Just one week after the U.S. passed its first comprehensive crypto legislation, the stablecoin market has added over $4 billion in fresh supply entering circulation.

It allows for new capital, new players, and a clear path forward for tokenized dollars.

JPMorgan Chase is reportedly exploring a new lending product that would allow clients to borrow against their crypto holdings.

While still in its exploratory phase, the product would be JPMorgan’s clearest signal yet that it is taking crypto seriously.

The SEC seems finally ready to take a decisive step. Several Bitcoin and Ethereum ETF issuers have just filed modifications to include in-kind redemptions. A key step for these products, which could thus gain in attractiveness and tax efficiency. This long-awaited regulatory breakthrough would radically transform the attractiveness of these financial products.

A historic milestone has been set in the regulation of cryptocurrencies. At the close of a strategic Crypto Week, the U.S. Congress adopted the GENIUS Act, which was promptly signed by Donald Trump.

For a sector long hindered by legal uncertainty, this text marks a clear shift towards the institutionalization of digital assets.

Tether, once allergic to regulation, now bows to Washington. Opportunism? Late awakening? Crypto is opening a highway... but watch out for the toll!

When Trump regulates cryptos and legalizes his own stablecoins, it smells like a full-on electoral strategy. But who will oversee the genius of the GENIUS Act? Not the children, apparently.

In Washington, crypto is taking shape: laws are being passed, Trump rejoices, and the Fed must put away its digital dreams. Regulation is turning into a soap opera with distinctly American twists.

Europe is not backing down. After MiCA, crypto companies must face a new wave of regulation driven by the European Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA).

Tether is doing well with 160 billion USDT, but beneath the stablecoin surface, audits are glaringly absent... and American senators are sharpening their legislative blades.

Donald Trump has just avoided a major political setback by rallying dissenters from his own camp.

On Tuesday, in a turn as unexpected as it is symbolic, the United States House of Representatives canceled crucial votes on two major cryptocurrency bills. This setback, occurring during the height of "Crypto Week," follows a procedural failure that exposes the deep political divisions surrounding the regulation of digital assets. While attention was focused on the imminent adoption of the "Clarity" and "GENIUS" texts, discussions are now stalled, casting uncertainty on the future of the U.S. crypto framework.

From geek to chosen one, Bitcoin is making its revolution. Wall Street sings its praises, Washington is stocking it up... What if gold had found something shinier than itself, but without the bars?

Tether is taking down its posters of abandoned blockchains to better align with crypto stars: while some lament Omni, others are already celebrating on Ethereum and Tron.

While Wall Street counts its points, Bitcoin takes the prize, ridicules the S&P 500, and shoots at full speed into the coffers of a stunned BlackRock. Who would have believed it?

Crypto is at a crossroads. Under the cold neon lights of the Capitol, the fate of a digital world is being decided with ink and calculations.

Three texts, three possible directions for the future of digital assets in the United States.

When ETFs fill up like broken pockets and bitcoin breaks through the ceiling, traditional markets wonder: have cryptos become acceptable to the suit-and-tie crowd?
