Demand for digital assets took a significant hit after US President Donald Trump hiked global import tariffs from 10% to 15%, leading to another slide in the leading cryptocurrencies 📉.
Bitcoin lost another key support level on the weekly chart, prompting more focus on the upcoming weekly close, with downside opening a potential path to a ‘fair value gap’ correction near $45,000.
However, traditional investment bank Standard Chartered stuck to its $2 trillion stablecoin market cap prediction for 2028, which would bring a much-needed liquidity wave to fuel the next bull market cycle.
Meanwhile, crypto VC firms continue making forward-looking deals, while more crypto-native firms are turning towards Ether staking to gain additional passive income on their long-term holdings.
Looking at the short term, all eyes remain on tariff developments and potential signs of geopolitical escalation, which is already causing defensive positioning towards tokenized commodities and precious metals 🛡️.

Standard Chartered Predicts $2 Trillion Stablecoin Market in 2028: New Crypto Liquidity Wave 💸

Multinational investment bank Standard Chartered is predicting a new liquidity wave set to hit the cryptocurrency market during the next two years.
Standard Chartered analysts maintained their forecast for the stablecoin market surpassing $2 trillion by late 2028, signaling bullish liquidity expectations for the cryptocurrency market.
Despite the current market downturn, the cyclical nature of the crypto industry will lead to a resurgence in stablecoin liquidity, wrote Standard Chartered analyst Geoff Kendrick 💹:
✍️ “We see these issues as cyclical rather than structural, and we continue to expect stablecoin market cap to reach $2 trillion by end-2028.”
Stablecoins are the main on-ramp between the fiat and cryptocurrency world. A growing stablecoin supply is seen as an early sign of incoming crypto market liquidity and historically preceded strong bull market runs.
The prediction would signal a 6.5-fold increase from the current $310 billion stablecoin market capitalization.
The report also foresees stablecoins generating an additional $1 trillion in fresh T-bill demand by late 2028, making a significant reduction in the forecast compared to the previous $1.6 trillion figure.

Better Closes $500 Million Stablecoin Mortgage Financing Deal With Framework Ventures 💰

Mortgage lender Better has entered into a $500 million stablecoin financing deal with crypto venture capital firm Framework Ventures, in a testament to the growing convergence between decentralized finance and the traditional mortgage sectors 🏠.
Through the deal, Better will access up to $500 million in stablecoin financing through the blockchain-based stablecoin ecosystem Sky, the firms announced on Feb. 24.
The development could bring more homebuyer mortgage activity onto DeFi rails via stablecoins, adding more utility to the emerging industry.
For homebuyers, the new framework presented by the deal could provide a new source of fresh capital outside traditional lending markets.
The new framework aims to serve more homebuyers and lower mortgage rates, said Vance Spencer, the co-founder of Framework Ventures.
🗣️ “We believe that Better’s integration into the Sky ecosystem could be a win for all parties: with this capital injection, we think Better will be able to rapidly scale origination and potentially lower mortgage rates for consumers in the long term.”
Better will retain full responsibility for underwriting and originating the loans 📝.

Ethereum Foundation to Stake 700,000 ETH From Treasury Reserves 🔒

The Ethereum Foundation has initiated its staking strategy, seeking to earn yield from its significant Ether holdings.
The Ethereum Foundation staked its first 2,016 Ether tokens earlier this week, marking the first tranche of its plans to stake 70,000 ETH, or over $131 million at the time of publishing.
The development is a net positive for Ethereum, as all the proceeds are set to flow back into the EF’s treasury and fund the research and development of the world’s largest smart contract network 🌐.
“We are excited to take this important step, which helps secure the Ethereum network and at the same time fund the EF’s core operations & activities,” announced the EF on Feb. 24.
🗣️ “Today, the EF made a 2,016 ETH deposit. Approximately 70,000 ETH will be staked with rewards directed back to the EF treasury”.
Staking has been gaining popularity among corporate crypto holders and Web3-native firms with large Ether holdings. Validators currently earn 2.82% annual percentage rate (APR) yield on their staked ETH 💹.

Bitdeer Liquidates All Bitcoin Holdings Amid Market Downturn 📉

Bitcoin mining company Bitdeer has liquidated its BTC holdings, as the mining industry feels the pressure of the crypto market downturn.
Bitdeer sold its entire stash of 943 Bitcoin ($61 million), reducing its corporate holdings to zero, the mining company announced on Feb. 21.
Selling the entire holdings is a rare occurrence among mining firms, often seen as a concerning sign for short-term price action ⚠️.
However, the company said that the decision to sell the Bitcoin was not due to “concern for the broader market,” but a capital need for upcoming investments, Bitdeer wrote on Feb. 23:
✍️ “We are currently evaluating multiple non-binding powered land acquisition opportunities, and we believe it is prudent to prepare liquidity now. Our hash rate will continue to grow, and we will continue to mine more Bitcoin for the interest of our shareholders.”
The Bitcoin mining firm reported a weekly production of 189 Bitcoin ($12 million), which formed part of the liquidated stash. The holdings were most likely sold to fund mining operations, electricity bills, equipment maintenance and staff salaries.
The mining firm has been exploring other funding venues to raise funds. Last week, Bitdeer announced plans for a $300 million senior convertible note raise with notes due in 2032 📝.

Market Overview: Trump Tariff Hike Hits Crypto Demand as Bitcoin Risks Fair Value Gap Slide to $45,000 ⚠️

Cryptocurrency investor sentiment took another damaging hit after United States President Donald Trump announced a hike in global tariffs from 10% to 15%.
Bitcoin sank to a weekly low of $62,990 after the trade tariff shocks, before recovering to find its footing just below the $68,000 mark on Feb. 25, according to CoinStats data.

In the absence of crypto-specific catalysts, the renewed global trade uncertainty and geopolitical concerns may expose Bitcoin to a deeper retracement, based on its fair value gap, wrote popular crypto trader Scient:
✍️ “$50k demand is likely to get tested. And the fair value gap around $45k remains a magnet below. I expect that region to be filled before a meaningful bottom forms. The market rarely leaves inefficiencies behind.”
Fair value gaps are technical trading patterns indicating a market inefficiency that forms when rapid, news-driven price movements leave a void in price action, often visible as a three-candle sequence where the middle candle doesn’t overlap with the first and third.

However, some analysts are still seeing a silver lining to the market structure, depending on the upcoming weekly close.
For a chance of a wider recovery, Bitcoin needs to close above the crucial 200-week exponential moving average (EMA), wrote crypto analyst Rekt Capital:
✍️ “And if Bitcoin indeed turns the 200-week EMA into new resistance, that would confirm the breakdown from the EMA to enter additional downside continuation, in line with historical tendencies across cycles.”
Bitcoin slid below the 200-week EMA earlier this week after the tariff shocks delivered another blow to investor sentiment ⚡. The weekly close could determine Bitcoin’s trend in the coming weeks, but more tariff threats or geopolitical risks remain the most pressing headwind for BTC 🌍.

Bitwise CEO: In the next 6 to 12 months, the focus of the crypto field will be on the credit and lending market

PANews reported on September 18 that Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley tweeted that over the next six to 12 months, the focus of the cryptocurrency sector will shift to credit and lending. This sector is expected to experience explosive growth in the next few years. He pointed out that the current cryptocurrency market capitalization is approaching $4 trillion and continues to grow. When people can borrow against cryptocurrency, they will choose to borrow rather than sell. Furthermore, the market capitalization of publicly traded stocks in the United States exceeds $60 trillion. With the tokenization of assets, individuals holding $7,000 worth of stocks will be able to borrow against them on-chain for the first time. Horsley believes that cryptocurrency is redefining capital markets, and this is just the beginning.

Summarize Any Stock’s Earnings Call in Seconds Using FMP API

Summarize Any Stock’s Earnings Call in Seconds Using FMP API

Turn lengthy earnings call transcripts into one-page insights using the Financial Modeling Prep APIPhoto by Bich Tran Earnings calls are packed with insights. They tell you how a company performed, what management expects in the future, and what analysts are worried about. The challenge is that these transcripts often stretch across dozens of pages, making it tough to separate the key takeaways from the noise. With the right tools, you don’t need to spend hours reading every line. By combining the Financial Modeling Prep (FMP) API with Groq’s lightning-fast LLMs, you can transform any earnings call into a concise summary in seconds. The FMP API provides reliable access to complete transcripts, while Groq handles the heavy lifting of distilling them into clear, actionable highlights. In this article, we’ll build a Python workflow that brings these two together. You’ll see how to fetch transcripts for any stock, prepare the text, and instantly generate a one-page summary. Whether you’re tracking Apple, NVIDIA, or your favorite growth stock, the process works the same — fast, accurate, and ready whenever you are. Fetching Earnings Transcripts with FMP API The first step is to pull the raw transcript data. FMP makes this simple with dedicated endpoints for earnings calls. If you want the latest transcripts across the market, you can use the stable endpoint /stable/earning-call-transcript-latest. For a specific stock, the v3 endpoint lets you request transcripts by symbol, quarter, and year using the pattern: https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={q}&year={y}&apikey=YOUR_API_KEY here’s how you can fetch NVIDIA’s transcript for a given quarter: import requestsAPI_KEY = "your_api_key"symbol = "NVDA"quarter = 2year = 2024url = f"https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={quarter}&year={year}&apikey={API_KEY}"response = requests.get(url)data = response.json()# Inspect the keysprint(data.keys())# Access transcript contentif "content" in data[0]: transcript_text = data[0]["content"] print(transcript_text[:500]) # preview first 500 characters The response typically includes details like the company symbol, quarter, year, and the full transcript text. If you aren’t sure which quarter to query, the “latest transcripts” endpoint is the quickest way to always stay up to date. Cleaning and Preparing Transcript Data Raw transcripts from the API often include long paragraphs, speaker tags, and formatting artifacts. Before sending them to an LLM, it helps to organize the text into a cleaner structure. Most transcripts follow a pattern: prepared remarks from executives first, followed by a Q&A session with analysts. Separating these sections gives better control when prompting the model. In Python, you can parse the transcript and strip out unnecessary characters. A simple way is to split by markers such as “Operator” or “Question-and-Answer.” Once separated, you can create two blocks — Prepared Remarks and Q&A — that will later be summarized independently. This ensures the model handles each section within context and avoids missing important details. Here’s a small example of how you might start preparing the data: import re# Example: using the transcript_text we fetched earliertext = transcript_text# Remove extra spaces and line breaksclean_text = re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', text).strip()# Split sections (this is a heuristic; real-world transcripts vary slightly)if "Question-and-Answer" in clean_text: prepared, qna = clean_text.split("Question-and-Answer", 1)else: prepared, qna = clean_text, ""print("Prepared Remarks Preview:\n", prepared[:500])print("\nQ&A Preview:\n", qna[:500]) With the transcript cleaned and divided, you’re ready to feed it into Groq’s LLM. Chunking may be necessary if the text is very long. A good approach is to break it into segments of a few thousand tokens, summarize each part, and then merge the summaries in a final pass. Summarizing with Groq LLM Now that the transcript is clean and split into Prepared Remarks and Q&A, we’ll use Groq to generate a crisp one-pager. The idea is simple: summarize each section separately (for focus and accuracy), then synthesize a final brief. Prompt design (concise and factual) Use a short, repeatable template that pushes for neutral, investor-ready language: You are an equity research analyst. Summarize the following earnings call sectionfor {symbol} ({quarter} {year}). Be factual and concise.Return:1) TL;DR (3–5 bullets)2) Results vs. guidance (what improved/worsened)3) Forward outlook (specific statements)4) Risks / watch-outs5) Q&A takeaways (if present)Text:<<<{section_text}>>> Python: calling Groq and getting a clean summary Groq provides an OpenAI-compatible API. Set your GROQ_API_KEY and pick a fast, high-quality model (e.g., a Llama-3.1 70B variant). We’ll write a helper to summarize any text block, then run it for both sections and merge. import osimport textwrapimport requestsGROQ_API_KEY = os.environ.get("GROQ_API_KEY") or "your_groq_api_key"GROQ_BASE_URL = "https://api.groq.com/openai/v1" # OpenAI-compatibleMODEL = "llama-3.1-70b" # choose your preferred Groq modeldef call_groq(prompt, temperature=0.2, max_tokens=1200): url = f"{GROQ_BASE_URL}/chat/completions" headers = { "Authorization": f"Bearer {GROQ_API_KEY}", "Content-Type": "application/json", } payload = { "model": MODEL, "messages": [ {"role": "system", "content": "You are a precise, neutral equity research analyst."}, {"role": "user", "content": prompt}, ], "temperature": temperature, "max_tokens": max_tokens, } r = requests.post(url, headers=headers, json=payload, timeout=60) r.raise_for_status() return r.json()["choices"][0]["message"]["content"].strip()def build_prompt(section_text, symbol, quarter, year): template = """ You are an equity research analyst. Summarize the following earnings call section for {symbol} ({quarter} {year}). Be factual and concise. Return: 1) TL;DR (3–5 bullets) 2) Results vs. guidance (what improved/worsened) 3) Forward outlook (specific statements) 4) Risks / watch-outs 5) Q&A takeaways (if present) Text: <<< {section_text} >>> """ return textwrap.dedent(template).format( symbol=symbol, quarter=quarter, year=year, section_text=section_text )def summarize_section(section_text, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024"): if not section_text or section_text.strip() == "": return "(No content found for this section.)" prompt = build_prompt(section_text, symbol, quarter, year) return call_groq(prompt)# Example usage with the cleaned splits from Section 3prepared_summary = summarize_section(prepared, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024")qna_summary = summarize_section(qna, symbol="NVDA", quarter="Q2", year="2024")final_one_pager = f"""# {symbol} Earnings One-Pager — {quarter} {year}## Prepared Remarks — Key Points{prepared_summary}## Q&A Highlights{qna_summary}""".strip()print(final_one_pager[:1200]) # preview Tips that keep quality high: Keep temperature low (≈0.2) for factual tone. If a section is extremely long, chunk at ~5–8k tokens, summarize each chunk with the same prompt, then ask the model to merge chunk summaries into one section summary before producing the final one-pager. If you also fetched headline numbers (EPS/revenue, guidance) earlier, prepend them to the prompt as brief context to help the model anchor on the right outcomes. Building the End-to-End Pipeline At this point, we have all the building blocks: the FMP API to fetch transcripts, a cleaning step to structure the data, and Groq LLM to generate concise summaries. The final step is to connect everything into a single workflow that can take any ticker and return a one-page earnings call summary. The flow looks like this: Input a stock ticker (for example, NVDA). Use FMP to fetch the latest transcript. Clean and split the text into Prepared Remarks and Q&A. Send each section to Groq for summarization. Merge the outputs into a neatly formatted earnings one-pager. Here’s how it comes together in Python: def summarize_earnings_call(symbol, quarter, year, api_key, groq_key): # Step 1: Fetch transcript from FMP url = f"https://financialmodelingprep.com/api/v3/earning_call_transcript/{symbol}?quarter={quarter}&year={year}&apikey={api_key}" resp = requests.get(url) resp.raise_for_status() data = resp.json() if not data or "content" not in data[0]: return f"No transcript found for {symbol} {quarter} {year}" text = data[0]["content"] # Step 2: Clean and split clean_text = re.sub(r'\s+', ' ', text).strip() if "Question-and-Answer" in clean_text: prepared, qna = clean_text.split("Question-and-Answer", 1) else: prepared, qna = clean_text, "" # Step 3: Summarize with Groq prepared_summary = summarize_section(prepared, symbol, quarter, year) qna_summary = summarize_section(qna, symbol, quarter, year) # Step 4: Merge into final one-pager return f"""# {symbol} Earnings One-Pager — {quarter} {year}## Prepared Remarks{prepared_summary}## Q&A Highlights{qna_summary}""".strip()# Example runprint(summarize_earnings_call("NVDA", 2, 2024, API_KEY, GROQ_API_KEY)) With this setup, generating a summary becomes as simple as calling one function with a ticker and date. You can run it inside a notebook, integrate it into a research workflow, or even schedule it to trigger after each new earnings release. Free Stock Market API and Financial Statements API... Conclusion Earnings calls no longer need to feel overwhelming. With the Financial Modeling Prep API, you can instantly access any company’s transcript, and with Groq LLM, you can turn that raw text into a sharp, actionable summary in seconds. This pipeline saves hours of reading and ensures you never miss the key results, guidance, or risks hidden in lengthy remarks. Whether you track tech giants like NVIDIA or smaller growth stocks, the process is the same — fast, reliable, and powered by the flexibility of FMP’s data.
