🔹 Tether (USDT) Expands to Bitcoin
Tether just announced the launch of USDT on the Bitcoin blockchain via the RGB protocol. This marks a huge step for cross-chain adoption, bringing stablecoin liquidity directly into the Bitcoin ecosystem.
🔹 Ethereum Attracts Institutions
Ethereum is gaining serious traction among big players. Open interest in CME ETH futures has hit a record $10B, showing growing institutional confidence in the network.
🔹 Validator Exodus Shakes ETH
On the flip side, Ethereum is facing a record $4.6B validator exit queue, with withdrawal times now stretching beyond 17 days. Profit-taking pressure is mounting as stakers cash out.
📊 What This Means for the Market
Bitcoin gets new stablecoin utility → could drive liquidity flows.
Ethereum gains institutional trust → long-term bullish signal.
Validator exits = short-term risks → may add volatility.
🔥 The market is at a turning point: Tether is bridging ecosystems, while Ethereum is balancing institutional growth against staking pressure.
