A popular crypto expert has revealed why the Dubai government chose XRPL instead of Bitcoin for its real estate tokenization project. Earlier this week, the Dubai Land Department (DLD) announced the launch of its first-ever tokenized real estate platform, Prypco Mint. The initiative follows a partnership with multiple entities, including Prypco, the Dubai Future Foundation, Ctrl Alt, and the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority.

However, this suspension expires on July 14, which is less than a month from today, so the EU is now in a dilemma between retaliation or recession risk. Originally, US President Donald Trump threatened to raise tariffs on EU imports from the initial 25% to a drastic 50%, with talks ongoing until a July deadline. Due to this, Brussels has prepared its response, an extensive €21 billion list of counter-tariffs that could potentially expand to…

Circle has advanced its USDC remarkably this year, and Protos has compiled data on three metrics by which it…

Jamie Dimon, CEO of JPMorgan Chase, one of the leading banks in the USA, made remarkable statements in his speech at the first Reagan National Economic Forum held in California. Dimon said the United States should stockpile weapons, ammunition and drones instead of Bitcoin.

We all know we need to do this and there is no debate about it.” Dimon’s words were interpreted as an indirect reference to the presidential decree signed by Trump in March, which foresaw the creation of a Bitcoin…
After bouncing from a weak low at $2,200 earlier this week, the Ethereum price today is trading near $2,485, recovering sharply from recent losses.
