Reuters reported on Russia's intention to create its own stablecoins.
Russia should develop its own stablecoins tied to different currencies. This was stated by Osman Kabaloev, Deputy Director of the Department of Financial Policy, according to Reuters.

DeFi and stablecoins have already proven the strength of Ethereum. But to continue growing, a new powerful driver is needed.
There is increasing talk that the next narrative will be the combination of Ethereum + AI.
Why does this make sense? AI is currently developing like the Wild West — black boxes, centralized models, zero privacy. And this is where Ethereum has an advantage:
– Transparency: smart contracts allow for the verification of AI code and data. – Decentralization: no single corporation controls everything. – Payment infrastructure: micropayments, rewards, access to data.
If users, businesses, and regulators start demanding verifiable AI — decentralized platforms (first and foremost Ethereum) will be ready to meet this need.
This is a real chance for ETH. To bring the hype back to the chain — Ethereum needs new fresh hype narratives. It seems that going through the old ones is no longer an option. The market is such that it grows where there is something new and about the "future." AI decentralization is just the chance for our "favorite."#BinanceAlphaAlert
