XRP atteint un plus haut sur sept mois alors que les gains hebdomadaires s’accumulent
XRP est monté jusqu’à 1,60 $ le 22 septembre, son plus haut niveau depuis février, avant de revenir vers 1,57 $. Le mouvement porte le token en hausse de 22,7 % sur la semaine écoulée, selon les données de CoinMarketCap. Le volume des transactions a augmenté de 16,3 % pour atteindre 7,36 milliards de dollars sur 24 heures, et la capitalisation boursière s’est établie à 99,05 milliards de dollars, juste en dessous du seuil des 100 milliards.
La dernière impulsion haussière s’inscrit dans une reprise plus large, qui s’est accélérée au cours d’août et de septembre. Crypto.news indique que le $XRP a passé la majeure partie de l’été à évoluer entre 0,90 $ et 1,10 $. Et que la flambée d’août, qui a propulsé le token de 1,00 $ à plus de 1,55 $ en moins de deux semaines, correspond au premier mouvement de prix durable corrélé à l’amélioration des indicateurs on-chain, plutôt qu’à de la simple spéculation. La dynamique institutionnelle de Ripple, notamment son intégration avec les outils de paiement par IA de Stripe et la croissance continue de son stablecoin RLUSD, a fourni un contexte fondamental à cette progression.

How the Oracle Vote Works
Services like Chainlink aggregate price data from many sources through a decentralized set of independent node operators, and most blockchains rely on them for exactly that. Terra Classic takes a different approach: it puts that responsibility directly on its validators.
The Terra network relies on validators to periodically vote on the current Luna exchange rate, with the protocol updating the on-chain rate as the weighted median of the ballot. This means larger validators, those with more stake behind them, carry more weight in determining the final price.
During each voting period, the oracle module requires all members of the validator set to submit a vote for the Luna exchange rate. Validators must first pre-commit to an exchange rate, then in the subsequent period submit and reveal their rate alongside proof of that pre-commitment. This scheme forces the voter to commit to a submission before knowing the votes of others, reducing centralization and free-rider risk.
Because this process occurs every 30 seconds, validators must set up an automated process to avoid getting slashed and jailed.
Penalties for Missing Votes
The system is backed by strict enforcement. When a validator misses votes or fails to vote correctly in the oracle process, other validators can submit evidence of the misbehavior. Once confirmed, the offending validator will have a portion of their funds slashed and may be jailed or excluded from consensus for a period of time.
Validators who land close to the weighted median share in the oracle reward pool. Those that participate faithfully and vote within the reward band around the weighted median earn a portion of seigniorage as an incentive to stay active and accurate.
The participation data reflects how seriously the validator set takes this obligation. According to validator.info data, 86 of 87 active validators voted in the latest round, a near-perfect participation rate that underscores the financial incentive to stay compliant.

What Kaspa v2.1.0 Delivers
The Kaspa development team has shipped v2.1.0, a combined feature, security, and maintenance release that all node, mining, and infrastructure operators are urged to install without delay.
The headline change is the move to P2P Protocol Version 11, which introduces chunked Initial Block Download (IBD). Large sync payloads, including Pruning Point Proofs, headers, and trusted data, are now streamed in 20 MiB chunks, eliminating the message-framing bottlenecks and timeouts that could affect node synchronisation. Protocol 11 maintains full backwards compatibility with Protocol 10 peers.
Alongside the sync improvement, the release lowers the maximum allowed P2P message size from 1 GB to 256 MB and enforces wire-level transaction and block limits, including a 2 MB maximum block size, to blunt spam and denial-of-service attacks. The update also patches a security vulnerability in the Stratum bridge, the tool that allows mining pools to connect their infrastructure directly to Kaspa nodes.
Broader Security Hardening
Beyond the networking changes, v2.1.0 includes a workspace-wide arithmetic safety audit and post-Toccata consensus streamlining, as well as extraction of a standalone ZK SDK crate (kaspa-txscript-zk-sdk).
The arithmetic audit enforces clippy::arithmetic_side_effects across production crates under a formal policy documented in docs/ARITH-SAFETY.md, hardening counters, retry loops, and arithmetic operations across the node.
The release builds on the momentum of the Toccata hard fork, which activated on June 30, 2026, introducing native Layer-1 covenant systems and zero-knowledge verification. v2.1.0 consolidates the infrastructure around that upgrade and raises the security baseline ahead of further protocol development.
Operators who do not upgrade risk connectivity issues and exposure to the spam vectors the new message-size cap is designed to close. The kaspa:native release is available now on the official Kaspa GitHub repository.

Les détenteurs qui misent des tokens $INJ sur @injective ont approuvé la mise à niveau du réseau principal Meridian à une écrasante majorité, ouvrant la voie à ce que les développeurs du réseau décrivent comme sa plus importante impulsion institutionnelle à ce jour. La proposition de gouvernance, désignée IIP-701, a été adoptée le 22 septembre avec environ 99% de soutien et est prévue pour être mise en ligne le 24 septembre 2026.
La conformité intégrée au protocole
Le cœur de Meridian est une nouvelle norme de jetons régulés sur la couche EVM d’Injective. La mise à niveau ajoute la prise en charge des implémentations de jetons régulés à l’EVM d’Injective, permettant aux émetteurs d’intégrer directement des exigences de conformité et de transfert dans des produits tokenisés. L’approche d’Injective avec Meridian consiste à faire de la conformité une fonctionnalité de niveau protocole plutôt qu’un ajout au niveau de l’application. Lorsque les exigences réglementaires résident au niveau de la norme de jeton, chaque application construite au-dessus en bénéficie automatiquement.

Amazon trace une ligne pour les acheteurs IA de tierces parties
La Muse de Meta, présentée plus tôt ce mois-ci, est conçue pour aider les personnes à accomplir des tâches en ligne courantes comme faire des achats et réserver des rendez-vous. L’agent s’est rapidement heurté à un mur. Amazon interdit à d’autres entreprises de déployer des outils automatisés pour acheter sur son site et a commencé à bloquer Muse dès dimanche soir. Amazon a coupé l’accès à Muse après avoir, sans succès, demandé à @Meta d’exclure volontairement sa boutique de l’expérience, la société indiquant qu’elle n’avait jamais accepté quoi que ce soit dans ce cadre.

Five Days of Events Across Seoul
@pudgypenguins is bringing its Pengu World Tour to Seoul, timed to coincide with @kbwofficial. The run of events stretches from September 28 to October 2, wrapping around the main Korea Blockchain Week conference, which takes place September 29 to October 1 at Walkerhill Hotels and Resorts in Seoul.
The lineup blends leisure and community: an arcade day, two pickleball meetups, a visit to Lotte World Adventure, and a late-night card party. Each event is designed to draw the Pudgy Penguins community together in person, rather than serving as a traditional conference activation.
Passport Stamps and On-the-Ground Partners
Every event during the tour issues its own exclusive Passport stamp tied to the Solana token solana:2zMMhcVQEXDtdE6vsFS7S7D5oUodfJHE8vd1gnBouauv. The stamps are only available to attendees who show up in person, making participation the sole path to collecting the full set.
Partners supporting the Seoul leg of the tour include KAST, Bitkub, MemeCore, Tangem, and Sway.
The Seoul stop comes as Pudgy Penguins continues to expand its real-world footprint. $PENGU, the project's ecosystem token, launched in December 2024 on the Solana blockchain and plays a central role in powering the Pudgy universe, including gaming, rewards, and future community participation. The brand has increasingly leaned into offline experiences as a way to deepen engagement beyond digital ownership.
Korea Blockchain Week itself is one of Asia's flagship crypto gatherings. KBW 2026 returns to Seoul from September 29 to October 1, with Upbit, Korea's leading digital asset exchange, joining as main sponsor. Established in 2018, KBW is Asia's foremost annual global blockchain and crypto conference, hosted in Seoul, South Korea.

Une approche différente des mises à niveau des applications
La plupart des logiciels conservent leurs données dans une base de données distincte, ce qui signifie que chaque mise à jour du code comporte le risque de perdre ou d’endommager ces données. Le Internet Computer de @dfinity emprunte une voie différente pour les applications construites en Motoko, son langage de programmation conçu à cet effet.
Plutôt que d’acheminer des données vers un stockage séparé et d’en revenir à chaque mise à jour, Motoko a toujours su préserver automatiquement l’état du programme lors des mises à niveau, sans aucun code supplémentaire pour gérer la persistance. L’innovation clé est simple : l’exécution évite tout transfert de l’état vers la mémoire stable en se contentant de conserver la mémoire principale, sans la supprimer. Le système d’exécution garantit désormais la cohérence des données lors des mises à niveau d’une manière très efficace, indépendamment de la taille de la mémoire.

@RobinhoodCrypto's Layer 2 network has crossed $1 billion in total value locked (TVL) in DeFi, cementing its place among the most significant new blockchain networks of this cycle, according to data from DefiLlama.
Morpho Dominates the TVL Stack
Of the $1 billion-plus locked on the network, @Morpho accounts for $555M, making it the single largest contributor to Robinhood Chain's DeFi liquidity. That dominance is not new. Lending protocols like Morpho tend to attract the most capital because they generate yield on deposited assets, making them natural anchors for new chains looking to bootstrap liquidity quickly. The pattern was visible from the start: approximately $90 million of Robinhood Chain's TVL sat inside Morpho within its first week of mainnet operation. The protocol's share has only grown since.
Stablecoins on the network have topped $1.07B, with two-thirds of that supply sitting in robinhood:0x5fc5360d0400a0fd4f2af552add042d716f1d168. The scale of stablecoin adoption underscores that the chain is attracting meaningful capital, not just speculative trading flows.
Trading Volumes Show a Mixed Picture
On the activity side, the data is more nuanced. Perpetuals volume climbed 22.6% over the week to $3.87B, a sign of growing demand for leveraged exposure on the network. DEX volume, however, fell 20% week-on-week to $10.36B.
Robinhood Chain is an Arbitrum Orbit-based Ethereum Layer 2 that launched its public mainnet on July 1, 2026. The $1 billion TVL milestone arrives less than two months after the chain opened its public mainnet. That pace of capital accumulation is exceptional by historical standards. Robinhood Chain has delivered the fastest early growth of any Layer 2 during this cycle, with daily DEX volume exceeding $1.5 billion and DeFi deposits approaching $740 million at prior points.
The top protocols by usage are Morpho for lending, Uniswap for decentralized exchange, Ethena, and Lighter. The concentration in Morpho is worth watching: if its incentives shift or yields compress, the TVL impact could be disproportionate.

Ondo Climbs to the Top of Two RWA Categories
@Ondo has secured the number one position in both tokenized Treasuries and tokenized stocks and ETFs by total value, marking a significant milestone for the platform in the fast-growing real-world asset sector. Measured across all RWA categories, Ondo sits second among tokenization platforms overall, with $3.66B in assets against Securitize's $4.74B, according to rwa.xyz data.
The platform's position in tokenized equities reflects rapid product expansion. Ondo Global Markets launched in early 2026 with over 100 tokenized US stocks and ETFs, covering names such as Apple, NVIDIA, Tesla, and index funds including QQQ and SPY, with plans to scale the offering further. Tokens carry the platform's distinct "-on" suffix, such as NVDAon and TSLAon, and are priced in USD.
On the Treasury side, Ondo's product suite includes OUSG, an institutional tokenized Treasury fund backed primarily by BlackRock's BUIDL money market fund, and USDY, a permissionless yield-bearing token backed by short-term US Treasuries. Ondo Global Markets crossed $1B in May 2026 and holds more than 70% market share of tokenized-stock volume, according to rwa.xyz figures cited by Chainstack.
Holder Growth Climbs, Transfer Volume Softens
On-chain user metrics show strong adoption momentum. Holders grew more than 20% over the past 30 days to nearly 487,000. Monthly transfer volume, however, dipped around 10% to $1.63B, suggesting some cooling in short-term trading activity even as the holder base continues to expand.
Ondo's broader regulatory position has also strengthened in 2026. The SEC formally closed its two-year investigation into Ondo in December 2025 with zero charges, and in July 2026 its SEC-registered broker-dealer Oasis Pro Markets secured FINRA authorization to offer tokenized equities and funds to US investors. That clearance opens a compliant path into one of the world's largest retail investment markets.
Securitize remains the largest tokenization platform overall. RWA.xyz tracked approximately $39.2B of distributed tokenized real-world assets as of September 8, 2026, with Securitize leading at around $5.04B. Ondo's ability to close that gap while simultaneously topping two distinct product categories positions it as the platform to watch as institutional and retail demand for on-chain real-world assets continues to grow.

Bitwise NEAR Staking ETP hits $100M milestone
The Bitwise NEAR Staking ETP has surpassed $100 million in assets under management, @Bitwise_Europe confirmed on September 22. The milestone arrives in under three months since the product's debut. Bitwise launched the NEAR Staking ETP (ticker: NEAR; ISIN DE000A4A5GV2) on Deutsche Börse Xetra in July 2025. The ETP is fully backed and issued in Germany, designed to deliver efficient staking returns and a low total cost of ownership.
The product stakes the $NEAR tokens it holds, targeting an estimated annual yield of around 5.5% net of fees and total expense ratio, while maintaining daily liquidity on the regulated market. The ETP is structured to accumulate daily staking yields, meaning returns compound over time rather than being distributed periodically. The product is designed for both institutional and retail investors who are familiar with digital assets and are seeking to diversify their portfolios.
NEAR Protocol itself has shown strong network growth. In Q2 2025, NEAR ranked second among the most-used blockchain platforms by monthly active users, just after Solana. This growth is driven in part by NEAR's chain abstraction technology, which makes it easier for people to use apps across different blockchains without needing multiple wallets or tokens.
US spot ETF still moving through SEC review
The European AUM milestone lands as @Bitwise is simultaneously pursuing a separate, spot $NEAR ETF in the United States. According to a Form S-1 filing, the proposed Bitwise NEAR ETF is designed to give investors direct exposure to the price of the NEAR token by holding actual NEAR tokens in custody. Bitwise named Coinbase Custody as the proposed custodian.
Bitwise filed Amendment No. 6 to the Trust's Registration Statement on Form S-1 with the SEC on September 16, 2026, keeping the application active and signalling that the firm remains committed to bringing a regulated $NEAR vehicle to US investors. The dual-track approach, with a staking ETP already generating returns in Europe and a spot ETF working through Washington's approval process, reflects a broader industry push to bring altcoin investment products to mainstream audiences on both sides of the Atlantic.

Inside the EvilTokens Takedown
@Microsoft's Digital Crimes Unit and @coinbase have jointly dismantled EvilTokens, one of the most sophisticated AI-powered phishing platforms seen to date. Emerging in February 2026, EvilTokens quickly became one of the most widely used phishing-as-a-service platforms, compromising more than 12,000 inboxes across over 10,000 organizations worldwide. The operation was Microsoft Digital Crimes Unit's 40th court-authorized disruption and its first against what it calls an "end-to-end AI-enabled cybercrime service."
At the center of the service was an AI-style chatbot that cybercriminals used to analyze victims' inboxes, identify trusted relationships, payment authorizations, and other sensitive details to facilitate fraud. The service sold access for a $1,500 initiation fee plus a $500 recurring subscription, advertised through a Telegram storefront. Victims were targeted with deceptive emails using 44 different themes, ranging from invoices to file-sharing requests, typically containing malicious URLs, PDFs, or other file types.
Coinbase's Crypto Trail Leads to Arrests
Coinbase's global intelligence team tracked that between October 2025 and June 2026, EvilTokens generated approximately $1.1 million in revenue through four Tron addresses, involving over 1,000 deposits from more than 700 different addresses. That blockchain trail proved critical. The related evidence supported Microsoft's civil lawsuit, ultimately leading to the seizure of 50 websites and the deactivation of over 175 associated domain names.
The action was carried out with authorization from the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia and involved the efforts of Health-ISAC, alongside Cloudflare, Coinbase, OpenAI, Railway, SpyCloud, The Shadowserver Foundation, and TRM Labs. According to Coinbase, at the time of the takedown, the EvilTokens operators were already working on newer phishing tools to target Okta and Gmail accounts.
London's Metropolitan Police Service arrested two men, aged 32 and 38, on September 11, 2026, in connection with the operation. The two men were arrested on suspicion of making articles for use in fraud and money laundering offenses, and have been released on bail as the investigation continues. Coinbase confirmed no platform credentials were compromised, though some customers were manipulated via email into transferring cryptocurrency to scammer-controlled addresses.

Plume Steps Into the Vault Debate
@plumenetwork has submitted its regulatory views to the @SECGov Crypto Task Force, ahead of a meeting held on September 22, 2026. The filing responds directly to Commissioner Hester Peirce's (@HesterPeirce) July 22 statement, in which she cautioned that crypto vaults and onchain lending strategies can still trigger federal securities laws depending on the specific facts and circumstances, even though much of the SEC's recent work has clarified that many crypto assets and activities fall outside those laws.
Peirce's statement, titled "Headstands and Summervaults," described vaults as tools that use smart contracts to allocate users' crypto assets to yield-generating activities such as staking and lending, noting that vaults fall along a spectrum ranging from "allocations determined solely by immutable smart contracts" to "allocations made at the sole discretion of another person or group of persons." She invited industry participants to engage with the SEC and offer feedback on how existing rules could better fit onchain finance.
Where Plume Thinks the Rules Should Apply
As the developer of the Nest vault protocol, Plume has a direct stake in where regulators draw the line. Nest is a DeFi yield aggregation protocol that enables users to swap stablecoins for vault tokens that represent a basket of institutional-grade yields from tokenized real-world assets such as treasuries, bonds, real estate, private credit, and ETFs.
In its submission, Plume argues that securities regulation should cover two specific layers: the curators who select yield strategies, and the vault tokens that investors hold as a result. The underlying code layer and vault administrators, by contrast, should remain outside the regulatory perimeter, except where those admin functions are already regulated, such as transfer agency work.
That framing is notable given Plume's own regulatory history. As a registered transfer agent, Plume manages digital securities and shareholder records directly onchain, supporting interoperability with the U.S. Depository Trust and Clearing Corporation (DTCC) settlement network.
Depending on their design and structure, crypto vaults could raise investment contract or investment company issues, and onchain loans may bear the hallmarks of securities "notes." Plume's submission attempts to give the SEC a workable framework that captures the parts of the vault stack that carry genuine investor risk, without sweeping in the technical infrastructure beneath it.
Vaults have become one of DeFi's fastest-growing products, holding over $8 billion in assets, with both Coinbase and Robinhood having integrated vault products to offer yield on customer stablecoin balances. The scale of the market gives Plume's regulatory pitch added weight as the SEC works toward more formal guidance.

Aurora et son jeton natif évoluent
@Auroraisnear, la machine virtuelle Ethereum (EVM) construite au-dessus de @NearProtocol, fait partie des mouvements les plus remarquables du marché des cryptomonnaies aujourd’hui. L’actif natif du protocole, $AURORA, a bondi de plus de 200% au cours des dernières 24 heures et est en hausse d’environ 670% sur les 30 derniers jours, selon les données de CoinGecko.
Les données de trading de KuCoin montrent que la paire AURORA/USDT est en hausse de 163% au cours des dernières 24 heures au moment de la publication, avec un volume de transactions qui grimpe de plus de 1 600% par rapport au jour précédent, signalant une forte accélération de l’activité du marché. D’après les données de Coinbase, $AURORA arrive en première position en matière de progression du prix au sein de la couche 1 sur tous les horizons temporels, avec des hausses quotidiennes largement supérieures à celles de ses pairs, y compris $NEAR.

@Injective a dévoilé une nouvelle couche de récompenses pour son programme communautaire de rachat de $INJ, appelé la campagne « Stockdrop ». Les participants qui brûlent $INJ via le programme mensuel pourront désormais recevoir des parts d’actions tokenisées attribuées de manière aléatoire, liées à la @RobinhoodApp Chain, notamment des noms tels que $NVDA, $SPCX, $SNAP et $HIMS.
Comment fonctionnent le BuyBack et le Stockdrop
Le Community BuyBack est un événement onchain mensuel qui permet à n’importe qui de participer au mécanisme déflationniste d’Injective. Les participants s’engagent avec $INJ et, en retour, reçoivent une part proportionnelle des revenus générés à travers l’écosystème d’Injective. Le $INJ échangé est ensuite brûlé de façon permanente, ce qui réduit l’offre totale. La campagne Stockdrop ajoute une nouvelle dimension à ce modèle : en plus des revenus de l’écosystème, les participants peuvent désormais recevoir, dans leurs récompenses, des parts d’actions tokenisées distribuées aléatoirement.

Coinbase Adds Fixed-Rate Option Through Morpho Midnight
@Coinbase has expanded its onchain lending suite with fixed-rate, $BTC-backed loans for U.S. customers, excluding those in New York. The product is built on the @Morpho Midnight protocol, which runs on the @Base Layer 2 network, and gives borrowers the ability to lock in a specific interest rate and repayment date before drawing down funds against their crypto holdings.
Morpho launched Midnight on Base in July to bring fixed rates and defined loan terms to onchain lending, where borrowing rates have historically been variable. Coinbase is the first major consumer platform to offer loans through Midnight at scale, according to a Morpho spokesperson.
The new product adds to Coinbase's existing variable-rate loan offering, also powered by Morpho, giving users a choice between the two structures. Morpho says the variable-rate loans have more than $1.4 billion outstanding against roughly $3 billion in collateral.
How the Loans Work
When a borrower takes out a loan through Coinbase's Morpho integration, their BTC is converted to Coinbase Wrapped BTC (cbBTC) and transferred to a Morpho smart contract where it is held as collateral. The USDC proceeds are then deposited directly into the borrower's Coinbase account. The fixed-rate structure is a meaningful shift from the variable model, where interest rates are calculated automatically by Morpho based on market conditions and can vary with each block created on the Base blockchain.
Midnight has around $30 million in deposits as it continues to roll out. Morpho's broader variable-rate protocol, Morpho Blue, holds $5.2 billion in outstanding loans and $16 billion in deposits across all integrations.
The loans are available to customers starting in the U.S., excluding New York State, with plans to expand to more markets.

Stellar ajouté au réseau multi-chaînes de BVNK
@BVNKFinance a ajouté une prise en charge native de l’écosystème @StellarOrg, ouvrant le règlement de stablecoins sur plus de 130 marchés via une seule connexion API. Cette évolution permet un règlement de stablecoins au niveau du sous-centime à fort volume, étendant la portée de BVNK sur un paysage mondial des paiements qui demeure profondément fragmenté.
L’intégration à Stellar fait partie de plusieurs étapes d’infrastructure @BVNKFinance a mises en place pour unifier la liquidité sur plusieurs réseaux blockchain, offrant aux clients institutionnels un point d’accès unique aux flux de stablecoins multi-chaînes plutôt que de gérer des connexions distinctes pour chaque réseau.

Une intégration multi-outils
@Infosys, l’une des plus grandes sociétés de services informatiques au monde, a noué une collaboration avec @Chainlink afin d’amener son infrastructure dans le secteur des actifs numériques. Une démarche qui pourrait accélérer considérablement l’institutionnalisation de la finance onchain.
Infosys a conclu un partenariat stratégique avec Chainlink pour standardiser l’adoption de l’infrastructure oracle dans les systèmes mondiaux de banque et de paiements. Le géant des services informatiques, qui prend en charge des infrastructures financières essentielles pour plus de 1,7 milliard de comptes clients, intégrera plusieurs composants de Chainlink afin de connecter de grandes institutions financières aux marchés onchain.

@SoFi Technologies (NASDAQ: SOFI) and @Mastercard (NYSE: MA) have announced that stablecoin settlement is now live across SoFi Bank, N.A. As part of the launch, SoFi Bank is migrating its entire $25 billion card program to stablecoin settlement of transactions using SoFiUSD, the first stablecoin issued by a nationally chartered bank.
SoFiUSD, the company's fully reserved U.S. dollar stablecoin, is the first stablecoin offered by a U.S. nationally chartered and insured deposit bank on a public, permissionless blockchain. SoFiUSD is issued by SoFi Bank, an OCC-regulated, nationally chartered bank. The stablecoin is redeemable 1:1 for U.S. dollars and backed by reserves consisting primarily of cash.
From Pilot to Full Production
The move to full production follows the companies' partnership first announced in March, bringing SoFiUSD, issued by a federally regulated bank, to Mastercard's global payments network. The launch expands how card issuers, acquirers and merchants can manage settlement and liquidity through trusted payment infrastructure, while providing a path to broader adoption of bank-issued stablecoins in payments.
In June 2026, Mastercard announced plans to expand its settlement capabilities with additional intraday, weekend and holiday card settlement, supporting both fiat currencies and on-chain card settlement using regulated stablecoins. Mastercard said the enhancements were intended to give issuers and acquirers greater flexibility in how they settle card-based transactions across its global payments network, particularly for cross-border payments, treasury and payouts.
SoFiUSD is currently available on Ethereum and Solana, while Mastercard's broader stablecoin settlement plans encompass eight blockchain networks: Arbitrum, Base, Canton, Ethereum, Polygon, Solana, Tempo, and the XRP Ledger.
Merchants and Broader Adoption in Sight
The product is not limited to use by SoFi Bank. SoFi is in active discussions with large merchants across the U.S. regarding stablecoin-based settlement arrangements, ranging from large multinational retailers to technology service platforms.
The launch also highlights how bank-issued stablecoins can operate alongside existing payment infrastructure, helping bridge traditional financial systems and blockchain-based networks. SoFiUSD was made available to SoFi members to buy, sell, hold and convert directly within the SoFi app on May 27, 2026, marking the first time a U.S. national bank-issued stablecoin was available directly on a banking app.

@CMEGroup, the world's leading derivatives marketplace, has officially announced plans to launch futures contracts for Bitcoin Cash ($BCH) and @Uniswap ($UNI). The contracts are set to go live on October 19, pending regulatory review.
Contract Details
The derivatives marketplace will offer both standard and Micro-sized contracts for the two cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin Cash futures will be sized at 250 $BCH, with Micro Bitcoin Cash futures at 25 $BCH. Uniswap futures will cover 10,000 $UNI, and Micro Uniswap futures 1,000 $UNI. The contracts will trade on the CME Globex platform.
Giovanni Vicioso, Global Head of Cryptocurrency Products at CME Group, said the contracts are "designed for greater versatility and capital efficiency" and will allow clients to manage price risk within the company's regulated marketplace.
Growing Institutional Appetite
The company said the new contracts respond to client demand for institutional-grade risk-management tools as crypto markets develop. The Bitcoin Cash and Uniswap futures expand CME Group's single-asset cryptocurrency suite, which already includes futures on Bitcoin, Ether, XRP, Solana, Cardano, Chainlink, Stellar, Avalanche, and Sui.
The move comes against a backdrop of strong platform growth. CME Group reported crypto futures and options average daily volume of 279,800 contracts, worth $8.3 billion in notional value, in the first half of 2026, with average open interest of 264,600 contracts valued at $15.4 billion notional. The 2026 expansion into Cardano, Chainlink, Stellar, Avalanche, and Sui futures has generated more than $1 billion in total notional value year-to-date.
$BCH rose from $270 to $303, a gain of around 12%, while $UNI climbed 11% to $9.70 from $8.70 following the announcement.
