The Node sat down with @ethena founder Guy Young (@gdog97_) to discuss USDe, yield-bearing stablecoins, regulation and why crypto needs to meet users where they already are.
Full interview in the first comment.
Softer US inflation data has helped sentiment turn for @Bitcoin, reshaping rate expectations and bringing inflows back after eight weeks of global digital asset ETP outflows across all issuers.
But @jbutterfill, Head of Research at CoinShares, sees a cautious setup: the floor may be in, but upside still looks capped without a stronger shift in monetary policy expectations.
Open USD is not live yet, but its model already matters.
In his latest research, Luke Nolan (@eazygambit), Senior Research Associate at CoinShares, looks at how @openstandard’s OUSD could challenge stablecoin economics by sharing reserve income with distribution partners.

Professional @Bitcoin ownership faced its first real ETF-era bear market test.
As our latest report by Matthew Kimmel (@bc1matt) shows, 13F holdings fell 17% in Q1, but the selling was highly concentrated.
Hedge funds and brokerages drove most of the reduction, while advisors held relatively steady and banks continued to add.
