Former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson has called on U.S. policymakers to prepare an emergency response plan for a potential breakdown in demand for U.S. Treasurys, warning that the consequences could be severe. Summary The Former Treasury Secretary has warned U.S. authorities to prepare an emergency plan for a potential collapse in Treasury demand. Rising U.S. debt and higher yields have raised concerns about a feedback loop that could strain the financial system. Heavy Treasury exposure among stablecoin issuers like Tether has added risk for crypto markets during periods of stress. Speaking in a Bloomberg interview on Thursday, Paulson urged authorities to have a “break-the-glass” framework ready in advance, describing it as a targeted and short-term intervention designed for moments of extreme stress. “We need an emergency break-the-glass plan, which is targeted and short-term, on the shelf, so it’s ready to go when we hit the wall,” he said. “When we hit it, it will be vicious, so we have to prepare for that eventuality.” Concerns around the Treasury market have been building as U.S. government debt continues to climb past $39 trillion, raising questions about long-term sustainability and investor appetite.  You might also like: Circle faces lawsuit as $230M in stolen USDC moved across chains after Drift breach Treasurys remain the foundation of global finance, serving as the benchmark against which assets such as corporate bonds, mortgages, and equities are priced. Any disruption in that market risks cascading effects across the financial system. Economists have long warned of a potential feedback loop where rising debt levels push investors to demand higher yields, increasing borrowing costs, and increasing the fiscal deficit.

That helps explain the XRP ETF complex’s “perfect game” of inflows. Traditional ETF buyers, who are allocators inside 401(k) programs, advisers managing multi-asset portfolios, and individual investors using automated model strategies, tend to contribute steadily and sell sparingly.

Once XRP is sitting in a retirement account or as part of a monthly contribution plan, short-term news flow typically does not trigger redemptions.

So, for the first time in XRP’s history, a large share of demand is coming from buyers who have little interest in timing volatility

A six-month investigation backed by the  has revealed a serious security threat — over 100 individuals linked to North Korea secretly working داخل Web3 companies using fake identities.
The research, conducted under the Ketman Project, tracked suspicious GitHub activity and developer behavior, alerting 53 crypto teams that may have unknowingly hired these operatives.
🚨 What’s alarming?
These weren’t unskilled hackers. Many had real development experience and contributed to major DeFi protocols — blending in seamlessly for years.
🧠 How did they infiltrate?
Fake but credible developer profiles
Remote hiring via LinkedIn & interviews
Long-term GitHub contributions to build trust
Social engineering instead of complex hacks
🔗 Bigger picture:
Investigators linked these activities to the notorious , a state-backed group responsible for some of the largest crypto hacks in history — with an estimated $7B stolen since 2017.
⚠️ Key insight:
Most of these attacks weren’t technically advanced — just persistent. As blockchain investigator ZachXBT noted, “they’re not sophisticated, they’re relentless.”
🛡️ Red flags to watch:
Reused avatars or GitHub metadata
Mismatched system language vs claimed identity
Multiple accounts with overlapping behavior
Suspicious activity during screen sharing
This is a wake-up call for Web3:
The biggest vulnerability isn’t always the code — sometimes, it’s the people behind it.

Ad Disclosure XRP ETF activity is intensifying, and the numbers suggest institutional capital is beginning to engage more aggressively with the asset. A recent surge in trading volume across several XRP-linked exchange-traded funds has been highlighted by BankXRP, showing that activity across multiple issuers has expanded rapidly.XRP ETF Trading Activity Surges Past $26 MillionFresh trading data reveals a sharp increase in XRP ETF participation. According to figures shared by BankXRP, combined daily trading volume across XRP ETFs climbed to $26.02 million, marking a notable spike in activity across the sector. The largest share of this trading volume was captured by Bitwise Asset Management, whose XRP ETF recorded $11.14 million in daily turnover. The firm therefore controlled the majority of the day’s trading activity, reinforcing its position as a dominant issuer in the developing XRP ETF market.Related Reading: BlackRock Is Buying Up Bitcoin & Ethereum Again, And The Numbers Are StaggeringBehind Bitwise, Franklin Templeton posted $8.39 million in trading volume, securing the second-largest share of market participation among the ETF issuers tracked. 21Shares followed with $3.76 million, completing the top three contributors to the day’s total.Together, these figures illustrate how institutional access to XRP is becoming more structured through regulated investment vehicles. Rather than concentrating activity within a single product, the distribution of trading volume across multiple asset managers points to a broader ecosystem forming around XRP-based ETFs. This diversification across issuers is significant because it demonstrates that interest in XRP exposure is expanding beyond isolated market participants.

Ripple’s dollar stablecoin hits a wall in Japan, one of XRP’s friendliest markets, as megabanks earn most of the trust

Nomura’s latest survey suggests Japanese institutions trust stablecoins issued by major financial institutions most, a potential hurdle for RLUSD even in a market where XRP has long enjoyed unusual traction.

Japan has long been one of Ripple's most fertile markets. SBI's investment in Ripple dates to 2016, SBI Remit launched Japan's first XRP-enabled international remittance flow in 2021, and SBI VC Trade counts XRP among its most popular assets.

When Ripple and SBI announced in August 2025 that SBI VC Trade intended to distribute RLUSD in Japan, the move read as a natural extension of an already deep local partnership.

A recent survey of 518 investment professionals in Japan, conducted by Nomura and Laser Digital between December 2025 and January 2026 and released Apr. 16, found that 63% of respondents identified potential uses for stablecoins, spanning treasury management, cross-border payments, crypto investing, and tokenized securities.

Across JPY, USD, and EUR denominations, the stablecoins that drew the highest institutional trust were those issued by major financial institutions.

Japan may be Ripple's friendliest proving ground and precisely where the limits of crypto-branded stablecoins become visible.
Ripple's position in Japan goes beyond standard distribution agreements. SBI Ripple Asia, a joint venture formed from SBI's 2016 investment in Ripple, has operated as part of Ripple's regional infrastructure for nearly a decade.

SBI Remit began using Ripple Payments in 2017 and expanded XRP-based remittance corridors into the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia in September 2023.

SBI VC Trade's own investor materials describe XRP as one of its most popular crypto assets among customers.

Backing out The downfall of the NFT industry  Advertisement 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. Backing out 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.

This would make it possible for clients to browse, purchase, and display digital art.  Advertisement However, full due diligence was only completed after the operational handover since the nature of the deal was rather fast-paced.

The XRP Ledger (XRPL) is starting to look like a financial back end that traditional finance can adopt without changing itself too much.

This is because tokenized funds can sit on the ledger, and stablecoins can move across it. At the same time, protocol upgrades keep landing, including features designed for institutions that want on-chain settlement without open access to every counterparty.

However, the awkward part for XRP holders is that a thriving XRPL does not automatically translate into proportional demand for XRP.
