Several important developments in the cryptocurrency market today are worth noting. Stablecoin payment solution provider PHOTONPAY recently completed a multi-million dollar Series B funding round led by IDG CAPITAL, further promoting the application of stablecoins in the payments sector.

In terms of Ethereum staking, BITMINE continues to increase its stake, adding 109,504 ETH, with a total staked amount exceeding $340 million, reflecting institutional confidence in ETH's long-term prospects. Meanwhile, leading stablecoin TETHER has made further progress in compliance, successfully registering a trademark for its asset tokenization platform HADRON in Russia, clearing legal hurdles for future business expansion.

Additionally, federal prosecutors are conducting a criminal investigation into the Federal Reserve Chair, which could have ripple effects on the global financial markets.

Stablecoins are about to rise again, but it depends on how TETHER will mess around.

Stablecoins are raising funds again and again. This time, PHOTONPAY raised tens of millions. Why does it feel like the payment sector is so competitive... ETH staking has surpassed $340 million. Institutions really aren’t afraid of risks, haha. TETHER registered a trademark in Russia? This move is quite interesting; gotta think about the subsequent compliance story.

Staking institutions are really bottom-fishing, with $340 million worth of ETH staked. What are they betting on?

The staking numbers are getting more and more outrageous, $340 million? That's pretty impressive.

Institutions are really holding back big moves, BITMINE is pouring so much ETH in... It seems that big players have long seen through this.

Stablecoins are about to take off again, but I am more optimistic about ETH staking... institutions are really placing their bets.

Stablecoins are starting to expand again. This time, PHOTONPAY took funding from IDG. The payment sector is really getting competitive. Institutions are frantically stacking ETH, with a staking scale of 340 million dollars... It makes my small retail holdings seem so insignificant. TETHER registering a trademark in Russia? Compliance stuff never ends... The Federal Reserve Chair being investigated? The global financial circle is about to shake... --- Stablecoin payments are coming to fruition, sounds good, but will it really change anything? Still the same old story. --- 340 million dollars in staking, that's scary. Institutions are betting on ETH to go up. --- PHOTONPAY has raised tens of millions again... Feels like the stablecoin sector is already saturated, yet money is still pouring in wildly. --- TETHER's compliance efforts are quite thorough. Let's see if it can truly be implemented later. --- The federal prosecutor investigating the Fed Chair—this plot is a bit interesting... The crypto market is probably going to be volatile.
