Bitcoin and Ethereum continue their active decline, falling more than 5% yesterday alone. Currently, Bitcoin is trading at $67,300, having recovered slightly, while Ethereum is attempting to return to $1,900.

Meanwhile, the US securities regulator has made a statement that would have been hard to imagine two years ago. In the SEC's strategic plan draft for the fiscal years 2026–2030, digital assets have been singled out as a distinct strategic objective for the first time.

The regulator has directly acknowledged that the growth of digital assets is outpacing the existing regulatory framework and has set the goal of creating a solid regulatory basis for digital assets and blockchain technologies through a rational, consistent, and principled approach. The document is capped by the thesis from SEC Chairman Paul Atkins: "Blockchain and crypto asset technologies have the potential to revolutionize America's financial infrastructure." Coming from the head of a regulator long associated with strict enforcement actions against crypto, this sounds like a 180-degree turnaround.

Among the specific areas of focus mentioned by the SEC are tokenized offerings and blockchain financial infrastructure as areas where the regulator aims to support capital formation within the legislative framework. Storage, trading, and staking services are also highlighted, which is very positive for the further development of the crypto industry.

As for intraday trading strategies in the cryptocurrency market, the strategy and conditions are described below.
