This round was participated in by Brevan Howard Digital, CoinFund, DWF Labs, FalconX, Hypersphere, Lemniscap, Nascent, Republic Digital, Selini, Sigil Fund, Susquehanna Crypto, Tioga Capital, and Virtuals Protocol.

- 05:14Trump supports making Epstein-related files public for votingJinse Finance reported that Trump stated on Sunday local time that House Republicans should vote to require the Department of Justice to release documents related to Epstein, effectively reversing his position from previous months. On his way back to the White House from Florida, Trump posted on social media: "House Republicans should vote to release the Epstein files because we have nothing to hide, and now is the time to move forward. The House Oversight Committee can obtain all the materials they are legally entitled to, I don't care!" Last week, congressional committees released about 20,000 pages of emails and other documents, shifting the focus from the government shutdown dispute to the issue of document disclosure, and forcing the White House to respond. The House will vote this week on whether to require the Department of Justice to release these investigative documents. Previously, Trump and the White House had stated that there was no need to release more documents. Last Friday, Trump told reporters: "I don't care if they are released," and said the matter was a distraction from his second term. (Golden Ten Data)
