- 17:42Federal Reserve Governor: Underlying inflation is close to target, Fed policy stance is too restrictiveBlockBeats News, December 15, Federal Reserve Governor Milan once again stated that the Fed's policy stance is too restrictive for the economy. He pointed out that the inflation outlook is positive, while some warning signs have appeared in the labor market. Milan said he expects housing inflation to ease as rent increases return to normal levels from their pandemic peaks. He believes that, due to the cooling labor market, service sector inflation is unlikely to face upward pressure. Some drivers of service sector inflation, such as portfolio management fees, reflect statistical anomalies rather than actual price changes felt by consumers. Speaking about the labor market, Milan said: "Experience shows that labor market deterioration can happen very quickly, is nonlinear, and is difficult to reverse." "Part of the reason is that monetary policy has a lag effect of several quarters. Therefore, as I have advocated, easing policy more quickly would appropriately bring us closer to a neutral stance."

- 17:21Circle announces acquisition of Axelar’s initial development team Interop Labs and its intellectual property to accelerate cross-chain interoperability布局ChainCatcher news, USDC issuer Circle announced that it has signed an agreement to acquire the Interop Labs team and its proprietary intellectual property. The acquisition is expected to be completed in early 2026. Circle looks forward to contributing to the broader field of interoperability and will continue to explore opportunities aligned with its vision for an open, interconnected, and scalable on-chain economy. Interop Labs has been a core contributor to Axelar, one of the most advanced frameworks in cross-chain communication and token transfer, and has driven Axelar’s core development together with a growing open-source contributor community. By directly integrating Interop Labs’ talent and technology into Circle, the goal is to accelerate two core initiatives: first, Arc—Circle’s enterprise-grade blockchain designed to be an operating system for the internet economy; and second, the cross-chain transfer protocol. It should be clarified that this transaction only involves the Interop Labs team and its proprietary intellectual property. As the team joins Circle, the Axelar network, foundation, and AXL token will continue to operate independently under community governance, and open-source intellectual property will remain open. Common Prefix, another contributor to the Axelar project, will take over the related work from Interop Labs.
