Emerging Prime Trust ties have traders fretting over TUSD

With short interest mounting, traders say they’re parsing liquidity, as well as pricing, on the stablecoin True USD.  The issuers of True USD (TUSD) had previously claimed that it had “no exposure” to digital asset on- and off- ramp company Prime Trust that had been recently shut down by Nevada regulators. But most recent attestation reports as reviewed by Blockworks, said that it has a $26,000 exposure to the company — which regulators have moved to place under receivership. That exposure, though, is a pittance of TUSD’s $3 billion circulating supply.  Minting and redemption mechanisms around TUSD tokens have become muddled, with some users saying they’ve had trouble on both fronts.  Carlos Gonzalez, a research analyst at 21.co, told Blockworks on Thursday that it “didn’t make a lot of sense” for TUSD’s apparent liquidity issues to be attributed to its $26,000 of Prime Trust exposure alone.  “It’s insignificant,” Gonzalez said. “It’s basically nothing [compared to its $3 billio

In response to this tweet, another analyst stated that although XRP may not hit $100 or $50 after its lawsuit with the SEC, he still believes that the remittance token will hit $5, which is still a major feat. Meanwhile, the analyst EGRAG CRYPTO also shared his predictions for XRP’s price in a tweet earlier this month.

Join Our Telegram channel to stay up to date on breaking news coverage The Evolution of Terra LUNA: From Terra Classic LUNC to Terra Blockchain Terra (LUNA) is a public blockchain platform from Terra Classic. It’s known for its algorithmic stablecoin, TerraClassicUSD (UST). Due to a bank run in May 2022, the value of the collateralized LUNC token, which was tied to UST, plummeted, causing LUNA to drop to near zero. In response, Terra Classic was split into a new blockchain called Terra. In January 2018, Terra Classic started developing its blockchain, and in April 2019, it launched. Terra Classic combines traditional fiat currencies’ stability and widespread use with Bitcoin’s censorship resistance. By introducing the UST stablecoin, it made transactions quick and cheap. Among the stablecoins Terra Classic offered were the U.S. dollar, the South Korean won, the Mongolian tugrik, and the International Monetary Fund’s Special Drawing Rights basket. The Terra blockchain keeps

Despite pilot, Swiss National Bank has no plans to launch CBDC

Though the Swiss National Bank is set to pilot central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, amid a changing financial ecosystem, it doesn’t necessarily have plans to launch one.  The pilot is meant to test a wholesale CBDC for “a limited time” to test transactions with market participants on the SIX Digital Exchange, a spokesperson told Blockworks. The central bank sees signs in Switzerland of the development of a new financial ecosystem where transactions take place with tokenized securities and tokenized money — an environment set to make financial markets more efficient.  The SIX Digital Exchange launch ed in November 2021 when parent company SIX issued a tokenized bond that marked “the beginning of a new era,” Thomas Zeeb, SIX’s global head of exchanges, said in a statement at the time.  UBS issued a digital 375 million Swiss franc-denominated, three-year bond on the SIX Digital Exchange about a year later — becoming the first such bond by a banking institution to be listed,

Japan grants tax exemption to token issuers

Image
The National Tax Agency in Japan recently revised a law on June 20, exempting token issuers from paying corporate taxes on unrealized cryptocurrency gains. This revision aims to ease the burden on crypto token issuers and create a more favorable business environment in Japan. Under the new rules, crypto token issuers are exempt from paying corporate tax on unrealized gains if two conditions are met. Firstly, the token s must be issued by the firm and continuously held since issuance. Secondly, the token s must be subject to “transfer restrictions” from issuance. The proposal for these revisions was approved by Japan’s Liberal Democratic Party’s (LDP) tax committee in December 2022. It was subsequently included in the ruling party’s tax reform outline for 2023, with the final approval from the tax authority granted earlier last week. Previously, token issuers were required to pay a hefty 30% tax on unrealized gains for token s they held if those token s were listed on the open

Digital Citizenship: The New Crypto Gateway in Palau for $248

Join Our Telegram channel to stay up to date on breaking news coverage In an unprecedented move, the diminutive island nation of Palau in the Pacific, renowned for its scuba diving sites, has opened doors to the digital world. Offering one-year “digital residency” for a mere $248, the initiative doesn’t require physical presence in the nation. The project has piqued the interest of cryptocurrency traders seeking an alternative route to gain access to trading platforms, barred in countries such as the U.S., China, and Canada due to an ongoing crypto crackdown. Changpeng Zhao (CZ), the founder of Binance, one of the leading crypto exchange platforms, initially advocated for the program. However, after conducting due diligence, Binance dissociated itself from the program. The exchange is not available to American users as it lacks an operational license in the U.S. Established in January 2022, the digital residency program is operated by the Palau government’s tech platform, RNS.
