<h2 id="header-0">This Week in Web3: Top Headlines</h2><h3 id="strong-senator-cynthia-lummis-advocates-for-bitcoin-integration-into-us-financial-system-strong">Senator Cynthia Lummis Advocates for Bitcoin Integration into US Financial System</h3>Senator Cynthia Lummis (R-WY) believes that integrating Bitcoin into the US financial system can bolster the US dollar and help it remain a global leader. In a recent Fox Business interview, she shared her vision for a financially independent America, advocating for Bitcoin as a reserve asset to strengthen the dollar. Lummis is pushing a pro-Bitcoin agenda, which includes rejecting retail Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), protecting self-custody Bitcoin wallets, and restoring the dollar&#39;s dominance. She praised the Federal Reserve for deciding against pursuing a CBDC, citing concerns about government surveillance, and highlighted the importance of financial freedom through self-custody.Her views are supported by MicroStrategy chair Michael Saylor, who also favours a Bitcoin-backed dollar to uphold American values of privacy and property rights. This reflects a broader movement among crypto enthusiasts to integrate digital assets into the US financial system as a hedge against inflation and a means to enhance financial privacy. Former President Donald Trump has also shown strong support for the crypto sector, discussing making Bitcoin a reserve asset and planning to headline the 2024 Bitcoin Conference, while opposing CBDCs due to privacy concerns.Bitcoin ETFs Set New Inflow Record: Recovery Potential Amid Price DropAfter six days of positive net inflows starting July 5, U.S. spot bitcoin ETFs have hit a record with $15.81 billion in total inflows, according to SoSoValue. They added over $1 billion in assets, with Friday being particularly strong, pulling in $310 million. BlackRock&#39;s IBIT led with $120 million, followed by Fidelity’s FBTC at $115 million, and contributions from Grayscale, Bitwise, and Ark Invest. Although bitcoin&#39;s price has dropped about 17.5% from $71,500 to $58,900, the high net inflows suggest a potential for recovery. Meanwhile, the crypto community is excited about the possible launch of spot Ethereum ETFs this month, pending SEC approval.<h3 id="strong-german-government-completes-bitcoin-sell-off-strong">German Government Completes Bitcoin Sell-off</h3>The German government has sold off all its Bitcoin holdings over the past 23 days, wrapping up a process that started in late June. They transferred the last batch of Bitcoin, worth around $223.81 million, to Flow Traders and 139Po. This Bitcoin was originally seized from the operators of a piracy website. The sales, carried out by Germany&#39;s federal criminal police, led to fluctuations in Bitcoin prices, which were around $57,656 at the time. Interestingly, this sell-off happened just as US Bitcoin ETFs saw huge inflows (as described in the preceding headline), and whales buying up Bitcoin rapidly. The German government&#39;s Bitcoin balance is now at zero, and we&#39;re waiting to see how this impacts the market in the long term.<h3 id="strong-prepare-for-the-pinnacle-gathering-of-the-year-strong">Prepare for the pinnacle gathering of the year!</h3>Money20/20 USA, Business-changing connections.
