#HSBC and the Standard Chartered-backed Anchorpoint Financial have been granted Hong Kong’s first stablecoin issuer licenses. Summary The Hong Kong Monetary Authority has granted the first stablecoin issuer licenses to HSBC and the Standard Chartered-backed venture Anchorpoint Financial. These initial approvals follow several months of delays after the regulator missed its original target to begin the licensing process in March. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) released the names of the successful applicants on Friday, signaling the start of a new era for regulated digital assets in the region.  Among the approved firms is HSBC, a dominant local note-issuing bank, alongside Anchorpoint Financial, which operates as a joint venture between Standard Chartered, Animoca Brands, and Hong Kong Telecommunications. Oversight and  enforcement standards  These approvals establish the first group of participants under a licensing regime that officially launched on Aug. 1, 2025.

Other obligations include following strict governance protocols and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) measures to remain in good standing. The Legislation also grants the regulator the authority to investigate potential violations and police the sector, including the authority to levy fines, suspend operations, or revoke licenses entirely if an issuer fails to meet its legal obligations. The rollout follows a period of administrative delays that saw the regulator miss its original goals for the year. Back in February, HKMA Chief Executive Eddie Yue stated that a “very small number of issuers” would be licensed by March.  While that deadline passed without an announcement, the regulator stated on April 1 that it was active

First Lady Melania Trump’s unexpected White House address forcefully denying any ties to disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein and her unprecedented call for congressional hearings for his victims has sparked a political firestorm.

In a surprise April 9 announcement, the first lady addressed reporters at the White House to categorically dismantle rumors regarding her past. She declared:

“The lies linking me with the disgraceful Jeffrey Epstein need to end today.”

However, the politically charged statement has failed to lift market sentiment around the MELANIA token.

The first lady also took aim at what she described as “mean-spirited attempts to defame my reputation” by individuals she called devoid of ethical standards.

Melania Trump's remarks were sweeping in their scope. She forcefully rebutted persistent online rumors that Epstein was the one who introduced her to Donald Trump.

XRP News: Iran's Hormuz Fees in Crypto? PetroDollar Architect Says 'Could Be Ripple'

Jim Rickards has spent decades at the intersection of intelligence, finance and geopolitical strategy. He was involved in the construction of the PetroDollar system in the 1970s.

Which makes what he said this week particularly interesting.

Discussing which currencies Iran might be using to collect its reported Bitcoin toll from oil tankers passing through the Strait of Hormuz, Rickards paused before answering. "Could be Bitcoin. Could be Tether. Could be, I mean, you know, Ripple.'

He listed Ripple alongside Bitcoin and Tether as a plausible medium for sovereign energy settlement.

The Context Matters

Rickards was discussing breaking news from the Financial Times reporting that Iran had begun charging vessels a toll to transit the Strait of Hormuz, with payment demanded in cryptocurrency. The exact currency was not specified in the original report. Rickards was working through the logical candidates in real time.

His analysis went further than just naming currencies. He pointed out that regardless of which cryptocurrency Iran uses, it is still pricing the toll in dollars. One dollar per barrel of oil is a dollar-denominated transaction settled in crypto, not an escape from the dollar system.

Tron Crypto Network Sees Noteworthy Spike In TVL

Aside from upcoming technical developments, the network has also been demonstrating significant activity. The lowest total value locked (TVL) that the network has recorded was $3.85 billion on 11 March.

Tron’s TVL clocked $4.96 billion as of 10 April (Friday), which was a $1.1 billion gain from its lowest figure in March. Such growth figures are not quite common during a market downturn.

A substantial amount of that upside was because the TRX price surged considerably during the last 4 weeks. However, a look at the Tron TVL in TRX form rather than in dollar denomination also revealed a surge from 12.84 billion TRX towards the end of March, to 15.48 TRX at press time.

Rising TVL often denotes growing confidence among the network’s users.  It may also signal that investors were making a comeback perhaps in anticipation of market recovery.

Ether Machine and Dynamix mutually scrap SPAC merger, blame 'unfavorable market conditions'
Dynamix Corporation and The Ether Machine announced Friday they have mutually terminated their planned business combination, citing unfavorable market conditions.

Under the Termination Agreement effective April 8, an unnamed “Payor” likely connected to The Ether Machine must pay Dynamix $50 million within 15 days.

Dynamix remains a SPAC and has until November 22, 2026 to find a new target or liquidate and return cash to shareholders.

The Ether Machine's path to the public markets via Dynamix Corporation is over. In a statement posted Friday night, the would-be ether treasury company said it had "mutually agreed to terminate" its previously announced Business Combination Agreement with the Nasdaq-listed SPAC, "effective immediately, as a result of unfavorable market conditions."

The deal, originally announced on July 21, 2025, would have taken The Ether Reserve LLC public through a combination with Dynamix, with the surviving entity trading under the ticker ETHM. At the time, the firm said it expected to launch with more than 400,000 ETH on its balance sheet, a sum now worth about $900 million, thanks largely to a 170,000 ETH contribution from co-founder and early Consensys member Andrew Keys. 

According to the 8-K filed by Dynamix with the SEC, the termination also unwinds the related Sponsor Support Agreement, ETHM Subscription Agreements, and Contribution Agreement.

The breakup is not without a consolation prize for Dynamix. A "Payor" identified on Annex A of the agreement, likely connected to The Ether Machine, is contractually obligated to wire $50 million to the SPAC within 15 days of the April 8 effective date.

Technical Analysis of Bittensor Price and Market Reaction

After the announcement, Bittensor price fell approximately 20% in the 24 hours. At press time, the TAO crypto price hovered around $263 on Friday, April 10. The crash comes after reaching highs of over $340 earlier in the session.

The downturn was accompanied by a sharp increase in trading activity with volumes increasing over 143%. Such high volumes serve as the evidence of aggressive selling and profit booking.

Technically, analysts had raised the red flag of declining momentum. Popular trader Cheds Trading observed the Bittensor price has fallen below its 200-day moving average, which may lead to a further pullback.

The second critical level under observation is around $250, which is in line with the 50-day moving average. In the meantime, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped to 41 indicating a weakening bullish energy.

Derivatives data shows a mixed sentiment. TAO futures went down as quickly as possible within various exchanges, indicating a lack of trust by traders in the short-term. Nonetheless, the activity on larger platforms was rather similar, implying ambivalent positioning of participants.

Bitcoin, broader market flat as U.S.-Iran negotiations begin

Bitcoin is trading below $73,000 on Saturday, down roughly 0.2% in 24 hours, as U.S. and Iranian officials opened high-level talks in Islamabad. The broader crypto market is mostly flat.

The market rose over the week after a two-week ceasefire was announced, triggering a derivatives short squeeze that wiped out over $430 million in bearish positions.
