Claim1,200 USDT in the Monthly Creation Challenge

That is where the market tension starts. XRP still trades with a utility narrative attached. Ripple’s own description of XRP presents the asset as infrastructure for global payments, with settlement in three to five seconds and transaction costs measured in fractions of a cent. XRPL’s overview goes further, describing XRP as a currency bridge within the network’s decentralized exchange. Those points have supported the asset’s core pitch for years.

If cross-border payments remain slow, expensive, and operationally fragmented, the case for a neutral bridge asset retains intuitive force. Once major payment rails begin to solve more of that friction within the regulated banking stack, the question changes. The issue becomes less about whether XRP can do the job and more about whether the job is becoming less scarce

Trusted Editorial content, reviewed by leading industry experts and seasoned editors. Ad Disclosure After a brief bounce at the beginning of the week, Bitcoin and Ethereum are back to price levels not seen in weeks, reinforcing the momentum of the upward move. Amid this rebound, both leading crypto assets are displaying consistent growth underneath the surface.Rising Leverage Collide Bitcoin And Ethereum ReboundBitcoin and Ethereum’s prices just shifted into a bullish state and are demonstrating more upside potential in the short term. The recent bounce in both assets is running into a new layer of complexity, as clearly observed in their Open Interest (OI) on cryptocurrency exchanges.

Ethereum-Based NFT Platform Halts Operations
The digital art community was jolted early this morning after the prominent Ethereum-based $NFT platform Foundation halted its operation.

This was due to the reversal of its recent acquisition by digital art gallery company Blackdove.

Blackdove executive Marc Billings announced the difficult decision to "pause our ongoing support of the Foundation platform" and return management to Foundation's original founder, Kayvon Tehranian, for an orderly transition.

According to Billings, Blackdove initially intended to acquire Foundation to integrate asset tokenization into its existing software infrastructure. This would make it possible for clients to browse, purchase, and display digital art.

White House exposes stablecoin yield ban wouldn’t help banks, raising the stakes for CLARITY in the Senate
The report’s own projections show the ban barely nudges bank lending while putting stablecoin innovation and consumer yields on the line.

A recent White House economic study has changed the focus of Washington’s debate over the CLARITY Act. The report addresses the main issue slowing the bill in the Senate: whether limiting stablecoin yields actually protects the banking system.

The study’s findings are central to ongoing talks. After reviewing recent data on stablecoin activity, consumer habits, and bank liquidity, it found little proof that stablecoin yield products currently threaten bank lending or deposits.

Instead, the report said that banning yields would mostly limit consumers’ ability to earn returns on digital cash, while offering little or no real benefit to the stability of traditional funding.

This puts more pressure on those who support strict limits, especially since negotiations are already at a difficult stage.

The timing is important because CLARITY has entered a phase where broad support for federal market structure is no longer the main constraint. The unresolved question sits one level lower.

Washington’s key institutions increasingly agree that digital asset laws need a strong framework for custody, disclosures, registration, oversight, and clear roles for regulators.

The tougher debate is over the details of the framework, which will decide who benefits financially, who pays for compliance, and who controls the main channels for dollar liquidity.

The stablecoin yield issue is now the main point where these competing interests are being worked out.

This shift has been clear for months, but recent official comments have made it even more focused.

HIP-3 open interest tops $2 billion as demand for 24/7 tokenized equity exposure surges

On Hyperliquid, just three of the top 10 markets by volume are crypto pairs, while the rest are tokenized equity or commodity futures.

The following is excerpted from The Block's Data and Insights newsletter.

Open interest (OI) on Hyperliquid's HIP-3 markets hit a record high of $2.38 billion last week. As of Wednesday, Ol sits at slightly under $2.1 billion, still near its highs despite a 12% pullback likely tied to broader risk-off moves.

HIP-3's growth trajectory has been staggering, from just around $280 million in Ol at the beginning of the year to crossing $1 billion less than a month later and $2 billion by the end of the quarter. Year-to-date, HIP-3 Ol is up approximately 580%. TradeXYZ alone accounts for over 90% of all HIP-3 ΟΙ.

On the Hyperliquid platform itself, only three of the top 10 markets by volume are crypto pairs. The rest are tokenized equity and commodity futures such as Nasdaq proxies, oil, gold, silver, and the S&P 500.

The 24-hour trap: Why the UK’s new crypto rules could catch some firms off guard

The U.K.’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) is proposing crypto rules that could quietly expand the definition of custody, potentially sweeping in platforms and software providers that don’t consider themselves custodians.

The FCA published its Cryptoasset Perimeter Guidance on Wednesday, which includes a few technical traps for firms handling clients' crypto assets.

The rules draw a red line at the 24-hour mark for custody. Any firm or crypto platform or app holding client assets for longer than a day during trade settlement will likely fall under the regulated custodian classification, which triggers a requirement for a full safeguarding-license.

Validators and node operators also need to proceed with caution. The regulator warned those involved in those activities will lose their pure tech exemption the moment they provide “added value” features. That includes things like user dashboards, yields or reward-compounding tools. In those cases, they must seek full approval for arranging staking.

“Our new perimeter gives us the tools to strengthen protections for consumers and support fair, transparent and orderly markets as the sector matures,” the FCA stated in the paper.

Also noteworthy is that for the first time, the FC has addressed the “shadow custody” issue. The financial watchdog made it clear that if a crypto service provider allows it to theoretically override a client’s authority, it is officially a custodian even if it guarantees it will never exert that power.

“The fact that an arrangement involves smart contracts, public blockchains or some elements of decentralisation does not determine the perimeter position or place the arrangement outside of regulation,” the document noted.

For stablecoin issuers, the mandate is equally blunt as it considers issua
