Bitcoin Breaks $30,000; Fed Chair Powell Says Central Bank Needs ‘Robust’ Role Overseeing Stablecoins

Jennifer Sanansie gives a news update on "CoinDesk Daily." Bitcoin has broken $30,000 for the first time in over a year amid bullish sentiment in the market following a number of traditional finance (TradFi) players pushing further into crypto. Plus, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell argues for strong central-bank oversight in stablecoin regulations, saying "the ultimate source of credibility in money is the central bank," in front of the House Financial Services Committee. Separately, crypto exchange Binance will expand its zero-fee trading promotion to all trueUSD (TUSD) trading pairs starting June 30. And, decentralized finance (DeFi) infrastructure provider, Maverick Protocol, has raised $9 million in funding.
