have enough evidence to support another 25 basis point cut in U.S. borrowing costs. Powell added that even without new data from the Labor Department (delayed due to the government shutdown), private sector employment indicators and internal Fed research provide enough reason to suggest that the labor market is cooling off. "The available evidence" suggests that "layoffs and hiring are still low," while "household perceptions of job opportunities and businesses' perceptions of hiring difficulties continue to decline." These comments indicate that Powell is becoming more dovish on monetary policy.
