Golden Finance reports that according to a new letter from the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC), banks can pay network fees and hold the crypto assets necessary to pay these gas fees. The OCC, which is responsible for regulating banks, stated in its letter of interpretation No. 1186 released on Tuesday that banks may need to pay network fees as part of doing business and hold Crypto Assets on their balance sheets to pay for these fees. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) pointed out that the Ethereum network requires transactions to be priced in ETH, using Ethereum as an example. The OCC stated: "Such users either need to maintain a separate Ethereum account, conduct spot trading on a crypto assets exchange to obtain Ethereum before the transaction, collaborate with third-party network fees providers, or obtain Ethereum through other means. This process may increase costs and significant risks, including operational complexity, asset price volatility, and trading."

According to a report by Golden Finance, a Reuters/Ipsos poll shows that Trump's support rate has fallen to 38%, the lowest level since his return to the White House, due to Americans' dissatisfaction with his handling of the cost of living and the investigation into Epstein.

The nine-point drop since January brings his overall support rate close to the low point of his first term and near the lowest level achieved by his Democratic predecessor, Biden.

ChainCatcher news, according to the official blog of the Ethereum Foundation, the Ethereum Foundation account abstraction team has officially proposed the "Ethereum Interop Layer" plan, aimed at making all layer two networks feel like a single unified Ethereum chain.

BlockBeats news, on November 18, Sentora (formerly IntoTheBlock) stated that Bitcoin holders typically accumulate during Bear Markets and distribute during bull runs, forming a "cup" cycle pattern. This round of decline has been slower, and long-term holders have not actively engaged in Buy the Dips, indicating a shift in cyclical behavior. The increase in institutional funds, structured products, and regulated investment vehicles is affecting the timing and manner of market demand emergence. Recent market caution has suppressed Spot buying pressure, and there has even been noticeable selling pressure in the past two weeks. In the long run, a Bitcoin Bear Market may still occur, but its characteristics may rely more on valuation, investment directives, and risk frameworks, rather than panic and euphoria. The participation of professional capital may create a more solid bottom for the market, but downside risks still exist. Future price movement will be less influenced by panic and euphoria, and more dependent on how professional capital decides to allocate the position.
