🚀 Cryptocurrency Cards Emerge as Key Channel for Stablecoin Usage

According to ChainCatcher, a report by Artemis highlights that cryptocurrency cards have become a significant channel for stablecoin usage, with an annual transaction volume reaching $18 billion. This figure is approaching the $19 billion scale of peer-to-peer stablecoin on-chain transfers.

Currently, Visa dominates this market, accounting for over 90% of the transaction volume. Despite the rapid growth, Artemis suggests that direct cryptocurrency payments are unlikely to completely replace traditional card networks in the short term.

🚀 Ethereum's Fusaka Upgrade Sparks Temporary Activity Surge, Says JPMorgan

Ethereum's recent Fusaka upgrade has resulted in a temporary increase in transaction volume and active addresses, according to NS3.AI. However, JPMorgan anticipates that this surge will be short-lived as users increasingly migrate to Layer 2 solutions and alternative platforms such as Solana. The bank notes a decline in interest in NFTs and memecoins, which could lead to a reduction in Ethereum's network fee burns and a gradual increase in ETH supply.

🚀 Tokenization Firms Urge EU to Revise DLT Pilot Restrictions

Several tokenization and market infrastructure operators, including Securitize, have collectively addressed EU policymakers, warning that current restrictions in the EU's distributed ledger technology (DLT) pilot regime may drive liquidity and market activity towards the United States. According to PANews, signatories of the letter include entities such as 21X, central securities depositories, and the Stuttgart Exchange Group.

The letter highlights that while the EU's 'Market Integration and Regulation Scheme' establishes a sound long-term framework, its implementation timeline delays crucial reforms until at least 2030. Meanwhile, the DLT pilot regime's narrow scope of eligible assets, low transaction volume caps (currently set at 60-90 billion euros), and a six-year license duration are hindering the scaling of launched products, as the U.S. rapidly advances in on-chain market infrastructure.

These companies are urging the EU to enact 'swift amendments' to the pilot regime within six months, either through independent technical revisions or minor legislative proposals. Suggested changes include broadening the range of eligible assets, increasing transaction volume caps to 100-150 billion euros, and removing the six-year validity limit on DLT market infrastructure licenses.

🚀 USDC Market Cap Nears Record High Amid Middle East Demand Surge

The market capitalization of the USDC stablecoin is nearing a record high of approximately $80 billion, driven by increasing demand in the Middle East. According to Cointelegraph, this surge is linked to capital flight from the United Arab Emirates, as investors seek alternatives to traditional markets. Data from CoinMarketCap indicates that USDC's circulating supply has reached around $79.2 billion, surpassing its previous peak of under $79 billion in December last year. The stablecoin's market cap has expanded significantly in recent weeks, rising from just over $70 billion in early February to $75 billion earlier this month.

Dubai-based analyst Rami Al-Hashimi attributes the surge in USDC demand to a downturn in the UAE's real estate market. He noted that property prices in Dubai have plummeted by approximately 27% this month, prompting investors to shift capital into digital assets. Al-Hashimi highlighted that over-the-counter (OTC) desks in Dubai are struggling to meet the growing demand for USDC. He also mentioned that some property sellers are now accepting cryptocurrency payments directly, offering discounts for buyers who pay with Bitcoin. This trend underscores the increasing appeal of digital assets during times of financial uncertainty.

In a related development, Japanese investment bank Mizuho reports that USDC has overtaken Tether's USDt in adjusted transaction volume for the first time since 2019. The bank's research indicates that USDC recorded about $2.2 trillion in adjusted transaction volume year-to-date, compared to $1.3 trillion for USDt, giving USDC approximately 64% of the combined transaction share. Despite this shift in transaction activity, USDt remains the largest stablecoin by market capitalization, standing at about $184 billion, significantly ahead of USDC's $79 billion.
