Латиноамериканский гигант электронной коммерции Mercado Libre запускает стейблкоин, привязанный к доллару США

cryptonews.ruPublicado em 2021-04-21Última atualização em 2024-08-21

Mercado Pago, цифровое банковское подразделение крупнейшей в Латинской Америке компании Mercado Libre (MELI), заявило в среду о запуске в Бразилии стейблкоина, привязанного к доллару США.

Компания заявила, что пользователи Mercado Pago в Бразилии смогут покупать и продавать стейблкоин Meli Dollar, используя остатки на счетах в бразильских реалах, без уплаты каких-либо комиссий. Продукт, как заявила фирма, «нацелен на предоставление практичного и стабильного варианта для финансового управления».

В августе 2022 года Mercado Libre запустила свою Криптовалюта Mercado Coin , чтобы позволить пользователям совершать покупки на торговой площадке и получать кэшбэк. До этого Mercado Libre интегрировала блокчейн-инфраструктуру Paxos с Mercado Pago чтобы позволить пользователям в Бразилии покупать, продавать и хранить Bitcoin, эфиры и стейблкоины Paxos, Pax Dollar (USDP).

Ripio, латиноамериканская Криптo , будет выступать в качестве маркет- Maker для транзакций, совершаемых на Mercado Pago, заявила компания. Ripio, которая управляет торговой платформой и кошельком в регионе, среди прочих услуг, сотрудничала с Mercado Pago для разработки Mercado Coin.

Этот шаг Mercado Libre предпринят примерно через ONE после того, как американская компания PayPal (PYPL) вывела на рынок свой долларовый стейблкоин PYUSD, рыночная капитализация которого за последние дни приблизилась к отметке в 1 миллиард долларов.

Sharplink Reports $394 Million Loss in Q2 Due to ETH Write-Downs, Severely Impacting Revenue

Sharplink (NASDAQ: SBET) reported a net loss of $394.3 million in Q2 2026, driven by a $321 million non-cash unrealized loss on its Ethereum holdings and a $76.1 million writedown on liquid staking tokens LsETH and weETH due to falling ETH prices. Despite these massive paper losses, which reflect US GAAP accounting adjustments, the company's revenue surged elevenfold to $11.5 million, with $11.2 million coming from ETH staking rewards. Sharplink increased its ETH holdings to roughly 888,938 ETH by early August and completed a $75 million stock offering, using part of the proceeds to purchase more ETH.

Bitcoin Withstood 10 Bearish Blows in 2026, Yet Experienced Its Mildest Bear Market

Bitcoin, the leading cryptocurrency by market cap, peaked above $126,000 in early October before entering a prolonged decline. By August, it was mainly trading between $63,000 and $65,400, inflicting losses on late buyers but resulting in what is, historically for Bitcoin, an unusually shallow bear market—down about 49% from its peak, compared to typical 75-80% plunges. Throughout 2026, Bitcoin faced multiple headwinds yet demonstrated notable resilience. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and volatile oil prices revived inflation concerns but failed to trigger the panic-driven sell-offs seen in prior cycles. A significant psychological blow came from corporate seller MicroStrategy, a longtime accumulator, which began strategic sales to bolster its cash position, reducing its holdings. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs also faced sustained outflows, though a late-week inflow hinted at potential relief. Pressure also came from within the ecosystem. A contentious blockchain proposal, BIP-110, failed after a minority chain stalled. Miners, facing tighter economics, sold reserves and pivoted infrastructure toward AI. A major security breach involving Coldcard hardware wallets saw an estimated 2,000 BTC stolen, shaking confidence in self-custody. Long-term threats like quantum computing resurfaced in discussions. Despite this confluence of corporate selling, ETF outflows, miner capitulation, geopolitical shocks, internal conflict, and security issues—any one of which could historically cause sharp declines—Bitcoin stubbornly held above a key $60,000 support level. Deeper market liquidity, regulated products, and long-term holders appear to be absorbing selling pressure that once would have caused deeper crashes. This resilience suggests a maturing market structure, though risks remain. Another shock could still push Bitcoin toward $50,000. For now, its 49% decline, severe for most assets, is relatively moderate by Bitcoin's own volatile standards. The remaining months of 2026 will test whether $60,000 is a durable floor or merely the next major line of defense.

Trump-Linked American Bitcoin Stock Soars After $1.9 Million Insider Buy

American Bitcoin (NASDAQ: ABTC) shares surged after insider buying. Board member Justin Mateen, co-founder of Tinder, purchased approximately $1.93 million worth of shares over two days in early August. Following the purchases, ABTC stock rose about 10% in 24 hours to $7.11. Mateen's buy is reportedly the largest insider purchase at the company in the past year. Insider ownership stands at about 7.1%. Analysts' ratings are mixed, with consensus being "Hold" and an average price target of $45. Despite the recent uptick, ABTC shares remain down over 95% from their post-IPO high. The company recently executed a 1-for-15 reverse stock split to maintain its Nasdaq listing. It reported a Q2 2025 net loss of $57.2 million, an improvement from Q1, driven partly by an $71.1 million loss on its Bitcoin holdings despite mining a record 932 BTC. American Bitcoin now holds over 8,300 BTC, ranking 16th among public corporate holders.

Company Bitfarms, successor to Bitfarms, suspends all its mining operations in the US, as $141 million loss is directed to fund AI development

Bitcoin mining company Keel Infrastructure, formerly known as Bitfarms, has shut down all its U.S. mining sites and sold 1,085 BTC for $75 million. The company, which rebranded after acquiring Bitfarms in April, is repurposing these sites into data centers for artificial intelligence. In its Q2 report, Keel posted a $141 million operating loss, partly due to depreciation. Revenue from continuing operations was $30 million, half of the previous year's figure, attributed to lower Bitcoin prices and the shutdown of a major mining site. Despite the loss, the company holds $819 million in liquidity, boosted by a recent convertible note offering. This shift is part of a broader industry trend where public miners are pivoting assets toward AI and high-performance computing deals.

Korean Financial Supervisory Service to Revise Compensation System for Phishing Losses Involving Crypto Transfer

The South Korean Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) is overhauling its system for reimbursing victims of voice phishing scams. Starting in October, the new system will be able to calculate and compensate losses held in cryptocurrency, not just in Korean won. Previously, the reimbursement system assumed stolen funds were in won, failing to fully compensate victims whose money was converted into digital assets. The upgraded software will apply a recovery ratio to determine the specific type and quantity of tokens owed to each victim, based on the token's value at the time the payment was frozen. It will also better track cases where fraud proceeds are split across multiple accounts and later consolidated. These changes follow March 31st amendments to the Act on Reimbursement of Losses from Telecommunications Fraud, which now classify virtual assets as both damaged and recoverable property. Major Korean crypto exchanges like Upbit and Bithumb must now comply with the same anti-phishing obligations as banks, including verifying transaction purposes and tracking suspicious funds. The revised law takes effect October 1st, with the FSS allocating a three-month period and a budget of 118.53 million won for system implementation and troubleshooting. The update addresses schemes where stolen money is intentionally laundered through cryptocurrency for overseas transfer. Notably, telecom fraud losses in South Korea rose 14.1% to 433.8 billion won in 2025, a five-year high.
