The CPI report goes live, which is estimated to point to inflation remaining at around 3.3%-3.4% annually, while core CPI is expected to ease…

A lower share can result when newly issued tokens accumulate outside contracts even if the amount in contracts stays near its earlier level. The study’s Ethereum series reflects that distinction: it shows far more $USDT in non-contract accounts as issuance grew, without a comparable sustained increase in smart-contract holdings. The percentage change alone is therefore a poor way to infer a withdrawal of dollars from DeFi. Figure 10 of the study places Ethereum contract-held $USDT at roughly $10 billion to $15 billion toward the end of its plotted period, and Tron’s at around $1 billion or less. These are approximate…

According to reporting by CoinDesk, ESMA noted that firms across the EU are increasingly deploying AI tools and tokenised offerings to gain market share, and that this kind of innovation “brings benefits but also risks.” The watchdog and national regulators intend to examine how firms use these technologies in core client-facing activities, not just in back-office processes.
