Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure In a positive development for the crypto industry, a recent study by White House economists affirmed that stablecoin yield won’t harm community banks, and its prohibition won’t have a meaningful impact on overall lending in the banking system.Related Reading: US Prosecutors Reject Tornado Cash Founder’s Defense Amid Push For October RetrialStablecoin Yield Is Not A ThreatOn Wednesday, the Council of Economic Advisers (CEA) released the highly anticipated study on a key issue that has become a major point of contention between the banking and crypto industries over the past few months: stablecoin yield and its potential impact on deposit flight and bank lending. For context, the landmark crypto legislation, the GENIUS Act, requires issuers to maintain reserves backing outstanding stablecoins on a one-to-one basis and to hold these reserves in certain assets, including US dollars, Federal Reserve notes, and short-term US Treasuries.The bill also introduced key restrictions that prohibit issuers from offering any form of interest or yield to stablecoin holders. The banking industry has urged US lawmakers to extend the prohibition to digital asset exchanges, brokers, dealers, and related entities, which has led to prolonged debate and delay of the crypto market structure bill, also known as the CLARITY Act.While some analysts estimate that the effect of lending in the trillions of dollars, the CEA report found that eliminating stablecoin yield would only boost bank lending by $2.1 billion, equivalent to a 0.02% increase. Large banks would conduct 76% of this additional lending, while community banks—which have assets below $10 billion—would lend the remaining 24%. In our baseline, that adds up to $500 million in additional lending from community banks, meaning their lending rising by 0.026%. As they noted, even under the worst-case assumpti

Sharplink, the second-largest Ethereum [ETH] treasury company, has reportedly staked over 511 ETH this week in staking rewards, bringing its total to 16,947 ETH.

By staking ETH, Sharplink is locking up its Ethereum tokens in the network to validate transactions and, in return, earn rewards in ETH. Remarking on the same, Sharplink said,

Sharplink vs. BitMine - ETH holdings and strategy This happens at a time when Sharplink's ETH stash has reached 868,699 ETH holdings worth $1.95 billion. However, when compared to the largest Ethereum treasury company, BitMine, it's too little. As per CoinGecko's data, BitMine holds 4,803,334 ETH worth $10.81 billion.

In fact, the motives of the two firms are also widely different, as BitMine strongly believes in hoarding ETH, which is similar to Michael Saylor's firm, Strategy. However, Sharplink is taking a different approach to earning interest by staking its Ethereum.

The approach that BitMine is following is good if the firm is looking for bullish results and is more inclined towards flexibility at times of selling.

Crypto projected to move $719 trillion through global payments with Visa, Mastercard aggressive stance

Consumers may not see the shift yet, but the fight over how money moves is already underway.
For most of the past two years, debate about stablecoins in payments has focused on the checkout screen: will consumers ever tap a wallet instead of a card?

Visa, Stripe, and Mastercard have answered with their capital. Visa now settles in USDC, Stripe bought Bridge, and Mastercard is acquiring BVNK.

Each move reflects the same read that stablecoins are becoming the settlement and liquidity layer beneath existing brands, and whoever controls that layer controls the economics of the next payment cycle.

Chainalysis put adjusted stablecoin volume at $28 trillion in 2025 and projected it could reach $719 trillion by 2035 on organic growth, with a more aggressive scenario approaching $1.5 quadrillion.

The grounding comes from McKinsey and Artemis, which estimate actual stablecoin payments at about $390 billion annually, a figure corroborated by BCG's $350-$550 billion range, excluding non-economic and trading flows.

At those levels, stablecoins represent roughly 2.3% of Visa's $17 trillion in payments volume in 2025.
Stablecoins can reprice settlement economics at 2.3% penetration because settlement and checkout operate on separate infrastructure.

Many hybrid stablecoin payment flows never appear as on-chain merchant transactions. Crypto card transactions typically execute on traditional card rails, while the blockchain captures only issuer inflows and outflows.

A stablecoin settlement layer can expand commercially without ever becoming visible at the point of sale.

Tom Lee’s Bitmine uplists to NYSE with 4.8M ETH and $4 billion buyback authorization
Bitmine said it uplisted its shares to the New York Stock Exchange and expanded its repurchase authorization to $4 billion.

The company held 4.803 million ETH as of Monday this week, representing 3.98% of the total supply.
Bitmine Immersion Technologies BBMNR0% began trading on the New York Stock Exchange on Thursday, switching from the NYSE American, where its stock ceased trading at Wednesday's close. 

"Today, Bitmine achieved a major milestone by being uplisted to the 'Big Board' NYSE. The NYSE is the most prestigious venerable stock exchange with a storied history," Chairman Tom Lee said in a statement.

In addition to the uplisting, Bitmine's board unanimously approved an increase to its 2025 share repurchase authorization from $1 billion to $4 billion. The revised program ranks among the 10 largest buybacks announced in 2026, per Fundstrat's 2026 buyback ranking cited in the statement. Other companies in that category include Alphabet, Meta, and Apple.

The repurchase program, originally approved on July 25, 2025, permits open market transactions under Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 through an agreement with Cantor Fitzgerald. The $4 billion authorization includes shares already repurchased under the prior program, Bitmine said.

The development follows Bitmine's largest weekly ETH acquisition since December. In the week ending April 5, the company added 71,252 ETH, raising total holdings to 4.803 million tokens worth over $10 billion at current prices. Bitmine also reported 3,334,637 staked ETH as of April 6, or $7.1 billion at $2,123 per token, and said it has staked more ETH than any other entity globally.

Stablecoins processed $33t in 2025, topping Visa and Mastercard, and could clear over $50t by 2026 as corporates, banks and AI agents turn on‑chain dollars into core payment rails. Summary Morph’s “State of Stablecoins” report says stablecoins settled $33 trillion on‑chain in 2025, versus Visa and Mastercard’s combined $25.5 trillion, with several months above $1.5 trillion in volume. Around 60% of flows are now B2B as corporates use dollar tokens for cross‑border treasury, supplier payments and procurement, while 90% of financial institutions are already using or piloting stablecoins. Morph projects stablecoin settlement could exceed $50 trillion by 2026 and reach roughly 10% of global cross‑border payments by 2030, helped by MiCA, new US rules and AI agents automating a potential $1.9t market. Stablecoins processed $33 trillion of on-chain transaction volume in 2025, surpassing the combined $25.5 trillion handled by Visa and Mastercard and signaling that tokenized dollars have quietly outgrown legacy card rails, according to a new “State of Stablecoins” report from Ethereum layer-2 network Morph. Morph’s analysts argue the asset class has moved beyond its speculative origins to become a core settlement layer for global finance, with volumes now comparable to the world’s largest payment networks despite a total market capitalization in the low hundreds of billions.

Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) is claiming its aggressive Bitcoin purchases have yielded a nearly $2 billion gain this year despite the top asset's clear price struggles.

However, a close look at the enterprise software company's legally binding regulatory filings tells a much redder story: under standard accounting rules, the firm is nursing a multi-billion dollar unrealized loss, and its aggregate Bitcoin stack sits firmly underwater.

Despite the paper losses, the company shows no signs of slowing. Armed with a highly liquid capital markets engine, Strategy continues to issue equity to fund massive daily purchases, completely unfazed by the disconnect between its curated corporate dashboard and its sobering regulatory reality.

A bespoke winning streak
By its own metrics, Strategy’s Bitcoin treasury playbook is flawless despite the prevailing bear market situation in the broader crypto market.

On X, the company said its BTC purchasing strategy has generated nearly $1.7 billion in Bitcoin gains since January this year.
