Stablecoins

Stablecoins are digital assets pegged to a stable reserve, such as the US Dollar or Gold, to minimize price volatility. Serving as the primary medium of exchange in Web3, tokens like USDT, USDC, and PYUSD facilitate global payments and DeFi liquidity. In 2026, the focus has shifted toward yield-bearing stablecoins and compliant stablecoin frameworks under global regulations like MiCA. This tag covers the intersection of traditional finance (TradFi) and crypto through stable on-chain liquidity solutions.

China, the country with the world’s strictest cryptocurrency regulations, signals easing pressure! Here are the details

The post China, the country with the world’s strictest cryptocurrency regulations, signals easing pressure! Here are the details appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. China, one of the countries with the strictest cryptocurrency regulations in the world, is preparing for a surprising policy change. China’s Yuan-Backed Stablecoin Move: Policy Change Imminent According to a Reuters report citing sources familiar with the matter, the Chinese government is considering allowing yuan-backed stablecoins. China’s State Council will review a roadmap aimed at increasing global use of the yuan at the end of August, according to sources. This plan reportedly includes introducing yuan-backed stablecoins into international payment systems, in response to the US’s progress in the stablecoin space. If approved, this move would represent a fundamental shift in China’s long-held, hardline stance on cryptocurrencies. As is well known, China completely banned cryptocurrency trading and mining in September 2021. However, reports in recent months indicate that the Beijing government has adopted a more moderate approach, particularly towards stablecoins. In June, a senior official at the People’s Bank of China (PBOC) stated that stablecoins could play a transformative role in global payments systems. This statement fueled calls for their inclusion in regulatory frameworks. Experts emphasize that China’s move could accelerate the internationalization of the yuan and also impact balances in global financial markets. The stablecoin initiative, along with Beijing’s digital yuan project, could become central to its financial strategy. *This is not investment advice.

Ether Trader loses $6M, after epic run from $125k to $43M

The post Ether Trader loses $6M, after epic run from $125k to $43M appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. A cryptocurrency trader who recently increased their account from $125,000 to more than $43 million was almost liquidated on Wednesday for $6.2 million after Ether briefly fell near the $4,000 level. The liquidation took place on the decentralized exchange Hyperliquid as Ether (ETH) dipped close to $4,000 amid a broader market correction, highlighting the volatility that can catch even seasoned traders off guard. It came two days after the trader had turned an initial investment of $125,000 into more than $43 million at its peak, before locking in nearly $7 million worth of profit on Monday, Cointelegraph reported. “This legendary trader went long on $ETH again but was liquidated in the market crash, losing $6.22M,” said blockchain data platform Lookonchain in a Wednesday X post. “Now only $771K remains—4 months of gains nearly wiped out in just 2 days.” Wallet “0x5f7.” Source: Hyperdash Related: Crypto in US 401(k) retirement plans may drive Bitcoin to $200K in 2025 The market downturn also hit other prominent traders. Multimillionaire leverage trader James Wynn’s long Ether position was also partially liquidated, leaving him with a partial long of just $300,000 worth of ETH, which stands to be liquidated if Ether’s price falls below $4,113, according to Lookonchain’s Tuesday X post. Source: Lookonchain Wynn is among the industry’s most prominent traders expecting a forthcoming altcoin season during the current cycle. On Wednesday, after the partial liquidation, Wynn wrote that he was “all-in” with no more stablecoins left to invest, adding that he will be forced to “drastically cut down” living expenses if the altcoin season doesn’t occur.

Wormhole Foundation challenges LayerZero’s $110M Stargate acquisition proposal

The post Wormhole Foundation challenges LayerZero’s $110M Stargate acquisition proposal appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Wormhole Foundation (WF) entered the bidding competition for Stargate Finance, challenging LayerZero’s proposed $110 million acquisition. In an Aug. 20 statement via X, WF argued that LayerZero’s offer significantly undervalues the cross-chain bridge protocol. LayerZero Foundation announced its acquisition proposal on Aug. 10, offering to purchase all circulating STG tokens at $0.1675 per token through a swap for ZRO tokens. The proposal requires approval from STG holders through Stargate’s governance process, with a 70% approval threshold needed for passage. Wormhole Foundation contended that LayerZero’s bid fails to reflect Stargate’s true value, citing the protocol’s treasury holdings and recent performance metrics. Further, Wormhole shared that Stargate maintains over $92 million in treasury assets, including $76 million in stablecoins and $16 million in Ethereum, while demonstrating substantial growth momentum. Performance drives valuation dispute On-chain data shows that Stargate processed $4 billion in bridge volume during July 2025, representing a 10x year-over-year increase. As of Aug. 20, it had $348 million in total value locked (TVL) across more than 80 chains. According to the Wormhole Foundation: “STG holders deserve better. The current bid undervalues the protocol’s assets, brand, codebase, and team.” The WF added that these fundamentals justify a “meaningfully higher offer” than LayerZero’s proposed valuation. LayerZero Foundation defends its pricing, noting Stargate’s backing of $0.14444 per circulating token compared to its trading price of $0.1637 per token at proposal time. It added that based on its calculations, the offer represents a premium on both metrics. Differences beyond offers LayerZero positions the acquisition as ecosystem consolidation, noting Stargate’s established infrastructure and user base. The foundation plans to direct all future Stargate excess revenue toward ZRO token buybacks while expanding the protocol’s mandate beyond traditional bridging services. In addition, LayerZero argued that unified governance would eliminate resource conflicts between potentially competitive protocols. At the same…

Coinbase Says AltSeason Building as ETH, XRP, SOL, ADA, SHIB Drive $7 Trillion Capital Rotation ⋆ ZyCrypto

The post Coinbase Says AltSeason Building as ETH, XRP, SOL, ADA, SHIB Drive $7 Trillion Capital Rotation ⋆ ZyCrypto appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Advertisement &nbsp &nbsp Leading crypto exchange Coinbase has rolled out its monthly outlook report, in which it observed that Bitcoin’s market dominance dropped from 65% in May 2025 to 59% in August 2025. The firm noted that CoinMarketCap’s altcoin season index is currently below the 75 threshold, which is a signal that altcoin season is in motion. Per Coinbase’s data, the divergence in the Altcoin Season Index vs the total altcoin market cap denotes the surge in institutional interest in Ethereum (ETH), aided by rising demand from digital asset treasures and growing interests in stablecoins and real-world assets (RWas). Coinbase notes that, although its outlook remains constructive, its views on the altcoin season have evolved. To this effect, the firm attributes the decrease in Bitcoin’s dominance to an early rotation of capital into altcoins like Ethereum, XRP, Solana, Cardano, Shiba Inu, and Dogecoin, rather than a full-scale altcoin season at this current stage. However, the firm maintains an overall optimistic outlook fueled by macro factors and expected regulatory developments. As excerpts from the report read; Advertisement &nbsp “…. with the altcoin market cap climbing and the Altcoin Season Index showing early positive signals, we believe conditions are setting up for a potential rotation into a more mature altcoin season as we head into September.” Addressing the current conversation on whether Fed cuts could impact the market by indicating a local top for the crypto market come September, Coinbase asserts that Fed easing could instead boost an increase in retail participation in the mid-term. As noted in the report, this position is fueled by the bulk of retail capital observed on the sidelines in the money market funds and other places, which goes up to over $7 trillion.

Bessent Says Stablecoins Could Drive Trillion-Dollar Demand for U.S. Treasuries

The post Bessent Says Stablecoins Could Drive Trillion-Dollar Demand for U.S. Treasuries appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the administration regards passage of the GENIUS Act as “essential to securing American leadership in digital assets,” arguing that regulated stablecoins could widen access to the dollar for billions of people and generate a “surge in demand for U.S. Treasuries.” His remarks follow private discussions with issuers Tether and Circle on how the government might tailor short-term debt issuance to meet rising demand from the sector, according to the Financial Times. Bessent has signalled to Wall Street that he expects the stablecoin market to reach roughly $2 trillion and become a significant buyer of government securities, potentially easing concerns about financing the expanding federal deficit. Stablecoins are typically backed one-for-one by cash or Treasury bills, meaning each new token issued translates into incremental demand for the underlying bonds. Goldman Sachs echoed the Treasury’s optimism in a research note this week, describing the industry as being on the brink of a “stablecoin gold rush” with a total addressable market in the trillions of dollars as payment, settlement and cross-border remittance platforms adopt programmable money. The bank estimated a compound annual growth rate of about 40% for USD-denominated coins through 2027, citing clearer U.S. regulation and global appetite for dollar exposure. If the projections materialise, stablecoins would deepen liquidity at the short end of the Treasury curve while reinforcing the dollar’s role in global finance. Critics, however, caution that the instruments may reallocate rather than increase net demand for government debt, leaving the ultimate impact on funding costs uncertain.

The stablecoin marathon enters its first mile

The post The stablecoin marathon enters its first mile appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from The Breakdown newsletter. To read more editions, subscribe “Civilization advances by extending the number of important operations which we can perform without thinking of them.” — Alfred North Whitehead Investors love the pricing power of “last mile” businesses. Comcast charges $75 a month for internet access because it buried the cable outside your house that connects you to the world wide web. Walmart is the last mile of consumer goods because its shelves are where supply meets demand, and brands pay dearly (in discounts and promotions) to win a place on them. Amazon charges third-party sellers as much as 45% of their sale price for access to its virtual shelf space and last-mile network of warehouses and delivery trucks. Is this how the stablecoin business will work as well? Last week, we learned that both Stripe and Circle are building stablecoin-optimized blockchains, and the timing (on the same day, even) inevitably frames this as a competition: “Circle and Stripe now appear to be converging on the same goal: building rival financial networks for digital money,” Bloomberg reported. If so, they will likely be converging from different directions. Stripe’s blockchain, Tempo, is expected to focus first on retail-merchant payments, while Circle’s Arc sounds more like behind-the-scenes infrastructure — “an enterprise-grade foundation for stablecoin payments, FX and capital markets applications,” as they pitch it. It’s tempting to say Stripe starts with an advantage here, since it’s already a last-mile business — it owns the checkout button and the customer relationship, connecting directly to more than a million merchants. Circle, by contrast, has no direct contact to its end-users at all — we get our USDC on exchanges, not from Circle itself. But the last mile isn’t always the place to make money. Gas stations, for example, earn only…

Judge unfreezes over $57M in stablecoins linked to Libra token scandal

A US judge has unfrozen $57.6 million in USDC (USDC) stablecoins tied to the Libra token scandal in February, giving memecoin promoter Hayden Davis and former CEO of the Meteora decentralized exchange Ben Chow access to the funds.US judge Jennifer L. Rochon froze the funds in May as part of a hearing in a class-action lawsuit against Davis, Chow, blockchain infrastructure company KIP Protocol and KIP’s co-founder, Julian Peh.The Judge said the defendants did not demonstrate “irreparable” harm because the funds to reimburse victims are still available, and the defendants have made no effort to move the frozen funds, according to Law360.Read more
