Brother Sun and CZ Jointly Endorse, New Stablecoin United Stables (U) Emerges

Resumen

New stablecoin United Stables (U) has been listed on multiple exchanges including Binance, Gate, and BitMart, with HTX launching it earlier on December 18 alongside a 20% APY earnings program. Positioned as a next-generation stablecoin for trading, payments, and AI-native ecosystems, U aggregates liquidity across different chains and assets, with a current supply of 409 million tokens on BNB Chain and Ethereum. The project gained significant attention due to endorsements from industry leaders CZ (Binance founder) and Justin Sun (HTX advisor). Both publicly engaged with United Stables’ social media, and CZ hinted at U being a "second-generation stablecoin" during an AMA. Athena Y, a co-founder of U and former executive director of Binance Charity Foundation, also adds credibility. U is backed 1:1 by a mix of USD and major audited stablecoins (USDT, USDC, USD1), featuring real-time Proof of Reserves (PoR) and monthly audits. It is fully integrated into BSC’s DeFi ecosystem, including platforms like PancakeSwap and ListaDAO, and is supported by major wallets like Trust Wallet and SafePal.

Today, multiple cryptocurrency exchanges including Binance, Gate, BitMart, and others have successively announced the listing of the stablecoin United Stables (U). Previously, Huobi HTX had already taken the lead in listing U on December 18th, simultaneously launching a wealth management activity with an annualized rate as high as 20%.

United Stables (U) positions itself as a next-generation stablecoin built for trading, payments, wealth management, and an AI-native ecosystem, reintegrating liquidity scattered across different chains and different assets. It is currently live on BNB Chain and Ethereum, with a cumulative issuance of 409 million tokens.

In the current fiercely competitive stablecoin market, United Stables quickly attracted community attention, primarily because it has gained the endorsement of two top influencers in the crypto circle—CZ and Justin Sun. Since BNB Chain previewed the launch of a new stablecoin on December 16th, the community noticed that CZ and Justin Sun successively followed the official United Stables X account, causing its popularity to soar rapidly.

On December 18th, crypto blogger Australian Lion Brother posted that CZ mentioned stablecoins extensively in that day's AMA and hinted that United Stables(U) is a second-generation stablecoin. These signs also led the market to speculate that CZ may be deeply involved with the United Stables project.

Interestingly, United Stables' co-founder Athena Y also has a "Binance background." According to Athena Y's personal account introduction, she is the co-founder of the United Nations Development Programme's "Made in Africa" initiative and co-founder of the stablecoin payment project Wello (supported by BNB Chain); the community uncovered another identity she hadn't disclosed: Athena Y previously served as the Executive Director of the Binance Charity Foundation (BCF), conducting multiple charity activities in Africa.

If CZ's support for United Stables(U) remains at the "verbal" level, Justin Sun is subsidizing it with real money. On the day United Stables(U) was listed, Huobi launched an Earn product with a 20% annualized yield. On December 19th, Justin Sun personally livestreamed with multiple KOLs to promote the stablecoin U, the cover featuring an animated image of him and CZ holding the "U".

The attire in this image is exactly what they wore during government activities in Pakistan on December 11th-12th. That day, CZ and Justin Sun took photos together with regulators; CZ was appointed as a strategic advisor to the Pakistan Crypto Committee, while Huobi received a compliance license from local regulators; afterwards, the two were photographed riding in a car together.

The Stablecoin of Stablecoins

What are the unique features of United Stables(U) that earned it the favor of CZ and Justin Sun?

United Stables(U) can be called the stablecoin of stablecoins. According to official introduction, U is fully collateralized 1:1 by the US dollar and audited major stablecoins (such as USDT, USDC, and USD1). U also features real-time on-chain Proof of Reserves (PoR) and monthly audits. This structure not only enhances liquidity and reduces collateral asset volatility but also ensures users can always redeem quickly and transparently.

The total issuance of United Stables(U) is 409 million tokens, all of which are currently in circulation. According to DeFiLama data, although United Stables(U) supports both BSC and Ethereum chains, its entire current supply is issued on BSC.

In terms of ecosystem integration, U has integrated support for the vast majority of BSC ecosystem applications, including mainstream DeFi protocols like PancakeSwap, Aster, Four.meme, ListaDAO, etc. Users can directly trade, stake, borrow, and provide liquidity on-chain. Regarding wallet support, Binance Wallet, Trust Wallet, and SafePal have simultaneously listed U.

United Stables has stated that "U is born for the AI era," but no specific project developments related to this have been revealed yet.

Patrick Witt Delays Military Training to Lead White House Push for CLARITY Act

Patrick Witt, Executive Director of the President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets, has delayed his military training with the Georgia Army National Guard to lead White House negotiations on the CLARITY Act. With the Senate entering recess on August 8, this period is seen as crucial for advancing the bill, which aims to establish clear regulatory rules for the digital asset market in the United States. This marks the second time Witt has postponed his military service for this purpose. His role as the administration's lead negotiator has gained increased importance following the impending departure of Deputy Director Harry Jung, ensuring leadership continuity during critical legislative efforts. The White House is prioritizing the passage of this significant cryptocurrency regulation before the Senate break.

Dialogue with Jia Hang | Looking Back at Two Decades of Chinese Payment Going Global

**Summary: A Conversation with Jia Hang on Two Decades of China's Payment Globalization** Jia Hang, a veteran with over twenty years in payments, reflects on China's attempts to build a global payment network through three key phases: UnionPay (card networks), Alipay+ (digital wallets), and now, stablecoins. His journey began at UnionPay International, aiming to establish China's card network abroad. While successful in following Chinese tourists ("where Chinese go, UnionPay goes"), it struggled to achieve true global scale. The core lesson: card networks like Visa/Mastercard's unassailable advantage isn't just technical standards, but their deeply entrenched **governance and profit-sharing models** that create powerful network effects. Competing as the "same species" is nearly impossible. At Ant Group, he led Alipay+, a strategy to bypass card networks by interconnecting local e-wallets worldwide. While innovative, it faced a similar ceiling. Mobile QR payments and card swipes were essentially **the same species competing for the same pie**, lacking a disruptive value proposition for users or a sustainable new incentive model to replace the card networks' established flywheel. Today, at Singapore's DCS, Jia focuses on stablecoin-based payments. He argues stablecoins represent a fundamental shift. They are not competing with Visa for consumer payments but challenging the **traditional banking and account system for value movement**. Products like "U Cards" (stablecoin-linked payment cards) are transitional, leveraging existing card networks for acceptance while building new rails. The real potential lies in stablecoins enabling seamless, low-cost global value transfer, potentially reorganizing the financial infrastructure around **accounts rather than cards**. Jia believes stablecoin adoption for local retail payments, cross-border transactions, and as high-yield savings vehicles is becoming irreversible. This could gradually reduce reliance on traditional fiat channels, especially in regions with weak currencies or capital controls. The quest for the "next global payment network" continues, now centered on whether stablecoins can successfully bridge Web2 and Web3, establish new governance, and create compelling user value beyond mere cost reduction.

Circle's Stock Price Plunges 76%, Hong Kong Dollar Stablecoin Set to Launch Within Two Weeks

Circle's stock price has plunged approximately 76% from its 2023 peak, reflecting a major market revaluation. Despite this, Circle President Heath Tarbert emphasized the company's focus on long-term execution and its dominant position with USDC's $73 billion circulation across 34 blockchains. The competitive landscape is intensifying. A new consortium-backed stablecoin, Open USD, is attempting to challenge incumbents by sharing reserve yields with partners. More significantly, Visa's new stablecoin platform, initially supporting Open USD while also being compatible with USDC, could erode Circle's network effects. In response, Circle is expanding into real-world payments through partnerships like the one with Japan's JCB. Separately, Tether (USDT) faces a two-year compliance window under new U.S. regulations, requiring it to adjust its reserve composition away from assets like Bitcoin and loans towards cash and U.S. Treasuries. Meanwhile, in Hong Kong, Standard Chartered-backed fintech firm Dian Dian is poised to launch a licensed HKD-pegged stablecoin (HKDAP), moving the industry into a phase where the real test is integrating licensed stablecoins into actual payment flows and corporate treasury systems. The sharp decline in Circle's stock underscores a broader shift: the stablecoin market is moving from a winner-takes-all dynamic to a multi-player competitive arena where execution, compliance, and real-world utility are becoming paramount.

Amidst Capital's Encirclement, Decentralization is the Sole Defense for Public Blockchains

In a landscape dominated by power and profit motives, the author argues that decentralization is not merely one desirable feature among many in blockchain design—it is the singular, non-negotiable defense against corporate and capital capture. The article adopts a Machiavellian, realist perspective on human institutions, positing that businesses will inevitably attempt to co-opt any valuable network to protect their profits and dominance. While external attacks like 51% forks are often discussed, the greater existential risk is internal capture—the gradual erosion of a protocol’s neutrality by vested interests, as seen historically with platforms like Visa and Google. The piece critiques permissioned chains, highly centralized “permissionless” layer-1s, and layer-2s without sufficient decentralization (e.g., single sequencers) as inherently vulnerable. These compromised systems, promoted by established financial players, are framed as delaying tactics to stifle truly open networks that threaten existing high-fee, inefficient business models. Real-world examples, such as closed enterprise consortiums that exclude competitors, illustrate how such systems cement oligopolies rather than foster innovation. The author concludes that while decentralized protocols like Ethereum are imperfect and costly to operate, they represent the only viable long-term equilibrium. In a market where value naturally flows to the most secure and neutral settlement layer, only maximally decentralized public blockchains can resist being subsumed by capital and powerful incumbents.

Who Decides the Rules of Bitcoin? BIP-110 Ignites Governance Debate

Bitcoin's governance is once again at the center of a heated debate, this time ignited by BIP-110, the "Reduced Data Temporary Softfork." This proposal aims to curb non-monetary data (like inscriptions and Runes) by introducing seven new consensus-layer restrictions over a year, such as limiting new output scripts to 34 bytes and restoring the OP_RETURN cap to 83 bytes. The controversy stems from BIP-110's fundamental shift: it moves the battle against "spam" from node relay and miner policies to the consensus layer, rendering currently valid transactions invalid. Supporters, arguing that default policy governance has failed (highlighted by Bitcoin Core v30's relaxation of OP_RETURN limits), see this as necessary to protect node resources and Bitcoin's monetary focus. Opponents, led by figures like Michael Saylor and Adam Back, warn it dangerously centralizes governance. Saylor listed 110 reasons against it, criticizing its low 55% miner activation threshold and potential for chain splits. Back emphasized Bitcoin's "permissionless" ethos, arguing no single group should impose value judgments via consensus rules. Further complicating matters, technical critiques suggest BIP-110 may be technically circumventable, and a "BlockSlop" vulnerability in its upgrade path poses a consensus risk. The debate has drawn in diverse stakeholders: miners (with pools like Ocean signaling support and Foundry polling clients), node operators (like Bitcoin Knots), and new players like corporate treasury holder MicroStrategy (Saylor), whose market influence adds a novel dimension. Ultimately, BIP-110 acts as a governance stress test, exposing the unresolved question: who decides Bitcoin's rules? It pits the authority of miners, node operators, developers, and capital holders against each other, with each side claiming to defend Bitcoin's core principles of neutrality and security.
