Tether backs Stablecoin Development Corporation's $134 million private placement used to acquire SKY tokens

The Stablecoin Development Corporation is a publicly-traded holding company with an approximate 2.15 billion SKY token treasury.

Tether announced on Wednesday that it supported SDEV's $134 million private placement in January.

Tether has named itself as a backer of the publicly-traded holding company Stablecoin Development Corporation's previously announced $134 million fundraise, according to a release on Wednesday.

SDEV, the firm's NYSE American ticker and frequent abbreviation, is designed to provide public market investors with structured exposure to the stablecoin sector, including through its strategic position in Sky (formerly MakerDAO).

The firm holds SKY, the governance token for the Sky Protocol, and uses Sky's USDS stablecoin, the third-largest stablecoin by market capitalization and the largest that's fully onchain.

VerifiedX brings privacy layer to Bitcoin as institutional demand for confidentiality grows

A growing push to bring privacy to public blockchains has reached Bitcoin, with VerifiedX unveiling a new layer designed to shield transactions while maintaining auditability.

The system, called Prism, enables encrypted balances, shielded addresses and selective disclosure, allowing users to transact privately while still proving compliance when required, according to an emailed announcement shared with CoinDesk on Thursday.

The timing reflects a broader shift across the industry. The XRP Ledger this week introduced zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) capabilities aimed squarely at institutional users seeking to transact without exposing sensitive data on public ledgers.

That effort highlights what many see as a core barrier to institutional adoption: transparency. While public blockchains provide trust through openness, they also expose balances, counterparties and transaction flows — something institutions typically avoid in traditional finance (TradFi).

Any such development carries added weight when applied to Bitcoin. As the largest digital asset — worth more than the rest of the crypto market combined at times — Bitcoin remains the primary gateway for institutional capital. That means improvements to its functionality, particularly around privacy and usability, have the potential to influence the entire sector more profoundly than similar upgrades on smaller networks.

VerifiedX is applying this model directly to Bitcoin-linked activity rather than building a separate privacy chain. Assets can move between transparent and shielded states, while “viewing keys” enable selective access for auditors or regulators.

Beyond payments, the system supports programmable use cases such as private lending, trading and automated transactions, including agent-driven financ

Can the Bulls Take Bitcoin to $80K This Week?

Bitcoin moved higher Thursday thanks to hope that a peace deal would soon be reached between Iran and the United States
Selling pressure on Bitcoin is easing as it approaches $75,000, with potential to reach $80,000 soon.

Market indicators suggest a bullish trend, with realized losses decreasing significantly from $2 billion to $400 million daily.

The ongoing conflict in the Middle East has influenced investor behavior, but Bitcoin has shown resilience and recovery.

The broader cryptocurrency market is also experiencing gains, with several altcoins seeing positive movement.
Industry experts say that sellers are losing momentum on Bitcoin and that market indicators point toward a long bullish streak. The coin hit $74,8681 (BTC/USD) on Thursday and gained 0.58% from the previous day. Trade volume slowed from the previous session, but strong ETF inflows for the week show that Bitcoin is active and well supported.

Diminished selling trends show that realized losses are down to $400 million a day from their previous highs of $2 billion. Sellers are falling away and buyers are stepping in to take over, especially this week as the market recovered from several weeks of selling pressure brought on by the Iran conflict.
