  2. Crypto Markets Open 24/7: No Holiday Pause

    Crypto Markets
    As traditional stock markets in the U.S. and Europe close their doors for Good Friday on April 18, the crypto markets remain open 24/7, highlighting one of the key advantages of digital asset trading.

While exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange and the London Stock Exchange observe public holidays, cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) continue trading around the clock—without exception.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This uninterrupted trading access has become a defining feature of the crypto economy, providing investors with continuous flexibility, instant liquidity, and the ability to respond to real-time global events even when traditional markets are paused.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Crypto Markets Stay Open 24/7</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The crypto markets’ 24/7 accessibility is made possible by blockchain technology, which is decentralized and doesn’t rely on a central authority to function. Unlike stock markets that operate during set trading hours and close on weekends and holidays, crypto assets are powered by networks of global computers running nonstop.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This infrastructure allows crypto exchanges like Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN) and Binance to facilitate trades at any time—day or night—regardless of local business hours. For many investors, this round-the-clock operation is more aligned with today’s fast-moving global economy.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Benefits of 24/7 Crypto Markets</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The ability to trade anytime gives crypto investors several advantages:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Real-time market reactions: Crypto traders can instantly respond to breaking news, earnings announcements, or geopolitical events—even outside regular trading hours.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Inflation hedging: In times of economic uncertainty, like during recent inflationary cycles or the ongoing U.S.-China tariff tensions, crypto offers a way to reallocate capital quickly.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Global access: With no centralized closing bell, investors from any country can participate without being restricted by time zones or holiday schedules.</span>&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For example, when traditional markets are closed for Good Friday, traders may still adjust their positions in Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) or Solana (CRYPTO:SOL), reacting to global developments without missing a beat.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crypto’s Appeal During Market Closures</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Market closures like Good Friday offer a stark reminder of how different the traditional and crypto worlds operate. On holidays, while major indices like the NASDAQ Composite (NASDAQ:IXIC) and the S&amp;P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX) remain static, the crypto markets keep moving, often becoming more volatile due to lighter trading volumes and higher retail activity.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For active traders, this presents unique opportunities. Price swings during holidays can lead to profitable trades or strategic entries and exits that wouldn&#8217;t be possible in the stock market until after the holiday.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Additionally, for long-term investors, the open nature of <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/barry-silbert-crypto-views-only-a-few-coins-will-survive/">crypto</a> means they can rebalance portfolios or initiate positions at their convenience—not just during preset hours.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Risks of 24/7 Crypto Trading</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While crypto markets open 24/7 provide unmatched flexibility, this constant access comes with risks. The lack of downtime can lead to investor burnout, and round-the-clock volatility may trigger emotional trading decisions. Furthermore, scams and hacks can happen at any time, making it crucial for traders to use secure platforms and follow best practices for protecting digital assets.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Still, for those who understand the landscape and manage their risk, the benefits often outweigh the downsides.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Glimpse Into the Financial Future</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The idea of financial markets that never sleep may seem futuristic, but it’s already a reality in the crypto world. The model of crypto markets open 24/7 reflects the growing demand for seamless, borderless financial participation.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As traditional finance continues to evolve, it’s possible we’ll see greater integration between these two worlds. Until then, cryptocurrency offers a unique advantage: staying open when others close—offering global financial opportunities, even on holidays.</span></p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>
  3. Barry Silbert Crypto Views: Only a Few Coins Will Survive

    In a candid interview on The Journeyman podcast with financial strategist Raoul Pal, Barry Silbert—the founder of Digital Currency Group—delivered a jarring assessment of the crypto industry.

According to Silbert, 99.9% of cryptocurrency tokens are worthless, offering no real value to the ecosystem. His statement sent shockwaves through the crypto world, igniting fresh debate on which digital assets truly have staying power.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These Barry Silbert crypto views carry weight. As one of the earliest institutional investors in Bitcoin, his voice resonates across the blockchain industry. Silbert, who began investing in Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) when it was trading at just $7 back in 2011, has witnessed every stage of the crypto market&#8217;s evolution—from fringe tech experiment to trillion-dollar asset class.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Most Crypto Tokens Are Doomed, Says Barry Silbert</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Silbert explained that, despite his fascination with the innovation in the space, he has become increasingly skeptical of new tokens. &#8220;I’ve always been intellectually curious about everything else that&#8217;s coming out of our space. But for the most part, 99.9% of crypto tokens that are out there have no reason to exist and are worthless,&#8221; he said.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">His crypto investment philosophy has shifted over time. Initially, he was drawn to Bitcoin for its disruptive potential. But after experiencing several boom-and-bust cycles, Silbert began focusing on investing in the infrastructure surrounding Bitcoin and blockchain tech rather than individual coins.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">&#8220;Had I just held on to the Bitcoin, I actually would have done better than making those investments,&#8221; Silbert admitted. Still, his perspective offers a warning: the majority of tokens being hyped today may fade into obscurity.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Privacy Coins Still Catch Barry Silbert’s Eye</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While Barry Silbert remains pessimistic about most of the crypto market, he’s still bullish on privacy-focused digital currencies like Zcash (CRYPTO:ZEC). These coins have lost significant ground over the past few years, but Silbert believes they fill a vital niche. “People are going to realize financial privacy is important to them. There’s a version of Bitcoin that’s private,” he noted, referring to Zcash and other similar projects.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This view aligns with the broader concerns about digital surveillance and the potential for overreach by governments and corporations. In Silbert’s eyes, privacy coins may still have a role in the decentralized future, even if the broader market continues to shrink.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Lessons from Silbert’s Crypto Journey</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Barry Silbert’s early journey with Bitcoin is a textbook lesson in market psychology. At one point, he believed he had made a brilliant investment, only to later worry it was a mistake after the price plunged. Yet, as the asset recovered and soared to new highs, he doubled down—not just on Bitcoin, but on companies building around it.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">His takeaway? Sometimes, the simplest investment is the most profitable one. While Silbert backed companies like Ripple and others building crypto infrastructure, he confessed that simply holding Bitcoin would’ve yielded higher returns.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">It’s a rare moment of transparency from one of the crypto space’s most influential figures and reinforces his broader message: focus on the few strong players, and ignore the noise.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Future of Crypto Through Silbert’s Lens</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Barry Silbert’s crypto views offer a stark reality check in a market flooded with new tokens and speculative hype. He believes that most of today’s <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/tether-expands-reach-with-crypto-payments-app-investment/">cryptocurrencies</a> will not stand the test of time—and history may prove him right. However, his optimism about Bitcoin and select privacy coins shows that there’s still meaningful innovation and value in the space—just not where many expect to find it.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">For investors navigating the volatile crypto market, Silbert’s insights are a reminder to look beyond hype and evaluate digital assets with a critical eye. While 99.9% of tokens may be worthless, the remaining 0.1% could define the future of finance.</span></p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik @ produtizebro</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

  6. Trump Eyes Tariffs to Fund Bitcoin Strategic Reserve

    Tue, 15 Apr 2025 19:58:21 -0000

    Bitcoin
    The idea of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve is gaining traction inside Donald Trump’s digital assets advisory council, with a controversial funding method on the table—tariffs. Bo Hines, executive director of the newly formed council, floated the proposal during a recent interview with crypto podcaster Anthony Pompliano. His remarks suggest that the White House may be … Continue reading "Trump Eyes Tariffs to Fund Bitcoin Strategic Reserve"

Bo Hines, executive director of the newly formed council, floated the proposal during a recent interview with crypto podcaster Anthony Pompliano. His remarks suggest that the White House may be seeking creative ways to amass Bitcoin without tapping into taxpayer dollars.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tariffs as a Crypto-Funding Tool</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">“We’re looking at many creative ways—whether it be from tariffs, whether it be from something else,” Hines said. His comments came in response to questions about how the United States could afford to buy Bitcoin at scale.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Hines also emphasized the goal is to “acquire as much as we can get” of the world’s leading digital asset. However, he was clear that the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve must not become a financial burden on the American public. The idea, according to Hines, is to fund Bitcoin purchases through indirect means, such as tariff revenue, rather than direct public spending.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Birth of the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Donald Trump first unveiled the concept of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve at the Bitcoin Conference in 2024. The initiative became more formal in early March 2025, when he signed an executive order establishing both the Bitcoin Strategic Reserve and a broader U.S. digital asset stockpile.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At this stage, neither entity has started buying crypto outright. Instead, the focus has been on consolidating digital assets already seized by U.S. law enforcement and laying the groundwork for potential future acquisitions.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While the initial rollout appeared mostly symbolic, Hines’ comments suggest a more proactive phase could soon begin. The former president’s team is now exploring ways to grow these reserves through state-led purchases—financed creatively.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Political and Economic Ramifications</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The mention of tariffs as a funding mechanism comes amid a volatile period for global trade and markets. Trump’s fluctuating tariff regime has caused market uncertainty, especially in industries reliant on imported goods. Tariffs on basic items, such as clothing, could drive prices up by as much as 45%, according to NPR.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This strategy could serve a dual purpose: penalizing foreign exporters while funneling the proceeds into Bitcoin acquisitions. However, it raises questions about how such policies would affect U.S. consumers and trade relations globally.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">John Nahas, vice president of business development at Ava Labs, highlighted the ongoing tension: “The irony is you went from complete regulatory uncertainty to regulatory certainty. But now there’s general market and geopolitical uncertainty.”</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Broader Digital Asset Strategy</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The idea of a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve also signals a wider pivot in U.S. policy toward digital assets. While the Biden administration was known for its cautious regulatory stance, the Trump team is embracing a more assertive and strategic approach.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Under this model, the U.S. government could become an active player in the crypto space, not just a regulator. By investing in Bitcoin, the Trump administration would signal that it sees digital assets not merely as financial instruments, but as strategic economic assets—similar to gold or foreign currency reserves.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Such a move could have ripple effects across markets. Companies like Coinbase (NASDAQ:COIN), MicroStrategy (NASDAQ:MSTR), and even global financial players like Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA), which previously held Bitcoin on their balance sheets, may find new relevance if a national Bitcoin reserve becomes reality.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Final Thoughts</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The notion of funding a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve through tariffs may sound unconventional, but it aligns with Trump’s broader political style—bold, nationalistic, and disruptive. Whether the plan moves forward depends on political will and economic feasibility. But one thing is clear: the United States is seriously exploring how digital assets can play a role in its financial and geopolitical strategy.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With Trump’s team openly seeking ways to build crypto reserves without dipping into taxpayer funds, the era of state-backed <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/bitcoin-price-struggles-continue-amid-market-uncertainty/">Bitcoin</a> accumulation may be just beginning.</span></p> <p><i>Featured Image:  Freepik © starline</i></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>
  7. Tether Expands Reach With Crypto Payments App Investment

    Tue, 15 Apr 2025 19:18:37 -0000

    crypto payments
    Tether, the issuer of the world’s most popular stablecoin USDT, has made another big move—this time in the crypto payments app space. The company recently announced an investment in Hong Kong-based startup Fizen, a self-described “super app” that enables users to perform everyday transactions using cryptocurrencies. This marks Tether’s third major investment in 2025, reflecting … Continue reading "Tether Expands Reach With Crypto Payments App Investment"

The company recently announced an investment in Hong Kong-based startup Fizen, a self-described “super app” that enables users to perform everyday transactions using cryptocurrencies. This marks Tether’s third major investment in 2025, reflecting its growing appetite for strategic bets in digital finance.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fizen: A Super App for Crypto Utility</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fizen aims to simplify how consumers interact with cryptocurrencies. Rather than focusing on speculative trading, the crypto payments app allows users to pay for daily needs like mobile phone top-ups and movie tickets using crypto. The platform is designed to run seamlessly in the background, making it so intuitive that users may not even realize they are interacting with blockchain technology.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Leo Vu, CEO and founder of Fizen, said in a statement, “The technology infrastructure is already in place. We lack consumer-friendly applications.” Fizen’s goal is to bridge that gap—bringing crypto into the real world, without the technical friction.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tether’s Strategic Shift Toward Practical Crypto Solutions</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tether’s investment strategy has taken a clear turn toward practical, utility-driven ventures. While the firm made headlines earlier this year for unconventional moves—like its acquisition of a stake in Italian football club Juventus (BIT:JUVE) and a $385 million bid for a South American farming company—its latest decision re-aligns with its crypto roots.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In March, Tether also took a 30% stake in media firm Be Water, further diversifying its holdings. But with Fizen, the focus is squarely back on crypto payments apps, signaling a renewed interest in supporting technologies that drive real-world blockchain adoption.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Paolo Ardoino, CEO of Tether, stated, “Our investment in Fizen underscores our commitment to expanding global access to efficient and reliable digital financial solutions.”</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stablecoin Powerhouse</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the issuer of USDT, Tether dominates the stablecoin market, with $145 billion in circulation. That’s roughly 62% of the total market share. With reserves that generated $13 billion in profits in 2024 alone, the company has significant firepower for further expansion.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These profits are now being redirected into strategic ventures that align with Tether’s long-term vision: mass adoption of crypto in everyday life. The crypto payments app space, with its focus on functionality and ease of use, is a natural fit.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Fizen’s Backers and Business Model</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Other investors in Fizen include blockchain development firm Sotatek, software company VNext, and layer-1 blockchain platform Viction (formerly TomoChain). Fizen’s previous funding came from token sales, although it is unclear whether Tether’s stake was in the form of equity, tokens, or a hybrid deal.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The entry of Tether into this investor pool adds credibility and financial muscle to Fizen’s expansion plans. The startup now has a powerful partner capable of accelerating its product development and market reach.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Rise of Crypto Payment Infrastructure</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tether’s move comes amid a broader trend in financial technology. Earlier this year, U.S.-based crypto exchange Kraken launched Kraken Pay, a service offering payments in both crypto and fiat. UK fintech giant Revolut introduced a crypto payments card in 2024, and companies like Galaxy Ventures have predicted that payment infrastructure will become one of crypto’s most important battlegrounds.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As digital assets mature, the emphasis is shifting from trading and speculation to practical, everyday utility. The <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/crypto-com-integrates-paypal-for-crypto-payments-in-eu/">crypto payments</a> app model embodies this transformation.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Final Thoughts</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tether’s investment in Fizen illustrates a growing focus on bringing crypto into mainstream use through seamless and practical applications. With strategic capital behind it and a rapidly evolving sector ahead, Fizen could become a leading name in how consumers interact with digital money—without even knowing they’re using crypto.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As more fintech and blockchain firms follow suit, expect the line between traditional and digital finance to blur even further.</span></p> <p><i>Featured Image:  Freepik © ruslan_ivantsov</i></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

The newly published roadmap reflects a pragmatic yet visionary path forward, signaling the company&#8217;s commitment to delivering scalable, compliant, and accessible <span>crypto</span>-financial services worldwide.</p> <p><b>Regulatory-First Growth on Ramp: Korea, <span class="xn-location">Australia</span>, and Beyond</b></p> <p>Alchemy Pay&#8217;s fiat-<span>crypto</span> ramp service currently supports over 50 fiat currencies and 100+ mainstream <span>cryptocurrencies</span>, serving 3 million users across 173 countries and regions. With foundational licenses secured—including Electronic Financial Business Registration in <span class="xn-location">South Korea</span> and Digital Currency Exchange Provider (DCEP) registration in Australia—the company is preparing for an aggressive expansion in both markets throughout 2025.</p> <p>These developments position Alchemy Pay as one of the few platforms with end-to-end fiat-<span>crypto</span> payment capabilities under robust regulatory frameworks. The upcoming deep collaborations with leading centralized exchanges are expected to deliver region-specific, compliant ramp solutions and further solidify Alchemy Pay&#8217;s leadership in high-growth markets.</p> <p>Simultaneously, the company will continue building strategic alliances with prominent wallets, public chains, and <span>decentralized</span> exchanges (DEXs) to embed fiat-<span>crypto</span> services into mainstream <span>crypto</span> user flows.</p> <p><b>From Payment Gateway to RWA-Enabled Global Financial Hub</b></p> <p><u><a href="https://alchemypay.org/rwa" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Alchemy Pay</a></u> is further evolving into a broader financial services platform by integrating tokenized real-world assets into its ecosystem. From U.S. Treasury bonds to publicly traded equities, RWAs are becoming the next frontier of <span>decentralized</span> finance. The company is actively forming strategic partnerships with top-tier RWA providers to make such assets accessible to a wider user base through regulated and compliant channels.</p> <p>The goal is to bridge traditional finance and <span>crypto</span> economies, offering users access to both worlds from a unified portal. The support of RWA is architecting a more inclusive financial gateway that enables global participation in qualified RWA investments, positioning Alchemy Pay not merely as a payment platform but as a cornerstone of the emerging digital financial architecture—a transformation that promises to capture exponential market growth as this revolution unfolds. This shift positions Alchemy Pay as a key player in democratizing investment opportunities while maintaining the highest standards in regulatory compliance and security.</p> <p><b>Alchemy Chain as a Global <span>Stablecoin</span> Ecosystem</b></p> <p>Stablecoins are playing an increasingly critical role in global finance, and Alchemy Pay is building the infrastructure to match. In 2025, Alchemy Chain will evolve into a public blockchain purpose-built around global and local stablecoins transactions and payments. This ecosystem will enable seamless cross-border value transfer and unify fragmented <span>stablecoin</span> markets under a single, interoperable framework.</p> <p>By aggregating the liquidity of leading stablecoins such as USDT and USDC across blockchain networks and enabling efficient conversion to local stablecoins and fiat currencies, Alchemy Chain aims to create a globally scalable infrastructure for real-time, low-cost financial transactions.</p> <p>A key goal in compliance in 2025 will include the acquisition of both digital currency and cross-border remittance licenses under a unified Australian regulatory framework, making Alchemy Pay the only provider in the region with dual licensing for <span>stablecoin</span>-powered remittance services. Alchemy Pay&#8217;s extensive global payment network and licensing momentum provide a strong foundation for Alchemy Chain&#8217;s growth, while the native $ACH token will continue to serve as the network&#8217;s gas fee token, reinforcing its utility across the ecosystem.</p> <p>As stablecoins increasingly become the trendiest direction of global finance in 2025, Alchemy Chain stands ready to orchestrate their harmonious integration into a new financial paradigm, one where value flows as freely as information in the digital age. More technical details on its development are scheduled for unveiling in <span class="xn-chron">April 2025</span>.</p> <p><b>Toward AI-Powered Payments</b></p> <p>Alchemy Pay is also preparing for the next evolution in intelligent commerce. As AI agents grow in sophistication, the ability to independently execute financial transactions becomes essential. The company is actively developing an AI-native payment infrastructure that allows intelligent agents to carry out user-initiated payments and transactions seamlessly.</p> <p>This initiative represents a forward-looking investment in the convergence of AI and financial technology, with the aim of establishing Alchemy Pay as a foundational payment layer for the emerging AI agent economy.</p> <p><b>Looking Ahead</b></p> <p>The 2025 roadmap underscores Alchemy Pay&#8217;s long-term strategy to reshape global finance by enabling compliant, user-centric, and intelligent access to digital and traditional financial assets. As the company transitions from a fiat-<span>crypto</span> gateway to a comprehensive financial hub, it continues to drive forward industry standards in licensing, integration, and innovation.</p> <p>For more information and updates, follow Alchemy Pay on <u><a href="https://twitter.com/alchemypay" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">X</a></u>, join the community on <u><a href="https://t.me/alchemy_official" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Telegram</a></u> and <u><a href="https://discord.gg/alchemypay" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Discord</a></u>, or visit <u><a href="https://alchemypay.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Alchemy Pay&#8217;s official website</a></u>.</p> <p><b>About Alchemy Pay</b></p> <p>Founded in <span class="xn-location">Singapore</span> in 2017, Alchemy Pay is a payment gateway that seamlessly connects <span>crypto</span> with traditional fiat currencies for businesses, developers, and end users.

This groundbreaking project is turning idle meme coins into yield-generating assets, attracting massive attention from investors. Could CartelFi be 2025’s biggest moonshot crypto? Let’s dive into why this innovative approach is capturing the spotlight.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">CartelFi: Turning Meme Coins into Money Printers</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cryptocurrencies are constantly evolving, and CartelFi is bringing a fresh perspective to the market. By transforming idle meme coins into 24/7 income-generating assets, CartelFi has ignited significant interest. Memecoins, often seen as speculative assets with no inherent utility, are now being leveraged in a new way.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This innovation comes at a time when many crypto investors are looking for ways to gain passive yield without having to sell off their favorite tokens. CartelFi addresses this problem by allowing users to deposit their meme coins into custom-built liquidity pools within CartelFi’s Vaults, offering up to 10,000% annual percentage yield (APY) through single-sided staking. This unique model lets investors retain 100% price exposure while generating income from their tokens. The best part? Investors can still hold onto their memes and wait for that potential 100x, but now their assets are working for them.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Deflationary Tokenomics Model: The Buyback Engine</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">CartelFi’s dual-model approach is a key reason behind the growing excitement surrounding the project. Along with the liquidity pools, CartelFi features a relentless buyback engine that utilizes up to 100% of platform fees to purchase CARTFI tokens. Half of these tokens are then burned, creating a deflationary effect. This model, referred to as “programmed scarcity” in CartelFi’s whitepaper, ensures that the token supply continuously shrinks, creating upward pressure on its value.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The more meme liquidity that enters the system, the greater the buybacks become. As the supply of CARTFI decreases, the demand increases. This creates a flywheel of scarcity that intensifies with every trade, stake, or swap. If CartelFi captures just 1% of the $40 billion memecoin market, the resulting $400 million in total value locked (TVL) could lead to millions in daily buy pressure for CARTFI token holders.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bridging Memes and DeFi</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Memecoins have long been viewed as speculative, with little to no real-world utility. However, CartelFi is changing the narrative by giving memes a purpose. For the first time, meme tokens are being transformed into yield-generating assets that can provide returns to holders. This innovative approach effectively monetizes memecoins, allowing users to make money while they sleep, as famously stated by Warren Buffett.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">CartelFi applies this principle to the most chaotic corner of the crypto space, elevating meme coins from being “dumb money” to becoming intelligent capital. By offering a mechanism to create value from what was once a joke, CartelFi is bridging the gap between the fun side of crypto and serious financial mechanics. This shift could have far-reaching implications for the entire meme sector, which has historically been seen as volatile and unproductive.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why CartelFi Could Outperform Every Meme Token in 2025</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The CartelFi tokenomics model is one of the most exciting aspects of the project. Unlike other <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/investing-news/solana-plummets-30-as/">altcoins</a> that typically inflate supply to reward insiders, CartelFi’s buyback and burn mechanics ensure that every interaction within the platform benefits the token holders. This approach ensures that value continuously flows back to investors, making CartelFi a compelling investment opportunity.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With its presale raising $500k in just one day, the demand for CartelFi is undeniable. As CartelFi continues to innovate and attract meme liquidity, it is poised to become a standout project in the crypto world. By combining institutional-style yield mechanics with the power of memecoins, CartelFi is set to kickstart another wave of meme mania.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In conclusion, the potential for CartelFi to become the next big thing in the crypto space is significant. With its deflationary tokenomics, unique yield-generation model, and the ongoing surge in presale interest, CartelFi is positioned to make a major impact in 2025.</span></p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik @ produtizebro</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

As global demand for efficient, low-cost payment solutions increases, the future of XRP (XRP) looks bright. Let’s dive into the current trends and predictions surrounding XRP, and also explore how Remittix (RTX) is emerging as a promising contender in the crypto space.</p> <h2 data-start="740" data-end="791">XRP Price Prediction: A Look at 2025&#8217;s Forecast</h2> <p class="" data-start="793" data-end="1196">XRP (XRP) is currently trading at around $1.89, showing a steady rise of over 5% in the past 24 hours. The latest XRP price prediction is generating excitement, with many experts suggesting the cryptocurrency could reach as high as $4.26 by April 2025. This prediction reflects a potential ROI of approximately 124.08%, a figure that is attracting significant attention from traders and investors alike.</p> <p class="" data-start="1198" data-end="1578">Some analysts are more conservative, suggesting the price could stabilize at around $2.62, while others anticipate an average value of $3.64 over the coming months. While the bullish XRP price prediction fuels optimism, it’s important to remember that such forecasts are subject to market fluctuations and external factors like regulatory developments or broader economic trends.</p> <p class="" data-start="1580" data-end="1772">Despite these uncertainties, XRP’s track record as a leader in the world of cross-border payments continues to fuel investor confidence, contributing to a positive outlook in the months ahead.</p> <h2 data-start="1774" data-end="1824">The Role of Remittix (RTX) in the Crypto Space</h2> <p class="" data-start="1826" data-end="2256">As XRP grabs attention with its strong price predictions, a new player, Remittix (RTX), is quietly making waves in the market. This innovative project, which has already raised over $14.4 million in its presale phase, is drawing interest for its practical approach to cross-border remittance solutions. Remittix (RTX) aims to simplify the process of sending money internationally by significantly reducing fees and transfer times.</p> <p class="" data-start="2258" data-end="2608">With its current token price of $0.0734, Remittix (RTX) has sold over 527 million tokens, signaling strong investor demand. The project’s PayFi model, which allows users to convert cryptocurrency to fiat and deposit funds directly into bank accounts within 24 hours, has resonated with many who seek real-world applications for blockchain technology.</p> <h2 data-start="2610" data-end="2662">Why Remittix (RTX) Could Outshine Other Altcoins</h2> <p class="" data-start="2664" data-end="3010">The appeal of Remittix lies in its practical utility. Unlike many altcoins driven by speculative hype, Remittix focuses on solving real-world financial problems. Its streamlined process allows users to avoid high transfer fees and lengthy delays, making it an attractive option for individuals and businesses that need efficient global payments.</p> <p class="" data-start="3012" data-end="3392">As global remittance markets continue to grow, Remittix (RTX) has the potential to become a major player in the crypto payment space. The project’s focus on everyday financial challenges sets it apart from many other projects, which may prioritize speculative value over practical use cases. For investors seeking long-term value, Remittix (RTX) presents a compelling opportunity.</p> <h2 data-start="3394" data-end="3438">Conclusion: A Dual Opportunity in Crypto</h2> <p class="" data-start="3440" data-end="3730">While the <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/xrp-price-crash-looms-amid-technical-and-economic-pressures/">XRP price</a> prediction for 2025 offers the possibility of substantial gains, it’s important to remember that the cryptocurrency market is volatile, and predictions should be viewed with caution. Still, XRP’s position as a leader in cross-border payments suggests a promising future.</p> <p class="" data-start="3732" data-end="4219">At the same time, Remittix (RTX) is offering a fresh, practical approach that has caught the attention of large investors. By focusing on real-world utility, Remittix (RTX) could become a serious contender in the payment sector, appealing to those seeking stability and tangible benefits in the crypto space. Whether you’re drawn to the explosive potential of XRP (XRP) or the grounded value of Remittix (RTX), both offer unique opportunities in the evolving world of digital currencies.</p> <p>Explore both XRP&#8217;s potential for explosive growth and Remittix&#8217;s practical utility.</p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

This move marks a significant step in making crypto payments accessible to a broader audience and bridging the gap between traditional finance and the fast-growing digital asset market. The integration aims to simplify the purchasing process for millions of European users looking to explore or expand their presence in the crypto space.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bridging Traditional Finance with Digital Assets</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The new PayPal integration allows Crypto.com users in the EU to use their PayPal accounts for cryptocurrency purchases. This feature is designed to reduce friction for users who may hesitate to link a traditional bank account or use a credit card directly for crypto transactions. By leveraging PayPal, which is widely recognized and trusted for online payments, Crypto.com hopes to make the process of entering the crypto market more seamless and less intimidating for everyday users.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Many users are still cautious about engaging with digital currencies, often because they’re unfamiliar with the processes involved. By offering a familiar and secure payment method like PayPal, Crypto.com is addressing these concerns, making it easier for people to buy and invest in cryptocurrencies without needing to understand the complexities of traditional banking methods.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">PayPal Expands Its Role in Digital Assets</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) has been increasingly involved in the world of digital assets, expanding its crypto offerings in recent years. This includes enabling users in select markets to buy, sell, and transfer cryptocurrencies through their PayPal accounts. The integration with Crypto.com is part of PayPal’s broader strategy to promote cryptocurrency adoption and usage globally.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition to supporting transactions in popular digital currencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), PayPal has also launched its own stablecoin, PayPal USD (PYUSD), which is backed by U.S. dollar reserves. This stablecoin is designed to provide a stable medium of exchange for PayPal’s global user base, and it has been integrated into PayPal’s services, including international transfers via Xoom, a PayPal-owned platform. The move to bring PayPal payments to Crypto.com’s EU users highlights the growing influence of PayPal in the digital asset ecosystem.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crypto.com’s Strategic Expansion</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Crypto.com, a prominent player in the crypto exchange space, continues to expand its services globally while navigating a challenging regulatory environment. The company recently received a significant boost when the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) decided not to take any enforcement action against the exchange following a lengthy investigation. This decision comes at a time when Crypto.com has been pushing to extend its services to new markets and improve its platform’s user experience.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Nick Lundgren, the Chief Legal Officer at Crypto.com, commented on the SEC decision, stating, “Under the previous administration, the SEC weaponized and attempted to expand its congressionally granted power in order to harm an industry that its former chair disfavored.” The company’s focus now is on strengthening its presence in regions like the EU and continuing to innovate in the cryptocurrency space.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Future of Crypto Payments in the EU</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The integration of PayPal payments into Crypto.com’s platform is a significant milestone for both companies. As digital currencies gain more mainstream acceptance, the move provides an easier entry point for EU users looking to interact with the crypto market. This integration not only benefits consumers but also signals a shift toward the mainstream acceptance of cryptocurrencies as a legitimate form of payment and investment.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The success of this feature will likely prompt other exchanges to explore similar partnerships, making <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/samsung-pay-expands-crypto-payments-with-alchemy-pay-partnership/">crypto payments</a> more integrated into the global financial system. As PayPal continues to expand its crypto services, and as more countries develop regulatory frameworks for digital assets, the relationship between traditional finance and cryptocurrency will only deepen. The new feature could serve as a model for future collaborations between the crypto and traditional finance sectors, leading to greater innovation and broader adoption.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Conclusion</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With PayPal’s involvement in crypto transactions now extended to Crypto.com users in the EU, the bridge between traditional finance and digital assets has grown even stronger. This new integration simplifies the purchasing process and encourages more people to explore the world of cryptocurrency. As more companies, like PayPal, take steps to expand their crypto offerings, the market will likely continue to mature, offering users easier and more secure ways to engage with digital assets.</span></p> <p><i>Featured Image:  Freepik © ruslan_ivantsov</i></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>
  23. Crypto Executives Lobby Congress for Stablecoin Interest

    Thu, 03 Apr 2025 20:13:21 -0000

    stablecoin
    The debate surrounding stablecoin regulation has reached new heights as several crypto executives are pushing Congress to allow stablecoin issuers to pay interest on their U.S. dollar-pegged tokens. This proposal has ignited heated discussions among lawmakers, financial institutions, and crypto industry leaders alike. What Are Stablecoins? Stablecoins are digital assets pegged to stable assets, such … Continue reading "Crypto Executives Lobby Congress for Stablecoin Interest"

This proposal has ignited heated discussions among lawmakers, financial institutions, and crypto industry leaders alike.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">What Are Stablecoins?</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stablecoins are digital assets pegged to stable assets, such as the U.S. dollar, to minimize volatility. They are widely used for transactions within the crypto space and serve as an alternative to traditional banking systems. Stablecoin issuers hold large reserves, often in U.S. Treasury bonds or other cash equivalents, to maintain the peg to the dollar.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Currently, these issuers generate interest from their holdings but do not share the returns with token holders. Instead, the interest earned remains within the issuing companies. The crypto executives advocating for change argue that it’s unfair for crypto firms to be excluded from offering interest payments while traditional banks do so for their depositors.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Proposal: Paying Interest on Stablecoins</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Proponents of the proposal believe that stablecoin issuers should be allowed to share the interest they earn with token holders. One prominent voice in this push is Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong, who has criticized the government’s stance on the issue. Armstrong stated, &#8220;The government shouldn’t put its thumb on the scale to benefit one industry over another,&#8221; highlighting the need for equal treatment between the banking and crypto sectors.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">By offering interest, stablecoin issuers could create a new incentive for users to hold digital assets, which could, in turn, encourage broader adoption of cryptocurrencies. This move could potentially open the door for new financial innovations within the crypto space, making stablecoins more competitive with traditional banking products.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Concerns From the Banking Sector</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Opponents of allowing interest payments on stablecoins argue that this could disrupt the traditional banking system. The American Bankers Association has voiced significant concerns, suggesting that paying interest on stablecoins could lead to the migration of deposits away from regulated financial institutions, thus destabilizing the banking system.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The banking sector’s main fear is that the ability of crypto companies to pay interest could attract a large number of consumers, diverting capital from banks. This could limit the banks&#8217; ability to provide loans and other financial services, potentially reducing their ability to act as the backbone of the economy. Furthermore, there is concern that such a move could place taxpayers at risk of bearing the costs of any financial losses should stablecoins face issues with liquidity or other risks.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stablecoin Regulation: Congressional Bills</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As the stablecoin regulation debate intensifies, Congress is actively considering bills that would establish a regulatory framework for stablecoins. However, these bills have varied approaches to the issue of interest payments.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The House Financial Services Committee approved a bill on April 2, 2025, that would explicitly prohibit stablecoin issuers from paying interest. This bill seeks to maintain the traditional role of banks in offering financial products and services. Conversely, a bill that passed through the Senate Banking Committee in March 2025 is less clear on this issue, with the <a href="https://www.reuters.com/practical-law-the-journal/government/introduction-genius-act-stablecoin-bill-2025-03-01/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">GENIUS Act</a> (Growing the Economy with New and Innovative Uses of Stablecoins) being on a fast track for approval due to its bipartisan support.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite the differences in the bills, both sides agree that stablecoin regulation is essential for ensuring the stability of the crypto market. However, the inclusion of interest payments as part of this regulatory framework remains a contentious point that will likely continue to be debated in the coming months.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Future of Stablecoin Regulation</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The push for stablecoin issuers to pay interest highlights the evolving nature of cryptocurrency regulation. As the market for digital assets grows, regulatory bodies face increasing pressure to adapt traditional financial rules to accommodate these new technologies. The debate over interest payments underscores the growing importance of stablecoins in the financial ecosystem.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As Congress continues to review the bills and stakeholders on both sides present their arguments, the future of <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/the-us-stablecoin-market-gains-momentum/#google_vignette">stablecoin</a> regulation will shape the broader crypto landscape. Should interest payments be allowed, it could mark a significant shift in how digital assets are integrated into the global financial system.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Ultimately, the resolution of this debate will have long-lasting implications for the stability and growth of both the crypto and traditional banking sectors.</span></p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

    crypto investment
    Cryptocurrencies have evolved from speculative assets to a legitimate investment class. However, investing in digital assets requires a well-structured crypto investment strategy to balance risk and reward.

However, investing in digital assets requires a well-structured crypto investment strategy to balance risk and reward. While Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) and Ethereum (CRYPTO:ETH) dominate the market, diversification across multiple cryptocurrencies can enhance portfolio stability.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Financial firms like WisdomTree (NYSE:WT) have recognized this trend, offering exchange-traded products (ETPs) to provide diversified exposure to digital assets. By integrating a crypto investment strategy, investors can minimize volatility while capturing the sector’s growth.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Role of Crypto Indices in Portfolio Diversification</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A strong crypto investment strategy includes exposure to multiple digital assets rather than relying solely on Bitcoin. Investors traditionally diversify equity and bond portfolios, and the same principle applies to cryptocurrencies. The CoinDesk 20 index, often compared to the S&amp;P 500 for crypto, allows investors to track a broad selection of digital assets.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">WisdomTree’s latest ETP, based on the CoinDesk 20, provides investors with a practical and diversified way to engage with the crypto market. This approach removes the complexity of selecting individual tokens while ensuring exposure to the broader digital asset ecosystem.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trends in Crypto Adoption and Market Growth</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cryptocurrency adoption has surged globally, with institutional investors incorporating digital assets into their portfolios. The total crypto market capitalization has reached approximately $3 trillion, rivaling traditional investment sectors like high-yield bonds and emerging market equities.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">While the United States leads in crypto regulation, Europe has been a pioneer in providing investment solutions such as ETPs. Since 2019, firms like WisdomTree have enabled investors to access crypto markets through structured financial products, enhancing accessibility and security.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Staking and Yield-Generating Crypto Investments</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">A comprehensive crypto investment strategy should also consider yield-generating opportunities such as staking. Certain crypto ETPs allow investors to participate in network governance while earning staking rewards.

It found that<a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/crypto-adoption-soars-in-2024-growing-by-13-worldwide/"> crypto adoption</a> in the U.S. spans various demographics:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">67% of crypto holders are under 45, but 15% are over 55.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">31% of holders are women, breaking the stereotype that cryptocurrency is male-dominated.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">12% of holders work in construction, compared to 7% in financial services.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">42% of crypto owners earn more than $150,000 annually, but 26% make under $75,000.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">40% hold less than $5,000 in digital assets, showing that crypto isn&#8217;t just for wealthy investors.</span>&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Stuart Alderoty, President of the NCA, emphasized that crypto adoption in the U.S. is not limited to a single type of person. “People from all backgrounds are engaging with crypto in many ways, and they’re already benefiting from it today,” he stated.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">High Trust in Crypto and the Role of Regulation</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Despite concerns about volatility and security, trust in cryptocurrency remains high among holders:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">76% trust crypto as much or more than traditional banks.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">64% support government regulation of crypto, but 67% fear it could stifle innovation.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">73% want the U.S. to become a global leader in crypto and blockchain technology.</span>&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">These findings suggest that while crypto holders recognize the need for regulation, they also want policies that encourage growth rather than limit adoption.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Americans Are Embracing Crypto</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The survey revealed that crypto provides value beyond investment returns. The top reasons for adoption include:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Learning opportunities and personal growth (45%)</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Excitement about new technology (45%)</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Sense of achievement from investment gains (44%)</span>&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">More than half (56%) of holders entered the market between 2020 and 2025.

Key expectations include:</span></p> <ul> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">45% believe crypto can improve financial inclusion and reduce poverty.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">38% see crypto driving innovation in digital transactions.</span>&nbsp;</li> <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">33% expect crypto to enhance international trade.</span>&nbsp;</li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">With growing adoption and strong optimism, the future of crypto in the U.S. looks promising. As regulations evolve and new use cases emerge, the digital asset economy is likely to expand even further.</span></p> <p>As cryptocurrency adoption in the U.S. continues to grow, the focus will likely shift toward improving accessibility, security, and education. With millions of Americans already using digital assets, businesses and financial institutions may increasingly integrate blockchain technology into their services. Additionally, regulatory clarity could help legitimize the industry and attract more mainstream investors. However, challenges remain, including cybersecurity risks and fluctuating market conditions. Despite these obstacles, the enthusiasm for digital assets suggests that crypto is here to stay. As innovation drives further adoption, the U.S. could cement its position as a leader in the global cryptocurrency landscape.</p> <p>Looking ahead, the role of crypto in everyday transactions, investment portfolios, and financial inclusion will likely expand. As more individuals and businesses embrace digital assets, education and regulation will play a crucial role in shaping the industry&#8217;s future. With growing awareness and adoption, cryptocurrency could become a fundamental part of the modern financial system.</p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik @ produtizebro</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

This requirement is part of President Donald Trump’s executive order signed on March 6, which established a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and a Digital Asset Stockpile. The order mandates that all federal agencies disclose the digital assets they hold as part of criminal or civil asset forfeiture proceedings.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Background on the Executive Order</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The executive order represents a significant development in the U.S. government’s involvement with digital assets. It directs the Treasury Department to create two separate reserves — one for Bitcoin (BTC) and one for other cryptocurrencies such as XRP (Ripple), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA). These assets will come from those seized during criminal investigations or forfeiture processes. According to David Sacks, the White House’s crypto czar, the U.S. government already holds approximately 200,000 Bitcoin, although a complete audit of these holdings has not been conducted to date.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">U.S. Government’s Crypto Holdings: What We Know</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As of April 1, 2025, the U.S. government is known to own 198,012 Bitcoin, valued at approximately $16.8 billion based on current market prices. This Bitcoin is part of the assets the government has acquired over the years through law enforcement actions. However, with the creation of the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve and the Digital Asset Stockpile, there is potential for these holdings to increase.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The Digital Asset Stockpile will not be limited to Bitcoin but will also include other major cryptocurrencies like XRP, Solana, and Cardano. President Trump has already indicated that these digital assets will be part of the reserve, potentially raising their profile and impact in the market. The federal agencies must report these holdings by April 5, providing a clearer picture of the U.S. government’s involvement with digital currencies.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">What Will the Disclosure Mean for the Market?</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Once federal agencies disclose their crypto holdings to the Treasury Secretary, it could have major implications for the cryptocurrency market. A more comprehensive view of the government&#8217;s digital asset reserves could lead to increased investor confidence, particularly in Bitcoin and the other cryptocurrencies listed in the executive order. If investors believe the U.S. government is increasingly backing these assets, it could provide a significant boost to their value.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">However, this move comes at a time when other economic concerns are weighing heavily on the markets. Although the<a href="https://www.fxempire.com/forecasts/article/the-cryptocurrency-markets-attempt-to-stabilise-1508427" target="_blank" rel="noopener"> cryptocurrency market</a> rebounded slightly on April 1, the overall market cap has declined by approximately 7% in the past week, currently sitting at $2.76 trillion. Concerns over President Trump’s pursuit of a global tariff war and the impact of broader economic policies have dampened market sentiment, affecting both traditional and digital asset markets.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">What’s Next for the U.S. Digital Asset Strategy?</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Looking forward, the U.S. government will not be acquiring additional Bitcoin for the Digital Asset Stockpile beyond what has already been seized. However, there are still opportunities for agencies to acquire more assets through forfeiture processes. The Treasury and Commerce Secretaries have been authorized to pursue strategies to acquire more digital assets, though any additional Bitcoin acquisition will not affect the current stockpile’s composition.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">This executive order could also lead to more comprehensive regulations for the crypto industry in the U.S. As the federal government becomes more involved with digital currencies, additional policies may emerge to govern their use, trading, and taxation. It’s clear that cryptocurrencies are becoming more intertwined with U.S. financial strategy, but how this will unfold remains to be seen.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Conclusion: A Turning Point for U.S. Crypto Holdings</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">The disclosure of U.S. crypto holdings by April 5 marks a crucial moment in the evolution of the nation’s relationship with digital assets. With Bitcoin, XRP, Solana, and Cardano poised to become part of the government’s stockpile, the spotlight is on these cryptocurrencies and how they will influence the broader market. As the world’s largest economy takes a more prominent role in <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/market-news/bitcoin-price-surge-nears-100k-amid-pro-crypto-policies/">crypto</a>, the sector could see a shift in how governments and investors view digital assets.</span></p> <p><i>Featured Image:  Freepik © freepik</i></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

This EO established the formation of a crypto working group, tasked with providing a comprehensive report on crypto regulations and stablecoins by July 2025. The EO also addressed the controversial topic of a U.S. dollar central bank digital currency (CBDC), with the administration opting to ban its creation. This move diverges sharply from global trends, where many countries are exploring the development of their own CBDCs.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Additionally, Trump ordered the creation of a national digital asset stockpile, which would include various cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum. In March, two additional EOs officially set up crypto reserves, solidifying the U.S. government’s position in the digital asset space.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Furthermore, the repeal of the Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 121 (SAB121) marked a significant victory for the crypto industry, especially for companies engaged in digital asset holdings. This regulatory change paves the way for greater clarity and less restrictive rules around digital assets.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">Key Appointments and Pro-Crypto Appointments</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trump made several high-profile appointments that further signaled his commitment to crypto reforms. Former PayPal executive David Sacks was appointed as the AI and Crypto Czar, tasked with overseeing the integration of digital assets into the U.S. economy. Meanwhile, Caroline Pham was named acting Chair of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), and Scott Bessent took on the role of Secretary of the Treasury. These appointments were instrumental in creating a pro-crypto environment in Washington.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Moreover, the appointment of Tim Scott as Chairman of the Senate Banking Committee allowed for the establishment of the Senate’s first-ever crypto-focused subcommittee. This subcommittee was led by Cynthia Lummis, a prominent advocate for Bitcoin (BTC), and marked the beginning of serious legislative efforts to explore crypto-related policies.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">February: SEC&#8217;s Crypto Reversal</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In February, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) made headlines with its reversal of previous regulatory stances. Once viewed as an opponent of cryptocurrency, the SEC began dismissing cases against major players like Binance, Coinbase, and Robinhood, signaling a shift in regulatory attitude. This is an encouraging sign for the industry, as the SEC’s actions laid the groundwork for a more open and friendly regulatory environment for crypto in the U.S.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">March: Strategic Bitcoin Reserve</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">March proved to be a landmark month for crypto developments under Trump’s administration. On March 6, the White House hosted the first-ever Crypto Summit, bringing together industry leaders, regulators, and policymakers to discuss the future of the U.S. crypto sector. At the summit, Trump unveiled plans to establish a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, capitalized by the 198,012 BTC that the U.S. government has seized over the years. This reserve would solidify the U.S.’s position as a major player in the crypto space.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Trump also signed another EO that created a U.S. Digital Asset Stockpile, expanding the nation’s crypto holdings to include not only Bitcoin but also other digital assets such as Ripple (XRP), Solana (SOL), and Cardano (ADA).</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">In addition, the reintroduction of the Digital Commodity Exchange Act (DCEA) sought to expand the remit of the CFTC in regulating crypto markets, providing clarity and consumer protection for digital assets traded in the U.S.</span></p> <h2><span style="font-weight: 400;">What to Expect in 2025</span></h2> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Looking ahead, 2025 promises to be a pivotal year for crypto in the U.S. With Paul Atkins still awaiting confirmation as the new SEC chair, progress on crypto legislation may slow temporarily. However, upcoming crypto roundtables will focus on decentralized finance (DeFi) and tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs), signaling continued innovation in the sector.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Overall, Trump’s efforts in Q1 2025 have set the stage for significant <a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/investing-news/why-is-bpifrance-investing-in-crypto/">crypto reforms</a>, ushering in a new era of digital currency adoption in the U.S. These bold initiatives signal a clear departure from the more cautious stance taken by the previous administration, potentially marking the beginning of a major shift in U.S. policy towards cryptocurrencies.</span></p> <p><em>Featured Image: Freepik @ produtizebro</em></p> <p><a href="https://cryptocurrencynews.com/disclaimer">Please See Disclaimer</a></p>

The report provides insights into macroeconomic developments, the state of crypto spot and derivatives markets, and emerging trading signals.</p> <p><b>Key insights</b></p> <p>Since bottoming out on <span class="xn-chron">March 11</span>, crypto asset prices have climbed steadily over a two-week period, with BTC briefly surpassing <span class="xn-money">$87,000</span> and ETH recovering above <span class="xn-money">$2,000</span>. XRP has remained relatively stable, while BTC, ETH, and SOL continue to trade below their year-opening levels. SOL, which hit an all-time high in January following Cboe&#8217;s Solana Spot ETF filing, also remains down year-to-date. While the broader market has shown signs of recovery, derivatives activity reflects lingering caution. Demand for BTC and ETH put options remains elevated, signaling ongoing hedging behavior.</p> <p><b>Cautious rebound in perpetuals</b></p> <p>Perpetual open interest stayed flat for most of the week, underscoring a cautious, risk-off tone. A brief market rebound saw BTC rise to <span class="xn-money">$88,000</span> — a two-week high — triggering modest increases in perpetual trade volume, primarily driven by BTC. Still, volumes remain significantly below those recorded earlier this month, when U.S. President <span class="xn-person">Donald Trump</span> proposed a national crypto reserve centered on the four largest tokens.</p> <div dir="ltr" id="prni_dvprnejpgd768left" style="width: 100%;text-align: left"><img decoding="async" align="middle" alt="Sources: Bybit, Block Scholes" id="prnejpgd768left" src="https://mma.prnewswire.com/media/2654983/Sources_Bybit_Block_Scholes.jpg" title="Sources: Bybit, Block Scholes"></img></div> <p><b>Funding rates suggest persistent bearish sentiment</b></p> <p>Despite lower realized volatility and positive price movement among major assets, BTC and ETH perpetual contracts continued to post negative funding rates. This indicates that short sellers are still paying long positions, an ongoing sign of bearish sentiment. In contrast, large-cap altcoins showed more mixed positioning, with funding rates fluctuating between positive and negative without a clear directional bias.</p> <p><b>Volatility retreats to yearly lows</b></p> <p>Implied volatility declined by 3 to 5 points over the past week, with 30-day options now trading at their lowest levels since the beginning of the year. Realized volatility is also nearing the 30% floor last seen in February. As typically observed in low-volatility periods, options market activity has slowed, with open interest remaining low and relatively balanced between puts and calls. Around <span class="xn-money">$40 million</span> in options expired during the week.</p> <p><b>Access the full report</b></p> <p>For detailed insights, readers may download <u><a href="https://learn.bybit.com/crypto-insight/cautious-sentiment-prevails-despite-price-recovery/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">the full report</a><a href="https://learn.bybit.com/crypto-insight/cautious-sentiment-prevails-despite-price-recovery/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">.</a></u></p> <p>#Bybit / #TheCryptoArk /#BybitResearch</p> <p><b>About Bybit</b></p> <p>Bybit is the world&#8217;s second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, serving a global community of over 60 million users.
