Cynthia Lummis, a US senator friendly to encryption and chairman of the US Senate Banking Committee's digital asset subcommittee, has resubmitted a new version of the Bitcoin Reserve Act. The latest version will allow the US government to hold more than 1 million bitcoins, as long as these bitcoins are obtained through legal means other than direct purchase, such as civil or criminal forfeiture, gift to the United States, or transfer from a federal agency. The previous version of the bill required a total acquisition of 1 million bitcoins within five years. In addition, the new bill also establishes an evaluation process for Bitcoin fork assets and airdropped assets in reserves, requiring all fork assets to be held in reserves and not sold or disposed of within five years unless authorized by law.

the US Bureau of Labor Statistics will release the Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for February at 20:30 tonight (Beijing time). The market expects inflation to ease slightly but still remain above the Federal Reserve's target.

despite the rebound in Bitcoin prices, Presto Research analyst Min Jung believes that Tuesday's increase only represents a slight correction after the recent sharp decline in the market. "We see the market recovering, but it is more like a slight rebound after yesterday's crash, with no dominant news driving this trend," Jung said. "In addition, the stock market closed slightly lower that day, rather than another major sell-off." Investors are now focusing on the release of the U.S. Consumer Price Index on Wednesday, which is a key indicator of inflation. "Today's CPI release will be a major event, as the entire market is watching the inflation trend and how the Fed will respond," Jung said. LVRG Research director Nick Ruck pointed out, "While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have eased somewhat, this rebound is just correcting the overly cautious risk aversion sentiment." The price increase was partly driven by the news that Trump canceled the 50% tariff plan on Canadian steel and aluminum that was originally scheduled to take effect on Wednesday. Earlier on Tuesday, Ukraine agreed to Trump's proposed 30-day ceasefire, and the U.S. leader is now seeking dialogue with Russian President Putin to end the conflict between the two countries. Kronos Research Chief Investment Officer Vincent Liu reminded that although tariffs have not been universally implemented to disrupt market momentum, volatility and macroeconomic risks still need to be treated with caution.
