Tokenization doesn’t ‘magically’ fix illiquid assets: PBW 2026
Tokenization does not automatically make hard-to-trade assets liquid, industry executives said at Paris Blockchain Week, pushing back on the idea that putting private credit, real estate or other illiquid products onchain will by itself create active secondary markets.
Speaking during a panel moderated by Cointelegraph CEO Yana Prikhodchenko, Oya Celiktemur, Ondo Finance sales director for Europe, the Middle East and Africa (EMEA), said there is still a misconception that tokenizing illiquid as

Economist Proposes National USD Stablecoin to Eliminate Currency Controls in Venezuela



Alejandro Grisanti, head of Ecoanalitica, proposed issuing a national USD stablecoin as part of a series of measures to lift currency controls in Venezuela. This system would complement the current auction system, allowing the excluded sector to receive dollars via blockchain rails.

Key Takeaways:

Ecoanalitica proposes a stablecoin to fix local dollar shortages, driving future Venezuelan bank integration.

Surging adoption since 2025 bypasses the Central Bank, making stablecoins vital for future SME dollar access.

In October, R&D, Conexus, processing 40% of transfers, announced work on a stablecoin settlement system.

Ecoanalítica Proposes Venezuelan Stablecoin to Solve Dollar Woes

As the Venezuelan economy faces headwinds because of the currency controls and the exclusion of small and medium enterprises from the dollar assignment system, cryptocurrencies can be part of the solution to these issues.

In a recent note, Alejandro Grisanti, founder and CEO of Ecoanalitica, an economic consulting firm, highlighted the advantages of issuing a stablecoin to help correct dollar distribution issues derived from the implementation of an auction system that allows different exchange rates for the greenback.

Grisanti proposes “the implementation of a system based on stablecoins integrated into the formal financial system, subject to strict regulation and featuring AML/KYC compliance mechanisms,” in addition to the controlled import of cash to allow small and medium-sized companies without banking accounts in the U.S. to operate using dollars in the local market.

Grisanti’s proposal suggests the issuance of a dollar stablecoin specially designed for the country, which would feature traceability, operational control, and shared auditing with international partners.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

A fragile but significant ceasefire between Lebanon and Israel took effect Thursday, as President Donald Trump signaled that a broader peace agreement with Iran may be within reach. The development marks a pivotal moment in the U.S.-Iran war, which erupted on February 28 following a joint American-Israeli military offensive. Trump confirmed that Iran had expressed willingness to forgo nuclear weapons for over two decades, a notable shift from earlier positions. Speaking outside the White House, he told reporters that a deal was close, and later declared at a Las Vegas event that the war "should be ending pretty soon." If finalized, the agreement would reopen the Strait of Hormuz a critical global shipping lane carrying roughly one-fifth of the world's oil and gas - potentially easing an unprecedented oil price crisis that has rattled global markets and prompted IMF warnings of a looming recession.Celebrations broke out across Beirut at midnight as the ceasefire began, though early violations were reported by the Lebanese Army, citing Israeli shelling in southern villages. Hezbollah also issued a statement confirming its final strike came just minutes before the truce deadline.Diplomatic

Circle unveils USDC Bridge for native cross-chain stablecoin transfers
Stablecoin issuer Circle has launched $USDC Bridge, enabling users to transfer $USDC natively between at least 17 blockchains without needing to rely on wrapped or synthetic tokens.

On Friday, Circle’s $USDC X account said the bridge allows users to move the $USDC ($USDC) stablecoin in a “predictable, transparent way,” citing a native burn-and-mint transfer mechanism and no bridge complexities.

Gas fees will be handled automatically, fees will be shown upfront, and live status updates will be provided throughout the transfer, Circle added.
The $USDC Bridge builds on Circle’s Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP), which was introduced in April 2023 and facilitates hundreds of millions of stablecoin transfers each day.

Cross-chain bridges seek to make the broader crypto ecosystem interoperable, functioning as a unified network rather than a collection of fragmented, isolated blockchains.

Making bridges as simple and easy to use as possible has been an area of focus for many crypto infrastructure firms.

In the past, bridges have confused users and arguably slowed crypto adoption, especially for beginners struggling to navigate bridge interfaces, trade routes and gas fees.

$USDC Bridge supports over a dozen blockchains

Cointelegraph found that $USDC Bridge supports $USDC transfers between at least 17 Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible blockchains, including Ethereum, Avalanche, Arbitrum, Base, Monad, Optimism, Polygon, Sonic and World Network.

Circle’s CCTP supports a broader number of blockchains, including Solana, Sui and Aptos, which are not natively EVM compatible.

On Wednesday, Circle was hit with a class action for failing to freeze around $230 million worth of $USDC that moved through its CCTP from the Drift Protocol exploit on April 1.

Beaten-down digital asset treasury names lead crypto stock surge as bitcoin hits $78,000

Crypto-linked stocks surged Friday, led by a sharp rally in beaten-down digital asset treasury firms, as progress toward ending the Iran war jolted risk assets, sending bitcoin to a two-month high of $78,000.

U.S. President Donald Trump said in a Truth Social post that Iran committed to keeping open the Strait of Hormuz, a key artery for global energy markets.

Bitcoin liquidation map flags $73.6K ‘trapdoor’ and $81.3K squeeze zone


Coinglass shows $2.221B of $BTC longs below $73,610 and $913M of shorts above $81,264, turning the next $10K band into a $3.1B liquidation minefield for traders.

Bitcoin ($BTC) is once again wedged between two large liquidation clusters, with leverage stacked just below and above current levels on major derivatives venues. According to the latest liquidation‑levels data from derivatives analytics platform Coinglass, “if $BTC falls below $73,610, the cumulative long liquidation intensity on major CEXs will reach $2.221 billion,” while “if $BTC breaks above $81,264, the cumulative short liquidation intensity on major CEXs will reach $913 million.”

Coinglass maps new $BTC liquidation walls

Coinglass explains that its Bitcoin liquidation heatmap and liquidation‑levels indicator are designed to “estimate price ranges where large‑scale liquidation events may occur” by aggregating high‑leverage long and short clusters across futures and perpetual swaps. The firm stresses that the bars on its heatmap represent relative “intensity” rather than an exact dollar amount guaranteed to be wiped out, but notes that once price collides with a dense band, forced selling or buying can “cause sharp price movements and significantly impact traders’ positions.”

In a recent analysis highlighted by crypto.news, Coinglass’ Bitcoin liquidation map showed a similar setup lower down the chart, with a $1.143 billion long wall below $65,000 and a $754 million short pocket above $68,000, creating nearly $1.9 billion of potential forced flow in a narrow band. At that time, the platform described these areas as “sensitivity zones” that can turn a modest 5–7% move into a disproportionate liquidation cascade as exchanges automatically close margined positions.

Ethereum Whales Are Sitting on a Breakeven Ceiling at $2,400 Price: Are They About to Kill the Rally?
Ethereum price is trading at $2,350–$2,351 after posting back-to-back daily gains of 4.76% and 6.32% in recent sessions, but the chart is telling a more complicated story.

Distribution pressure from whale cohorts sitting near their average cost basis is creating a ceiling that bulls haven’t cracked yet. One resistance level, in particular, is doing most of the heavy lifting right now.

According to Cryptoquant, key whale and retail cohorts carry average cost basis levels between $2,324 and $2,436, a band that neatly brackets current price action and creates natural sell pressure as holders look to exit near breakeven.
US spot ETH ETF inflows returned at $67.8 million on Wednesday after five straight days of net inflows per SoSoValue data, signaling slow but real institutional re-engagement.

Meanwhile, $111.6 million in liquidations hit over the last 48 hours, $70.8 million of that in longs, per Coinglass, a bruising reminder that leverage remains a liability at these levels.

Broader crypto sentiment has stabilized alongside equity markets, but ETH’s internal metrics suggest the recovery lacks the volume conviction needed to flip the next major resistance zone. The next 72 hours may determine whether this is a base-building phase or a fakeout.
