U.S. Senate Overwhelmingly Opposes DeFi Broker Bill, Moves to House Voting Stage
The U.S. Senate passed a resolution with a vote of 70-27 to repeal the IRS's expanded broker rules, which were originally intended to cover DeFi. The next step requires a vote in the House, after which the President can sign it into effect, repealing the regulation and preventing the IRS from implementing similar policies in the future.
Previously, U.S. crypto-friendly Senator and Chair of the Senate Banking Committee on Digital Assets, Cynthia Lummis, retweeted a post on X stating, "The White House will support the CRA to repeal the DeFi broker rules," and added: "The IRS's regulations on DeFi fundamentally misunderstand how decentralized technology operates. Wyoming has always been at the forefront of responsible digital asset regulation, and I have witnessed how regulatory clarity—rather than overregulation—promotes innovation. These harsh federal regulations could push U.S. crypto entrepreneurs overseas when we should be nurturing this industry domestically. I am honored to work with Senator Ted Cruz to repeal this attack on the crypto community."
According to insiders, Bitcoin infrastructure development company Blockstream Corp. has secured billions in investment to launch three funds, two of which will be used for crypto lending.

Aave High-Risk Loan Volume Drops by $1 Billion, Liquidation Volume Decreases
According to data from IntoTheBlock, high-risk loans on the Aave mainnet have decreased by nearly $1 billion since the large-scale liquidation event on February 3, and liquidation volumes have also significantly declined. Notably, current market volatility is more severe than in February, which theoretically should lead to more borrowers facing forced liquidation, yet actual liquidation volumes have dropped sharply. This phenomenon can be partly attributed to previous forced liquidations, but a more significant factor may be the overall shift in market sentiment. Many large holders have begun to adopt more cautious strategies, actively deleveraging to reduce risk exposure in response to potential price pressures and market uncertainty.
JPMorgan tracked a 22% drop in the total market value of 14 listed mining companies in February, highlighting the weakening of Bitcoin mining economics. The bank noted that following the announcement of DeepSeek AI and concerns over recent data center capacity demand, the stock prices of Bitcoin mining companies with high-performance computing (HPC) exposure fell. JPMorgan added in its report that Core Scientific (CORZ) performed the best, down 9%, while Greenidge Generation performed the worst, down 36% for the month.

U.S. Treasury Sanctions 49 Bitcoin and Monero Addresses Linked to Dark Web Market Nemesis
According to an announcement from the U.S. Treasury's Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), the U.S. government has sanctioned 49 cryptocurrency addresses controlled by Iranian citizen Behrouz Parsarad, who is accused of being an administrator of the dark web market Nemesis. The sanctioned addresses include 44 Bitcoin and 5 Monero addresses. Before its shutdown, Nemesis had 30,000 active users and facilitated nearly $30 million in drug transactions over three years. According to OFAC, Parsarad profited millions of dollars by charging users transaction fees and is suspected of laundering money for drug traffickers and cybercriminals. Nemesis's transactions included a wide range of illegal activities, such as drugs, personal identity data, forged documents, ransomware, and cybercrime tools (such as phishing attacks and DDoS tools).

El Salvador President: Will Not Stop Accumulating Bitcoin Due to IMF Agreement
El Salvador's Nayib Bukele stated that El Salvador has no intention of stopping its Bitcoin (BTC) purchases, regardless of what the International Monetary Fund (IMF) requests. Bukele posted on X, saying: "'This will all stop in April.' 'This will all stop in June.' 'This will all stop in December.' No, it will not stop. If the world rejects us, and most 'Bitcoin users' abandon us, we will not stop now or ever. Proof of work > proof of complaint." Earlier that day, the IMF released more details about its $3.5 billion agreement with the Latin American country. The IMF claimed that as part of the loan program, it prohibits "the public sector from voluntarily accumulating Bitcoin."
U.S. Commerce Secretary Lutnick stated on Tuesday that the Trump administration may announce a path to tariff reductions on goods from Mexico and Canada as early as tomorrow. In an interview with Fox, Lutnick said, "Officials from Mexico and Canada have been on the phone with me all day trying to indicate that they will do better, and the President is listening, so I think he will reach some agreement with them. This won't be a suspension of tariffs, but I think Trump will compromise with them in some ways, and we are likely to announce this tomorrow." Lutnick indicated that tariffs might be set at "some middle level," and Trump would make some concessions to Canada and Mexico but would not fully back down. Lutnick dismissed the idea that tariffs would be completely lifted, referencing the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) reached during Trump's first term through negotiations. "If those rules are followed, then the President will consider giving you a reduction," he said. "If those rules are not followed, then tariffs will apply." This marks the first public indication since the implementation of tariffs that Trump may waver on this issue. The market is confused, as Trump previously stated that retaliatory tariffs from Canada would immediately trigger the U.S. to "increase equivalent tariffs."
Polymarket data shows a 70% probability that the U.S.-Canada trade war will end before May. The Trump administration imposed a 25% tariff on goods from Canada and Mexico on Tuesday, but Lutnick later hinted at the possibility of negotiations, easing market sentiment and causing the related prediction probability to rise by 20% in a short time. Lutnick stated that Trump hopes to reach an agreement with Canada and Mexico rather than simply suspending tariffs. Following this news, the crypto market rose, with Bitcoin breaking through $87,000.
