57073f685ad44d0e9154646a9502fcd2

This week’s liquidations spiked this week, with an exceptionally large liquidation event on Monday, taking out more than $1.65B in longs, while Wednesday’s flush wiped out another $1B in long positions. Funding rates continued to fall, with some majors seeing slightly negative funding following the market decline..

📌 Crypto custody firm, BitGo, files for an IPO, the latest in a string of hot crypto-related IPOs. – Link

Why does it matter?

Despite the earlier week’s announcement of a 25 bps rate cut and expectations for more rate cuts later in the year, both the crypto and traditional markets took a hit this week, with crypto taking the lead and equities following shortly after. The S&P 500 is down 0.64% on the week, with the Nasdaq down 0.58%.

Notable altcoin outperformers this week included ASTER (ASTER), Avantis (AVNT) Fluid (FLUID), Synthetix Network (SNX) and LayerZero (ZRO).

Narrative of the Week

All eyes are on Tether-backed stablecoin L1 chain, Plasma, as the chain officially goes live, alongside their token, XPL.

📌 Tether is in the process of evaluating a raise from selected high-profile investors, in a bid to continue expanding and maximize the scale of the company.

Tether is evaluating a raise from a selected group of high-profile key investors, to maximize the scale of the Company's strategy across all existing and new business lines (stablecoins, distribution ubiquity, AI, commodity trading, energy, communications, media) by several…

📌 Tether-backed stablecoin L1, Plasma, introduces Plasma One, their stablecoin native neobank and debit card ecosystem, enabling idle stablecoins to earn yield, stablecoin cashbacks and zero fee transfers. – Link

📌 The Plasma token, XPL, goes live, just one month after their presale, opening at more than 15x the presale valuation of $500M.

Why does it matter?

The stablecoin narrative remains hot, and with Tether at the top of the stablecoin sector, XPL presents an interesting investment opportunity as the only public way to gain exposure to Tether.

Major Project Updates

📌 Cloudlfare introduces the NET Dollar, a US dollar-backed stablecoin to support instant and secure transactions for the agentic web. – Link

📌 Messaging application, LINE, and Kaia, collaborate to launch a stablecoin superapp for cross-border payments. – Link

📌 PayPal makes a strategic investment into stablecoin L1, Stable, integrating their stablecoin, PYUSD, with the Stable chain. – Link

📌 Centralized exchange, Gate, announces their own L2 chain, Gate Layer, boasting high TPS and low fees, with the GT token powering the ecosystem. – Link

Why does it matter?

Stablecoins remain the central narrative and use case for crypto, with traditional Web 2 companies like Cloudflare and LINE to differentiate themselves from competitors and earn a piece of the stablecoin pie.

DeFi Brief

Source: https://coinmarketcap.com/chain-ranking/

📌 Circle is allegedly exploring reversible transactions, marking a questionable departure from the immutability of traditional blockchain transactions. – Link

📌 Interoperability protocol, LayerZero, executes a buyback of $50M in ZRO tokens from early investors, representing a repurchase of 5% of the token supply. – Link

📌 A community proposal by Jon Charbonneau and Hasu has been put forward to reduce the max token supply of the HYPE token by 45%, through reducing future emissions, burning HYPE held by the Assistance Fund, and more. – Link

Why does it matter?

Circle’s recent exploration into reversible transactions brings into question the erosion of the original ethos of crypto as projects become increasingly dominated by traditional finance players.

Meme Coins

📌 A memecoin allegedly launched by the creators of Baby Shark, Pink Fong, and endorsed by Story Protocol founder, S.Y. Lee, shot to a market cap of $500M before a 95% dump after Pink Fong refutes claims that the token is official. – Link
