On Jan. 7, Donald Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) formally applied for a national banking charter to establish the “World Liberty Trust Company.”This is a proposed national trust bank specifically designed to handle USD1 stablecoin issuance, custody, redemption, and reserve management. USD1 is WLFI’s flagship product, with more than $3.3 billion in supply across 10 blockchain networks.On the surface, the move appears to be a standard compliance upgrade—a predictable attempt by a high-profile crypto issuer to appear more “institutional” to skeptical observers.However, a closer examination of the application reveals a more complex, forward-looking wager on the trajectory of the digital…

Dow Jones announced an exclusive partnership to distribute Polymarket prediction data across The Wall Street Journal, Barron’s, and MarketWatch on the same day Kalshi claimed it had hit $100 billion in annualized trading volume.The juxtaposition captures where prediction markets sit at the start of 2026: simultaneously legitimized as a financial data product and mired in methodological disputes, oracle controversies, and insider trading optics that would sink most consumer finance products before they reach distribution.The difference is that institutions are not validating the integrity of prediction markets, but their utility as an information layer. ICE, the owner of the New York…
Products listed as XAUUSDT and XAGUSDT are designed to track gold and silver prices onchain. The contracts operate under FSRA regulation in Abu Dhabi through the ADGM framework. Other major exchanges already offer precious metals-linked perpetual contracts, reflecting rising demand. Binance has widened its derivatives suite by adding perpetual futures linked to gold and silver, marking a push beyond purely digital assets. The move reflects growing demand among crypto-native traders for exposure to traditional safe-haven markets through familiar onchain infrastructure. By listing precious metals products that trade around the clock and have no expiry date, the exchange is positioning itself…
XRP’s rally paused as spot ETF inflows slowed and early profit-taking emerged. Technical resistance triggered selling, but long-term holders stayed largely inactive. Price outlook hinges on holding key support while ETF demand stabilises. XRP entered 2026 with powerful momentum after ending last year on a strong institutional narrative. The token quickly outperformed Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) in early January, drawing renewed attention from traders, funds, and mainstream media. Spot XRP ETFs were a major driver of this enthusiasm, as consistent inflows signalled sustained institutional demand. Low exchange balances reinforced the bullish case by suggesting limited immediate sell-side supply. This…
Wyoming launched a state-backed stablecoin on Solana, and Morgan Stanley filed for a Solana trust product this week. Last month, Visa expanded USDC settlement to run on Solana rails, and JPMorgan tokenized commercial paper using Solana for part of the settlement stack.These are not rumors or roadmap promises. They happened over 60 days, and they force a cleaner question than the old binary: institutions are no longer asking whether to engage with Solana, but how much exposure and on which layer.The “institutions won’t embrace Solana” claim survived as long as it did because it conflated two different bets: buying SOL…
Wyoming has launched FRNT, the first stablecoin issued and backed by a US state government. The dollar-pegged token is fully backed by cash and Treasuries and managed by Franklin Templeton. Interest from reserves is directed to Wyoming public schools rather than token holders. Wyoming has formally entered the digital asset market by issuing the first stablecoin created and backed by a US state government. The launch places a publicly managed dollar-pegged token directly onto open crypto networks, marking a shift from privately issued stablecoins that currently dominate the market. Known as the Frontier Stable Token (FRNT), the project reflects years…
Beijing’s reported request for Chinese tech firms to halt orders of Nvidia’s H200 chips arrives at a moment when Bitcoin has become uncomfortably tethered to AI equity sentiment.As The Information and Reuters reported on Jan. 7, the move affects “some” Chinese companies and may presage a mandate requiring domestic purchases of AI chips.For Bitcoin holders, the question is not about chip geopolitics directly, but whether a regulatory disruption in AI supply chains can trigger the same risk-off cascade that has repeatedly pulled Bitcoin down when tech equities wobble.

The proposed trust bank would operate solely within stablecoin services under OCC supervision. USD1 has reached over $3.3 billion in circulation within a year of launch. The stablecoin is fully backed by US dollars and short-term US Treasury assets.
