"There's been proposed through the G20 is nowhere near strong enough for what is actually needed to avert an impending crisis. I also think that one of the big takeaways and certainly from our Bloomberg perspective is the idea of the G20 techs warning about cascading crises having posed challenges to long term economic growth. And again, here, you There know, is there a convergence, obviously, between the politics and simply the economics that seems to be deteriorating for the Yes, it's true. And I note in particular, there's a strong section on the macroeconomic implications, particularly of climate change. And I think this is really significant because over two or three years, there has been a fear that central banks so are focused on the immediate challenge of tackling inflation, that they won't look at what will be very approaching rapidly effects on the on the macro economy from climate change. So I think the fact that that has such a strong role within the text is very important. And in that sense, I think this was this was progress compared with where we have been in the past. Okay, Brian Butler, Director of the Global Economy and Finance programme at Chatham House, thank you so much for joining us on the programme this morning. Yeah, thank you. Really fascinating. Understanding and analysis of the G20 weekend. Meanwhile, of course, on the markets this morning, a lot of action. The yen has surged against all G10 currencies. Japanese bonds have slumped. We've had some comments on the Bank of Japan governor hinting at the possibility of ending negative rates. This This would be so significant for markets. Our markets reporter Valerie Teitel is here with us. What exactly did Kazwa Ueda say? Some very significant words from him. Shall I say, he said that the Bank of Japan could become confident by year -end that inflation is sustainable. And if they are confident, ending negative interest rates is among the options available. This is really the first time we have heard flat out from a BOJ governor that a tightening cycle could be in the cards. Remember, many times they've widened yield curve control in the last year. year. They They have been on the forefront to remind us that this is not tightening. This is just helping market liquidity, that we should not jump to conclusions about what this means. And here they are coming out and saying that negative interest rates, a possible end to negative interest rates is on the cards by the end of this year. The markets sure are reacting to what we heard from them. We're seeing dollar yen strengthen over a percent, now a percent and a quarter, which is a big move for the dollar yen currency. It's really putting an end to dollar this strength narrative that we've been very much fixated for over the last week. We're seeing the dollar down half of one percent. And then again, it is causing quite a swamp in fixed income, not just in JGB yields. Those are also having a weak session. We have the 10 -year yield crossing 70 basis points for the first time since 2014 and note they have now moved over five basis points and it has not caused any bond buying trigger from the Bank of Japan. Are they okay? We're seeing these yields rise. That's what they're giving the market the nudge for today. We are seeing Treasury yields also rise off the back of this, led every time. our market supporter. Thank you so much for bringing us up to date on that. Coming up in the next part of the program, we're going to bring you our conversation with Bloomberg opinion columnist Mohamed El -Erian, talking about the Federal Reserve and how we should interpret the latest data ahead of this week's CPI print. Stay with us for that. This is Bloomberg. Thanks for watching. Thank you. Bloomberg radio on demand and in your podcast feed on the latest edition of the Bloomberg Daybreak us edition podcast Bloomberg's Michael McKee spoke with the president of the New York Fed, John Williams. Here's how I see things now. You know, obviously always focused on our dual mandate, maximum employment and price stability. Inflation is far too high, but that said, inflation is moving in the right direction. We're seeing the imbalances says in the labor market, which are really quite pronounced last year. They've been closing job openings have been coming down, the quit rates coming down, the hiring rate in the markets coming down. So We're seeing movement in the right direction of bringing supply and demand back into balance, seeing inflation come back towards our 2 % long run goal. And we've done a lot.
The Breakdown
A highlight from Worldcoin Iris Scanning Shut Down in Kenya
"Welcome back to The Breakdown, with me, NLW. It's a daily podcast on macro, Bitcoin, and the big picture power shifts remaking our world. What's going on, guys? It is Saturday, August 5th, and that means it's time for the weekly recap. Before we get into that, however, if you are enjoying The Breakdown, please go subscribe to it, give it a rating, give it a review, or if you want to dive deeper into the conversation, come join us on the Breakers Discord. You can find the link in the show notes or go to bit .ly slash breakdown pod. All right, friends. Happy weekend. Today, we are doing a full on grab bag. We are going to touch on a bunch of different topics, some updates from stories from earlier in the week or last week, some things we haven't had a chance to cover yet. And where we start is with the latest in Worldcoin, and to kick it off, a quote from Maya Zahavi. On Wednesday, she tweeted the most predictable blowback against crypto colonialism. No government would allow its citizens to risk their biometric data to a company that has shown no remorse in blitz collecting data. So far, France, Germany and Kenya are investigating Worldcoin. Now Maya was far from the only person talking about this. The same day, Mohamed Hersey, the former chairman at the Kenyan Tourism Federation, wrote a foreign firm can just walk in and set up office in Kenya and start harvesting iris scans. The iris is the only unique identity a human has, so with a small token, Kenyans are falling over each other to allow their iris to be scanned. And we think it's just a cool, harmless thing. It's the duty of the state to interrogate such firms, so the desperate Kenyans are not duped into something they hardly understand. Cabinet Secretary, you need to step in. Personal data should be a security concern, and the state must be convinced that it is a good clean thing. These chaps can't just walk in and start scanning the iris of gullible Kenyans. So indeed, Worldcoin operations have been suspended in Kenya. The nation's Ministry of the Interior said in a Facebook post on Wednesday that and how the harvesters intend to use the data. The Ministry added that it was, quote, Now, prior to the shutdown, Kenya's Minister for the Digital Economy, Eliudawalo, defended Worldcoin's practices in a television appearance. He stated that Kenya's data protection regulations may need an overhaul, but that Worldcoin were acting within the law. Of course, since the very early days of Worldcoin before the formal launch, critics had raised concerns that the project would be taking advantage of citizens in Africa and across the global south. Kenya has been one of the largest markets for signups. In December, Worldcoin boasted that over a quarter of a million people in the capital of Nairobi had handed over their eyeball scans to one of the 45 orbs in the city. At launch, Worldcoin claimed to have two million users, primarily made up of residents of the global south. Alfred Matua, the Kenyan Secretary for Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, said, Now, outside of Kenya, several European regulators have also opened investigations into Worldcoin, primarily on data privacy grounds. Last week, the UK's Information Commission's Office, which regulates personal data, said that it would be making further inquiries into the project, but had not yet opened an investigation. It noted that organizations, quote, Now, although investigations into Worldcoin are more widespread, Kenya is the first nation to take the step of shutting down operations within their borders. Kenya's Capital Markets Authority also issued a cautionary statement on Wednesday, stating that neither the project nor the tokens were regulated. The statement warned of, quote, That said, the CMA said it was willing to work with Worldcoin through its regulatory sandbox. Now, Worldcoin said it would pause Kenyan operations in a statement, but appeared to be more concerned with crowd control after one location was shut down by police earlier this week. They said, Now, separately on Wednesday, Reuters reported that Worldcoin intends to allow governments and corporations to use its iris scanning based ID technology. This, of course, raised further concerns regarding the organization's data privacy policies and longer term intentions. Ricardo Masierra, the general manager for Europe at Tools for Humanity, explained, Boy, I got to tell you guys, it is very hard to keep up the normal level of breakdown. objectivity when it comes to this, not because of any big belief that anyone who's at Worldcoin believes anything other than exactly what they're saying, but more because the combination of biometrics and around and find out thinking just seems really, really dangerous. Moving on to our next topic, Coinbase announced a strong earnings beat for the second quarter. The company exceeded analyst revenue estimates by 12 .7%. Now, of course, revenue contracted for the quarter, falling by about 18 % compared to Q1, but estimates had called for a 22 % collapse in revenue. Losses were also significantly less bad than expected, coming in at 42 cents per share compared to analyst estimates of 76 cents per share. This is the sixth straight loss -making quarter for Coinbase, however, the company appears to have stemmed the worst of the bleeding. During the second quarter of last year, for example, Coinbase chalked up a loss of almost $5 per share. Now, the big story was the shift in business model that has taken place during this bear market. Trading volumes on Coinbase continued to collapse. Volume fell by more than a third to hit $92 billion for the quarter after holding steady in Q1. Interest income also fell by 16 .5 % to reach $201 million. This line item is primarily driven by earnings from an interest sharing agreement on USDC stablecoin holdings, which brought in $151 million for the quarter. However, revenue from blockchain staking services increased by 18 % for the quarter and now stands at $87 .6 million. Quarterly staking -related revenue has increased by almost 30 % compared to last year. In fact, for the first time, Coinbase brought in more revenue from subscriptions and services than it did from trading fees. That means that in aggregate, staking services, custodial fees, earned interest, and subscriptions made a larger contribution to the bottom line than the exchange. There's also the potential for a major tailwind to hit the relatively small custodian arm of the business should BlackRock be successful in its ETF application. Remember, Coinbase will be custody -ing all of the Bitcoin held on behalf of the BlackRock ETF. CEO Brian Armstrong heralded the quarter as a success, but foreshadowed that there was still more work to do, stating that, Q2 was a strong quarter for Coinbase as we executed well and showed resilience in a challenging environment. We've cut costs, are operating efficiently, and remain well positioned to build the future of the crypto economy and help drive regulatory clarity. Coinbase shares were up over 10 % in aftermarket trading following the release of earnings. Continuing on to a super weird one. Zach Guzman, the founder of Coinage Media, writes, I don't think I've seen this before. The New York Times just submitted a letter to the court in Sam Bankman -Fried's case about why he was fined to share Carolyn Ellison's diary entries with them and why the judge shouldn't revoke bail and detain him now. So what's going on is that the New York Times has submitted a filing in SPF's criminal case arguing that the court should defend First Amendment rights related to free speech. You will undoubtedly remember that Sam recently came under fire after leaking parts of Carolyn Ellison's journal to the newspaper as part of a story. Ellison was of course the Alameda Research CEO at the time of the FTX collapse and is a material witness in the case. Following that, prosecutors had asked for Sam's bail to be revoked and for the court to issue a gag order, thus preventing him from making public statements or communicating with journalists about the case. Their concern was that Sam had been attempting to intimidate Caroline by releasing her private writings to journalists and would be likely to make further attempts to manipulate public opinion via the media as his trial date approached. Despite those specific concerns, the judge issued a broad gag order rather than one that restricted Sam's communication only in relation to interfering with the trial. This is what provoked the response from the New York Times. After the gag order was issued last week, they wrote a letter to the judge addressing freedom of the press issues. They argued that the public had a right to know details in the case and should not be restricted by the court without due consideration of free speech issues. Their letter claimed that the gag order, quote, However, in a filing late on Thursday, the DOJ reiterated their position that Sam had gone way beyond making, quote, They stated that, quote, Prosecutors pointed out that SBF had created a, quote, What is clear, regardless of whether the defendant was the first source for stories regarding Ellison, is that the defendant, rather than deny his guilt as he correctly now says it is his right to do, shared materials with the press obviously designed to intimidate, harass, and embarrass someone he knows is slated to testify against him and provoke an emotional response and color a potential juror's view of that witness. The DOJ also noted a bizarre fixation with the comments of current FTX CEO John J. Ray III, who took over the firm after bankruptcy. They wrote, In all the years of bail revocation hearings I did, never did anyone or any organization claim a First Amendment right to facilitate witness intimidation. And for good reason. That's not how the First Amendment works. Autism Capital summed up, Not because they feel bad, but because they don't want to scare off their pipeline of juicy leads from other suckers. And now they have to deal with the backlash of the optics of defending SBF. I don't know, man. It seems pretty hard to me to be in the New York Times seat here and actually trying to defend this, especially as the prosecution revealed that there had been something like over a hundred calls between Sam and New York Times reporters. As the prosecution said, that's not just Sam making comment to the effect that he's not guilty. That's an intentional strategy carried out by press, with the press's complicity because they get a juicy story. Now certainly the New York Times is well within its rights to take advantage of a defendant who wants to talk that much. But the idea that that somehow justifies leaking someone's personal journal and trying to pass it off as an essential and material to the case is just ridiculous. Speaking of ridiculous, lastly today, Ilya Dutch Liechtenstein and his wife, Heather Rosilcon Morgan, entered guilty pleas on Thursday in relation to the 2016 Bitfinex hack. Liechtenstein pled guilty to one charge of conspiracy to commit money laundering and, in admitting to the prosecution's facts in the case, identified himself as the Bitfinex hacker for the first time. Liechtenstein had only been charged in relation to the money laundering, not the hack itself, leading some to speculate whether there was an additional unknown person that carried out the hack. Prosecutors said, The stash of nearly 120 ,000 Bitcoin was worth around $70 million at the time of the hack, but swelled to a value of over $4 .5 billion over the years since. This made the Bitfinex seizure the largest ever recovery of stolen cryptocurrency when law enforcement arrested the pair in February of this year. 94 ,000 Bitcoin are known to be recovered from the heist. Liechtenstein faces a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison, but his assistance in recovering additional funds since his arrest could mitigate that penalty substantially. Now Liechtenstein's wife, Heather, aka Razzle -Kahn, an amateur rapper, also pled guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit money laundering and defrauding the U .S. government. The self -proclaimed Crocodile of Wall Street faces a maximum sentence of five years in prison for her role in the crime. Cleanup year continues, and good lord, we can't get through it fast enough. That is going to do it for today's episode. Thank you for hanging out and listening. Until next time, be safe and take care of each other.

"Of the protocols that we're excited about uniswap and Ethereum and all of these different chains that we're very excited about. Well, if AI is start using this block space and start consuming it and creating economic activity, if the future of the economy of basically, I think we've had this backwards. Sorry, I'm just I'm a little rambly now because I'm connecting so many thoughts here. But I think we've had this backwards. You know how crypto has always been about like, well, what happens when a major nation kind of adopts our coin? And it becomes like, say, the U.S. sort of brings Bitcoin and eth inside of its treasury. Maybe that whole concept is entirely backwards. In order to become a reserve money for the world, you need to be a reserved money for the largest economies of the world. Nation states have been the largest economies in the world so far. The United States is chief among that. But what if crypto? Something like ether Bitcoin becomes the reserve currency for the largest future economy of the world, which is this economy of AI agents operating across geographic boundaries. How bullish is that for all of our crypto assets. And yet I'm also scared of this new world of agents independently acting because what have we created in crypto, guys. We've created unstoppable code, unstoppable chains, right? And so what if they turn evil? And what if they're bad? I mean, what if they're better at crypto than we are? God, how do we start? So I guess what I'm saying is this whole use case Muhammad of payment and execution rails, right? Make sure we understand guys as you're hearing Muhammad described this payment doesn't just mean like, oh, you know, I'd rather rather than wiring my ACH from this bank to this bank. And I could send Ethan said it means being able to set up decentralized autonomous organizations, being able to set up capital structures, be able to execute trades, be able to hire and fire people, being able to operate with all of these other independent agents.

"Am, whatever you want, and then AI agent become fully autonomous, Z can receive payment for the word video, giving a prompt. You give them or they can actually recruit and hire other AI Asian and pay them. That way what I call payment rail for AI agent. The other portrait is execution real. What if you want to actually an AI agent want to create a website? Then it have to be GoDaddy. It has to recruit another AI agent to design the website. So and maybe even the need to get resources for that. So if you go to IWS database me plug them. So why not plug it into a decentralized computer network? Where you can actually have a server that hosts your website. Or even better, what if you need to scale itself and do more compute? It can actually recruit this interest can be to scale itself. So we are getting into a really dangerous situation here, but this is all possible. And it's not possible tomorrow. It's possible today. It's just we need engineers to build that. So crepe two can actually be the payment rail and execution rails for AI agents. So this is a thesis here. The key insight here is in theory, AI agent can control a bank account. But there are a couple there are two problems that are unique to bank accounts compared to crypto. One is, well, if you open a bank account, you need to KYC. Well, how does an AI agent KYC that's impossible? And two, the interfaces are not permissionless in the bank account. So you can get the platform. If you have a bot that controls the bank account, but crypto sells both problems. So what's a better wallet for AI agent? Is it a bank account or is it a crypto wallet that the answer is clear?

So it gives you a few items. And then it takes one of those items and the elaborate on it and gets the new list. And so build up site, do get sponsors. Blah blah blah. And at another step, this AI agent will actually go and give this task. If you ask, if you ask, if you give you a suggestion to build a website, check GBT can actually author the HTML code that Kyrie's website go to GoDaddy bokeh at the main and launch the upside. So an AI agent can be very fully autonomous. It can just take a directive and execute all the jobs. We worry, so the directors could be as general as the way that this works with auto GPT. I think I understand this from a high level, is that you have, you almost have two chat GPs. And one tells the other one what to do. And so it's like if you are using chat GPT, except you replace yourself with chat GPT and you give the originator you give one chat GPT is like, hey, do a thing. Book me a flight to a country. And then also get me a Uber and also a hotel and plan a plan a vacation. And then that will be the direction of one chat GPT, and that one second that first job chat GBT will tell the second chat GBT to do all the things. And so it'll recursively until it gets to the goal. This is my understanding Muhammad, is that right? Yes. The response is the actual response. Yeah, okay, so with the goal can be this general, it can be like, it's not just I was being way too specific and specialized.

And the reason why I remember that was because fudan and Muhammad and I had this way all the time on decentralized compute and render protocol is the one that provides decentralized GPU for AI. So that's the only one that really remember. And there's another one called Alethia, which is which provides AI avatars. But most of the coins I don't remember them, to be honest. And it sounds like that that wasn't even the point. You went into that trade knowing that they were dubiously associated with AI, correct? That's right. Yeah.

"Liverpool's resurgence has continued with a 7 zero humiliation of Manchester United. Cody gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah, each scored twice for the reds, who tallied 6 times in the second half. Roberto Firmino capped the scoring as Liverpool ran its unbeaten streak to 5 games since the hideous three zero loss to wolves. The reds have gone from tenth to 5th place during the streak and are just three points behind fourth place Tottenham with the game in hand. It was United's worst loss in more than 90 years.

"You're comparing Nelson agholor speed and disability to get the behind the defense and stretch the field to damiere Byrd, right? Or wrong. Last year, your kind of comparing born to like a Mohamed Sanu type of player and these guys are just better than those guys. And that's a good thing. That means that they've made improvements there. How big of an improvement it really is once you actually go up against a live defense that I think will be a question that will remain unanswered, right? We'll have to see when the game started and once we get into the season but let's turn the page to the quarterbacks cuz that that I I still think to me, I think we know at this point that those pass-catchers we just mentioned are going to be good players for the Patriots, the quarterbacks are sort of wild card, right? Like this often is going to be as good as the quarterback. Play is for this offense, this year now Bill Belichick has continued to say, cams our quarterback, he said it again, yesterday definitively cameras are starting quarterback. He was seemed a little salty about it, that we have been involved in a couple of other reporters kept on asking him follow up, questions to it and he gave me he did make the Clean Slate, yep. Right earlier in the week. But I, you know, I think what he was saying is, I'm sorry to cut you off. I just want to get this in because there was a lot of back and forth about this Cam Newton is our starting quarterback and everybody enters camp with a clean slate can both be true at the same time Cam Newton we said yesterday Cam Newton as we sit on July, 31st is the Patriots starting quarterback but like that you know that doesn't mean he will be the starting quarterback week one. Everybody is still competing. So I wasn't that surprised by either statement. I, you know, I kind of get what he's saying. Cam's the starting quarterback right now, he's he's not starting quarterback for week wine. He's a starting quarterback right now and that seems true based on the Reps, that's true. I'd say, based on the performance, that's true. But Bill saying Kim's, our starting quarterback in a guarantee that cams going to be the starter in October, right? So I think that people just kind of need to do statements don't necessarily contradict each other and what we're seeing that at practice kind of contradict Belichick is saying a little bit, right, because I'm not going to spell checks, lying to us. You made the point right? That right now, he's saying that he cam is the starting quarterback which is 100% true. But I think what we are seeing at at practice is that Matt Jones is working with some of the let's just call them key figures on the office side of the football, Chris Carter's right, starters a lot and if Cam is your your starter and he's the one that's going to be starting, all your games this year, and there's no competition whatsoever. Then having Max, through to the other starters, having mac work with the starting offense of line and having him. Do these things that doesn't signal that, right? Like, when Tom Brady was here and in training camp in, not in 2019 or training 2018, or we weren't covering the team at the time, but back, when Jimmy Garoppolo was here Tom, Brady was taking ninety-nine percent of the first-team Reps, right? Like nobody else. This was throwing to Rob Gronkowski and Julian Edelman and Chris Hogan and whoever it was right. Like those guys were working almost exclusively with Brady. So watching practice, you see Mac also working with some of those starting players and also throwing to some of the key guys and you say okay well they're clearly getting him ready to do something or they just want to put down with.

Somalias political problem
"The logic of defined political terms that they provide the body politic with the sort of inoculation against what usually results when one person holds power to loan going back to the voters every so often to ask whether or not they won't. The person in charge to crack on is a sensible precautionary measure. See also the term limit. Which in some jurisdictions imposes a ceiling on the talk any single citizen may occupy the big desk there is however and as somalia. Is this week discovering an inbuilt floor with the setup at the moment the term elapses either the incumbent needs to have a renewed mandate in their pocket or a successor has to be ready to take the oath of office. The time of somali president mohamed abdullah muhammad better known as fa- modu was up on monday however because no elections have been held. No president has been chosen. Several opposition factions and two of somalia's five states have declared that they will no longer recognized for marjo as president before we look at what happens next spoiler alert very possibly nothing. Good a brisk. Recap of the backstory is probably in order the new president from i. I'm i'm very happy today. Because the new president's da for mall. Joe was elected in two thousand and seventeen. The idea had been that this was going to be a proper one person. One vote direct election but it was decided probably correctly that the polling stations and qs. Office somalia's various incorrigible militant groups rather too many targets. Instead from our joe was elected by somalia's parliament which is also not directly elected but instead chosen via a framework which has power among somalia's clans and states. This is a necessarily complex apparatus. Many of the clans dislike each other and a few of the states Iffy on whether they even think they're part of somalia says much about what somalia's mp's were up against when they chose the president that this vote was held not in the parliament building in mogadishu but in a heavily guarded and fortified hangar at aden a international airport and only after it had been closed to air traffic and mogadishu's roads closed to all traffic. It had been hoped for a while that by the end of joe's term somalia would by now being a position to conduct a more orthodox one person one vote direct election. What would have been somalia's first such since nineteen sixty nine however this was eventually reckoned once again an unacceptable security risk specifically that to hold such a vote would have been asking somalis to bet too large a steak on the goodwill of the islamic terror group al shabaab covid nineteen ni- certainly being vastly under recorded in somalia provided further discouragement. So this election was to have been another indirect one though with a broader pool of delegates but for modules opponents believed or purported to believe that the president had been stacking the regional and national electoral board's with his political allies. Which is why we are where we are or perhaps more accurately a delayed election israeli a good thing but it doesn't have to be the end of the world since the beginning of the covid nineteen pandemic at least forty national votes of various sort have been delayed and around thirty five regional or local elections in places where the democratic architecture is solid. This will bailey count. As a wobble especially at subnational national levels it will not cause the citizens of new south wales to question the legitimacy of the democracy if they have to put up with their local councillors another year. Ditto those of london as regards the mayor but when the stakes are as high as national government and the foundations much less stable. Such a jolt can have more dangerous consequences. a delayed. Parliamentary election has already triggered a war in ethiopia in an ominous. And surely not coincidental gesture. Shortly after somalia's politicians failed to reach agreement at the latest talks in. Do some marib an shebab. Roadside bomb struck a military convoy near the town killing thirteen people. And then there's at the security council condemned terrorist attacks by al-shabaab they reaffirmed their support for national sovereignty territorial integrity and political independence of somalia from jo now plans to meet with state leaders next week in an attempt to locate a compromise. It has to be hoped that they find one.
