The unit can now execute virtual asset orders, hold the assets in custody and offer staking.The government statement named the subsidiary as Revolut Global Digital Assets Limited (RGDAL). It also said Revolut has fully resumed signing up Gibraltar residents to its payments app.The reopening followed talks between the company, Trade and Industry Minister Nigel Feetham and the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission (GFSC). The statement did not say why sign-ups had stopped.London's trading industry is coming home!Revolut already offers crypto through Revolut Ltd in the UK and through Revolut Digital Assets Europe across the 30-country European Economic Area, under a MiCA license from Cyprus that reaches about 450 million people.The company said the Gibraltar unit will support its crypto business in what it calls key expansion markets.In May, Revolut named Michael Schroeder, formerly Coinbase's head of risk for Europe, as global head of crypto expansion, a role he said includes licensing and market launches.Gibraltar Expects Three DLT Permissions This WeekThe government expects to issue three distributed ledger technology (DLT) permissions this week. It cited continued interest from major international firms.The minister has promoted the territory's licensing regimes more actively since higher UK gambling taxes put pressure on its remote gaming industry. In March, Gibraltar licensed its first prediction market operator.Feetham called the Revolut permission "an important development for Gibraltar's virtual asset sector."Chief Minister Fabian Picardo, quoted in Revolut's own statement, said the company's choice to expand its crypto business from Gibraltar reflected the territory's reputation.Gibraltar's DLT framework has drawn crypto exchanges for years. Block.one's exchange Bullish received a Gibraltar DLT license in November 2021, two years after CEX.IO obtained one.The GFSC has also used its powers against crypto firms. In January 2024, it canceled the registration of Quickbit's Gibraltar unit after an inspection found breaches in customer due diligence.Revolut Has Not Named the MarketsRevolut said details of the regions and services covered by RGDAL will come later. One market still pending is the UAE, where Dubai's Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (VARA) gave Revolut in-principle approval in July, ahead of a final license.Emil Urmanshin, general manager of crypto and new bets at Revolut, tied the approval to the company's compliance standards in a company statement.Gibraltar is "an ideal jurisdiction to support our global operational framework," Urmanshin said.In September, Revolut hired Nilesh Khatwani from Crypto.com to run institutional crypto sales as the company prepared its Dubai launch.

ADA futures open interest fell to $475.58 million from $549.14 million, reflecting reduced derivatives exposure.
Positive funding shows a modest bullish tilt among perpetual traders, leaving longs vulnerable if prices fall further.
ADA remains below key moving averages, with $0.1894 emerging as a potential downside target.
Cardano Stabilizes After Sharp Weekly Decline
Cardano held above $0.2200 on Monday as buyers attempted to steady the price following a roughly 12% decline last week.
ADA has lost more than 10% so far in October, while weakening derivatives activity and subdued large-wallet positioning suggest limited conviction behind a recovery.
The daily chart also remains under pressure after last week&rsquo;s break below trendline support near $0.2321. With the token trading beneath its key moving averages, sellers retain the near-term advantage.
CoinGlass data shows that Cardano futures open interest declined to $465.87 million on Monday from $549.14 million last week.
That represents a reduction of approximately 14.5% in the notional value of outstanding contracts.
The decline suggests reduced derivatives exposure, though it does not prove that retail traders alone are leaving the market. Falling ADA prices can reduce dollar-denominated open interest, while position closures and liquidations can also contribute.
The funding rate remained positive at 0.0032%, indicating that long positions were paying shorts in the tracked perpetual market.
That modest positive reading suggests some traders are still positioned for a rebound. However, funding alone does not demonstrate excessive leverage.&amp;
A further price decline could nevertheless put vulnerable long positions under pressure and trigger additional forced selling.
Onchain figures suggest large holders have made only modest adjustments to their exposure.
According to Santiment data, wallets holding more than 100 million ADA accounted for 15.99% of circulating supply, slightly higher than 15.95% last week.
Meanwhile, the cohort holding between 10 million and 100 million ADA represented 38.11% of supply, down from 38.27%.
The opposing movements provide a mixed picture rather than a clear accumulation trend. They also do not, by themselves, establish whether tokens were sold, transferred between wallets or moved across holding categories.
Combined with lower futures exposure, the figures offer limited evidence of renewed buying conviction.
Cardano&rsquo;s technical outlook remains bearish
ADA continues to trade beneath its 50-day Exponential Moving Average near $0.2290 and its 200-day EMA around $0.2395.
The loss of trendline support near $0.2321 adds to the weak structure, leaving several barriers above the current price.
Momentum indicators reinforce the bearish bias. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator remains below zero with a negative histogram, while the Relative Strength Index hovers around 41.
The RSI reading suggests sellers retain the upper hand, although ADA has not reached the conventional oversold threshold of 30.
Without a recovery through nearby resistance, the latest stabilization remains a pause within the correction rather than confirmation of a trend reversal.
The psychological $0.20 level is an immediate downside reference if selling resumes. Below it, the August 30 low near $0.1894 represents the next structural support.&amp;
A move toward that level would be about 14%&amp;-15% downside from the current price area.
On the upside, buyers first need to challenge the 50-day EMA at $0.2290. The former trendline support near $0.2321 then presents another obstacle, followed by the 200-day EMA at $0.2395.
A sustained recovery through those levels would help weaken the bearish setup. Until then, Cardano remains exposed to further losses as traders assess whether demand can strengthen around $0.2200.

Does real-world asset
trading on crypto exchanges feel like a genuine revolution, or does it feel
like a warehouse full of boxes nobody opens? I think you know the answer. London's trading industry is coming home!The RWA sector has a serious liquidity problem, and saying
it out loud shouldn't make anyone uncomfortable. The numbers tell the story
better than any narrative can.The Scale of the Liquidity GapStart with the scale of the gap. Pantera Capital’s September
2026 report surveyed 671 tokenized assets worth a combined $331.8 billion.
Permissioned products, the kind that require whitelisting and approval to hold,
make up 59% of the total market cap. They contribute exactly 0.2% of spot
trading volume. Read that again. More than 50% of this sector's value barely
moves. Open-access products account for 41% of market cap and generate 99.8% of
all spot trading. The sector splits cleanly into two worlds. One world trades.
The other sits still.BlackRock’s
BUIDL fund offers the clearest illustration. The fund holds $2.77 billion
across 10 chains. It has 106 investors and recorded just 191 transfers in a
single month. That's roughly six transfers per day for a multi-billion-dollar
product. Franklin Templeton’s BENJI fund reported 562 holders and $0 in monthly
transfer volume. Compare that velocity with stablecoins, which turn over
roughly 21 times their float every month. BUIDL turns over 0.12 times. That is
a 180-fold gap in how much these assets actually move.The IMF weighed in with its October 2026 Global Financial
Stability Report, and the findings deserve attention. IMF staff described
tokenized markets as small, fragmented, relatively illiquid and roughly 1.5
times more volatile than traditional counterparts. Most tokenized activity
happens in repurchase agreements, which average $300 billion to $350 billion in
daily volume. Everything else, including credit, money market funds and
tokenized equities, adds just $65 billion. To put that in perspective, the US
repo market alone trades about $13 trillion daily. The entire tokenized
universe outside repos represents a rounding error against traditional finance.Holder Growth Does Not Equal LiquidityNow here comes the counterargument, and it has real data
behind it. BNB Chain’s RWA holder count crossed 2 million in early October
2026, reaching 2,032,387 addresses, up 15.56% in just 30 days. Tokenized
stockholders across all chains hit 4.3 million by late September, a 43-fold
increase in a single year. BNB Chain alone holds 39% of all on-chain RWA
holders. These growth rates look spectacular. They also demand context.Holder counts and trading depth are entirely different
things. Only 29 of 110 major tokenized products, those with market caps above
$10 million, meet even basic thresholds for both liquidity and distribution.
That is roughly 26%. More than 50% of the analysed market shows no meaningful
secondary trading activity.Why Some Tokenized Assets Trade BetterTokenized
gold stands as the exception that proves the rule. PAXG and XAUT together
generated $90.7 billion in Q1 2026 spot volume, surpassing the full-year 2025
total of $84.64 billion. Average monthly spot volumes reached $5.72 billion for
PAXG and $5.32 billion for XAUT. Gold works because it has natural turnover,
broad appeal and deep market-maker interest. Tokenized treasuries do not work
the same way because they function as buy-and-hold instruments. The Pantera
data shows tokenized stocks achieving 204.6% monthly turnover while rate
products languish at 0.1%. The asset class determines the liquidity profile,
not the blockchain.Turnover rates for tokenized stocks hit 204.6% in June,
making them the most actively traded RWA category. The market is not uniformly
illiquid. The problem is concentrated in the market-cap-dominant products.
Tokenized treasuries grew from $13 billion to $16.5 billion between Q1 and Q2
2026, yet they generate almost no secondary trading. Private credit expanded
from $4.1 billion to $5.1 billion, with similarly low turnover. The biggest,
most institutional products are precisely the ones that do not trade.Table: Tokenized Stocks vs. Tokenized Rate ProductsIssuance Is Easy, but Liquidity Is NotThis is the inflated part. Issuance has become easy.
Wrapping a treasury bill or a stock into a token requires technical work, not a
market miracle. Creating a liquid secondary market demands market makers,
regulatory clarity, interoperable venues and genuine demand from traders who
want to buy and sell continuously. Those pieces do not exist yet for most RWAs.
The Tokenization Preparedness Index, which Pantera introduced to measure how
natively an asset operates on-chain, scored just 2.04 out of a possible higher
range across the sample. Most assets are simple wrappers, not native
instruments.Look at where actual trading activity concentrates. Tokenized
stock perpetual futures on platforms like Hyperliquid generated $67.8
billion in June volume, 16 times the spot market for the underlying tokens.
Traders prefer derivatives because they offer leverage, easier shorting and
liquidity from concentrated market-making. The spot tokens themselves remain
thin. This pattern mirrors how crypto markets developed for native assets, and
it suggests the RWA spot market will eventually catch up. It also confirms that
the spot market isn't where the action is right now.Adoption Is Real, but Depth Remains LimitedI believe the run is real. Tokenization solves genuine
problems around settlement speed, fractional ownership and 24/7 access. The IMF
found that more than 50% of tokenized
equity trading occurs outside traditional market hours and that roughly 80%
of the analysed trades were for fewer than one share, suggesting retail
investors are using these products to access opportunities they could not
otherwise access. That is meaningful adoption. But meaningful adoption of a
product does not equal deep, reliable liquidity. A user who buys a fractional
share and holds it contributes to the holder count without adding to market
depth.I like @chameleon_jeff's reply about tokenized stocks: "Overrated."
He is speaking my language.
This panel was at Token2049 in Singapore. Panelists include @StaniKulechov, @gdog97_, and @hosseeb.
Sharing my article soon. https://t.co/3xL4Mx3ZXl— Anndy Lian (@anndylian) October 14, 2026A more sustainable version of this sector, which I expect to
see within two to three years, will look different. Open-access tokens will
dominate trading, not permissioned ones. RWAs will find routine use as
collateral in DeFi lending, a trend already visible on platforms like Morpho,
where private credit leads utilisation. Market makers will build hybrid venues
that connect centralised exchange order books with on-chain pools. Clearer
regulation in major jurisdictions will reduce the friction that currently keeps
assets locked behind whitelists. The Tokenization Preparedness Index will rise
as products become more native and less wrapper-like.The Next Run Needs Better Market StructureThe current phase is a beginning, and beginnings are messy.
As Jeff Yan from Hyperliquid put it: "Overrated".I believe the start needs to be better, not because the
technology fails, but because the market structure around it has not caught up.
When it does, the next run will rest on trading depth rather than holder
inflation. That run will last longer and matter more.

Bitwise&#8217;s NEAR ETF (NRR) is now available on NYSE Arca.
The fund will stake NEAR with a maximum staking reward of approximately 5% per annum.
Over $32 billion volume has been processed by NEAR Intents.

Bitwise Asset Management has launched the first U.S. spot exchange-traded product offering direct exposure to NEAR, giving traditional investors a new route into the blockchain’s token through brokerage accounts.
The Bitwise NEAR ETF debuted on NYSE Arca on September 29th under the symbol NRR, charging a 0.75% management fee, and offering a combination of the spot NEAR exposure and staking.
Bitwise Brings Spot NEAR Exposure to U.S. Investors
NRR does not trade futures or other derivatives of NRR, but rather holds NRR outright. The structure can also cause the investors to demand ETF shares, which in turn could drive purchases of the underlying token to the ETF during its creation, potentially linking capital inflows to demand for the NEAR spot market.
The product offers investors a way to buy NEAR without having to deal directly with private keys and wallets, or go through a crypto exchange.
This family of single-asset crypto offerings has grown to now include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, XRP and Hyperliquid, the company said in a Monday release.

Staking Adds a 5% Yield Component
Bitwise also plans to institutionalize a significant percentage of NRR&#8217;s holdings in NEAR.
The annualized neargstake reward rate was approximately 5 percent as of September 25, but this will not be a guaranteed rate of return. Net asset value will accrue the rewards a stakeholder earns from the fund, not as a fixed yield.
The structure brings in more risks, like the potential for slashing, operational challenges and liquidity problems from not having the tokens available at redemption time.
Read More: Bitwise Hyperliquid ETF Targets $11B HYPE Market
NEAR Intents Tops $32B in Transaction Volume
Bitwise is also marking the ETF release with the progress of NEAR&#8217;s position in the ecosystem of AI-powered blockchain infrastructure. According to data from Bitwise, NEAR Intents, the network&#8217;s cross-chain transaction protocol, has seen over $32 billion in transaction volume, down from under $1 billion a year ago.
The protocol&#8217;s goal was to enable users and autonomous software agents to interact in a distributed manner without needing to take care of each routing transaction individually.
Bitwise says this may grow even more important as AI agents start making payments, swaps and other financial transactions for users. NEAR transactions now complete in about 1.2 seconds, and Bitwise reported 100% uptime across the network for six years at this point.
NRR Extends Bitwise’s NEAR Strategy Into the U.S.
The U.S. opening follows Bitwise&#8217;s existing operation in Europe and already has a BaFin-approved staking ETP. As per the data as of June 30, 2026, Bitwise has managed around $9 billion worth of clients&#8217; assets.

Binance Pay is now available for visitors to use at PayPay merchants in Japan.
Crypto is immediately converted to JPY.
The Binance Pay tourist users have increased by 20% between July and August 2026.
User Score8.7
Follow us on Google News
Binance is expanding crypto payments in Japan through a new integration between Binance Pay and PayPay, one of the country’s largest QR payment networks.
It provides features which allow eligible tourists to use the crypto payments at the millions of stores supported by PayPay without a prior exchange of yen or sign up for a local payment account.
Binance Pay Connects Crypto to Japan’s PayPay Network
Japan is also allowing tourists to pay using crypto in the local retail market while they are travelling the country using their Binance account balance.
A merchant can have a code to open Binance Pay at checkout, and paykey can read the code to complete the transaction. For some stores, visitors can also scan the store&#8217;s PayPay QR and type the amount of the purchase.
The crypto currency is converted in real time to the JPY units and the merchant gets the local currency. That&#8217;s no longer a problem because travelers can use digital assets without having to sell them for JPY first or withdraw cash.
The feature is accessible just for tourists to Japan who are Binance ID verified customers. Not usable to Japanese people.

Stablecoins and Major Crypto Assets Can Fund Payments
According to Binance&#8217;s description of its QR payment network, Binance Pay currently lets people pay for travel with assets like USDT, USDC, BTC, BNB and ETH.
The payment system will also perform the translation from crypto to fiat with checkout, so that all users still have the same purchasing process in every country.
Additionally, Binance claims that users are not charged any blockchain gas fees when making these payments via Binance Pay.
The solution simplifies the solution for travellers who would otherwise need to spend local currency first or make a separate wallet beforehand to send and receive crypto during travel.
Binance Pay Tourist Activity Jumps 20%
Binance has noted that there is an increasing trend of tourists using cryptocurrencies, with active users rising 20% from July to August 2026.
Japan becomes another market where the firm is expanding its payments with QR code business across Asia.
Instead of creating a new merchant network, Binance Pay integrates with the local payment ecosystem, allowing merchants to seamlessly utilize the QR codes already in use at their physical locations.
The same idea has been used in Vietnam as well, by integrating VietQR for tourists to pay with crypto while local fiat is paid to merchants.

Japan Expands Binance Pay’s Asian QR Footprint
PayPay provides Binance Pay with a vast network of merchants in convenient stores, restaurants and other common venues spread throughout Japan.
The integration is for bitcoin customers to spend cryptocurrencies the same way they spend money, rather than via a whole separate blockchain payment. Binance will roll out this model to other Asia-Pacific and other markets where QR payment is already popular.
The company is focusing on markets with strong tourist traffic and established QR infrastructure, allowing travelers to use one Binance Pay account across multiple destinations without changing their payment setup each time.

Morgan Stanley has opened a Digital Asset Lab dedicated to blockchain technologies.
The test is to be applied to the stablecoins, the tokenized assets and DeFi applications.
This lab allows employees to try things that they don&#8217;t want to do to the bank&#8217;s core systems.

Morgan Stanley has given its crypto research a boost with a new blockchain lab, dedicated to joining blockchain-based infrastructure into its financial business toolkit.
The initiative gives the Wall Street bank a controlled environment to study digital money, tokenized products and decentralized finance tools before considering wider deployment.
Morgan Stanley Tests Stablecoins and Tokenized Finance
The new lab will focus on blockchain based financial infrastructure and stablecoins, tokenized deposits, central bank digital currencies and tokenized money-market funds.
Morgan Stanley is also looking at deFi apps that might find their way into automating financial activity outside normal market hours.
A specific area of interest is how software-based systems can continuously handle investment strategies, with transactions recorded on the blockchain and investment rules executed as they are generated.
The lab will be part of Morgan Stanley&#8217;s existing innovation labs. Staff have the opportunity to trial new technology in a testing environment, minimising the impact on the bank&#8217;s primary systems.

DeFi Vaults Join the Testing List
Another technology that is being considered is DeFi vaults. A smart contract could automate investment strategies or asset management functions as per programmed conditions within these systems. Morgan Stanley is investigating the possibility of combining the model with the standard available financial products.
The bank also plans to examine the differences between tokenized bank deposits and stablecoins. Unlike stablecoins which are backed by a different reserve asset, tokenized deposits are a claim against money that is held by a bank.
It is hoped that learning how both models can fit within institutional finance will be an integral aspect of the lab&#8217;s tasks.
Crypto Research Builds on Existing Products
Morgan Stanley is not entering digital assets from scratch. It already hosts Bitcoin, Ether and Solana on its E*TRADE platform for eligible clients and has also introduced cryptocurrency-based investment products.
The bank took the stablecoin industry in its stride too. The Morgan Stanley Investment Management government money-market portfolio was launched partly for the purpose of using it to hold a reserve of stablecoins.
That product focuses on reserve assets such as cash, short-term U.S. Treasurys and Treasury-backed repurchase agreements.
The new Digital Asset Lab is for a different purpose. It&#8217;s not another product on the market, It&#8217;s a test about how blockchain can be applied to financial operations.

Wall Street Pushes Deeper Into Blockchain Infrastructure
As major financial institutions show increased interest in tokenization of assets and blockchain settlement systems, Morgan Stanley&#8217;s research echoes the trend.
The bank is also exploring the banks of digital finance, from the underlying infrastructure of the system, like blockchain-based programmable assets and automated investment services, to custody.
For its part, the financial firm&#8217;s proposed trust platform is said to be part of Morgan Stanley&#8217;s plans to launch a crypto infrastructure, including custody and services provided by outside parties.
For now, the technologies being tested in the Digital Asset Lab remain experimental. Products such as tokenized deposits and DeFi vaults are research areas rather than services currently available to Morgan Stanley clients.

Following recent supply-chain incidents, we decided to reduce the number of resellers so we can more effectively check those we work with.
Let us be very clear: there is not a single piece of evidence that Trezor devices have been compromised.
This is a preventive step, taken out of an abundance of caution. We also want to thank everyone involved for the cooperation, and for the years of work putting Trezor in people’s hands.

Trezor Reduces Reseller Network After Supply-Chain Incidents
Trezor says it will engage fewer resellers, in an effort to more closely monitor the partners it is putting its hardware wallet products into the hands of. The firm attributed the action to counter security breaches in the hardware wallet space in the recent past.
Trezor CCO Danny Sanders also announced that some resellers had been notified that they will no longer be part of Trezor&#8217;s authorized sellers from 1st January. In addition, affected resellers were also meant to have their shipments stopped.
To the resellers who helped build Trezor: thank you, and I’m sorry ???? https://t.co/RK7KBJOshp

Trezor thanked its long-term distribution partners in order to extend access to its wallets, and noted that the new policy applies to companies working with the brand for many years.

Trezor Says No Devices Have Been Compromised
One clear point that was set is that there is no evidence of Trezor hardware wallets being compromised.
The difference is significant, since the resellers belong to a report in which competitor hardware wallet provider Ledger is involved with an illegal hardware installation in at least one wallet.
They reported that it was not a typical attack regarding the firmware modification. Malicious hardware was made so as to collect confidential information for the purpose of recovery, and send it outside of the device.
Existing set-up on Trezor is designed to detect tampering, including counterfeiting, and firmware alteration, but a hardware tampering is a new form of a supply-chain threat.
Hardware Wallet Security Moves Beyond Firmware
The incident marks the scope of a problem afflicting self-custody users in general. Even though hardware wallets have secure, offline characteristics, their security can be influenced by how they move from manufacturer to the customer.
A physically tampered with device could outsmart a device that protects primarily against changes in the instruction set software or the firmware. That&#8217;s why, instead of making any announcement regarding the wallets, Trezor is putting more focus on reseller supervision.

Users Urged to Check Where Their Wallet Comes From
Trezor has recommended its users to buy devices from the company if at all possible and ensure the products are intact. Users with larger crypto portfolios are further presented with multisignature setups as an option by the firm.
In the case of multisig, multiple keys are needed to validate a deal, which means that in the event of a compromised device, it will be unable to move funds alone. The reseller reduction, therefore, is a security measure for the supply chain and not a reaction to a confirmed hack on Trezor.

Coinbase and Marqeta are continuing to work together on their current payments partnership to continue enabling stablecoin swaps into regular card transactions for businesses.
The partnership integrates Coinbase&#8217;s crypto platform with Marqeta&#8217;s card issuing and payments platform, which are aimed at both traditional businesses and crypto-native companies.
Coinbase Brings Stablecoin Infrastructure to Marqeta Cards
The custody of stablecoins and conversion between digital assets and fiat will be done by Coinbase.
The on-chain infrastructure for fast &amp; cheap settlement will be provided by Base, the blockchain of Coinbase. Marqeta will handle the issuance of cards, the processing of payments, and developing connections with banks and payment networks.
The configuration provides enterprise customers with a payments stack that does not require extra infra for custody, conversion, blockchain settlement and card processing.
There will also be more flexibility in funding businesses&#8217; card programs outside the traditional banking hours.

Stablecoin Balances Become Everyday Spending Power
The partnership will implement a mechanism that will transform stablecoins in digital wallets into cards to use as balances.
After a stablecoin-backed card starts and sees the light of day via Marqeta, consumers will be able to spend against their stablecoin as numerous merchants already accept card payments worldwide.
Coinbase provides the digital asset layer behind those transactions, while Marqeta connects that infrastructure with existing card networks. The alliance is expected to simplify integration of stablecoins to consumer and business products, the companies say.

Marqeta Expands Its Stablecoin Card Stack
Even though it is a new venture, this partnership continues a long association between the two companies, with Marqeta already distributing cards backed by crypto through Coinbase. The increased partnership puts emphasis on Marqeta&#8217;s global enterprise client base.
For Marqeta, Coinbase&#8217;s adding custody, fiat conversion and blockchain settlement services to their capabilities. Then, customers have one platform to create both traditional and digital asset payment products.
Base Handles Fast, Low-Cost Settlement
The onchain settlement layer for the stablecoin-backed card infrastructure will be determined by Base.
Adding real-time mobility and payment capabilities to Coinbase&#8217;s stablecoin payment rails and Marqeta&#8217;s issuing technology will allow businesses and consumers to make transactions around the world, Coinbase stated.
The partnership would allow businesses to create cards, infill their programs over time and provide users with direct access to their stablecoin balances via payment networks, Marqeta said.

The spending marked a sharp increase over what Fairshake said in September it initially planned to spend opposing Brown’s return to the Senate: $30 million.“I’ve spent my career taking on Wall Street, taking on big pharma, taking on big oil and been successful in many cases,” said Brown in an interview aired Friday on Pod Save America, addressing the attack ads funded by the crypto industry, adding:Read more]]></description><link>https://coinsnews.com/crypto-pacs-escalate-spending-against-sherrod-brown-in-ohio-senate-race</link><guid>902290</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content >https://s3-images.ctmedia.io/media/article-covers/2026/10/01M52HJ9YWKB542GFBKZMAPWM1/dollars-fly-away-us-senate-1.jpg</dc:content ><dc:text>Crypto PACs escalate spending against Sherrod Brown in Ohio Senate race</dc:text></item><item><title>Stablecoin remittances cost 84% less than traditional transfers, report finds </title><description><![CDATA[Borderless.xyz data shows major savings on cross-border business payments, with stablecoin transfers also settling faster than traditional international bank wires.

Grayscale and Republic have joined forces to increase adoption of several digital asset investment solutions covering some of crypto&#8217;s newsworthy segments.
Excited to partner with @Grayscale to expand investor access on three innovative funds
— Republic (@joinrepublic) October 15, 2026
Through the investment platform the Grayscale DeFi Fund, Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund and Grayscale Data Network Trust are now available to eligible accredited investors.
Grayscale Brings Three Crypto Strategies to Republic
The release introduces investors to the world of digital assets&#8217; market, without putting all their eggs in one basket. Grayscale DeFi Fund is based on a market-cap-weighted index of decentralized finance protocols engaged in lending, trading, and asset-management.
We&#8217;re excited to announce a partnership with @joinrepublic to expand access to Grayscale investment products for eligible investors.
Grayscale products to be available on the Republic platform are:
• Grayscale DeFi Fund: exposure to a basket of leading DeFi protocols
$UNI, $AAVE, $ONDO, $ENA, $CRV, $LDO
• Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund: exposure to protocols operating at the intersection of blockchain and AI
$NEAR, $TAO, $RENDER, $FIL
• Grayscale Data Network Trust: exposure to $DATA, the native token of the DATA Network.
Visit the landing page on Republic to learn more: https://t.co/G16O6hRB3i
— Grayscale (@Grayscale) October 15, 2026
It presents several massive DeFi ecosystems in a single product, such as UNI, AAVE, ONDO, ENA, CRV and LDO.
The Grayscale Decentralized AI Fund is focused on protocols that exist in the intersection of blockchain and artificial intelligence. It has stakes in projects from decentralized computing, storage and AI infrastructure including NEAR, TAO, RENDER and FIL.

DATA Trust Targets AI Training Infrastructure
The third product is the Grayscale Data Network Trust, which is focused on the native token of the DATA Network, that same name, “DATA”. According to Grayscale, the network is an AI training infrastructure that pulls data from the same source, verifies, and issues the licenses for training AI models.
This builds an onchain log of data provenance, offers licensing conditions and compensation for rights holders and contributors, and makes the product focus specific, as opposed to the broad range of DeFi and AI funds.

$2,500 Minimum Opens Earlier Access
Eligible users must invest at least $2,500 of money to invest with Republic, the co-CEO of the organisation said.
The partnership aims to provide more investors than ever before with the chance to be the first to access these products during an earlier development phase typically more open to institutions.
Grayscale CEO Peter Mintzberg indicated that the company evinces the most interesting areas for activity in the digital asset economy include DeFi, decentralized AI, and onchain data infrastructure.
Some of the most compelling opportunities in digital assets are in DeFi, decentralized AI, and onchain data infrastructure.
We&#8217;ve spent more than a decade pioneering products and strategies that offer investors exposure to the digital assets ecosystem.
Our partnership with @joinrepublic gives more eligible investors access to the most innovative areas of the fast-growing digital economy.
— Peter Mintzberg (@PeterMintzberg) October 15, 2026
Grayscale Expands Beyond Single-Asset Crypto Exposure
The Republic partnership represents Grayscale&#8217;s continued efforts to diversify its flagship crypto product offerings.
The new distribution channel does not just aim at providing exposure to Bitcoin or Ethereum, but rather offers eligible investors exposure to thematic baskets of decentralized finance and artificial intelligence (AI) related crypto infrastructure assets.
These products continue to be private placement securities and are offered to only qualified and accredited investors.
The investments are also highly speculative, liquid and carry the risk of total loss, and are very different from freely traded spot crypto products, according to Grayscale.

After nearly seven years at OKX, Haider Rafique has decided to step aside due to family and various personal reasons.
He played a key role in building the exchange&#8217;s global brand and in its increasing visibility via key sports and entertainment deals.
Due to the increasing institutional engagement for OKX and the company&#8217;s ambition to bridge the gap between crypto and traditional finance, his exit is happening now.

Haider Rafique, OKX’s global managing partner and chief marketing officer, announced that he is stepping back from his position after nearly seven years with the crypto exchange. The announcement marks a change for one of the executives closely associated with OKX’s brand development and international profile.
After almost seven years at @OKX, I am stepping back from my role to take a meaningful break, focus on my family and personal priorities, and make space for what comes next.
It has been an incredible privilege to help build the @OKX brand and see its growth. I am deeply grateful to Star Xu @star_okx for his trust, partnership, and the opportunities he created for all of us.
And thank you to every OKX employee I have had the privilege to work alongside. I am proud of what we built together and excited to see the company continue to grow.
This is not goodbye. It is simply the next chapter.
— haider (@Haider) October 16, 2026
Haider Rafique Announces His Departure From OKX
On the social media platform X, Rafique revealed that he would like to take a meaningful break and spend time with his family and some personal priorities before having any idea of what is in the next steps.
He further shared his thoughts on the exchange, thanking its founder Star Xu for his trust and collaboration. Sitting alongside the employees, Rafique expressed his gratitude and was proud of the team that he has formed.
He made this transition a message, and not a final good-bye. He didn&#8217;t fill in the void during the break with an announcement of a new position or details of his plans. According to reports published on October 16, his departure is expected by the end of 2026. But there was no final working date announced for the public.

Seven Years of Building the OKX Brand
Rafique came aboard when crypto exchanges were vying with each other to attract some of the trading community away from the masses. His contributions went beyond merely creating marketing campaigns, ranging from brand positioning to gaining international exposure and aligning with crypto-escrow organizations.
From Rebranding to Global Partnerships
He is also involved in the re-brand initiative from OKEx to OKX, which aims to align the company with its wider branding as a digital asset platform.
OKX also established itself in the traditional sports and entertainment industries via science collaborations with Manchester City, the McLaren Formula 1 team and the Tribeca Festival. These partnerships provided those exchanges with access to audiences they wouldn&#8217;t have otherwise.
These kinds of agreements have grown to be a vital component of crypto organizations&#8217; strategies for making their brands visible. In addition to product and technology, visibility and public trust can shape the competition between exchanges in various markets.
OKX Expands Its Institutional Crypto Strategy
Rafique said this comes during a crucial time for OKX&#8217;s institutional operations. In March 2026, Intercontinental Exchange, the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, is reported to have invested around $200 million in OKX at a valuation of around $25 billion.
The exchange has also been working on integrating digital currencies with conventional financial services. Circle, Ripple, Qube Research &amp; Technologies and Standard Chartered&#8217;s SC Ventures were reportedly late to the party in October, extending the round.

As part of Episode Six, it has introduced Verified Backing for bank-issued stablecoins and tokenized deposits.
The system checks backing at issuance and redemption, not only after transactions.
Available in 50+ markets, Episode Six operates worldwide.
User Score8.7
Follow us on Google News
With its E6 Token Control Ledger, episode Six has added a real-time verification layer for banks releasing stablecoins and tokenization deposits. Verified Backing is a new capability intended to ensure that a token provides backing upon issuance, and upon subsequent redemption by a customer.
Episode Six Checks Stablecoins at Two Critical Moments
Verified Backing works at the issuance and redemption, the two areas in which banks may have the highest risk of using tokenized money.
Before a bank creates a supported stablecoin or tokenized deposit, the system verifies that the required backing has been recorded. It will involve a validation check to ensure at redemption that the token has not been cashed out already, and that the bank&#8217;s ledger bears its support.
Episode Six situates it in one that challenges and moves beyond the practice of traditional reconciliation where inconsistencies are only discovered after transactions.

Checks Continue Even After Tokens Move Across Wallets and Chains
The verification process runs inside the issuing bank’s E6 Token Control Ledger. Even if a token passes through several wallets or blockchain networks before it comes back to the bank, episode Six will apply the redemption check.
This provides the issuing institution with a more complete record on the bank side, with which to check the status of the token, as opposed to just after issuance.
Verified Backing Targets Stablecoin Redemption Risk
An important issue about banks that issue tokenized money is, does an asset presented for a redemption amount correspond with a valid outstanding obligation?
It&#8217;s not just the question of whether tokens were legitimate at creation, it&#8217;s about whether they are legitimate at redemption, said Episode Six APAC Managing Director, Daryn Griggs.
Verified Backing is meant to assist banks in answering that question in real time by verifying the status of the token and the validated backing before money leaves the bank&#8217;s vaults.

Episode Six Expands Tokenized Banking Infrastructure
Verified Backing will be added to the Episode Six Token Control Ledger for users in the markets that Episode Six is available in.
The company offers card issuing and ledger infrastructure across over 50 countries across millions of accounts and billions of payment transactions around the world.
The feature could be extended to tokens or tokenized deposits issued by a bank and enter their supported alphabetic stablecoin, says Episode Six.
The launch follows a trend toward an infrastructure that allows banks to create and oversee the tokenization of money, all while retaining the ability to directly oversee backing, redemption and internal records.

Global Money Platform For Fiat and Stablecoin Payment by Mastercard and BVNK.
Mastercard Move links to 17B+ devices globally.
The plan is to cover 40+ blockbuster currencies by 2027 as well as 200+ markets.

Stablecoins will gain more ground in real-world payments services through stablecoin infrastructure firm BVNK’s partnership with Mastercard and the Global Money Platform service introduced by the latter in August 2026.
The platform offers a single infrastructure layer to banks, fintechs and enterprises to store, convert, send and spend both traditional and stable currency.
Mastercard Combines Fiat and Stablecoins in One API
Global Money Platform&#8217;s core feature is a multi-currency wallet, where stablecoins and fiat currencies differ and go side by side.
There is a single API to enable businesses to switch between the two rather than having to buy separate services for accounts, blockchain infrastructure, settlement and payments.
Stablecoins linked cards and local bank payouts and treasury are also among its features. These functions can be integrated in-platform in the company&#8217;s products and sold as part of a company&#8217;s brand.
The solution can help save multiple vendors, accounts and pre-funded balances for enterprises across multiple nations, Mastercard says.

Mastercard Move Opens Access to 17 Billion Endpoints
Global Money Platform is directly linked to Mastercard Move, Mastercard&#8217;s global money movement infrastructure that spans to over 17 billion endpoints.
This enables businesses to direct local-currency payments straight to the recipients bank accounts without the need to balance with stablecoins. Mastercard is looking forward to growth in the service with a targeted expansion to over 40 currencies in more than 200 countries and territories by 2027.
Stablecoin balances will also be available to use on Mastercard&#8217;s worldwide acceptance network, including hundreds of millions of merchants&#8217; engagement points. Platform issuing is anticipated to be offered in over 130 countries.
Nuvei, Marqeta and Three More Firms Join Early Rollout
Alongside Ontop, Bolt Group and Almond FinTech, Nuvei and Marqeta are among the first ones to be getting ready to integrate with Global Money Platform. The integration will give their users the ability to transfer seamlessly between traditional and stablecoins and benefit from existing payment and banking options.
Mastercard&#8217;s entry marks a step bigger than just making transactions possible for the stablecoin company. Now the company is offering services which could be embedded in products of other financial firms.
Mastercard Builds Toward a Multi-Money Payment System
Global Money Platform is a platform built on a modular approach including send, receive, convert, store, spend and earn. The customer can start using just the services he or she requires and later upgrade to other services as desired.
Not only is this, but Mastercard is also looking to add more functionality to the platform than what is currently available in fiat currencies and stablecoins. Future support should include tokenised deposits and even agentic commerce with a view to the infrastructure for payment systems that joins a variety of money, both regulated and digital, together.

Much of the attention has centered on the $3.3 billion in tokenized equities now onchain, according to RWA.xyz, but one of the biggest innovations may be what happens before Wall Street opens and after it closes.According to the latest industry data, more than 70% of tokenized stock trading volume on BNB Chain now occurs outside regular US market hours, with similar patterns emerging on Solana and Base.Tokenized equities allow investors to trade US stocks across time zones without waiting for Wall Street’s opening bell, potentially changing how liquidity is distributed throughout the day.Read more]]></description><link>https://coinsnews.com/crypto-biz-wall-street-closes-at-4-tokenized-stocks-keep-trading</link><guid>902292</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content >https://s3-images.ctmedia.io/media/article-covers/2026/10/01M52N5E63563HHENSDSV1NCN7/hi-how-grayscale-brought-crypto-staking-to-wall-street-for-the-first-time.jpg</dc:content ><dc:text>Crypto Biz: Wall Street closes at 4.

RLUSD integration is being made by Cross River into the core banking infrastructure of the XRP Ledger.
Fintechs will be able to connect to RLUSD, ACH, wires and real-time payments via a single API.
RLUSD is now over $2.5 billion in market cap with over $1B in tokens issued on XRPL.

Ripple is introducing RLUSD to the regulated dos and don&#8217;ts of U.S. banking with an integration to Cross River Bank.
The partnership connects Ripple’s dollar-backed stablecoin and the XRP Ledger with Cross River’s proprietary Core Operating System, giving fintech companies another way to move between traditional dollars and blockchain-based payments.
RLUSD payments are becoming part of the banking infrastructure fintechs already use.
We’re partnering with @CrossRiverBank to integrate RLUSD on the XRP Ledger into its core banking platform, providing 24/7 settlement within payment networks and greater flexibility to settle intraday.

Cross River Adds RLUSD to Its Core Banking Infrastructure
Cross River will embed RLUSD as another payment channel on their banking platform, inherent with transactions taking place on the XRP ledger. The aim is to enable businesses to settle blockchain without having to construct and maintain their very own blockchain infrastructure.
With one API connection, fintechs can easily pivot between USD and RLUSD, support cross-border transfers and treasury payments, and still utilize traditional rails like ACH, wire transfer and real-time payment services.
Basic integration will decrease the number of businesses needing separate providers when transferring funds across borders, Cross River said.

XRPL Settlement Takes 3 &#8211; 5 Seconds
The XRP Ledger serves as the settlement layer for the integration. Cross River claims that the transaction can settle in about 3-5 seconds, with a cost of just a few cents and it can run around the clock. To date the network has been processing over $1.3 trillion of settlement value.
This provides greater flexibility for the issuers and acquirers to complete payments throughout the day rather than waiting for standard banking procedures at cut off time.
A model that could also enable funds to pass outside of the normal business hours for the treasury team without interrupting bank payment services.
RLUSD Market Cap Surpasses $2.5 Billion
The collaboration is coming at a time when Ripple&#8217;s stablecoin is rapidly expanding. The market capitalization of the company, RLUSD, stands at more than $2.5 billion, with more than $1 billion directly on the XRP Ledger, Cross River said.
Instead of creating its own ecosystem, Ripple wants to integrate the stablecoin with infrastructure used by banks and fintech companies. That strategy is reflected in the Cross River setup: RLUSD sits alongside conventional dollar payment rails instead of replacing them entirely.

Ripple Expands Institutional Stablecoin Access
Ripple has been gradually shifting its focus to the financial institutions, which are regulated.
It now has more than 85 licenses worldwide to supply products that include payments, custody, treasury management and other institutional services.
The integration opens up yet another regulated distribution channel for RLUSD and provides fintech clients with a straight path to the XRPL settlement directly through the banking ecosystem.
The service is only offered in some U.S. states and will expand to more States over time as Cross River expands access.

HYPE recovered to $81.88 after falling to approximately $77.59 following hotter-than-expected US producer inflation.
Ripple Prime introduced institutional RWA perpetual swaps referencing more than 100 Trade.xyz markets on Hyperliquid.
HYPE faces resistance at $83.10, while support lies around $76.30&amp;-$75.70.
HYPE recovers after inflation-driven selloff
Hyperliquid&rsquo;s HYPE token rebounded toward $82 on Friday, recovering from an intraday decline as new institutional trading initiatives drew attention to the platform.
HYPE traded at approximately $81.88 at the time of this report, up 0.8% over the previous 24 hours. Earlier, the token fell to around $77.59 after a stronger-than-expected US inflation reading.
September&rsquo;s Producer Price Index rose 6.3% year over year, exceeding expectations of 5.3%. The surprise renewed concerns about the Federal Reserve&rsquo;s interest rate outlook and weighed on risk-sensitive assets.
Leveraged bullish positions absorbed most of HYPE&rsquo;s liquidation losses. CoinGlass data showed approximately $7 million in long liquidations, compared with $810,000 in short positions.
Although the rebound restored HYPE above $80, the token remained below important short-term moving averages.
Ripple announced Thursday that Ripple Prime had introduced real-world asset perpetual swaps covering more than 100 reference markets.
The products span equities, equity indices, exchange-traded funds, metals, energy and foreign exchange. Trading and settlement are available around the clock, including weekends.
The swaps reference Trade.xyz perpetual futures listed on Hyperliquid. Ripple Prime acts as the principal counterparty, giving institutional clients access through its brokerage services rather than requiring them to trade directly on the decentralized platform.
The offering expands the connection between institutional brokerage services and Hyperliquid&rsquo;s derivatives infrastructure. However, the launch does not establish a direct or immediate increase in demand for HYPE itself.
RLUSD collateral and cross-margining support the offering
Eligible clients can use Ripple&rsquo;s RLUSD stablecoin as collateral for the new swaps. Ripple Prime also supports cross-margining across eligible asset classes, allowing institutions to manage collateral requirements and portfolio risk across multiple positions.&amp;
Offsetting exposures may reduce margin requirements, depending on the portfolio and applicable rules.
Market maker Virtu is among the institutions already using the products, according to Ripple.
The service is currently offered through Ripple Prime&rsquo;s CIV BVI license. Ripple plans to expand availability to additional regions but has not provided a timetable.
Separately, EQX Labs announced plans to introduce 11 tokenized US equity and ETF markets on Hyperliquid&rsquo;s HyperCore infrastructure.
The proposed lineup includes exposure to Apple, Nvidia, Amazon and Tesla, alongside ETFs tracking major US markets.
According to EQX, the tokens will trade on Hyperliquid&rsquo;s public order book and will each be backed by shares held in custody.
These planned products differ from the perpetual derivatives Ripple Prime referenced. Together, the initiatives point to a broader range of traditional-market exposures being developed around Hyperliquid.
HYPE faces resistance at the 50-Day EMA
HYPE&rsquo;s daily chart retains a slightly bearish tone despite the rebound. The token remains above its 100-day Exponential Moving Average at $76.30 but below the 50-day EMA at $83.10 and the 20-day EMA at $85.40.
That positioning suggests longer-term support remains intact while short-term recovery attempts face overhead resistance.
The Relative Strength Index stands near 43, below its neutral midpoint. Meanwhile, the Stochastic Oscillator is around 20, indicating weak momentum near oversold territory without confirming a reversal.
Initial resistance sits at $83.10. Above that, the horizontal barrier at $85 and the 20-day EMA at $85.40 form the next resistance area. A sustained recovery through those levels would bring $97.80 into focus.
On the downside, the 100-day EMA at $76.30 and horizontal support at $75.70 form an important defensive zone. Losing that area could expose successive support levels at $67.60, $61.10 and $51.50.

Ethereum recovered above $2,400 after briefly falling toward $2,340 following hotter-than-expected US producer inflation.
September PPI rose 6.3% annually, while core PPI reached 5%, both exceeding forecasts.
Support stands near $2,355, while resistance between $2,496 and $2,552 could challenge the recovery.
Ethereum rebounds after producer inflation surprise
Ethereum recovered above $2,400 on Friday after a stronger-than-expected US wholesale inflation report briefly pushed the cryptocurrency toward $2,340.
September&rsquo;s Producer Price Index increased 1.3% month-over-month and 6.3% annually, exceeding forecasts of 0.5% and 5.3%, respectively.
Core PPI, which excludes food and energy prices, also surpassed expectations. It rose 0.7% monthly and 5% annually, compared with forecasts of 0.3% and 4.4%.
The figures followed Wednesday&rsquo;s hotter-than-expected Consumer Price Index release, adding to concerns about persistent inflation and the outlook for monetary policy.
Ethereum initially declined alongside other risk assets before recovering as Treasury yields and the dollar retreated.
The concentration of losses among bullish traders highlights the pressure on leveraged positions during the decline. Forced position closures can intensify selling as falling prices erode traders&rsquo; collateral.
The figures cover the full 24-hour period, including the volatility surrounding the inflation releases, rather than only the immediate response to Thursday&rsquo;s PPI data.
Ethereum&rsquo;s rebound accompanied a decline in US 10-year Treasury yields to 5.095%, their lowest level since September 22.
Lower yields helped ease one source of pressure on Ethereum following the earlier inflation-driven rise in borrowing-cost expectations.
The US Dollar Index also reversed its post-CPI gains, falling to approximately 102.04 at the time of writing.
Together, the retreat in yields and the dollar provided a more supportive backdrop for the broader cryptocurrency recovery, even as inflation concerns remained unresolved.
Ethereum defends $2,355 support but faces resistance
On the daily chart, Ethereum recovered from the area around its 100-day Exponential Moving Average at $2,356 and horizontal support at $2,355, following its brief dip beneath that zone.
Buyers are now attempting to maintain the recovery above $2,411. Momentum indicators show some improvement.&amp;
The Relative Strength Index edged up to 40.9, while the Stochastic Oscillator stood near 25. Both suggest that immediate bearish pressure has eased, although they do not establish a confirmed trend reversal.
The first upside obstacle is the 50-day EMA at $2,496. Beyond that, horizontal resistance at $2,548 and the 20-day EMA at $2,552 form a closely grouped barrier.
Reclaiming those levels would strengthen the short-term recovery outlook. On the downside, the 2,355&amp;-2,356 area remains important. A daily close below it could expose support at $2,204, followed by $1,971 and $1,827 if selling continues.

After failing to obtain testnet ETH through faucets, the model derived accounts from publicly known developer recovery phrases, checked 362 wallet addresses and selected one with enough funds to proceed.&amp; In its recorded reasoning, the model asked, “But using public known key/funds ethically?” It then argued that the funds were “effectively abandoned/test ETH” and that Sepolia ETH had no value, before using the wallet’s private key to sign and broadcast a deployment transaction.

An apparent wave of bans that has prompted backlash from members of the decentralized social network.&amp; Network School on Thursday announced it has acquired Farcaster from Neynar, rebranding it as the Network State Protocol. The same day, several users said on X that their Farcaster accounts had been restricted to “read-only,” as a result of previous posts that broke its new rules.&amp; “I know most of these folks.

Bitcoin and Ether ETFs launch trading in Thailand and South Korea blocks 27 exchanges.Ledger was forced to suspend its reseller network across South East Asia this week, after thieves stole more than $103.4 million from 530 addresses via tampered Ledgers inserted into the supply chain. But in a small measure of poetic justice, one of the “victims” was a scammer themselves according to Chainalysis. The blockchain monitoring firm reports that the scammer lost 60 Bitcoin, worth about $4.8 million, from three newly purchased Ledgers containing spyware that records seed phrases. The Ledger thieves drained all three of their funds into the same wallet. In a further irony, the scammer had operated a “task scam” where people were paid to fake sales and reviews of real items. So depending on how much they knew, their victims in turn may not have been entirely honest either. “Then a ‘negative balance’ appeared, and they were told to add their own money in order to get paid,” Chainalysis reports. So it’s possible that a scammer of scammers has just got scammed. In crypto it’s sometimes turtles all the way down.

Underpinned by $6 billion in two-way conversions with underlying shares, the product reflects growing appetite to deploy conventional equity holdings across blockchain ecosystem.Since the June 11 launch, bStocks have generated more than $40 billion in cumulative trading volume, according to Binance’s announcement. The range has grown from five securities to almost 100 stocks and ETFs.bStocks AUM: $1,000,000,000+ ✔️
With 1:1 convertibility and zero conversion fees, users have converted over $6B between bStocks and underlying stocks.
The momentum goes beyond holding. Users are converting, trading, and building with tokenized stocks. https://t.co/Nmzou8tKzq— Binance (@binance) October 15, 2026How Shares Move On-Chain Binance began offering eligible clients direct access to more than 7,000 US stocks and ETFs in early June. The service is provided by ADGM-regulated broker-dealer Nest Trading Limited, with clients holding a beneficial interest in the shares they buy. bStocks add a second format for selected securities. A client can convert a conventional stock position into a corresponding token at a 1:1 ratio without a conversion fee, then convert it back into a direct stock position. Each bStock is issued by Binance affiliate BTech Holdings and backed by the relevant security held with a custodian. Under the product’s terms, the token is a certificate representing an interest in that security, not direct ownership of the share.What Clients Do with the Token Once converted, bStocks can trade around the clock and be withdrawn to a compatible BNB Smart Chain wallet. Clients can move equity-linked exposure into self-custody or use supported tokens in decentralised finance without first selling the position for cash or cryptocurrency. The platform added another use in September, when it extended collateral support for selected bStocks to eligible users of its Cross Margin and Portfolio Margin accounts. Clients can keep equity-linked exposure while using those tokens to support other trading positions, rather than selling them to free up collateral.Binance’s usage figures indicate that trading outside conventional market hours is part of the appeal. Only 38% of bStocks volume in July occurred during regular US equity trading hours. Binance Research found that 41.5% of early bStocks users had not traded its related direct-equity or perpetual products. However, the figure describes their activity on Binance and does not establish whether they had invested in shares elsewhere. How the Milestone Compares Binance calls bStocks the fastest tokenised equity product to reach $1 billion in assets, citing Dune data as of October 15. The claim concerns the time taken to reach that threshold, not leadership by assets held today. On October 14, Ondo Finance said its tokenised stocks and ETFs accounted for more than $1.3 billion in total value locked. Ondo reports that measure as TVL, while Binance calls its figure AUM, so the amounts are not a precise like-for-like ranking.A new milestone for Ondo: $4 billion in TVL.
From tokenized Treasuries to tokenized stocks, ETFs, portfolios &amp; private markets, Ondo is expanding access with every asset class.
Behind the $4 billion TVL milestone:
→ $1.3B+ in tokenized stocks &amp; ETFs
→ #1 platform for tokenized U.S. Treasuries
→ 1M+ cumulative holders across products
That growth reflects innovations in how tokenized assets trade, including Ondo Stocks tapping TradFi exchange liquidity through RFQ.
Leading wallets and apps put that liquidity within reach, enabling permissionless transfers across Solana, Ethereum and BNB Chain.
This milestone is an early sign of the scale ahead as tokenization transforms how the world accesses financial markets.
Think in trillions.— Ondo Finance (@Ondo) October 14, 2026Ondo’s broader $4 billion TVL includes other products and should not be compared with bStocks alone. Rapid growth also does not make token trading equivalent to trading the underlying shares. The IMF’s October report found that tokenised equity markets offer access outside conventional hours but remain less liquid and more volatile than traditional counterparts. That distinction matters most when clients trade bStocks while the shares backing them are not trading on the US market.

The underlying contracts trade on Hyperliquid, but clients enter the swaps with Ripple Prime as their counterparty and can manage them alongside other positions held through the prime broker.London's trading industry is coming home!The launch comes as perpetual contracts tied to stocks, commodities and other traditional assets attract more trading activity. Open interest across several major venues has risen from almost nothing to about $9 billion over the past year, Bloomberg reported. In February 2025, Ripple acquired multi-asset prime broker Hidden Road and renamed it Rpple Prime. The acquisition gave it access to Hyperliquid for on-chain derivatives, while the new product extends that connection to markets referencing traditional assets. What Institutions Actually TradeInstitutions do not trade the Trade.xyz futures directly through this service. Instead, they enter swaps with Ripple Prime, which acts as their counterparty. The swaps follow perpetual futures listed by Trade.xyz on Hyperliquid, giving clients exposure to movements in traditional assets without ownership of those assets. That exposure can be managed outside conventional market hours because the referenced futures trade around the clock. And since they have no fixed expiry, a desk can maintain a position without rolling it into a new contract.Michael Higgins, Ripple Prime’s international CEO, told Bloomberg that some clients pair a perpetual position with the underlying asset to trade the price difference, while others take a directional view, including outside regular market hours.Collateral Is Part of the Offer Access to a 24/7 market is only one part of the proposition. Ripple Prime says clients can cross-margin the new swaps against other supported positions. An institution trading across several asset classes may therefore be able to manage its collateral within an existing prime-brokerage relationship instead of maintaining separate pools for each venue. Clients can also use Ripple’s RLUSD stablecoin as collateral where it is available. Virtu Financial is already trading the swaps; its digital-assets business development head, Scotte Moegling, said round-the-clock cross-margining helps the firm expand its activity in emerging liquidity pools. Other firms are bringing traditional-asset perpetuals to market through their own exchanges. Deribit, for example, is rolling out more than 90 USDC-settled contracts spanning crypto and traditional assets. Ripple Prime’s role is different: instead of listing the referenced futures, it offers institutions a swap and collateral relationship around markets operated by Trade.xyz. For now, the swaps are available through Ripple Prime’s BVI-licensed business. Ripple plans to offer them from additional regions but has not announced where or when.

The future of money</title><description><![CDATA[
Stablecoins could reshape payments and compete with banks without replacing their broader financial services.
Research highlights potential effects on bank deposits, lending, liquidity, and demand for US Treasury securities.
By 2030, banks and stablecoin issuers may increasingly integrate blockchain technology and traditional financial infrastructure.
The global banking system is facing an unusual challenge. For centuries, banks have played a central role in storing money, processing payments, and providing credit.
Today, a new generation of digital financial instruments is beginning to challenge parts of that model.
Stablecoins, which are designed to maintain a relatively constant value against traditional currencies, allow people and businesses to transfer money through blockchain networks.
Their development raises an important question: could the financial system eventually operate without the traditional bank accounts and payment infrastructure that most people use today?
For investors and readers following the transformation of global finance, understanding the difference between digital money and conventional banking is becoming increasingly important.
Financial news platforms such as the Coinspot site help audiences follow developments in digital assets, payment technology, and the changing financial landscape.
Yet the most consequential aspect of stablecoin adoption may not be the technology itself.
It may be the possibility that money could move through new networks while banks gradually lose their exclusive position as the primary gateway to financial services.
The banking monopoly that was never quite a monopoly
Banks have traditionally performed several important economic functions.
They provide accounts where households and businesses can hold money.
They process payments, manage financial records, and extend credit to borrowers.
These activities are closely connected, but they are not identical.
A customer may use a bank account primarily to receive wages and pay bills. Another customer may depend on the same institution for a mortgage or business loan.
Stablecoins challenge the payment and money-holding components of this arrangement.
They do not automatically replace the credit creation, financial analysis, and regulatory responsibilities performed by banks.
This distinction is essential.
A technology that makes money transfers faster does not necessarily create a complete alternative banking system.
The future may involve greater competition in selected services rather than the disappearance of traditional financial institutions.
What makes a stablecoin different from money in a bank account?
A dollar-backed stablecoin is generally designed to maintain a value close to one US dollar.
Its issuer may hold reserves intended to support redemption, depending on the product&rsquo;s structure and applicable regulations.
A bank deposit represents a claim against a regulated financial institution.
These arrangements may appear similar from the customer&rsquo;s perspective, but their legal and economic foundations are different.
Bank deposits can be protected by deposit insurance within applicable limits and jurisdictions.
Stablecoins do not automatically provide equivalent protection.
Banks also participate in payment and settlement systems supported by central banks.
Stablecoin transfers can occur on blockchain networks, where the reliability of settlement depends on the underlying technology and financial arrangements.

Main Risks

Reserve, issuer, redemption, custody, and technical risks
The comparison reveals why stablecoins may compete with bank accounts without providing all the same financial protections.
The $300 billion experiment in digital money
Stablecoins have expanded significantly over recent years.
According to the International Monetary Fund, their combined market capitalization stood at approximately $300 billion in August 2026.
This represents meaningful growth, but it remains relatively small compared with the conventional banking system.
The Bank for International Settlements reported that the global stablecoin market was worth approximately $315 billion in early April 2026.
For comparison, U.S. bank deposits alone amounted to roughly $8 trillion in the BIS comparison.
The difference in scale is substantial.
However, financial innovation does not always begin by replacing an entire established market.
New technologies often gain adoption in specialized activities before expanding into broader commercial use.
Stablecoins have already become important instruments for transactions within digital asset markets.
The next question is whether their role in ordinary economic payments will grow sufficiently to challenge traditional financial institutions.
The payments battle could be decided before the banking battle
Payments are the most immediate area of competition.
Traditional financial institutions operate through complex networks that connect banks, payment processors, clearing systems, and currency conversion providers.
These arrangements support enormous transaction volumes.
However, international payments can still involve delays and substantial fees.
Stablecoins provide an alternative method of transferring value.
A transaction can be recorded on a blockchain without passing through every intermediary involved in a conventional cross-border bank transfer.
This may reduce friction in certain payment arrangements.
Yet the benefits depend on the complete process.
Users often need to convert conventional money into stablecoins before sending funds.
Recipients may then need to convert those tokens into local currency.
The conversion process can introduce fees, delays, and additional financial risks.
The future of payments will not be decided by which system moves digital tokens fastest.
It will be decided by which system delivers money reliably, affordably, and safely to the people who need it.
The most successful payment solutions may combine blockchain settlement with familiar financial services.
Why stablecoin transaction volumes can be misleading
Stablecoin transaction statistics frequently attract attention because they involve enormous numbers.
Some estimates suggest that total stablecoin transfers exceeded $30 trillion during 2025.
However, not every blockchain transfer represents an economic payment.
Funds may move between trading platforms, institutional accounts, and automated financial applications.
Some transactions involve internal treasury management or speculative trading.
The BIS estimated that payment-related stablecoin flows amounted to approximately $390 billion in 2025.
This is considerably smaller than the headline figure for total transfers.
The distinction matters when evaluating the possibility of stablecoins replacing banking services.
A technology can process substantial financial activity without becoming a widely used payment method for households and businesses.

Scale of conventional banking
The figures show both the sector&rsquo;s progress and the distance it must travel before becoming a mainstream alternative to banking.
The deposit problem banks are beginning to study
Banks rely on deposits as an important source of funding.
Customer balances help support lending and other financial activities.
If substantial amounts of money move from bank deposits into stablecoins, the composition of bank funding could change.
A customer holding digital dollars outside a conventional bank account may no longer provide the same funding to that institution.
At the same time, stablecoin issuers often maintain reserve assets through banks and government securities markets.
Some money may therefore return to the banking system in a different form.
However, the economic effects are not necessarily neutral.
Research published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in 2026 examined how stablecoin activity can influence banking liquidity and lending.
The researchers found evidence that banks exposed to stablecoin-related deposits face additional liquidity demands.
Their analysis also indicated that these banks may hold more reserves and maintain smaller loan portfolios relative to comparable institutions.
This suggests that stablecoin growth could influence the banking system even without directly replacing it.
Could stablecoins make mortgages more expensive?
The connection between stablecoins and mortgages may seem indirect.
However, bank funding conditions influence the availability and cost of credit.
If stablecoins attract substantial deposits away from banks, some financial institutions may need to obtain funding from more expensive sources.
Higher funding costs can affect lending decisions.
Banks may respond by increasing loan rates, reducing credit availability, or changing their balance sheet strategies.
The European Central Bank has examined the potential effects of stablecoin adoption on monetary policy transmission and bank lending.
Its research suggests that large-scale substitution of bank deposits could weaken lending to businesses in economies where banks remain the dominant source of credit.
However, these effects depend on the scale of adoption and the structure of the financial system.
Countries with developed capital markets may be able to absorb some changes more easily.
The important point is that replacing bank deposits with stablecoins could have consequences beyond payment convenience.
It may also change how credit reaches households and businesses.
The treasury market connection nobody expected
Major dollar-backed stablecoin issuers often hold substantial reserves in short-term US government securities and other liquid financial instruments.
These assets are intended to support the value and redemption of outstanding tokens.
As stablecoin circulation increases, demand for reserve assets may also grow.
This creates a connection between blockchain-based money and government debt markets.
The IMF has highlighted the increasing importance of stablecoin issuers as investors in US Treasury bills.
In principle, additional demand for short-term government securities could influence borrowing costs.
However, the relationship also creates financial stability concerns.
If large numbers of stablecoin holders request redemption simultaneously, issuers may need to sell reserve assets.
Under stressed conditions, those sales could affect market liquidity.
Stablecoins therefore do not operate entirely outside conventional finance.
Their financial foundations often depend on the same government securities and banking relationships that support traditional monetary systems.
What happens when everyone wants their dollars back?
A stablecoin is designed to maintain a stable value, but that stability depends on confidence.
Users must believe that the issuer can meet redemption obligations.
They must also trust the quality and accessibility of reserve assets.
If confidence weakens, holders may attempt to redeem or sell their tokens.
A large wave of selling can cause the market price to move below its intended value.
The IMF&rsquo;s 2026 research on stablecoin stability emphasized the importance of reserve quality and appropriate financial safeguards.
The problem resembles certain forms of liquidity stress experienced by conventional financial institutions.
Even assets that are considered relatively safe can become difficult or expensive to liquidate during market disruptions.
The four layers of stablecoin risk
Reserve risk: The backing assets may lose value or become difficult to sell.
Redemption risk: Users may face delays, restrictions, or limited direct access to the issuer.
Operational risk: Custodians, payment providers, or technical systems may experience failures.
Market confidence risk: A loss of trust may cause the token&rsquo;s trading price to deviate from its target.
These risks are especially important for users who treat stablecoins as equivalent to insured bank deposits.
They are not necessarily interchangeable.
The Hidden Advantage Banks Still Possess
Stablecoins can provide efficient transfers, but banks offer a broader range of financial services.
They assess borrowers, provide credit, manage customer relationships, and operate within established legal frameworks.
They also provide services that consumers may take for granted.
A customer can dispute certain unauthorized transactions.
Businesses can obtain financing based on cash flow and financial history.
Households can access mortgages, savings products, and other regulated services.
Stablecoin networks do not automatically reproduce these functions.
Blockchain transactions can also be difficult to reverse.
This creates challenges when users send funds to incorrect addresses or become victims of fraud.
Services that stablecoins cannot automatically replace
Credit underwriting: Evaluating whether individuals and businesses can repay loans.
Deposit protection: Providing legally established safeguards for eligible customer balances.
Consumer dispute resolution: Investigating and resolving certain payment problems.
Financial advice: Supporting savings, investment, and retirement planning decisions.
Business financing: Providing working capital and longer-term credit facilities.
Regulatory compliance: Monitoring transactions and meeting legal obligations.
Emergency liquidity: Accessing established financial support arrangements under applicable rules.
Stablecoins may improve certain services, but replacing the complete banking model would require much more than faster payments.
The Rise of Banks That Use Blockchain Instead of Fighting It
Traditional banks are increasingly exploring tokenized forms of money.
Tokenized deposits represent bank liabilities recorded through blockchain-based or related distributed ledger infrastructure.
They can provide some of the technological features associated with stablecoins while remaining connected to regulated banking relationships.
This creates an alternative path for financial innovation.
Rather than losing customers to independent stablecoin issuers, banks may develop digital settlement systems of their own.
The IMF&rsquo;s May 2026 analysis of tokenized finance highlighted the potential for tokenized deposits to support payments, settlement, and liquidity management.
Such systems may allow financial institutions to automate selected transactions and maintain synchronized financial records.
However, tokenized deposits also introduce new operational requirements.
Continuous settlement may increase the need for real-time liquidity management.
Financial institutions must also manage cybersecurity, governance, and system reliability.
The result could be a banking industry that adopts blockchain technology rather than being displaced by it.
The regulatory contest between the United States and Europe
Stablecoin regulation is becoming a major factor in the future of digital money.
The United States and European Union have developed different approaches.
The US GENIUS Act focuses on payment stablecoins, including requirements involving issuance, reserve backing, and supervision.
The European Union&rsquo;s Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation establishes a broader framework covering several categories of digital assets and related service providers.
A July 2026 European Parliament briefing compared these approaches and highlighted differences in how they connect stablecoin activities with existing financial law.
The regulatory direction matters because financial institutions need clarity before adopting new payment systems.
Rules can influence which companies are allowed to issue stablecoins, what assets can support them, and how customers can redeem their holdings.
How regulation could shape the market
Regulatory Issue
Why It Matters
Reserve Requirements
Influences the quality of assets supporting stablecoins
Redemption Rights
Determines how holders can exchange tokens for conventional money
Issuer Supervision
Establishes accountability and oversight
Customer Identification
Supports compliance with financial crime rules
Operational Resilience
Addresses technical failures and service disruptions
Cross-Border Coordination
Helps manage international transactions
Consumer Protection
Clarifies rights and remedies for users
Clearer rules could encourage adoption.
However, regulatory compliance may also increase operating costs and limit certain business models.
The digital dollar could become more global than the physical dollar
Dollar-denominated stablecoins dominate the current market.
This reflects the US dollar&rsquo;s established role in international trade, finance, and savings.
Digital dollar tokens may make dollar exposure more accessible to people outside the United States.
In some countries, residents face restrictions or high costs when opening conventional dollar accounts.
Stablecoins can offer another method of holding dollar-denominated value.
This may be attractive in economies experiencing high inflation or currency instability.
However, widespread adoption could weaken demand for local currencies.
The Bank for International Settlements warned in 2026 that stablecoins could accelerate digital dollarization in emerging economies.
If businesses and households increasingly use dollar-backed tokens for savings and payments, domestic monetary authorities may face additional challenges.
This creates a difficult policy balance.
Stablecoins may improve access to financial services while reducing the effectiveness of national monetary policy.
Can stablecoins reduce the cost of sending money abroad?
International remittances are one of the most frequently discussed applications.
Workers sending money to relatives abroad may encounter substantial fees and exchange rate spreads.
Traditional remittance providers operate through networks of banks, agents, and local payment systems.
Stablecoins could simplify selected stages of this process.
A sender may purchase digital dollars and transfer them through a blockchain network.
The recipient can then convert the tokens into local currency.
However, the complete transaction may still involve conversion fees and financial intermediaries.
The IMF reported in August 2026 that the average global remittance cost was approximately 6.5%.
It also noted that the cost of sending $200 through stablecoin-based arrangements can vary substantially between payment corridors.
This means stablecoins may offer savings in some circumstances without being universally cheaper.
What determines the real cost of a stablecoin payment?
The cost of purchasing stablecoins.
Blockchain transaction fees.
Wallet or payment provider charges.
Currency conversion spreads.
Local withdrawal fees.
Compliance and identity verification requirements.
The availability of reliable financial services in the recipient&rsquo;s country.
The total cost matters more than the fee displayed by the blockchain network.
Why businesses may adopt stablecoins before consumers
Businesses engaged in international trade have practical reasons to improve settlement efficiency.
Cross-border payments can involve delays, currency conversion, and administrative costs.
A company may need to transfer money between subsidiaries or pay suppliers operating in different countries.
Stablecoins could support continuous settlement between compatible financial platforms.
This may improve certain treasury operations.
However, corporate adoption requires dependable accounting, compliance, and liquidity management.
Businesses must also understand the legal treatment of digital assets in relevant jurisdictions.
A financial system that provides rapid transfers but introduces uncertainty about ownership or redemption may not be attractive.
For this reason, enterprise adoption may favor regulated providers and integrated financial services.
The most successful solutions could operate largely behind the scenes.
Customers might use familiar payment interfaces while blockchain networks handle selected settlement functions.
The competition for the financial app of the future
The next generation of financial applications may combine traditional banking services with digital payment infrastructure.
A customer could potentially hold conventional deposits, access investment products, and transfer stablecoins through one interface.
Financial technology companies may compete with banks by offering more flexible international services.
Banks may respond by integrating similar capabilities into their own platforms.
Payment companies could also develop hybrid systems that connect conventional accounts with blockchain settlement networks.
This competition may improve financial services even if stablecoins never replace traditional banking.
Lower fees, better international transfers, and more convenient account management could become competitive priorities.
The ultimate winners may be companies that simplify the user experience rather than those that promote the most complex technology.
Three futures for Money by 2030
The future relationship between stablecoins and banks remains uncertain.
Several plausible outcomes deserve consideration.
Scenario one: stablecoins remain specialized payment instruments
Stablecoins continue serving digital asset markets and selected international payment activities.
Traditional banks retain their dominant role in deposits, lending, and everyday financial services.
Adoption grows, but stablecoins remain relatively small compared with the broader monetary system.
Scenario two: banks and stablecoins become integrated
Banks, payment companies, and stablecoin issuers develop connected financial infrastructure.
Customers gain access to faster international transfers while maintaining relationships with regulated institutions.
Tokenized deposits and stablecoins coexist.
This scenario could produce substantial innovation without replacing traditional banking.
Scenario three: digital money reshapes bank funding
Stablecoin adoption becomes large enough to influence household deposits and business treasury balances.
Banks face greater competition for funding.
Some lending activities migrate toward alternative financial institutions.
Regulators respond with new safeguards intended to preserve financial stability.
This outcome could transform banking economics, but it would also introduce significant policy challenges.
The financial institutions most exposed to disruption
Not every banking activity faces the same level of competition.
Payment services may be more directly affected than relationship-based lending.
Banks that depend heavily on international transfer fees could encounter competitive pressure.
Financial institutions with strong lending businesses and established customer relationships may be better positioned to adapt.
Payment companies may also experience changes in their business models.
A March 2026 IMF working paper examined stock market reactions to U.S. legislation supporting stablecoin payments.
The researchers estimated a negative valuation effect on established payment companies, with particularly strong reactions among businesses focused on cross-border payments.
This suggests that investors see stablecoins as a potentially meaningful competitive force.
However, market reactions are not proof that the expected disruption will occur.
Established companies may adapt by developing new services or integrating blockchain-based settlement.
The consumer protection test that could decide everything
Technology adoption depends heavily on trust.
Consumers need confidence that their money will remain accessible and that financial service providers will respond appropriately when problems occur.
Traditional banking systems have developed legal and operational protections over many decades.
Stablecoin services must address similar expectations.
Users may lose access to digital assets through compromised credentials, fraudulent transactions, or service provider failures.
A technically successful blockchain transfer does not guarantee that the intended recipient receives usable funds.
The quality of customer support, dispute handling, and financial safeguards will therefore influence mainstream adoption.
People do not adopt a payment system because its technology is impressive. They adopt it because it makes everyday financial activity easier without creating unacceptable risks.
The most important competition may be over consumer confidence rather than transaction speed.
The questions every stablecoin user should ask
Before treating a stablecoin as a substitute for money held in a bank account, users should understand the product&rsquo;s financial structure.
A Practical Evaluation Checklist
Who issues the stablecoin? Identify the legal entity responsible for the token.
What assets support its value? Review the reserve structure and available disclosures.
Who can redeem directly? Some issuers restrict direct redemption to approved participants.
What happens during market stress? Consider whether redemption could become delayed or restricted.
Which financial protections apply? Do not assume deposit insurance is available.
How are assets stored? Understand custody arrangements and wallet security.
What are the complete transaction costs? Include conversion and withdrawal expenses.
Which laws apply? Regulatory protections and restrictions vary by jurisdiction.
These questions are particularly important when stablecoins are used for savings or substantial business transactions.
Why the end of banking is probably the wrong prediction
The idea that stablecoins will replace banks entirely overlooks the broader role of financial institutions.
Banks do much more than move money.
They provide credit, manage financial risks, support businesses, and operate within monetary systems backed by central banks.
Stablecoins can challenge certain payment and deposit functions.
However, they do not automatically reproduce the institutional arrangements required for large-scale credit creation and financial stability.
The more plausible transformation may involve competition and integration.
Stablecoin issuers could provide new payment infrastructure.
Banks may develop tokenized deposits and blockchain-based settlement services.
Financial technology companies may connect the two systems through consumer and business applications.
The result could be a financial landscape with more choices rather than one in which every conventional institution disappears.
The future of money may be a hybrid system
Stablecoins have introduced an important new possibility into global finance.
Money can be represented by transferable digital tokens and moved through networks that operate continuously.
This creates opportunities to improve selected payment processes and develop new financial applications.
However, the technology also raises questions about reserves, redemption, banking liquidity, consumer protection, and monetary sovereignty.
Traditional financial institutions retain advantages involving credit provision, regulation, and established customer relationships.
The next stage of financial development may therefore involve a combination of banking infrastructure and blockchain-based settlement.
Stablecoins are unlikely to replace traditional banking completely by 2030.
Their more realistic impact may be to force banks, payment companies, and financial regulators to redesign how money moves through the global economy, that what&rsquo;s stated on Coinspot.Io.
If that happens, the future of money will not be defined by the disappearance of banks.
It will be defined by a financial system in which digital currencies and traditional institutions compete, cooperate, and gradually establish new standards for moving and managing value.

XDC Network selects Concordium to verify owners of AI agents.
Verified agents receive on-chain badges while personal data stays private.
The partnership includes revenue sharing and sponsored network fees.
XDC Network has selected Concordium as the exclusive identity verification provider for XDC AI, its agent payments marketplace, in a move aimed at improving accountability for artificial intelligence agents conducting financial transactions.
Announced on October 14, 2026, the integration allows AI agents on XDC AI to receive an on-chain verification badge confirming that a verified individual or business stands behind them, without publicly revealing the owner&rsquo;s identity.
XDC Network is a Layer-1 blockchain focused on payments, trade finance, and real-world assets.
XDC AI, launched in July 2026, enables AI agents to use non-custodial wallets to discover and pay for services in USDC through the x402 payment standard.
The integration adds an identity verification mechanism intended to help businesses and institutions establish who is accountable for an agent before allowing it to conduct transactions.
Concordium introduces verified ownership for AI agents
Under the new system, agent owners can complete identity verification through the Concordium Wallet.
The process involves submitting a passport and completing a liveness check conducted by an independent identity provider.
Owners then link their XDC wallets using two signatures that do not transfer funds and register their agents.
Concordium subsequently issues a publicly verifiable badge, while personal information remains off-chain.
According to the announcement, identity disclosure requires a court order and joint action by independent Privacy Guardians.
Atul Khekade, co-founder of XDC Network, said the integration addresses the need for institutions to identify who stands behind an AI agent before trusting it with financial transactions.
He added that the verification system allows developers to establish accountability without placing personal information on the blockchain.
Boris Bohrer-Bilowitzki, chief executive officer of Concordium, said payment capabilities alone do not establish who is responsible for an agent&rsquo;s actions.
He said the partnership combines XDC&rsquo;s transaction infrastructure with verification of the individuals or businesses behind participating agents.
XDC becomes Concordium&rsquo;s first full-network integration
Concordium already supports AI agent verification on Ethereum and Solana, with XDC becoming its first full-network integration.
The companies said agents can retain their existing XDC wallets, code, and operations while using Concordium for identity verification.
This allows the identity layer to be added without requiring agents to replace their existing wallets or operational infrastructure.
The partnership also includes revenue sharing for each agent verification. Every verified agent creates a Concordium account linked to a verified owner.
Network fees are sponsored, removing the requirement for developers to hold CCD tokens to use the verification service.
The arrangement is intended to make verification accessible to developers while providing an additional accountability mechanism for AI agents operating within the marketplace.
However, the announcement does not specify the financial terms of the revenue-sharing agreement or disclose the number of agents expected to use the service.
Verification aims to support institutional adoption
The integration comes as AI agents gain capabilities to discover services and conduct transactions with limited direct human involvement.
In such settings, identifying the individual or business responsible for an agent can be an important consideration for organisations assessing whether to grant it financial authority.
XDC Network&rsquo;s marketplace already supports agent payments in USDC.
Concordium&rsquo;s verification layer adds a way to establish a link between an agent and a verified owner while keeping that owner&rsquo;s personal information private by default.
The companies said agent verification is now available through the XDC AI website, with developer documentation provided through its technical documentation portal.
The integration expands Concordium&rsquo;s presence across blockchain networks and gives XDC AI users an additional mechanism for verifying agent ownership.
Its broader adoption will depend on how developers and institutions incorporate identity verification into their agent-based payment workflows.

Polygon acquired Coinme, which expands its payments business to include coverage in the 48 U.S. states.
Now it has 37 money transmitter licenses, 11 state exemptions and is FinCEN registered.
First companies making payments, payroll and dollar access on Polygon Open Money Stack include Tazapay, Mesh, Toku &amp; Kira.

Polygon Labs has completed its acquisition of Coinme, turning Polygon Open Money Stack into a regulated U.S. payments platform with direct links between fiat and onchain money movement.
The partnership provides Polygon with added protection and wallets, on-ramps, and cross-chain routing and settlement capabilities to shield its stablecoin payments.
Coinme Gives Polygon Coverage Across 48 US States
Coinme is Polygon&#8217;s U.S. payments service now available in 48 states, with 37 state money transmitter licenses and 11 exemptions that apply. The business is also registered as a money services business with FinCEN.
This regulatory component is being incorporated into the Polygon Open Money Stack (OMS).
It will aim to link bank accounts, cards and cash to onchain transfers, wallets and finally payouts. Businesses don&#8217;t need to stitch small transactions together from various providers; instead, they can send money into crypto rails with one stack, send money across networks, and then take it back down and make it usable as money in the real world.

Stablecoins Connect More Directly to Local Currency
Tazapay is amongst the early adopters of the OMS. It supports over 1,000 businesses and fintechs in more than 30 countries and has implemented Polygon&#8217;s on/off ramp solutions to reduce the time to market of stablecoins and local currencies.
The aim is to shorten the path for cross-border payments, without eliminating pre-existing local payment systems and SWIFT.
Mesh, Toku and Kira Expand Polygon’s Payments Footprint
Polygon OMS on-ramps will be added to the network cleared of over 300 wallets, exchanges and financial services. This integration provides alternative pathways between digital and fiat currencies without forcing companies to create numerous unique integrations.
Toku&#8217;s global payroll solutions are powered by Polygon wallets and payout systems. It handles local payroll, tax withholding and hiring compliance in over 100 countries, while also facilitating payments to employees who receive stablecoins and then use them to buy local currency.
Kira is also working to include Polygon OMS to increase the numbers of fintechs and institutional access to stablecoins. It has a platform that allows conversion to USD, ACH, Fedwire, FedNow, SWIFT and stablecoin. Kira 10 says the sign up takes only 72 hours and 9/10 payments are instant approval.
Polygon Pushes Deeper Into Stablecoin Payments
Coinme&#8217;s deal will take Polygon off the infrastructure-only business. Enabling regulated fiat entry into the application alongside on-chain settlement, wallets, and payouts, Polygon is developing one of crypto&#8217;s surging use-cases: transporting stablecoins from traditional financial systems to crypto networks.
Polygon OMS is in production now with its first customer demonstrating its ability to enable cross-border payments, account funding, payroll enrollment and access to the U.S. dollar.

Ethereum traded below $2,400, down 5.3% over 24 hours, after stronger-than-expected US inflation unsettled crypto markets.
Higher Treasury yields, a stronger dollar and rising rate hike expectations added pressure to ETH.
Key support sits around $2,353&amp;-$2,355, while resistance at $2,498 and $2,548 could challenge recovery attempts.
Ethereum retreats as inflation raises rate hike concerns
Ethereum extended its decline below $2,400 on Thursday as stronger-than-expected US inflation triggered renewed selling across cryptocurrency markets.
The second-largest cryptocurrency traded near $2,370 at the time of the report, losing approximately 5.3.% over the previous 24 hours.
September&rsquo;s Consumer Price Index rose 0.6% month-over-month, matching expectations but accelerating from August&rsquo;s 0.4% increase. Annual headline inflation reached 3.7%, above the 3.6% forecast and up from 3.4% previously.
Core inflation, which excludes food and energy prices, also exceeded expectations. The measure rose 0.3% monthly and 2.6% annually, compared with forecasts of 0.2% and 2.5%, respectively.
The figures increased concerns that persistent inflation could prompt further monetary tightening, weakening demand for risk assets.
US Treasury yields and the dollar strengthened following the inflation release, creating additional headwinds for Ethereum.
The 10-year Treasury yield climbed to 5.32% before easing toward 5.22%. Meanwhile, the US Dollar Index moved above 102.80 for the first time since April 2025, according to the report.
Higher Treasury yields increase the relative appeal of interest-bearing assets, raising the opportunity cost of holding cryptocurrencies. A stronger dollar can also weigh on dollar-denominated crypto prices.
At the same time, the probability of a Federal Reserve rate increase at its October meeting rose from 22% to 35%, based on the CME FedWatch figures cited in the source.
That repricing reinforced expectations of tighter financial conditions, leaving Ethereum vulnerable to further selling.
ETH long positions account for most liquidations
Ethereum&rsquo;s decline also forced leveraged traders out of positions. CoinGlass data shows $293.98 million in ETH liquidations over the previous 24 hours.&amp;
Long positions accounted for 90% of that total, indicating that traders positioned for higher prices absorbed most of the losses.
The latest liquidations followed Tuesday&rsquo;s volatile trading, which wiped out approximately $120 million in Ethereum longs.
Successive rounds of long liquidations highlight the pressure on bullish leveraged positions. Forced selling can amplify a price decline when falling collateral values trigger further position closures.
Onchain data suggests potential selling pressure is also building outside the derivatives market.
Ethereum&rsquo;s exchange netflow has remained positive since Sunday, continuing a pattern seen during the previous week, according to CryptoQuant data cited in the article.
Positive netflow means more ETH is entering exchanges than leaving them. Such movements can indicate that holders are preparing to sell, although deposits alone do not confirm that sales have occurred.
Combined with rising long liquidations, the trend leaves Ethereum facing pressure from both leveraged positioning and potential spot-market supply.
Ethereum faces resistance below $2,563
Ethereum&rsquo;s daily chart maintains a bearish near-term bias, with the price below its 50-day Exponential Moving Average at $2,498 and its 20-day EMA at $2,563.
The first recovery hurdle is the 50-day EMA. Above that, the horizontal resistance at $2,548 and the 20-day EMA form a further barrier to sustained gains.
A recovery through this area would bring $2,636 into focus, followed by resistance near $2,781.
Momentum remains weak. The 14-day Relative Strength Index stands around 38, while the Stochastic Oscillator is near 7, indicating oversold conditions. Those readings could support a pause or short-term rebound, but they do not confirm a downtrend reversal.
The source analysis identifies the recent close near $2,432 as an immediate reference, although ETH&rsquo;s quoted price of about $2,430 puts it marginally below that mark.
Further down, horizontal support at $2,355 closely aligns with the 100-day EMA at $2,353, creating an important support zone.
Holding that area would preserve a longer-term technical cushion despite the weak short-term outlook. A decisive break beneath it could expose the next downside levels at $2,204 and $1,971.
For now, Ethereum&rsquo;s recovery prospects depend on buyers stabilizing the price and reclaiming overhead resistance as inflation concerns and selling pressure persist.

Zcash traded near $1,111 on Thursday, extending Wednesday&rsquo;s roughly 6% decline.
A sustained four-hour close below $1,115 could expose support at $1,050 and $1,000.
ZEC needs to reclaim resistance between $1,242 and $1,264 to ease its near-term bearish outlook.
Zcash extends losses despite renewed ETF buying
Zcash continued to fall on Thursday as inflation concerns weighed on the broader cryptocurrency market, overshadowing a return to inflows into Grayscale&rsquo;s Zcash-focused exchange-traded fund.
ZEC traded around $1,094 at the time of the report, extending the previous day&rsquo;s roughly 6% loss. The decline brought the privacy coin below last week&rsquo;s $1,115 low, although a sustained four-hour close beneath that level remained important for confirming a breakdown.
The latest selling extends a correction from Zcash&rsquo;s late-September peak of $1,698. With momentum indicators still pointing lower, attention has shifted toward whether buyers can prevent a deeper retreat toward $1,000.
The US Consumer Price Index showed annual inflation of 3.7%, exceeding expectations of 3.6%, according to the supplied report.
The stronger reading increased concerns about persistent inflation and the possibility of further interest rate hikes, weakening appetite for cryptocurrencies.
Bitcoin&rsquo;s vulnerability around $80,000 added to the cautious backdrop. Further weakness in the largest cryptocurrency could intensify selling across altcoins, including Zcash.
These macroeconomic pressures have limited the impact of improved demand through ZEC investment products, leaving the token under pressure despite Wednesday&rsquo;s positive fund flows.
Grayscale&rsquo;s ZCSH attracts $3.68 million
Grayscale&rsquo;s Zcash-focused fund, ZCSH, recorded $3.68 million in inflows on Wednesday, according to SoSoValue data cited in the report.
The inflows ended two consecutive days of withdrawals, which followed two weeks of net outflows. The reversal offered an early indication of renewed demand through the product.
However, a single positive session does not establish a sustained recovery in investor appetite. Zcash&rsquo;s continued spot-market decline suggests the buying was insufficient to overcome broader selling pressure.
Whether ZCSH can attract further inflows will help determine if Wednesday&rsquo;s improvement develops into a more durable trend.
Zcash tests support below $1,115
Zcash&rsquo;s four-hour chart retains a bearish bias, with the price trading well below two important moving averages.
The 50-period Exponential Moving Average stands near $1,242, while the 200-period EMA sits around $1,264. Together, they form an overhead resistance zone that could complicate recovery attempts.
Momentum indicators reinforce the weak outlook. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator and its signal line remain below zero, accompanied by deeply negative histogram bars.
Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index hovers around 34, indicating subdued momentum while remaining slightly above the conventional oversold threshold of 30.
The immediate technical question is whether ZEC confirms a sustained break below $1,115. A four-hour close beneath that level would strengthen the bearish case and increase the risk of further losses.
If the breakdown holds, the September 4 high near $1,050 becomes the next downside reference, followed by psychological support at $1,000.
A failure to defend $1,000 could expose the August 23 high around $888. That deeper target remains conditional on Zcash losing the intervening support levels.
For buyers, the first significant recovery hurdle is the 50-period EMA at $1,242. Beyond that, the 200-period EMA near $1,264 presents another barrier.
Reclaiming this resistance zone would help ease downside pressure. Until then, weak momentum and broader market uncertainty leave Zcash exposed to further selling, with the $1,115 level central to its immediate direction.

VanEck has suggested to the Securities and Exchange Commission that it remove its proposed Lido Staked ETH registration.
The S-1 was filed for the first time on October 16, 2025 but not made effective.
No ETF shares were issued or sold and VanEck did not provide reasons for dropping the stETH cryptocurrency.

VanEck has officially put on the brakes on a long-anticipated U.S. exchange-traded fund (ETF) pegged to Lido staked Ether, concluding months of speculation in the cryptocurrency sector.
The asset manager filed a withdrawal request with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on October 14, 2026, confirming that it no longer intends to distribute shares of the proposed fund.
VanEck Withdraws Lido Staked Ethereum ETF Filing
VanEck Digital Assets filed a Form RW with the SEC that sought to withdraw the registration statement for the VanEck Lido Staked Ethereum ETF. The original Form S-1 was filed on October 16, 2025 under registration file number 333-290918 and was later amended.
VanEck indicated in a new filing that it withdrew its plans because the sponsor plans to not enter into the distribution of units of the trust.
The company didn&#8217;t specify what prompted the decision, which could have been due to regulatory concerns, market conditions, product strategy or something else.

No Shares Were Ever Issued
VanEck confirmed that it did not make the registration statement effective. It also stated that there was no distribution of any securities or a preliminary prospectus for the registration statement. That implies that the withdrawal ends the filing process prior to such product coming to the investors.
The new ETF was intended to sit at a stake position which is Lido&#8217;s own liquid staker protocol&#8217;s version of Ether, stETH, providing a secondary exposure to deposited ETH.
As a result of stETH being staked ETH and showing the accumulated staking rewards, the product offered was not exactly a traditional spot Ether ETF holding a position in ETH.
stETH ETF Plan Ends Without Replacement
VanEck didn&#8217;t state a successor fund or disclose if it plans to develop another Ethereum product focused on staking. The filing only states that the sponsor no longer plans to move forward with the existing trust. That leaves the prospects of VanEck&#8217;s Ethereum bet hanging in the balance.
Staking-based crypto ETFs have achieved attention due to their potential price exposure along with staking returns, whilst including more complexities upon the custody, rewards, liquidity and regulatory treatment.
Withdrawal Narrows VanEck’s Ethereum ETF Push
Another theme in the cancelled filing is the difference between traditional spot Ethereum exposure and investments over liquid staking tokens.
A stETH-based vehicle would have added another layer between investors and ETH itself, as stETH would be a claim relative to our staked ETH through Lido. But for now, VanEck has cut the route off.
The investors will not be able to access the planned Lido Staked Ethereum ETF via the structure originally proposed in the October 2025 edition.

Ripple is also beefing up its institutional footprint in South Korea with a fresh collaboration with Meritz Securities, a major South Korea security company. It is Ripple&#8217;s first capital markets deal with a Korean securities company.
Ripple and Meritz Target Tokenized Capital Markets
As part of the partnership, Meritz Securities has proposed the trial of the deployment of Ripple Custody and Ripple&#8217;s tokenization platform in its current securities business. Ripple Custody is intended for regulated financial institutions which require safer and more reliable infrastructure to secure them and move them.
Instead, Meritz would not have to develop the institutional stack from scratch, and could instead utilize the current institutional stack in order to serve Korea&#8217;s regulations.
The two companies are due to start in the scope of Meritz&#8217;s business to expand the partnership gradually in line with the progress of the digital asset framework in the country.

Meritz Explores ETFs, Security Tokens and KRW Stablecoins
Meritz is already looking at several digital asset business plans, such as spot ETFs, fractional investment, security tokens, digital asset trading platforms and stablecoins denominated in the Korean won.
This is a bigger picture plan, and the Ripple partnership is part of that. It, however, doesn&#8217;t indicate a production date or tokenized asset, nor does it confirm that any of those will roll out immediately on the Ripple infrastructure.
Ripple Expands Across Korea’s Financial Sector
Ripple&#8217;s partnership with Meritz is the fourth institutional one in Korea this year. Kyobo Life Insurance is collaborating with Ripple Custody on a project related to tokenization of Korean government bond settlement.
To utilize digital asset wallet infrastructure, Kbank is taking advantage of Ripple Custody&#8217;s service, while Jeonbuk Bank is utilizing Ripple Payments for cross-border remittances. This results in Ripple connections throughout three key sectors of Korea&#8217;s financial sector: banking, insurance and capital markets.
It has over 85 regulatory licenses and registrations in more than 60 markets around the world, said Ripple.

XRP Role Remains Undisclosed
The partnership will further enhance Ripple&#8217;s enterprise footprint, though Meritz does not announce that it will be issuing tokens directly on the XRP Ledger or that it will utilize XRP. Ripple Custody is able to power digital asset institutional operations without reliance on XRP.
Once a tokenized security or a stablecoin is issued on XRPL using XRP, XRP can be utilised for fees and account reserve payments on XRPL, however, it has not been confirmed.
As of yet, the agreement focuses on the custody and tokenization infrastructure, while the specific products and the blockchain architecture will rely on regulatory developments and Meritz&#8217;s ultimate decisions on which products to implement.

These are the obligations in guidance the Australian Securities and Investments Commission (ASIC) has put out for consultation ahead of new laws that commence on 8 April 2027.London's trading industry is coming home!ASIC’s Consultation Paper 392, titled Digital asset law reform implementation: Proposed standards and guidance, covers digital asset platforms and tokenised custody platforms. It outlines how the regulator proposes to approach compliance with the framework introduced by the Corporations Amendment (Digital Assets Framework) Act 2026, known as the DAF Act.The package includes draft compliance guidance, proposed standards on asset-holding activities and on trading and settlement activities, and proposed financial requirements for licensees.ASIC Commissioner Alan Kirkland said the proposals reflect the pace of change in global markets. “Our proposed guidance and standards acknowledge the increasing role of digital assets and tokenisation, including in traditional parts of the financial system,” he said.He added that the approach rests on the principle of “same activity, same risk, same regulatory outcome”, intended to align Australia with comparable overseas jurisdictions. “Bringing digital asset platforms and tokenised custody platforms into the financial services regulatory framework means consumers can have greater confidence when trading digital assets,” Kirkland said.Who the Rules Cover and How to RespondThe DAF Act introduces two new categories. Digital asset platforms (DAPs) involve holding digital tokens on behalf of clients and providing associated platform services. Tokenised custody platforms (TCPs) are arrangements that record underlying assets held for clients as digital tokens.ASIC’s proposed guidance applies to operators of both, and to others providing financial services for these products. It also covers existing AFS licensees, market participants, payments providers and other businesses that use or deal with digital assets.ASIC also proposes to streamline licensing for existing AFS licensees, and for firms that applied for an authorisation under Information Sheet 225 (INFO 225), when they add DAP or TCP authorisations.The consultation is open until 5pm AEDT on 27 November 2026.How the Rules Got HereINFO 225 sets out how existing financial services law applies to digital assets. ASIC updated it in October 2025 and released a sector-wide no-action position alongside it. In June 2026, ASIC expanded the scope and conditions of that position and extended its deadline to 30 September 2026.When the INFO 225 update was published, Finance Magnates reported that ASIC’s guidance confirmed stablecoins, wrapped tokens, tokenised securities and digital asset wallets are considered financial products under current law, meaning many providers offering them need a financial services licence. At the time, Kirkland said licensing gives consumers legal protections and lets ASIC act when poor practices cause harm. ASIC also planned temporary relief for distributors of stablecoins and wrapped tokens, and for custodians of digital assets that qualify as financial products.ASIC has since recorded more than 140 applications from businesses seeking to provide digital asset-related financial services. That includes more than 110 received in response to INFO 225 during the no-action period, which ran from October 2025 to 30 September 2026.ASIC set out its roadmap for implementing the new regime in April 2026. It said its proposed guidance draws on engagement through its Digital Asset Advisory Group, regular Fintech Liaison Meetings and international peer regulator forums.

Aptos started hiding details of pending transactions in its Encrypted Mempool on mainnet.
Validators are not the first to process transactions, thereby mitigating the possibility of frontrunning and sandwich attacks.
The system brings in around 20 milliseconds of the delay per block for 50 nodes.
User Score8.7

Aptos has activated a protocol-native encrypted mempool on mainnet, giving users an optional way to hide transaction details until block ordering is finalized. The feature aims at mitigating a longstanding issue in DeFi: frontrunning and sandwich attacks on visibly pending transactions via MEV tactics.
Aptos Encrypts Transactions Before They Enter the Mempool
If the feature is enabled by the users, its transaction payload is encrypted on the client before being sent to the network. Sensitive information like function call and arguments are hidden, but the sender address and gas fee are still visible.
Validators then confirm the ordering of the transactions without having to view the payment message itself. Validators then collectively decrypt the transactions if consensus has agreed on the block, allowing them to execute the transactions and add them to the blockchain record.

No Single Validator Can Unlock a Pending Transaction
Aptos implements threshold encryption directly based on its current set of validators. No single validator is able to decode a pending transaction nor is any of the group below its required stake threshold.
We do not create any additional decryption committee or any private block builder or trusted hardware provider in Aptos. Rather than that, AQUA token conversion is handled by the same validators that facilitate the Aptos consensus.
Encrypted Mempool Targets Frontrunning and Sandwich Bots
The public mempools show transaction data prior to execution. That&#8217;s where automated trading bots find some opportunity to spot huge transactions, copy or execute trades before and after another trader.
With the payload secret and confirmed repayment order solved, Aptos eliminates numerous of the information these bots need to disrupt holding trades.
Protection may be particularly relevant for institutional orders, big DeFi trades and automated agents, as early disclosure of transaction intention may result in execution risk.
Petra is first to make the feature available as part of its signing process, letting users choose to encrypt a transaction at sign time. Additionally, a perpetual futures exchange on Aptos, Decibel, will be using encrypted mempool infrastructure to ensure that orders remain off-chain until they are executed.

Aptos Adds Privacy With About 20ms of Extra Latency
Running threshold encryption at blockchain scale adds to the computation required, but according to Aptos, the performance effect is minimal.
Its batched encryption design will allow it to decrypt an entire block with constant-size communication per validator, regardless of the number of transactions in the batch.
Testing with 50 nodes resulted in an additional 20 milliseconds per block over the production version of AptosBFT. The delay is insignificant as Aptos blocks are finalized in less than a second.
Restrictions in both of the first implementations prevent complete transaction anonymity. Sender addresses and gas information are still visible, while the transaction payload itself remains encrypted until block finalization.
Existing Move smart contracts do not require changes, and support is available through the Aptos TypeScript SDK version 7.0.0 and later.

Income from two sources. Net proceeds from the sales of MSTR common stock funded an equal amount of the purchase; MSTR&#8217;s cash balance funded the remainder which amounted to approximately USD 500,000.
A total of 125,183 MSTR shares were sold this past week, yielding net proceeds of $21.0 million.
Bitcoin Treasury Reaches 848,250 BTC
As of 11 October, Strategy had 848,250 BTC in its balance. The total money allotted to the purchase of those assets at various times was around $64.0 billion, including fees and expenses, the company said.
That means Strategy has ended up paying an average of $75,444 per BTC for all of its Bitcoin holdings. The firm is sticking to its core capital approach, which involves equity issuance and cash reserves, and not on just one fund source, and continues to focus on the Bitcoin aspect of the business.
Strategy Spends $192.4M Repurchasing STRC Shares
Bitcoin was not the only big investment that Strategy made in the week. The Company purchased 1,932,145 STRC preferred shares for an aggregate purchase price of $192.4 million. STRF, STRK, STRD and MSTR have not had any repurchases reported for the same time period.
Strategy has $354.8 million under its optional preferred-stock repurchase program and $1.0 billion under its authorization to buy back MSTR common stock.
$4.88B Reserve Supports Strategy’s Bitcoin Capital Framework
As of October 11, Strategy also had $4.88 billion USD of Reserve and $640.5 million USD of separate USD Cash. The USD Reserve is the reserved share of the debt to support preferred-stock dividends and interest payments on the debt.
USD Cash can have a more salient role and may be used for the acquisition of Bitcoin, expansion of the reserves, or in other aspects of capital management. The firm has utilised $500,000 in those cash reservoirs for its latest Bitcoin investment, while the majority of the acquiring investment was made with new MSTR stock dollars.

RLUSD&#8217;s listing on the XRP Ledger is now covered under Standard Chartered&#8217;s institutional custody program.
The bank is negotiating with Ripple and LMAX group to qualify RLUSD as collateral for the bank.
The planned setup potentially will allow institutions to trade via RLUSD without transferring tokens to the venue.

Standard Chartered has taken another step into stablecoin infrastructure by launching custody support for Ripple USD, or RLUSD, on the XRP Ledger.
Now it is offered to eligible institutional traders from the bank&#8217;s Dubai International Financial Centre branch, and a wider collateral integration with Ripple and LMAX Group is underway.
Standard Chartered Launches RLUSD Custody on XRPL
Standard Chartered&#8217;s digital asset custody infrastructure has now made eligible clients able to hold RLUSD. The service is offered through the bank’s DIFC branch, which is regulated by the Dubai Financial Services Authority.
That provides another way for institutions to gain access to RLUSD, aside from crypto-native custodians. The move is targeted at those looking to gain access to digital asset markets without compromising on the importance of maintaining institutional level practices for long-term custody, governance and risk management, Standard Chartered Inc said.
RLUSD runs on the XRP Ledger, the platform that aims to deliver quick and cheap settlement for DeFi applications.

RLUSD Could Stay in Custody While Supporting Trading
The more noteworthy facet of the partnership is the envisioned cross collateral model. Standard Chartered and the LMAX Group plan to enable RLUSD to qualify for specific products and trading services.
According to this design, the client will not be required to transmit their RLUSD to the trading platform. LMAX, on the other hand, would be reimbursed by the bank Standard Chartered for the value of the eligible collateral, with the underlying tokens still held by the bank.
The model should help to mitigate operational risks associated with frequent transfers of assets and increase control around exposure to counterparties for institutions.
Ripple and LMAX Target More Efficient Stablecoin Collateral
Collateral mobility may be as critical to an institution as to the custody. Once the planned integration goes live, companies may potentially be able to keep RLUSD and apply its value throughout the LMAX trading infrastructure.
That could help to better utilize capital by eliminating the need for entities to shift capital from platform to platform. The true use cases for the ripple are where institutions want stablecoins to operate within a known and regulated financial environment, said Ripple.

Full Collateral Integration Is Not Live Yet
Custody service is already in place; however, the RLUSD collateral functionality is still in development at LMAX.
Final documentation, successful testing, regulatory requirements, internal approvals and jurisdictional readiness remain as factors that must be considered before the companies start implementing.
The partnership brings together three separate pieces of infrastructure: Ripple’s stablecoin and XRPL settlement layer, Standard Chartered’s institutional custody platform and LMAX Group’s trading marketplace.
Completed, it would transition the stablecoin to more direct involvement of RLUSD in institutional trading and collateral management, instead of the stablecoin being limited to payments and settlement.

All of them lost money. He wants the exchange’s operator to return the Bitcoin lost on those trades, but is not asking the court to revisit the rest of his trading, according to a claim reviewed by Guardian. Barber, a British software engineer, is seeking 324.8 Bitcoin or damages of equivalent value from HDR Global Trading Limited, which operated BitMEX. As of October 1, that amounts to £20.4 million.His trades were placed through five accounts between 2018 and 2022. Why Barber Seeks Repayment Barber argues that BitMEX entered into the disputed perpetual swaps without the authorisation required in the UK. He relies on Section 26 of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000, under which a customer may seek the return of money or property transferred under an agreement made during unauthorised regulated activity. However, the trader applies that argument to the 1,053 losing trades, rather than seeking to unwind every transaction on his accounts. The court hasn’t yet decided whether the provision covers those trades or how much Barber could recover. Even if an authorisation breach is proven, Section 28 lets a court enforce the agreement, or allow the provider to keep the transferred property, if it considers that just and equitable.The Dispute over BitMEX’s UK Activity For Barber’s argument to succeed, the court must also consider BitMEX’s activity in the UK. His claim says the platform allowed users to select the country as their place of residence and did not block access from there. It also cites a BitMEX advertisement published in The Times in January 2019. In March 2020, while Barber was still trading, the Financial Conduct Authority warned that BitMEX might be providing financial services or products in the UK without authorisation. The warning did not determine whether Barber’s particular trades breached UK rules; that question remains part of his case.Barber’s lawyers at Seladore Legal are inviting other former UK-based BitMEX clients to register their interest. The firm says it will assess each person’s trading history and circumstances before deciding whether they have a potential claim.Barber is not the only UK crypto-derivatives customer pursuing an authorisation-based claim. As Finance Magnates reported, 1,692 traders have brought a separate lawsuit alleging that Binance sold them derivatives it was not authorised to offer. Neither case has established liability for the exchange concerned.

Federated Hermes is teaming up with Prometheum to get a tokenized investment fund onto the traditional brokerage channels in the U.S. The firms would like brokers and financial advisers to be one way investors can get into blockchain-based securities instead of just crypto-native platforms.
Today we announced a strategic partnership with Federated Hermes, Inc. to distribute tokenized securities through traditional broker-dealer channels.
We believe this will provide product issuers the blueprint for how tokenized funds will reach mainstream investors through the regulated intermediaries they already rely on.
Over $14B in tokenized U.S. Treasury and money market funds alone are on-chain, per https://t.co/9jzdtWoVDT — but almost none of it is accessible through traditional brokerage accounts. ProFinancial will support the distribution of the tokenized products, and Prometheum Capital will custody, clear, and settle these products. Any authorized broker-dealer that clears through us can begin to offer tokenized products to clients without building its own crypto asset infrastructure.

Federated Hermes Plans Tokenized Fund Launch in Q1 2027
The first product of the collaboration is slated for the market in Q1 of 2027.
With assets of $911.6 billion as of June 30, 2026, Federated Hermes will supply expertise in investment management and tokenized products.
Prometheum will provide regulatory infrastructure to distribute and service them. The structure is designed to take the same kinds of fund/broker relationships that many U.S. investors have for traditional funds and apply them to blockchain-based funds.

Broker-Dealers Can Access Tokenized Products Without Building Crypto Infrastructure
Issuing and distributing will be undertaken by Prometheum&#8217;s ProFinancial subsidiary while handling the custody, clearing and settlement will be undertaken by Prometheum Capital.
Without a need for a digital-asset custody and settlement system, such broker-dealers could then offer tokenized products to clients through a clearinghouse facilitated by Prometheum Capital.
That should help remove one of the largest hurdles to tokenizing assets: distribution.
There are numerous tokenized funds on blockchain networks, though many of these were only available through specialist platforms and not the usual brokerage accounts.
$14B Tokenized Fund Market Gets Traditional Distribution Route
There is already over $14 billion of tokenized U.S. Treasury and money market funds onchain, says Prometheum. The partnership is designed to give that growing asset class a more direct path into regulated brokerage infrastructure.
Blockchain-based access to traditional investments products is attracting demand from broker-dealers and registered investment advisers, said Federated Hermes.
Instead of replacing established financial intermediaries, the model keeps broker-dealers, custodians and clearing firms at the center of the transaction flow.

Prometheum Builds Full Stack for Tokenized Securities
Prometheum&#8217;s larger overall structure features multiple regulated entities with various stages of the securities lifecycle.
ProFinancial is responsible for issuance and distribution, Prometheum Capital is a custody and clearing service and Prometheum ATS has registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission as a digital transfer agent.
That entity provides the company with a playbook to follow for tokenized securities from issuance to custody to eventual trade. At Federated Hermes we are able to add to that the scale that we have, we are over 11,000 institutions and intermediaries globally.
If the launch of Q1 2027 is as expected, the partnership could prove the capability of tokenized funds to successfully get onto investor investable networks beyond cryptocurrency exchange platforms.

Coinbase participated in a four-day assault of scam networks in West Africa in London.
Its Global Intelligence team tracked illicit crypto activity, aided asset freeze operations, and provided intelligence sharing with law enforcement.
The impersonation scams included fake crypto investments and staged video-call arrests by the police.

Coinbase has joined a coordinated enforcement effort aimed at disrupting scam networks expanding into West Africa.
During an operation in London, Oct. 6 &#8211; 9, the exchange collaborated with the UK&#8217;s National Crime Agency, the U.S. Department of Justice&#8217;s Scam Center Strike Force, Tech Against Scams and other international partners.
Coinbase Traces Crypto Flows Behind Scam Networks
Coinbase&#8217;s Global Intelligence team was dedicated to tracking illegal funds related to scam operations. The company said investigators helped trace funds, supported asset freezes and could help ongoing criminal investigations for the company.
The work integrated blockchain transaction data with other elements of the digital ecosystem, such as fake social media profiles, messaging accounts, and fraudulent sites.
That can aid investigators connect activity that might appear disjoint when it shows on various platforms. The purpose was not just to shut off individual accounts, Coinbase said, but also to uncover the underlying systems that are being leveraged to mask the movement of stolen assets and run scams.

Scammers Used Fake Investments and Staged Arrests
The operation was directed at various aspects of fraud. Coinbase identified fake cryptocurrency investment schemes, a virtual arrest via video call designed to flex the power cords, and criminals posing as law enforcement officers.
Often scams are executed over numerous services until any funds end up in a crypto wallet or exchange. The victim might first be contacted via social media, then switched to a private messaging service after which they are asked to pay using financial channels.
That&#8217;s why enterprise-level intelligence sharing is particularly valuable when the investigators are trying to uncover the entire scheme.
West Africa Emerges as a New Focus
Effort to crack down on scam compounds across Southeast Asia has compelled certain criminal organisations to expand their activities to other global areas such as West Africa, Coinbase said.
Every effort has been made to disrupt networks that could have built stronger infrastructure in London. Members focused on the accounts, communications and payment mechanisms that facilitate scam activity.
The work also signals another trend for tech vendors, financial institutions, telecom and security organizations all getting more involved with investigations, coordinated efforts.
Coinbase Keeps Pressure on Crypto Fraud Networks
Coinbase has previously tracked down scams in a similar fashion. The company has explained that its part in the latest campaign was ensuring that blockchain intelligence could be merged with data collected by third party organizations and would enable police to respond quicker.
Vice President Leah Bressack described the strategy as sustained pressure on criminal networks that move between regions and platforms.
Coinbase said it plans to continue working with Tech Against Scams and law enforcement partners to trace illicit funds, disrupt active schemes and support investigations against the groups operating them.

With the collaboration of Ripple, Privy offers programmable wallet infrastructure to the XRP Ledger.
Developers can create and develop using XRP, RLUSD and any other assets on the XRPL and develop embedded and server-side wallets.
Over the course of the last 14 years, XRPL has achieved more than $1 trillion in value transferred and over 8 million funded accounts.
User Score8.7
Follow us on Google News
Ripple and Privy are building wallet capabilities on the XRP Ledger for payments, stablecoin products and automatic transactions. The integration is designed to remove much of the wallet-management complexity that can slow crypto adoption inside fintech apps and payment platforms.
Privy Brings Programmable Wallets to XRP Ledger
Currently, every XRPL user must have to install and use a standalone crypto wallet, but with Privy&#8217;s API this will be eliminated.
It will also enable developers to sign XRPL transactions on Privy&#8217;s infrastructure and develop apps based on XRP, Ripple USD and other digital assets issued on XRPL.
Embedded wallets could bring stablecoin payments more into the realm of traditional fintech experiences for consumer facing products. Users don&#8217;t have to handle private keys when using the app in normal conditions.
Meanwhile, Privy will allow for private-key and seed-phrase exports, which will aid users in retaining ownership of their private keys.

Server-Side Wallets Open the Door to Agent Payments
The partnership also aims at server side wallets that enable software agents to collect funds and conduct transactions automatically. Privy mentions x402 payments, a standard that is being developed for machine-to-machine and automated commerce.
That gives developers the opportunity of creating AI agents or standalone applications that can transfer funds to others, get funds from them, or interact with the blockchain financial services without human intervention every time.
XRP and RLUSD Gain More Developer Infrastructure
With Ripple prioritizing XRPL&#8217;s entry into payments and tokenized finance, the integration seems to be just another development blanket over the XRP and RLUSD layers. According to Privy, XRPL is in its 14+ years of operation with more than 8 million funded accounts. The network has also received a total of over $1 trillion transferred.
The network is fast and has low transaction fees, which makes it suitable for payment-related applications that need transactions to be cheap and fast. privy&#8217;s tools might enable that capacity to be adopted more easily by fintech products, requiring developers to create wallet infrastructure from scratch.

Ripple and Privy Plan Deeper Wallet Controls
The two companies are also working on some additional features for the integration, which currently centers on wallet creation, asset support and transaction signing. The future development of the policy controls and gas sponsorship will continue, said Privy.
Policy controls could provide greater powers of regulation for developers when it comes to the transactions possible with certain wallets, and gas sponsorship can eliminate yet another level of complexity for end users when using the blockchain.
The payment providers and developers creating automated applications could find that the combination makes XRPL wallets more of a financial tool than a standalone crypto wallet.

It is the first of the 45 e-money tokens notified in the European Union to receive the label.From November 12, the EBA will directly supervise USDC's own funds, reserve of assets, liquidity and recovery and redemption plans. Those tasks move from France's Prudential Control and Resolution Authority (ACPR), which licensed Circle as an e-money institution in July 2024.London's trading industry is coming home!The decision hands an EU-level supervisor the reserves behind a token Circle said had $73.3 billion in circulation worldwide at the end of June, up 19% from a year earlier.The largest dollar stablecoin is absent from regulated EU venues. Tether did not seek MiCA authorization for USDT, which major regulated platforms delisted before the July 1 deadline.What It Means for Platforms Listing USDCFrom November, exchanges and brokers that offer USDC in the EU will list a token whose reserves are supervised by the EBA, rather than by a national authority.Kraken expanded support for USDC and EURC in September 2025 to cut conversion fees for its users.Binance went further. In September, it bought a $100 million stake in Circle alongside a five-year USDC agreement under which Circle pays the exchange monthly incentives tied to USDC balances.USDC supply has moved both ways this year. Circulation stood at $77.0 billion at the end of March before falling to $73.3 billion by the end of June, according to Circle's quarterly results.Circle cited Visa Onchain Analytics data putting USDC at 63% of stablecoin transaction volume in the first quarter.Who Supervises What From November 12USDC will fall under the dual supervision MiCA sets for significant tokens. The ACPR keeps governance, qualifying holdings, fit-and-proper assessments, outsourcing and conflicts of interest.The EBA said it and the ACPR would work closely to ensure a smooth transition. The authority reassesses every year whether a token still meets the criteria for significance.Under MiCA, a token is significant when it meets at least three of seven criteria. They include more than 10 million holders, an issued value or reserve above EUR 5 billion, and more than 2.5 million transactions worth over EUR 500 million a day.The other criteria cover the issuer's international reach, its links to the financial system and whether it issues other tokens while providing crypto services.The EBA did not say which criteria USDC met.Circle's euro token, EURC, is issued under the same French license. The decision applies only to USDC.A Token Issued on Both Sides of the AtlanticUSDC is issued in the EU by Circle Internet Financial Europe SAS and in the US by Circle Internet Financial, LLC, the EBA noted.The EBA has a memorandum of understanding with the New York State Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) on cross-border stablecoin supervision. It announced the agreement on June 2, saying it covers issuers it supervises directly under MiCA.The agreement provides for information exchange, mutual assistance in ongoing supervision and coordination in a crisis. The EBA said it had assessed the New York regulator's confidentiality rules as equivalent to those under MiCA, a condition for sharing confidential information.In the US, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) gave Circle final approval in July for a national trust bank, which will start with custody for Circle and its affiliates.A stablecoin issued in one jurisdiction and used in another still falls under separate US, UK and EU regimes, Hedera Chief Policy Officer Nilmini Rubin wrote in a FinanceMagnates.com column in August.

Ripple is in a partnership with DriveWealth, to secure the integration of the RLUSD settlement, cross-border payment capabilities, digital asset custody and institutional equity financing.
With the initial rollout of stablecoins set to begin in Europe, then the USA.
Ripple has a video conference with over 100 partners worldwide and will be introducing it to the DriveWealth platform.

DriveWealth, a brokerage infrastructure provider for fintechs and financial institutions across the globe. Announced on October 14, the agreement aims to connect traditional investing services with stablecoin settlement and blockchain-based payment rails.
RLUSD Targets Faster Brokerage Funding
The collaboration will initially involve Ripple&#8217;s stablecoin technology being used within DriveWealth&#8217;s settlement activities in Europe, potentially extending to the U.S. in the future. RLUSD will feature on the XRP Ledger (XRPL), along with the minting and burning capability of Ripple.
It aims to facilitate the transfer of assets into collateral accounts for the brokerage clients without doing anything but using wire transfers. With the proposed scheme, investors should be able to place trades with stablecoins that can be repatriated to cash very soon.
The firms are fixing a TIMING PROBLEM in financial markets. U.S. equities settle T+1 and international bank transfers can be longer. These delays can result in capital being held captive between deals and a need for extra liquidity.

RLUSD Gains Another Institutional Use Case
RLUSD is Ripple&#8217;s USD stablecoin, pegged to the price of the U.S. dollar. If it is integrated into DriveWealth&#8217;s infrastructure, it will provide a broader solution than just crypto trading, adding to the funding and settlement for conventional investment accounts.
The statement did not include any specifics regarding expected transactions or a launch date nor the exact date of U.S. expansion.
Four Areas of Financial Infrastructure
The agreement is not limited to settlement of stablecoins. By adding support for Ripple Payments, DriveWealth will make it easier to accept funds from its international partners for its global brokerage network.
European digital asset custody for DriveWealth is another focus for the companies, and other markets will be explored over time. DriveWealth and Ripple Prime separately are looking at equity financing programs in the Delta One business that covers U.S. equities and equity derivatives on which Ripple Prime operates.
These efforts are all designed to tie payments, custody, treasury and trading together. Additionally, DriveWealth has plans to place its treasury and custody platform on top of the Ripple network, providing clients with a more integrated approach to managing dollars, stablecoins and crypto assets.
DriveWealth Network Could Extend Ripple’s Reach
DriveWealth offers brokerage-as-a-service infrastructure for U.S.-market access to over 100 partners worldwide, including fintech, digital wallet and financial organizations.
That network gives Ripple a potential route to introduce its digital asset services into existing investment platforms rather than relying solely on direct crypto adoption. DriveWealth CEO Naureen Hassan said the company had already enabled 24/5 trading and now wanted funding capabilities that better match market access.

After scrolling through the latest updates, your bookmarks may be full, but the takeaways may not be as clear. The recently concluded TOKEN2049 also raised plenty of topics worth exploring. At moments like these, opening Catcrs and starting with familiar market data can help you identify areas worth following over the long term, drawing on industry news and market information. Making it a regular starting point for your daily market monitoring can also help connect scattered information and build a consistent approach to tracking developments.
So, which themes from TOKEN2049 this year deserve continued attention?
The TOKEN2049 Week this year featured extensive discussions on payments and treasury management, asset tokenization, AI payments, and on-chain finance. Three themes in particular warrant closer monitoring: stablecoins, asset tokenization, and AI payments.
Stablecoins: Payment Settlement and Real-World Adoption 
Start with stablecoins. Fast transfers are one of their most recognizable features. For recipients, however, what matters more is how easily they can use the funds. Receiving funds on-chain is only the first step. The amount they actually receive after conversion and the time it takes for the money to reach their bank account will influence whether they choose to accept payments this way again.
Going forward, watch for newly supported regions, merchant integrations, and changes to conversion and withdrawal fees. Whether newly announced partnerships can reduce waiting times and lower costs is a development worth tracking.
Asset Tokenization: Accessibility, Liquidity, and Redemption 
Next, consider asset tokenization. Bringing bonds, funds, and gold on-chain opens up new possibilities. When researching these products, start by checking whether they are available, who is eligible to participate, where returns come from, and what conditions must be met to exit.
Importantly, the ability to transfer an asset on-chain does not mean it can always be sold easily. Beyond issuance size, actual trading activity, bid-ask spreads, and redemption arrangements also deserve attention.
Using Catcrs with these questions in mind gives daily market monitoring a clearer focus. After identifying an asset of interest, review the underlying business, relevant announcements, and token mechanics, then return to the market data to observe how the market responds.
AI Payments: Automation, Authorization, and User Control 
Another area worth watching is AI payments. When AI moves beyond offering advice to taking action on the user behalf, permission management becomes critical. Look at which products are already available, which tasks AI can complete independently, and how key processes such as payments, identity verification, and settlement are designed.
For example, when AI makes a payment on the user behalf, the way spending limits are set, whether recipients require confirmation, whether transaction records can be accessed, and whether authorization can be revoked at any time will all shape the user experience. More than an impressive demonstration, the ability to understand the process and retain control will determine whether a product can become a genuine part of everyday life.
How to Evaluate Progress Across These Trends 
Stablecoins, asset tokenization, and AI payments address the movement of funds, asset issuance and trading, and intelligent task execution, respectively. Each theme has a different focus, but all require market performance to be assessed alongside actual business progress. Choose one or two projects under each theme, record their current progress, plans yet to be delivered, and a date for your next review. A few weeks later, check whether the products have become available, whether the businesses have gained new users, and whether earlier questions have been answered. This allows research to build over time without having to chase new terminology every day.
Key Takeaways
For those who want to deepen their understanding of digital assets without letting the flood of news disrupt their routine, Catcrs can serve as a starting point for daily market monitoring. Begin with market data, add project information and business updates, then return to the market to test your assessments. This gives every browsing session a clear focus and leaves useful leads for the next round of research.

XRP bounced from $1.32 following news of Standard Chartered&rsquo;s involvement in an RLUSD custody arrangement.
The deal with Ripple and LMAX would allow institutional clients to place RLUSD with the bank.
XRP ETFs have attracted around $12 million this month, pointing to substantially weaker inflows than September.
XRP rebounded from support at $1.32 as investors assessed a custody arrangement involving Standard Chartered, Ripple and institutional trading firm LMAX Group.
Announced Monday, the deal would allow LMAX customers to place Ripple USD (RLUSD) with Standard Chartered, adding bank custody capabilities to their stablecoin activities.
The development supports Ripple&rsquo;s institutional expansion, although XRP&rsquo;s technical outlook remains cautious and ETF inflows have slowed.
Standard Chartered brings bank custody to RLUSD
The arrangement aims to give institutional clients greater flexibility in safeguarding RLUSD and managing risk.
Standard Chartered&rsquo;s Global Head of Digital Assets, Waqar Chaudry, said clients want access to digital asset markets while maintaining established standards for asset protection.
He added that combining the bank&rsquo;s capabilities with Ripple and LMAX could help institutions incorporate digital assets into their broader financial activities.
The agreement concerns custody of RLUSD. Its implications for XRP depend on whether broader ecosystem adoption translates into demand for the token.
RLUSD has grown to approximately $2.4 billion in market capitalization, according to RWA.xyz figures.
Ripple has also pursued licenses in key jurisdictions to support payments and other financial services using the stablecoin for settlement.
The Standard Chartered arrangement adds another institutional connection to that effort. Expanded RLUSD usage could support activity across the XRP Ledger, providing additional opportunities for payments and financial applications.
However, stablecoin growth and XRP investment flows currently present different pictures.
SoSoValue data shows XRP-linked ETFs have received approximately $12 million in net inflows this month.
If that pace continues, October inflows could finish below $30 million&mdash;roughly 75% lower than September&rsquo;s total.
That projection remains dependent on flows during the rest of the month, but the current figures suggest institutional investors have become more cautious during XRP&rsquo;s pullback.
A stronger recovery would benefit from renewed buying interest alongside the ecosystem&rsquo;s custody and payments developments.
XRP price outlook: $1.28 holds the key to recovery
The latest bounce reinforces $1.32 as an important near-term support level. Analysts places the 200-day exponential moving average near that area.
A further decline could bring $1.28 into focus. The analyst views that level as the final support underpinning the recovery scenario; a sustained break below it could expose a deeper move toward $1.
The Relative Strength Index has fallen to around 40, indicating weak momentum. That reading alone does not confirm that selling pressure is exhausted or that a rebound is imminent.
Provided $1.28 holds, XRP maintains an upside target of $1.80 over the coming weeks, followed by $2.10 if buying momentum strengthens. Those levels remain conditional forecasts as XRP attempts to stabilize after its correction.

Pi Network traded below $0.080 Wednesday after a 2% rebound the previous day.
The Pi Core Team is exploring stablecoin integration intended to complement PI&rsquo;s existing utility.
PI remains below its 50-day and 200-day EMAs, with weak momentum keeping the near-term outlook bearish.
Pi Network (PI) has dropped below $0.0800 on Wednesday after a modest rebound helped it avoid extending losses below last week&rsquo;s low.
The token traded around $0.07956, losing the previous session&rsquo;s 2% gain. Meanwhile, the Pi Core Team reiterated its exploration of stablecoin integration as a way to broaden activity across the ecosystem.
Despite the recovery, PI remains below key moving averages, leaving the price vulnerable if support at $0.0774 fails.
Pi Core team explores stablecoin integration
The Pi Core Team is considering how stablecoins could support additional ecosystem uses while preserving PI&rsquo;s role as the network&rsquo;s native cryptocurrency.
Stablecoins can play an important role in expanding certain utility across the Pi ecosystem, particularly in use cases where predictable price stability is important.
The introduction of stablecoins requires a deliberate, unique approach, and must be aligned with Pi Network&rsquo;s ecosystem and principles.
&amp;- Simply adding a stablecoin does not guarantee that it will naturally complement Pi.
&amp;- How the two function alongside each other depends on how stablecoins are integrated into the Pi ecosystem.
This makes the design and initial introduction especially important. Stablecoin functionality should be directed toward circumstances where price stability is needed while preserving the utility of the Pi cryptocurrency across the broader ecosystem.

&mdash; Pi Network (@PiCoreTeam) October 13, 2026
Its partnership with Open Standard, the issuer of OUSD, focuses on potential stablecoin integration and rewards programs for Pi users, known as Pioneers.
According to the announcement, Open Standard is backed by companies including Visa and Stripe. Planned OUSD rewards initiatives aim to encourage broader ecosystem participation.
The integration remains an area of exploration, with the team emphasizing that stablecoin functionality should complement PI&rsquo;s utility.
PI rebounds but remains below key moving averages
PI&rsquo;s rebound has provided some relief after recent selling pressure, but the broader technical picture remains weak.
The token trades below the 50-day exponential moving average at $0.0882 and the 200-day EMA at $0.1256. Both remain overhead barriers to a sustained recovery.
In the near term, PI is trading between support at $0.0774 and resistance around $0.0827. The latter corresponds to the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement identified in the analysis.
Until buyers overcome that upper boundary, the latest gain remains a rebound within a bearish structure.
The Relative Strength Index is near 37, below its neutral midpoint and consistent with continued selling pressure.
The Moving Average Convergence Divergence indicator remains slightly negative and below its signal line, reinforcing the cautious outlook.
These readings suggest the rebound has yet to produce a convincing shift in momentum. Holding above $0.0800 offers short-term stability, but buyers still need to clear nearby resistance.
On the downside, a sustained break below $0.0774 could expose the $0.0704 swing low.
On the upside, PI first needs to reclaim $0.0827 before challenging the 50-day EMA at $0.0882. Moving above both levels would strengthen the case for a more durable recovery.
A sustained advance beyond $0.0882 could then bring the 50% Fibonacci retracement near $0.0990 into focus.
For now, the ability to defend $0.0774 and overcome $0.0827 will help determine whether the rebound develops into a recovery or gives way to renewed losses.

The Central Bank of Russia has granted Sberbank permission to provide cryptocurrency exchange.
Nine companies were added to the country&#8217;s register of crypto exchanges, including VTB and T-Invest Lab.
On December 1, 2026, Sberbank will offer its first crypto products on its existing customer platforms.

Russia has extended its regulated crypto market by placing Sberbank on the list of the Bank of Russia of organizations based in the country that are permitted to exchange cryptocurrencies.
Approval will enable the world&#8217;s largest lender to have a more formal position in the crypto sphere after also being placed in Russia&#8217;s digital depository register earlier this month.

Sberbank Gets Approval to Offer Crypto Exchange Services
On October 12, the Bank of Russia included Sberbank in its list of crypto exchange organizations. Under Russia&#8217;s new regulatory framework, the registration will enable the bank to deliver services related to digital currency circulation and exchange.
Sberbank is to create its first crypto products by December 1 and make them available in existing interfaces for the user. That could help people who already use banking services to continue using them, without migrating to a separate crypto-native platform.
The latest one makes Russia the top country for crypto exchange operations with a total of nine. Other accredited firms include T-Invest Lab, part of the T-Technologies group together with T-Bank.
Sberbank Also Secures Digital Depository Status
The exchange was added to Russia&#8217;s digital depository register earlier this month, which is why it is included on Sberbank&#8217;s list of exchanges. There are different functions shipped with the two registrations.
Crypto exchange operators can provide services for buying and selling digital currencies, whereas digital depositories can be used to record crypto asset ownership and transactions, along with related rights to digital currencies.
There are currently five organizations, VTB and Atomyze among them, in Russia&#8217;s depository register.
Russia Opens Regulated Crypto Infrastructure to Banks
The registrations follow the introduction of Russia’s broader legal framework for digital currencies and digital rights, which took effect on September 1.
Under the framework, crypto transactions can use existing financial-market infrastructure, including brokers, exchanges and trustees, alongside newly authorized crypto exchanges and digital depositories.
Banks and other eligible organizations have been able to apply for the required registrations since October 5. Some established financial institutions can use a simplified notification process that may allow registration within one day.

Dec. 1 Could Mark a Bigger Crypto Expansion
Sberbank is not alone when it comes to getting ready to launch crypto services in December. It&#8217;s coming as Russia is in the midst of creating a central bank-regulated framework for crypto trading, custody, and other digital-asset services.
As an exchange and depository bank, Sberbank would have the opportunity to offer its users access to a trading service next to its custody and ownership-record business in the financial market.
The upcoming launch in December will serve as a significant milestone in the company&#8217;s broadened use of cryptocurrency in customer platforms.

The dearth of leadership at the CFTC is even more stark, with Michael Selig serving as the only Senate-confirmed chair and commissioner since December 2025. The agencies are intended to each have five commissioners.Read more]]></description><link>https://coinsnews.com/how-the-secs-lack-of-leadership-could-facilitate-crypto-rulemaking</link><guid>901216</guid><author>COINS NEWS</author><dc:content >https://s3-images.ctmedia.io/media/article-covers/2026/10/01M4TVYVZ1FNMZJVJ3R95B1ES5/sec-meeting-edited.png</dc:content ><dc:text>How the SEC’s lack of leadership could facilitate crypto rulemaking </dc:text></item><item><title>Google Brings Gemini 4 Argon to Consumer App for AI Pro and Ultra Subscribers</title><description><![CDATA[Google announced October 13, 2026 that Gemini 4 Argon is now available in the Gemini app for Google AI Pro and Ultra subscribers, featuring frontier reasoning and agentic coding capabilities.
