Stablecoins have moved from a crypto-policy-side market to Kevin Warsh’s Federal Reserve’s dollar-policy agenda.Fed Governor Christopher Waller used the central bank’s June 22 dollar conference to frame digital assets, including stablecoins, as part of the research agenda around the dollar’s international role.The remarks were a research signal rather than a new stablecoin policy.

Bitcoin’s prolonged decline is forcing cryptocurrency companies to cut staff, automate more work, and abandon the expansion plans that defined the last bull market. At the same time, it is also creating one of the industry’s busiest periods for takeovers.Crypto mergers and acquisitions reached $7.23 billion during the second quarter of 2026, up from $2.14 billion in the first three months of the year.The two quarters brought total capital deployed through deals to $9.37 billion.

Chainlink’s Project Pangea turns stablecoins toward a quieter but consequential job: helping banks settle foreign-exchange trades with less time between trade execution and final exchange of funds.The June 23 announcement from Chainlink describes a framework for T+0 international FX settlement designed around compliant fiat-referenced digital assets, including EUR and KRW stablecoins.T+0, or same-day settlement, means a transaction is completed, and ownership and payment are exchanged on the same day the trade is executed, rather than waiting one or more business days for final settlement.That makes the project a test of settlement risk. If a euro stablecoin and a Korean won…

Bitcoin’s rebound above $60,000 just failed because the bundle of U.S. macro data released June 25 gave risk traders the opposite of clean relief: sticky inflation, firm demand, a stronger growth revision, fewer jobless claims, and resilient ex-transport orders.Bitcoin briefly flash-crashed in a liquidation-driven flush, falling from an intraday high near $61,844 to a low of about $58,189 before recovering part of the move, trading around $59,630. The rebound leaves BTC off the intraday lows as of press time, but the price remains below the pre-drop range.The move coincided with a heavily one-sided liquidation event. CoinGlass liquidation readouts showed about $482 million…
