TheCryptoTimesPublicado a 2025-09-15Actualizado a 2025-09-15

MetaMask’s new stablecoin, mUSD, which is designed to serve as a wallet-native asset, went live on September 15, 2025. The stablecoin aims to simplify crypto for users, from onramping and holding to earning and spending, all within the MetaMask platform. mUSD, which is powered by Transak, is currently available to users in the United States and the European Union.

The contract address for mUSD is 0xaca92e438df0b2401ff60da7e4337b687a2435da, also available on MetaMask’s website.

The new stablecoin is intended to act as a bridge between traditional finance and decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems, underpinning various DeFi activities such as trading, lending, and remittances. It is available at a 1:1 rate with USDC and USDT and offers native support across 

MetaMask Swap and Bridge transactions. Users can also spend mUSD with the MetaMask Card at over 150 million merchants globally. Additional benefits include strong liquidity on LineaBuild and low-cost fiat onramps.

As of the current data, mUSD has a market cap of $18.01 million and a circulating supply of $18.04 million, with a 24-hour volume of $20.34 million. The price has been within a 24-hour range of $0.99 to $1.01. The launch also coincides with new functionality allowing users to manage and fund their MetaMask Card directly within the MetaMask Mobile app. 

MetaMask announced the launch on August 21, 2025. This marks the first time a self-custodial wallet has introduced it. It is designed to be deeply integrated into the MetaMask ecosystem to simplify the user experience for holding, spending, and transacting in Web3. Metamask thanked M0, Stablecoin and Transak on X for “helping bring this all to life.”

Bitcoin's Relative Strength Index (RSI) Approaches Its Strongest Overbought Level in Two Years! What Does This Mean? Here Are the Details

A significant technical shift has occurred for Bitcoin, with its Relative Strength Index (RSI) entering the 84-86 range, marking its most overbought condition since November 2024. This follows a sharp 12% price surge that broke Bitcoin out of its $62,000-$71,000 trading range, briefly pushing it near $80,000. The rapid upward move triggered substantial liquidations, wiping out over $3 billion in short positions within 24 hours, which in turn fueled further buying pressure. Analysts are now watching the $77,000 level as a crucial short-term support. Holding above this level is considered vital for sustaining the bullish momentum. However, the extreme RSI reading signals that while strong upward momentum persists, it coincides with an elevated risk of a potential price correction in the near term.

Goldman Sachs Research Report Analysis: 135% Profit Growth in Q2, APAC Valuations Fall to a Decade Low

Goldman Sachs Asia Pacific Market Report Summary (Aug 21, 2026) Earnings soared 135% YoY in Q2 for the MXAPJ index, with 46% of companies beating expectations, led by the Information Technology sector (+390% YoY). Despite this robust profit growth, the index's forward P/E of 11x sits 2 standard deviations below its 10-year average, indicating deep valuation discount. Market sentiment remains cautious, as seen in hedge fund leverage for Asian long/short funds dropping to a one-year low. While China saw net buying in August, its allocation remains near five-year lows, and foreign investors withdrew $1.5bn from EM Asia ex-China markets. The valuation gap is attributed to market pessimism on future growth, not aligning with consensus EPS growth forecasts of 71% for 2026 and 24% for 2027. The upcoming MSCI index rebalancing is expected to trigger approximately $42bn in total two-way passive fund flows. Leveraged ETF flows in Korea and Taiwan show signs of cooling, suggesting a reduction in crowded long positions. Goldman Sachs' core trades include long positions in stocks with strong earnings revisions and AI infrastructure/semiconductors. Key downside risks are rising long-term US bond yields, heightened geopolitical tensions, and a slower-than-expected Chinese economic recovery. The firm maintains a 12-month target of 1080 for MXAPJ, implying 21% upside.

Phantom Discontinues Support for Sui as Network Struggles to Recover

On September 24, Phantom wallet will discontinue support for the Sui blockchain, giving users a few weeks to migrate their assets. This marks the end of a partnership that began with much fanfare in January 2025, when Sui became the fourth Layer 1 network supported by the then-15-million-user wallet. Phantom is also dropping support for Monad in August, indicating a broader streamlining of its multi-chain offerings rather than a move specific to Sui. The announcement coincides with a significant downturn for the Sui network. Its Total Value Locked (TVL) in DeFi has plummeted from approximately $2 billion in early 2026 to under $1 billion by July. The price of SUI has also fallen sharply from its all-time high of $5.36 in January 2025 to around $0.83 at the time of reporting. Phantom provided users with two main migration paths: converting SUI to a wrapped version on Solana directly within the wallet (with no proprietary Phantom fee until the cutoff date), or exporting their seed phrase to another Sui-compatible wallet like Sui Foundation's preferred wallet, Sui Wallet. The company emphasized that assets remain on the blockchain, not in the wallet, and warned users against potential migration scams. While both parties describe the split as mutual and leave open the possibility of future collaboration, the loss of a major wallet's support highlights the ongoing fragmentation in the blockchain industry. This poses a challenge for Sui's retail accessibility, even as the network maintains other infrastructure support, such as from Circle for its stablecoins. The future will reveal whether other wallets follow Phantom's lead or seek to attract the displaced Sui user base.

Gram Cryptocurrency Declines Following Reports of Charges Against Pavel Durov

The cryptocurrency Gram (associated with the TON ecosystem and Toncoin) declined following reports that Russian FSB authorities have charged Telegram founder Pavel Durov with complicity in terrorist activities. The price fell by approximately 2.29% to $1.42. The article explains that Gram was originally intended as the token for Telegram's TON blockchain project but was halted due to legal pressure from the SEC. Development then shifted to The Open Network and its Toncoin token, though market confusion between the similarly named assets persists. The recent price drop is attributed directly to the news about Durov's legal situation. His lawyer has suggested cooperation with the FSB could mitigate risks, noting Durov's dual citizenship in France and the UAE offers legal protection. Concurrently, Russian lawmakers have suggested Telegram could be declared a terrorist resource, alleging it is used by Ukrainian services to recruit operatives for attacks within Russia. Overall, Gram's value is shown to be highly sensitive to legal and political developments surrounding its associated figure, Pavel Durov, and the Telegram ecosystem.
