Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is on a mission to sprinkle some interest magic on stablecoins! 🪄 In a recent post, he called for legislative changes to let stablecoin holders earn "onchain interest," suggesting it could boost the US economy and your wallet. With two competing bills, the STABLE Act and the GENIUS Act, in the mix, the race is on to see if stablecoins will soon outshine traditional savings accounts. Armstrong argues that unlocking onchain interest could mean more dollars flowing back to the US, fueling growth and keeping the dollar's digital dominance strong.
🚀 Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong is shaking up the crypto world, calling for US laws to let stablecoin holders earn "onchain interest." In a post on X, Armstrong argued that crypto firms should be treated like banks, sharing interest with consumers. He believes this could boost the US economy by attracting global use of dollar stablecoins.
Two bills, the STABLE Act and the GENIUS Act, are in the works but currently block interest payments. Armstrong warns that without change, the US could miss out on billions in potential cash flows. 💰

Arthur Hayes: Even if the US stock market falls, Bitcoin is expected to reach $250,000 by the end of the year
Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, reiterated his long-term bullish stance on Bitcoin in his latest blog. He said that the core of Bitcoin pricing lies in "technology + fiat currency liquidity". There are no major changes in the current technical level, and the market mainly trades around the expectation of future fiat currency supply. Hayes believes that if the Federal Reserve really shifts from quantitative tightening (QT) to quantitative easing (QE), then Bitcoin has bottomed out near $76,500. He said that although the US stock market may fall due to tariffs, downward revisions to corporate earnings expectations or weak overseas demand, Bitcoin is still expected to continue to rise and challenge $250,000 by the end of the year. He added that his fund Maelstrom is steadily increasing its positions in BTC and some altcoins, without using leverage, and the operation volume is relatively conservative. The pace of capital deployment will be adjusted according to market judgment. Compared with whether to reach $76,500 or $110,000 first, he prefers to bet on the latter.

🚀 $BTC /USDT – Early Bullish Breakout Brewing! 🔥💯
Current Price: $82,794 (+0.30%)
Bitcoin just formed a Change of Character (CHoCH) and is consolidating above a reclaimed demand zone. This setup hints at another bullish leg!
📊 Market Structure Insight:
• CHoCH confirms the shift from bearish to bullish control
• Price dipped into a key FVG and reacted bullishly
• Support zone around $82,450–$82,500 is holding well
• Minor FVG resistance above, but weak sellers so far
📍Trade Setup:
• Entry: $82,750–$82,800
• Stop Loss: $82,456
• Target 1: $83,200
• Target 2: $83,980
• R/R Ratio: ~3.2x
⚠️ Why This Setup Matters:
We're seeing price compress under a weak FVG resistance after reclaiming structure. This usually leads to a clean breakout when volume spikes.
💡 Pro Tip:
Monitor for bullish engulfing candles above $82,800 for confirmation. Volume + structure break = green light.
Don’t Fade the CHoCH – Bitcoin Could Rip Through FVGs Anytime!
Be positioned. Be sharp. Ride it to the highs!

The zkLend hacker lost almost all of the stolen money due to a phishing attack and then contacted zkLend to recover the stolen money
Vladimir S, an on-chain analyst, monitored that the zkLend hacker (the original case occurred in February) accidentally clicked on a phishing website when trying to use TornadoCash, and 2,930 ETH of stolen money was stolen by the phishing website. After the incident, the zkLend hacker even contacted zkLend through an on-chain transaction, expressing his apologies and asking zkLend to help him recover the stolen money. zkLend then responded to the hacker and asked him to return the remaining stolen money. The hacker agreed and returned the remaining 25.15 ETH.
$XRP at a Critical Juncture – What’s Next?
$XRP is flashing signs of weakness, currently at $2.0947 (-1.64%). It’s struggling to break past $2.10, and if we see a rejection here, the next test will be $2.02 support. A clean break below could accelerate downside momentum.
For serious investors, this is a high-risk, high-reward moment. Will XRP hold and reclaim $2.10, or are we about to witness a deeper correction? The market structure is fragile, and liquidity is thinning.
I’m watching for one of two scenarios:
1️⃣ A breakout above $2.10 → signaling strength & a possible push toward $2.20+
2️⃣ A breakdown below $2.02 → opening the door for a sharper decline
A lot of factors in play, including macro pressures and #FTXrepayment narratives shifting liquidity flows. Eyes on the order books.
What’s your call? Bullish bounce or breakdown?
