China Continued Trimming Exposure to US Debt in AprilNumbers emanating from the U.S. Treasury Department confirm that China is consistently reducing its exposure to U.S. debt, as the Asian nation shed some of its treasuries during April. China sold $8.2 billion of its U.S. treasury stash and is currently holding $757 billion still, even if it has reached its lowest exposure to U.S. papers in 16 years. While a reduction of nearly 1.5% cannot be considered game-changing, April marks the second month in a row that China sheds exposure to the American debt papers. In June, China lightened its U.S. Treasury holdings by $18.9 billion, falling to the third place among U.S. debt holders. As this conflict evolves, Chinese analysts have voiced their concerns about the possibility of these holdings being weaponized with a sanctions scheme. Wang Xin, director general of the People’s Bank of China research bureau, stated that there had been developments by other nations already heading in this direction. Nonetheless, even with a recent downgrade from Moody’s, which highlighted the troubled status of the Federal Debt, total U.S. Treasury holdings are near all-time high numbers, with holders stashing $9.01 trillion in bills, bonds, and notes of different maturities. While private investors chose to sell these treasuries in April, official institutions purchased $1.5 billion, showing the continued trust of central banks in U.S. debt, even with the current troubled outlook for the country’s economy. #QueencryptoNews #Dogecoin‬⁩ #Binance #MegadropLista #xmucan

China Defies US Sanctions on Oil Refiners With Sweeping Non-Compliance OrderChina has moved to defend its commercial interests in the current trade battle it is waging against the U.S., and the extent of its sanctions against Chinese entities. On May 2, the Chinese Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) issued a resolution invoking a series of documents collectively referred to as the Blocking Statute to counter the unilateral sanctions imposed by the U.S. government on five local oil refiners. According to the Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC), Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refining & Chemical, Shandong Shouguang Luqing Petrochemical, Shandong Jincheng Petrochemical Group, Hebei Xinhai Chemical Group, and Shandong Shengxing Chemical provide “a vital source of revenue to the Iranian regime and its armed forces” by acquiring the majority of Iran’s oil. Nonetheless, after conducting an assessment, MOFCOM determined that these sanctions constitute “an improper extraterritorial application of foreign laws and measures.” The institution called to ignore these designations “to safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests, and to protect the legitimate rights and interests of Chinese citizens.” The application of these measures might put companies operating in both countries “between a rock and a hard place,” according to Henry Gao, Professor at SMU Yong Pung How School of Law, as they will have to comply with U.S. or Chinese regulations and lose one of these large markets. #Megadrop #JohnCarl #Binance #VANREY #xmucan

China's US Treasury Holdings Fell to Lowest Level Since 2009 in MayThe trade policies of the Trump administration have hurt the standing of the U.S. debt around the world, principally with heavy treasury holders like China that have been directly affected by these measures. According to recent data published by the U.S. Treasury, Chinese holdings of U.S. treasuries fell to a new low since 2009, with the Chinese government reducing its exposure by nearly $1 billion from the number reported in April. While this might not be seen as a significant drop by some analysts, others claim that it signals a new direction in the Chinese policy towards acquiring American foreign debt, amidst the dangers of retaliation if trade negotiations go south. In March, China reduced its exposure to the U.S. debt by nearly $19 billion, falling to the third place among the top holders of treasuries behind Japan and the U.K., while it sold $8.2 billion of its American debt stash in April Despite the continued selling and ongoing trade tensions between the two nations, China still holds $756.3 billion in U.S. securities, which contradicts the theory that the Chinese government is weaponizing these assets. Nonetheless, the offloading moves echo the recommendations of Chinese analysts about diversifying the exposure from these potentially risky assets to less troubled commodities, including safe havens like gold and other metals. The U.S. government’s measures have driven debt holders worldwide to adjust their exposures, driving a substitution of international investors for local buyers. While foreign buyers held 57% of the treasury issuance in 2008, this number has fallen to 32%, signaling potential trust issues in the proficiency of the current administration in dealing with the spiraling debt issue. #LISTAAirdrop #kdmrcrypto #Binance #NOTCOİN #xmucan

Ron Paul Calls Washington’s ‘Biggest Boom’ a Debt-Fueled Sugar HighLiberty advocate Ron Paul argued that booms built on monetary “stimulus” end the old-fashioned way—with bankruptcies, inflation, and a painful reset—because fake growth demands a real correction. If this is the “biggest” boom, he warned, the payback could be proportionate. He traced the cycle to the post-2008 era of zero rates and quantitative easing, calling today’s cheerleading a rerun of past bubbles. Rosini took aim at a presidential habit: brag about the stock market on the way up, pretend it doesn’t matter on the way down. He said inflation denial has migrated from one administration to the next, while household bills tell an entirely different story. With rate cuts expected, he said, higher prices are likely to linger—another reason the current expansion looks contrived. Beyond the macro, Paul said the system isn’t “capitalism” so much as cronyism—a patchwork of interventions sold as democracy but steered by 51% coalitions and special interest groups. The result, he stressed, is pressure on Congress to keep the spending flowing, even when lawmakers know better. Interventionism, in his telling, is a bipartisan sport dressed up as unity. Tariffs were Exhibit A. Paul called them immoral and economically backward because consumers foot the bill. Using a sneakers example, he argued protectionism punishes shoppers with higher prices while rewarding favored producers. “Tariffs are taxes,” he said, and even without the levy, foreign suppliers would raise prices in response to U.S. barriers—costs that ultimately land on buyers Rosini added numbers to the critique, citing roughly $219 billion collected via tariffs and a Goldman Sachs estimate that Americans eat 86% of the tab—money that barely dents deficits while matching outlays such as U.S. funding aid to foreign countries. He said breathless claims about multi-trillion-dollar investment pledges are, for now, rhetoric outpacing the economic realities. The pair said demagoguery thrives because people expect short-term gains, while lobbyists grease the machinery. Paul argued the United States lives in a permanent “mixed” economy—part corporatism, part central planning—where both parties enlarge the state in a relay. The true fix, he remarked, is a return to constitutional limits, sound money, and free market exchange. Still, they ended on a glass-half-full note: ideas matter, and better economics can spread quickly once the costs of intervention bite hard enough. Citing groups teaching Austrian principles, Paul said public opinion can pivot fast—Covid-19 policies being a recent case study. Until then, Paul and Rosini urged vigilance and less cheerleading from the political class. They framed that pivot as achievable if voters reward restraint over grand, crowd-pleasing promises from either party instead. #Quark #GamingCoins #BTC #xmucan #hottrendingtopics

BOJ Hike Watch: Why Japan’s Next Move Has Traders on Edge WorldwideLast week, the U.S. Federal Reserve trimmed the federal funds rate by a quarter point, and markets are now betting that the January Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting delivers no adjustment. Attention has since shifted to the Bank of Japan (BOJ), where expectations are building that the central bank will lift its short-term interbank rate next week. Japan’s central bank is set to convene its Monetary Policy Meeting (MPM) on Dec. 18–19, 2025, with the decision expected on the second day. Markets are bracing for a possible increase to 0.75% from 0.5%, a move that would formally close the chapter on the world’s last remaining negative interest rate regime. When it comes to interest rates, Japan has long stood apart as a global outlier. The BOJ has persisted with negative short-term rates and tight control over long-term bond yields through its Yield Curve Control (YCC) framework, even as other major central banks moved on to rate increases. Many analysts believe this marks the definitive end of the “Carry Trade.” In simple terms, the strategy involved borrowing low-cost yen and deploying it into higher-yielding assets overseas. The trade only holds together as long as yen funding stays exceptionally cheap and the currency remains steady or drifts lower. At present, leading prediction markets Polymarket and Kalshi are signaling strong odds that the BOJ will deliver a 25 basis point (bps) increase. Polymarket traders are overwhelmingly penciling in a quarter-point rate increase from the BOJ, with probabilities hovering near 98%. Every other scenario — no change, a larger move, or a cut — has been largely cast aside, each sitting at 2% or lower, reflecting a near lock that a quarter-point step is the market’s central expectation. Kalshi traders echo that conviction. A 21–40 basis-point hike at the BOJ meeting next week carries roughly 95% odds, while the chances of no change rest near 2% and a cut barely registers at under 1%. In plain terms, the market is wagering that Japan’s central bank is ready to act. For Federal Reserve rate decisions, traders can lean on the CME Fedwatch tool to gauge expectations ahead of each meeting, while there is no comparable tool for tracking BOJ rate moves. However, to estimate the odds of a BOJ hike, individuals or institutions can look to futures pricing — specifically 3-Month TONA futures, which capture how traders are wagering on future interest rates. At present, the implied average rate blends the current 0.5% for the early part of the period with the possibility of a higher level later on. When that figure is weighed against today’s rate and adjusted for timing, the calculation points to roughly an 89% chance of a quarter-point increase. Many believe this particular rate increase may affect equities and crypto assets. U.S. stocks ended lower on Friday across the board, led by a sharp Nasdaq drop of nearly 400 points. The Dow, S&P 500, and NYSE Composite also closed in the red. In Japan, data shows the Nikkei closing near 50,800 and the Topix around 3,420, pointing to broad gains after a session that opened with uneven trading. Some observers now expect bitcoin to retreat on a BOJ rate hike, a view gaining traction on X as users circulate the theory. “Bank of Japan is set to hike rates +25 bps on Dec 19. Japan = largest holder of US government debt,” one user wrote. “Every BoJ rate hike → Bitcoin dumps over 20%+” Another user, sharing a chart, added: “Japan rate hikes’ effect on bitcoin—The next one is most likely on Friday, 19th.” That view has fueled speculation that the move could act as another trigger pushing BTC toward the $75,000 range. Whether that scenario plays out remains an open question and will not be answered until the BOJ makes its move. BTC is already down 29% from its $126,000-plus all-time high, and another hit to its valuation could prove painful. Theories like these are scattered widely across X and other social media platforms. For now, markets remain in wait-and-see mode, with the BOJ holding the final card. Prediction markets, futures pricing, and social media chatter all point to a rate hike, but conviction does not equal certainty. If Japan does move, global ripples are likely, testing everything from equity momentum to bitcoin’s resolve. Until that decision lands, traders are left navigating probabilities, not outcomes, and positioning for a moment that could reset expectations fast. #PEPEATH #kdmrcrypto #VeChainNodeMarketplace #BinanceHerYerde #xmucan

UAE Quits OPEC After 59 Years, BTC Slides Below $76K Amid Hormuz Supply ShockThe UAE joined OPEC in 1967 through Abu Dhabi and continued as a unified state after 1971. Its departure removes the cartel’s third-largest producer, behind Saudi Arabia and Iraq, and ranks among the most consequential exits in the group’s history, following Qatar’s departure in 2019The UAE joined OPEC in 1967 through Abu Dhabi and continued as a unified state after 1971. Its departure removes the cartel’s third-largest producer, behind Saudi Arabia and Iraq, and ranks among the most consequential exits in the group’s history, following Qatar’s departure in 2019 The UAE’s official state news agency WAM published the withdrawal statement, citing national interest and a shift in long-term energy strategy. “This decision reflects the UAE’s long-term strategic and economic vision and evolving energy profile, including accelerated investment in domestic energy production,” WAM stated. The exit takes effect May 1. Bitcoin had been trading near weekly highs of $79,486 before the announcement, lifted in prior sessions by ceasefire hopes and risk-on momentum. After the UAE news broke, BTC dropped sharply, trading below the $76,000 range as traders moved away from risk assets. Altcoins fell alongside it, and total crypto market capitalization registered notable losses on the day. BTC hit an intraday low of $75,674 on Bitstamp The sell-off was not driven by a single trigger. Geopolitical pressure from the ongoing Iran conflict, now in its ninth week, has severely disrupted the Strait of Hormuz, the chokepoint for roughly 20% of global oil and LNG trade. Analysts estimate 9 to 13 million barrels per day in regional output have been affected, pushing Brent crude above $110 and WTI past $100 per barrel. Bitcoin, which had risen alongside risk sentiment tied to ceasefire talks, pulled back as that narrative stalled. The UAE announcement initially caused oil prices to pare gains. Brent trimmed from highs near $110 to $111 to $104, and West Texas Intermediate (WTI) settled around $98 as traders factored in the prospect of increased UAE production once supply routes normalize. That dynamic created conflicting signals for bitcoin. Lower oil prices and reduced inflation pressure are generally positive for risk assets over time, but the near-term read was uncertainty, and traders sold first. Energy Minister Suhail Al Mazrouei described the withdrawal as a sovereign national decision following an internal review. No prior consultation with other OPEC members was reported. The move follows years of friction between the UAE and OPEC+ over output limits. ADNOC, the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, has expanded capacity toward 4.85 to 5 million barrels per day ahead of 2027, but quota limits have often held actual production to around 3 million barrels per day. That gap surfaced as a public dispute in 2021 and generated departure rumors in 2023 that the UAE denied at the time. WAM acknowledged the current supply strains while framing the exit as forward-looking. “While near-term volatility, including disruptions in the Arabian Gulf and the Strait of Hormuz, continues to affect supply dynamics, underlying trends point to sustained growth in global energy demand over the medium to long term,” the agency stated. Officials also signaled measured output increases post-exit. “Following its exit, the UAE will continue to act responsibly, bringing additional production to market in a gradual and measured manner, aligned with demand and market conditions,” WAM said. The statement did not frame the departure as a break with OPEC’s membership. “We reaffirm our appreciation for the efforts of both OPEC and the OPEC+ alliance and wish them success. However, the time has come to focus our efforts on what our national interest dictates,” WAM stated. The UAE move could eventually be constructive for bitcoin. Greater energy supply flexibility, reduced inflation pressure, and a gradual shift away from petrodollar dynamics could support risk assets once Hormuz-related disruptions ease. In the short term, traders are watching oil price trajectories and any formal OPEC response. Bitcoin’s trajectory from here depends partly on how quickly those routes reopen and whether energy markets interpret the UAE’s post-OPEC production plans as supply relief or added volatility. #cryptouniverseofficial #NOTCOİN #xmucan #cryptouniverseofficial #Shibalnu

High- volume CEX listings on Binance and Coinbase gave sellers deep exit liquidity, amplifying the decline. On the price chart, MEGA is trading below all major short-term moving averages on the 1-hour and 4-hour timeframes. The 50-period moving average (MA) near $0.16 to $0.17 is acting as dynamic resistance.

Immediate support sits at $0.134 to $0.136. A close above $0.156 on the 4-hour chart would be the first signal that buyers are stepping in. Failure to hold $0.134 opens a path toward $0.12 to $0.13. If MEGA breaks those foundations, there’s a chance a slide below the TGE price could happen. Despite the price weakness, onchain data tells a different story. MegaETH’s total value locked (TVL) climbed toward $600 million after launch, placing it among the top 15 L2 networks by TVL, according to defillama.com stats. That capital inflow occurred alongside the token sell-off, meaning real usage and ecosystem activity are running independently of near-term price action. The longer-term case hinges on whether performance-gated tokenomics can limit dilution and whether TVL growth converts into sustained demand for MEGA. As USDM approaches its next target, the impending unlock draws closer by the day. The short-term picture remains bearish, and the asset carries only 72 hours of price history, making all technical signals highly sensitive to noise.

Everything Co-Founder: DeFi Can Rival TradFi Through Architectural Superiority, Not Risky CollateralIn the current market landscape, trading on a centralized platform feels like driving on a paved highway, while decentralized trading can often feel like navigating a series of disconnected toll roads. Centralized exchanges ( CEXs) benefit from unified order books, where all global buy and sell interest is concentrated in one engine. This density allows for razor-thin spreads and minimal slippage. In contrast, decentralized exchange ( DEX) users often pay what can be described as a “sovereignty tax.” The rise of Layer 2 ( L2) scaling solutions—while necessary for reducing costs—has inadvertently sharded liquidity. Instead of one deep pool of capital, liquidity is split across various networks, making it difficult for any single DEX to rival the depth of a major CEX. However, this fragmentation is not a fixed ceiling. As Jean Rausis, co-founder of Everything (formerly Smardex), suggests, “Existing and newly developed L2s are continuously reducing friction.” A major hurdle for decentralized platforms is the sheer execution speed of their centralized counterparts. For many, the slight lag in a DEX is a manageable trade-off for a fundamental human right in the digital age: control over one’s own assets. “In terms of speed and liquidity depth it will be a challenge to come close to the execution speed and low impact of a CEX,” Rausis said. Yet, he emphasizes that this comes with a distinct advantage. “At the costs of a fraction of the execution speed you get a fundamental right in return: custodianship of your funds. As a CEX user you will always depend on the willingness and viability of the exchange to trust your funds are safe The fragility of decentralized protocols is often exposed during high- volatility events. Unlike centralized giants that maintain deep insurance funds, on-chain protocols can fall victim to liquidation cascades. This was vividly illustrated in October 2025, when a market shock triggered $19.35 billion in liquidations within a 24-hour window. In these scenarios, a chain reaction of forced sells can drain a protocol’s entire liquidity pool before the market has a chance to stabilize. According to Rausis, the vulnerability lies in how these protocols interact with the outside world. “Two key elements of a flash crash liquidation cascade are external pricing and their subsequent immediate liquidations causing manipulated prices to wipe out an otherwise healthy pool,” he said. To prevent these cascades without resorting to centralized circuit breakers, Rausis, whose platform has introduced a unified DeFi pre-market liquidity pool, argues that “removing the oracle pricing is the best prevention against this type of forced selling.” By allowing the on-chain pool to determine its own pricing and utilizing a time-weighted average price (TWAP) mechanism, protocols ensure assets are only liquidated when the real price has crossed a threshold, rather than being triggered by a flash crash of seconds. Beyond safety, the next frontier for decentralized finance ( DeFi) is capital efficiency—specifically in the realm of perpetuals. Traditional finance (TradFi) has long held the crown for efficient capital use, often leading DeFi protocols to reduce collateral ratios to dangerous levels just to compete. Rausis argues that DeFi does not need to mimic these risky ratios to win. Instead, “ DeFi perpetuals are able to rival TradFi in capital efficiency through architectural superiority.” He points to the use of unified liquidity pools, where “a single capital deployment can simultaneously earn yield as it serves as collateral for margin trading.” By moving away from siloed capital and toward these multi-purpose pools, DeFi can create a more robust system.

However, as L2s continue to mature and architectural innovations like unified liquidity and TWAP-based pricing become the standard, the disadvantages of DEXs are becoming less of a barrier and more of a manageable trade-off for the ultimate prize: financial autonomy and the security of self-custody. Meanwhile, Rausis revealed that Everything opted to raise capital through a public dynamic funding round rather than institutional investors because of the difficulty in finding “valuable partners in the current crypto space that will not abuse the power they feel they have by demanding preferential terms.” This funding approach, he added, allows the community to participate in swapping, lending, and margin trading from day one while the market determines the project’s fair value. #ETHETFsApproved #UNIUSDT #xmucan #kdmrcrypto #ONDO‬⁩

Leading Iranian crypto exchange Nobitex was founded by sons of elite political family tied to supremNobitex, the dominant crypto exchange in Iran, was founded by two brothers from the Kharrazi family, a clan related by marriage to all three supreme leaders of the Islamic Republic, according to a lengthy Reuters investigation published Friday. Reuters reported that brothers Ali and Mohammad Kharrazi registered the company in 2018 using the surname Aghamir Mohammad Ali, a name they used in corporate filings, university life and a Nobitex marketing brochure, while other relatives publicly use the Kharrazi name. The brothers founded the company alongside chief executive Amir Hosein Rad, who is not related to the family. Their grandfather reportedly sat on the Assembly of Experts, the body that selects Iran's supreme leader, and once tutored Mojtaba Khamenei, who succeeded his father Ali Khamenei as supreme leader after the Feb. 28 U.S. and Israeli airstrike. Their father, Ayatollah Bagher Kharrazi, founded the Iranian political organization Hezbollah, distinct from the Lebanese militia, and according to Reuters helped staff the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) after the 1979 revolution. Reuters said it traced the link by cross-referencing Iranian corporate, government and banking records, and noted that the email address used to register the Nobitex domain in 2017 contained the Kharrazi name and was also used for a religious charity chaired by the brothers' father. In a statement to Reuters, Nobitex denied any government affiliation, said the brothers had not changed their identity and characterized any illicit funds moving through the platform as a "very small fraction of overall volume" that occurred without management's awareness. Iran's government did not respond to requests for comment from Reuters The exchange claims roughly 11 million users and handles about 70% of Iran's crypto activity, according to figures cited in the Reuters report. The Block has previously covered Nobitex's outsized role in the country's sanctioned crypto ecosystem, including $11 billion in lifetime inflows tracked by Chainalysis. Estimates of illicit volume on Nobitex vary widely across blockchain analytics firms. Reuters cited Elliptic identifying around $366 million in suspect flows, Chainalysis estimating closer to $68 million, and Crystal Intelligence pointing to roughly $22 million in direct transfers from sanctioned wallets. All three firms told Reuters the true figures are likely higher. A separate Elliptic analysis cited by Reuters found that wallets controlled by the Central Bank of Iran sent about $347 million to Nobitex in the first half of 2025, part of a larger central bank crypto buying program Elliptic has previously documented. Reuters also reported that one of Nobitex's largest early backers, Mohammad Bagher Nahvi, is vice chairman of Safiran Airport Services, a company sanctioned by the U.S. Treasury in September 2022 for coordinating flights tied to Iranian drone shipments to Russia. A 2025 spat between disgraced Iranian businessman Babak Zanjani and the Central Bank of Iran inadvertently exposed wallet addresses that allowed Crystal Intelligence and another analyst to identify at least $20 million in central bank funds that had been routed through Nobitex, according to Reuters Nobitex has continued processing transactions throughout the ongoing U.S.-Israeli war in Iran, even during the nationwide internet blackout imposed Feb. 28, Reuters reported, citing Crystal Intelligence and other blockchain analytics firms. Crystal Intelligence told Reuters that Nobitex has processed more than $100 million in transactions during the war, around 20% of normal activity, while $54 million has been withdrawn from the exchange since the conflict began, with much of it moving abroad to brokers who convert crypto to cash.

Here's how China's response to Trump tariffs silently rocks bitcoinChina’s exports remain resilient under U.S. tariffs as the yuan stays tightly managed, sending ripples all the way to the crypto market. In response, China has adapted to Trump's tactics, with tight control over the yuan's exchange rate playing a key role in its resilience. According to a recent note by JPMorgan, this stance on exchange rate management has helped Beijing preserve export competitiveness and contain deflation, while amplifying dollar-led liquidity cycles during periods of trade stress. In other words, China's exchange rate management tends to supercharge dollar-driven cash flows during the escalation of trade tensions, like storms that make the flood worse. This affects bitcoin, which is a macro-sensitive asset. It tanks when the tariff-led risk-off makes the dollar liquidity scarce and rebounds when the tensions ease. That's exactly how bitcoin traded in March-April last year after trade tensions escalated. China’s influence on crypto prices runs indirectly through currency management and global liquidity cycles, data suggests, unlike the U.S., where it flows directly via capital movements in exchange-traded funds and other alternative investment vehicles. That interpretation aligns with arguments from Arthur Hayes, who has framed U.S.-China trade deals as largely performative and emphasized that the real economic adjustment occurs through quieter channels. In his view, tariffs and negotiations set the political backdrop, while FX policy, capital-account tools, and Treasury-led liquidity management determine market outcomes JPMorgan’s outlook reinforces that logic. China may not allow the yuan to strengthen meaningfully, but the interaction among tariffs, managed FX, and dollar liquidity still shapes the macro environment in which bitcoin trades. According to JPMorgan Private Bank’s latest Asia outlook, China’s export engine remains resilient, with real exports on track to grow about 8% in 2025 and global market share rising to roughly 15%, despite a dense web of U.S. tariffs, and U.S.-bound exports from China dropping to below 10% of the total. That resilience reflects diversification toward ASEAN and other regions, as well as a deliberate decision to tightly manage the yuan rather than allow it to appreciate. The Chinese yuan has strengthened about 4% over the past year off its 2023 lows, but on a calendar-year basis in 2025 it is only marginally stronger against the dollar, underscoring how tightly managed and range-bound the currency remains. Any recent yuan strength, the bank argues, is likely seasonal, with the medium-term outlook pointing to a stable, range-bound trajectory as policymakers prioritize export competitiveness and grapple with entrenched deflationary pressure. The bank cautioned that the bar for meaningful yuan appreciation remains high, describing the currency as operating under a low-volatility management framework in which movements are largely dictated by the dollar. For crypto markets, that framework shifts the focus away from sustained yuan appreciation and toward liquidity transmission. #ETFvsBTC #xmucan #bitcoin #hottrendingtopics #Dogecoin‬⁩

DeFi shaken by $292 million hack, but showing resilience, Standard Chartered saysThe AAVE-led response and new safeguards underscore the sector's maturity as the bank maintains its $2 trillion RWA outlook. Despite the shock, tokenized real-world assets are still expected to reach a $2 trillion market cap by end-2028, driven by continued growth in DeFi lending and stablecoin liquidity, the report said. We still project that tokenised real-world assets (RWAs) will reach a market cap of $2 trillion by end-2028, up from $35 billion in October 2025," wrote Geoff Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, in the Wednesday report. Hacks and exploits remain a core risk in crypto, undermining trust in systems built on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, where a single weak point can trigger outsized losses. These risks are amplified by the complexity and interconnected nature of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, while expanding functionality, also widen the attack surface and have accounted for billions in losses due to intricate designs, shared systems and, in some cases, weak validation. Beyond the immediate damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Major hacks can push users and institutions to the sidelines, invite tighter regulation and slow adoption, making security a key constraint on crypto’s growth. AAVE and a coalition of DeFi firms moved quickly, committing more than $300 million to stabilize the system. According to the report, the intervention helped normalize conditions, with yields easing and deposits recovering The bank added that the incident is accelerating structural upgrades. AAVE’s V4 upgrade and the forthcoming Ethereum Economic Zone aim to reduce reliance on cross-chain bridges, a frequent target in major crypto hacks, including this one. Wall Street bank JPMorgan (JPM) said hacks and stagnant capital levels in decentralized finance continue to weigh on DeFi’s institutional appeal, highlighted by a $20 billion hit from the KelpDAO exploit. #PolymarketDeniesDataBreach #YapayzekaAI #GamingCoins #pepepumping #xmucan

We still project that tokenised real-world assets (RWAs) will reach a market cap of $2 trillion by end-2028, up from $35 billion in October 2025," wrote Geoff Kendrick, head of digital assets research at Standard Chartered, in the Wednesday report.
Hacks and exploits remain a core risk in crypto, undermining trust in systems built on code rather than intermediaries. Smart contract bugs, phishing and cross-chain bridge flaws can expose large pools of locked assets, where a single weak point can trigger outsized losses.
These risks are amplified by the complexity and interconnected nature of blockchain infrastructure. Cross-chain bridges, while expanding functionality, also widen the attack surface and have accounted for billions in losses due to intricate designs, shared systems and, in some cases, weak validation.
Beyond the immediate damage, repeated exploits erode confidence across the ecosystem. Major hacks can push users and institutions to the sidelines, invite tighter regulation and slow adoption, making security a key constraint on crypto’s growth.
AAVE and a coalition of DeFi firms moved quickly, committing more than $300 million to stabilize the system. According to the report, the intervention helped normalize conditions, with yields easing and deposits recovering
The bank added that the incident is accelerating structural upgrades. AAVE’s V4 upgrade and the forthcoming Ethereum Economic Zone aim to reduce reliance on cross-chain bridges, a frequent target in major crypto hacks, including this one.
Wall Street bank JPMorgan (JPM) said hacks and stagnant capital levels in decentralized finance continue to weigh on DeFi’s institutional appeal, highlighted by a $20 billion hit from the KelpDAO exploit.

Galaxy Digital delivers first data center tranche to CoreWeave after narrowing Q1 lossGalaxy secured approval to double its Helios data center power capacity to over 1.6GW, building on its strategic expansion into AI infrastructure. The company is increasingly focusing on the growing demand for data centers, and this month delivered its first data hall at the Helios campus in Texas to CoreWeave (CRWV), marking the start of revenue under a long-term lease tied to artificial intelligence workloads. Adjusted gross profit remained broadly stable, reflecting a shift in the business mix as recurring fee revenue and transaction income continue to scale and provide greater resilience in softer market conditions," the company said in a statement. "Disciplined expense management during the quarter helped narrow the adjusted EBITDA loss, underscoring a focus on operating efficiency in more challenging environments." The Helios facility is set to deliver 133 megawatts of computing power by the end of the second quarter. The company also secured approval for an additional 830 megawatts of power at the site, bringing total capacity to more than 1.6 gigawatts. GLXY shares fell for a second day, and were recently 0.84% lower at $24.84. #PEPEATH #xmucan #ZeusInCrypto #StrategyBTCPurchase #YapayzekaAI

Foreign demand for US corporate bonds rises as investors favor tech over financials, Citigroup saysApril 28 (Reuters) - Foreign demand for U.S. investment-grade corporate bonds has remained strong for 15 consecutive months, according to Citigroup, as overseas investors rotate into ​technology, media and telecom (TMT) debt, as well as longer maturities, ‌while moving away from financial bonds. This shift stands in contrast to recent concerns about rising debt levels at companies like Oracle (ORCL.N), opens new tab, which faced investor scrutiny over its funding ​plans for massive AI infrastructure expansion. Foreign investors have rotated toward ​TMT and away from financials, and added more in the ⁠15y+ maturity bucket, in line with recent trends in the primary ​market," Citigroup said in a note dated April 27. Foreign investors increased their ​share of purchases of TMT corporates to 26.1% in 2026 from 17.1% in 2025, while reducing exposure to financial debt to 39% from 53.8%, the Wall Street brokerage ​said. The brokerage said U.S. corporates saw the largest inflows since February ​2025 from Canada, Japan, Norway, Taiwan, Kuwait and Hong Kong, with Hong Kong holdings ‌up ⁠19.4% after regulatory changes. Demand for bonds with maturities over 15 years rose to 44.1% of total purchases in 2026 from 23.7% in 2025, Citi noted. The brokerage highlighted positive rating actions for American Tower (AMT.N), opens new tab, Analog Devices (ADI.O), opens new tab, Keysight ​Technologies (KEYS.N), opens new tab and Cadence ​Design Systems (CDNS.O), opens new tab, citing ⁠improved credit profiles due to AI infrastructure buildout.

Nigeria caps jet fuel prices to avert airline disruptionsLAGOS, April 28 (Reuters) - Nigeria's government is capping jet fuel prices and allowing airlines to buy supplies on credit, according to a government document seen by Reuters, as it tries to avert flight ​disruptions caused by soaring fuel costs. The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) ​said in the document that aviation fuel should sell for 1,760 ⁠naira to 1,988 naira ($1.29 to $1.46) per litre in Lagos and 1,809 naira to ​2,037 naira in Abuja, based on benchmarks from April 17 to April 23. It warned ​that prices could still rise due to market volatility linked to the U.S.–Iran conflict and higher supplier costs.

President Bola Tinubu last week approved ‌30% relief ⁠on airlines' debts to aviation agencies and ordered fuel marketers, airlines and regulators to agree on a "fair" fuel price within 72 hours to prevent a sector-wide shutdown.
