On August 20, Forbes published an article discussing U.S. Vice President JD Vance's earlier views on the dollar's status as a global reserve currency, which sparked a debate on the long-term contradictions of the dollar system. The article argues that while the dollar's status as a global reserve currency brings financing advantages, it also creates the 'Triffin Dilemma': a national currency struggles to simultaneously meet domestic economic needs and global reserve demands. It points out that the dollar's reserve status drives global capital inflows into the U.S., enhancing the dollar's value and allowing American consumers to access cheap imported goods, but simultaneously undermines the competitiveness of U.S. manufacturing and exacerbates trade deficits. The author notes that after the end of the Bretton Woods system and the suspension of gold convertibility in 1971, the dollar system continued to operate through U.S. Treasury bonds and the global dollar market, but the core contradictions have not disappeared. Stablecoins, while expanding the use of the dollar, still rely on U.S. government debt and cannot fully resolve the issue of reserve assets depending on a single country's liabilities. The article states that while gold possesses a non-sovereign attribute, it faces limitations in transportation, verification, and settlement efficiency. In contrast, Bitcoin features fixed supply, does not require national credit backing, is globally verifiable, and offers rapid digital settlement, which may allow it to emerge as a new neutral reserve asset. The author suggests that in the future, the dollar can continue to serve as a global transaction and commercial currency, while Bitcoin may gradually take on a larger role as a reserve asset, thereby alleviating the global monetary system's dependence on a single country's liabilities. However, the article also points out that Bitcoin currently faces issues such as price volatility, limited institutional adoption, and insufficient maturity of custodial systems. Gold has a financial history spanning hundreds of years, while Bitcoin has only existed for 17 years, and its potential to become a global reserve asset still requires time to validate.

On August 20, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) issued a notice seeking public input on the listing of power derivative contracts and related market regulation issues, aiming to further understand and improve the oversight of the power derivatives market. CFTC Chairman Michael S. Selig stated, "Without a robust power derivatives market, the U.S. cannot win the AI race." He noted that just as the U.S. market established trading standards for commodities that propelled the industrial economy, it will also create corresponding rules for power commodities that drive the "smart economy." This public input process is the first step in establishing clear rules for the U.S. power market. The request for comments addresses the scale, liquidity, and other characteristics of the power spot market, as well as topics such as market regulation, manipulation risks, customer protection, and power perpetual futures, and invites market participants to submit comments on other aspects of the power market. The comment period will last for 60 days following the publication of the relevant notice in the Federal Register.
