A Depegging and a Tweet: When the U.S. President Begins to 'Legislate Escort' for His Family Business

A brief depegging incident involving the USD1 stablecoin, issued by Trump-affiliated World Liberty Financial (WLFI), and a subsequent social media post by former President Donald Trump urging Congress to pass the GENIUS Act—a key crypto regulatory bill—have drawn scrutiny over potential conflicts of interest. On February 23, 2026, USD1 temporarily depegged to $0.994 amid what WLFI called a “coordinated attack.” Shortly after, WLFI transferred over $17 million worth of its native tokens to exchanges, raising market suspicions. At the same time, Trump publicly advocating for the GENIUS Act, which would establish a federal framework for stablecoins—a move that directly benefits his family’s crypto venture. WLFI, which is partly owned by Trump entities and received a $500 million investment from an Abu Dhabi-linked firm, faces ongoing congressional investigations over governance and foreign influence concerns. Critics argue that Trump’s dual role as policy advocate and private beneficiary blurs ethical and constitutional lines. The situation underscores structural challenges in regulating an industry when key decision-makers also stand to gain financially from its legal and market framework.

South Korea moves to block USDT and USDC from corporate trading – Details

South Korea's Financial Services Commission (FSC) is moving to exclude USD-based stablecoins like USDT and USDC from its upcoming corporate crypto trading guidelines. This decision aims to prevent indiscriminate investments in the early market stages and is partly due to the current legal framework not recognizing stablecoins as a valid external payment method. The proposed rules will allow eligible firms to invest up to 5% of their capital in crypto, but only in top assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum, traded through regulated exchanges. This aligns with South Korea's broader push to promote the Korean Won-pegged stablecoins and reduce reliance on the U.S. dollar, a trend also emerging in other countries like China and Russia.

Solana’s 755% Surge Shows That Users Are Coming Back To The Table

A new Messari report highlights Solana's remarkable resurgence, with its Total Payment Volume (TPV) surging 755% year-over-year, far outpacing competitors like Ethereum and traditional fintech giants. This growth signals a strong return of users and developers to the ecosystem, driven by Solana's high-speed, low-cost infrastructure that settles transactions in milliseconds for a fraction of a cent. The network is seeing renewed institutional interest as well, with Solana Spot ETFs recording nearly $40 million in inflows over a week, led by Bitwise's fund. Despite broader market pressures, these metrics indicate that Solana is aggressively positioning itself as a backbone for global payments.

Solana – What to expect when bullish fundamentals meet bearish market reality

Tokenized gold trading volumes surged to record highs amid recent U.S.-Iran tensions, potentially positioning Solana as a major beneficiary due to its fast network and strong infrastructure. Institutional interest in Solana has grown, supported by ETF inflows, payment sector adoption, and the positive impact of the CLARITY Act. However, despite strong long-term fundamentals, the current bear market is exerting significant pressure. Key on-chain metrics, including a spike in Coin Days Destroyed and increased exchange inflows, suggest rising sell pressure. Additionally, long-term holders have recently begun selling, indicating a likely continuation of bearish momentum. Short-term price movement above $100 appears unlikely, as holders are expected to take profits amid the downturn.

Ethereum Under Pressure As Researchers Issue Critical Report

Culper Research has taken a short position on Ethereum, issuing a critical report that questions the network's long-term health. The report argues that the Fusaka Upgrade significantly expanded blockspace, causing transaction fees to drop by nearly 90%, which in turn weakens validator economics and staking rewards. It also alleges that recent transaction growth and new wallet creation are largely driven by spam and address-poisoning attacks rather than genuine adoption, with dusting-related activity accounting for 22.5% of all ETH transactions. Additionally, competition from Solana and reports of Vitalik Buterin selling 19,000 ETH have added to bearish sentiment. Despite these concerns, some commentators note that Ethereum’s design allows for future protocol changes to address economic issues.

Pantera Capital: What Changes Have We Made as Crypto Becomes a Service?

Pantera Capital outlines the industry's evolution from "crypto as an industry" to "crypto as a service," predicting 2026 as the pivotal year. The focus shifts from blockchain-centric hype to seamless integration, where technology becomes invisible to users while solving real-world problems efficiently. Key trends include crypto's structural advantages, like 24/7 markets outperforming traditional finance during geopolitical events, and Asia's growing dominance in areas like stablecoin-based cross-border payments, tokenization, and DeFi perpetual trading. The fund’s investment strategy reflects this shift: Novig disrupts sports betting with a P2P model that drastically improves user payouts; Based offers a seamless consumer super-app abstracting complex blockchain interactions; and Doppler provides institutional-grade infrastructure for asset issuance. Other focus areas include real-world asset tokenization, AI agents leveraging blockchain for verifiable data, and agent-based payments. The advice to founders is clear: prioritize solving tangible problems over showcasing technology, as true adoption happens when the tech becomes invisible yet indispensable.

Aave’s revenue surges despite DAO turmoil – Is lending DeFi’s backbone now?

Despite internal governance turmoil, Aave has demonstrated strong and consistent revenue growth, underscoring the resilience of lending protocols as a stable revenue engine within DeFi. While speculative sectors like DEXs and NFTs experience volatility, Aave generated $1.62 million in daily fees and $82.14 million over 30 days, supported by $32.4 billion in TVL. Its stablecoin utilization rates remain near 60–70%, reflecting sustained borrowing demand rather than speculative activity. With cumulative revenue approaching $145 million over the past year and over $1 trillion in total loan volume, Aave continues to function as DeFi’s core on-chain credit infrastructure, facilitating trading, arbitrage, and treasury management activities.

Crypto Gets A Boost In Trump’s New National Cyber Strategy

President Trump's new national cyber strategy includes a brief but significant mention of cryptocurrency and blockchain, framing them as technologies the government must "protect and secure." The document directs agencies to both bolster security around these systems and disrupt criminal uses, such as money laundering. Industry observers view the inclusion as a symbolic step that brings blockchain into federal cyber planning for the first time, though some caution it may also justify stricter enforcement. The strategy aligns crypto with other tech priorities like AI and quantum computing. While the immediate practical impact may be limited, the recognition could shift internal government priorities, potentially leading to more resources for securing blockchain infrastructure and industry partnerships. The move represents formal acknowledgment rather than a policy overhaul, leaving agencies to determine its ultimate significance for innovation and enforcement.

‘You’ll burn down your home?’ – Trump crypto advisor slams banks’ position on CLARITY Act

Banks are opposing the CLARITY Act, fearing that stablecoins offering over 5% rewards will cause deposit flight. The White House is pushing for compromise, but banking representatives argue it would harm local lending. Trump’s crypto advisor, Patrick Witt, warns that banks' refusal to compromise could be "catastrophic," comparing it to an arsonist burning their own home. He notes that even without the CLARITY Act, stablecoin rewards will continue under the existing GENIUS Act. Stablecoins have become a major buyer of U.S. Treasury bills, purchasing $153 billion as of 2025. The impasse continues, though markets still see a 71% chance of the bill passing this year.

What’s Driving Bitcoin And Ethereum Prices – And Why Investors Should Be Watchful

Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have declined significantly due to institutional and fundamental concerns. Bitcoin fell below $70,000, driven by a reversal in spot Bitcoin ETF flows, with outflows of $228 million on March 5 and over $348 million the following day. Broader market sell-offs, large-volume BTC sales by major holders, and selling pressure from exchanges like Binance and Coinbase contributed to the slump. Analysts predict further declines to between $60,000 and $48,000. Ethereum dropped below $2,000 amid criticism of its token economics. Short-selling firm Culper Research warned that the Fusaka upgrade expanded block capacity faster than demand, leading to low-value transactions and reduced validator earnings. The upgrade also coincided with a surge in address-poisoning attacks, resulting in an estimated $87 million in losses. Culper has shorted ETH, labeling it a "broken token" with little future economic value.
