Polish, as it simply implies, means improving and refining something until it is near perfection; thus, the “polish” update on X by Kusama might refer to final development work, but connecting it to Shiba Inu or an upcoming announcement would be speculative at this stage. Kusama has very often teased what he is working on or what is coming down the pipeline through his X updates, and the Shiba Inu community is very attentive. In February 2026, Kusama shared details of his own independent project, an AI-powered relationship platform that aims to help users recognize trends, friction points, and compatibility…

The exchange has stressed that customers are not losing access to their tokens and can still withdraw them. Coinbase had previously said that trading would be suspended on Coinbase.com, including Simple and Advanced Trade, as well as Coinbase Exchange and Coinbase Prime. The decision followed one of its regular token reviews. Coinbase has not publicly identified a specific listing requirement that IoTeX failed to meet. IOTX was initially added to Coinbase in August 2021 after a major bull run. IoTeX has since evolved beyond that original IoT-focused pitch. It started focusing on decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN), artificial intelligence, and…

How reserve plumbing differs from QE QE is designed to ease monetary policy. It typically uses large-scale purchases of longer-term Treasuries and agency mortgage-backed securities to remove duration risk from private portfolios, press down on longer-term rates and loosen broader financial conditions. Reserve-management purchases, or RMPs, have a narrower purpose. They add reserves through purchases of bills and other short-dated Treasuries so the Fed can implement its chosen short-term rate as currency, Treasury balances and other liabilities change. Vice Chair Philip Jefferson made that distinction in January, describing QE as a stimulus tool that removes duration risk and RMPs as…

Path to an NYSE Arca Listing The conversion is not yet complete and still hinges on regulatory approval. NYSE Arca filed its own application with the SEC under Rule 19b-4 on January 24, 2025, seeking permission to list and trade the shares, and the registration statement notes that the listing arrangement remains subject to SEC sign-off. Once effective, the shares are expected to be listed on NYSE Arca under the ticker LTCN and issued only in baskets of 10,000 shares, with each share representing a fractional undivided beneficial interest in the trust’s Litecoin holdings.

Countries can change the currency mix of their portfolios, the “preferences” channel. Alternatively, their total reserves can grow or shrink, changing their weight in the global average. When a country with a below-average dollar allocation accumulates reserves, it can pull down the worldwide dollar share without cutting its own allocation. Switzerland did that between 2015 and 2019: its reserve growth pushed the aggregate share down even as its own dollar allocation rose. For that period, 76 countries had complete endpoint data within a 79-country exercise. Their preferences and reserve-size contributions declined by 1.2 and 1.5 percentage points, respectively. For 2019-2023,…

The measures form part of Hong Kong’s plan to develop its financial markets through digitalization and tokenization, covering stablecoins, digital bonds, tokenized deposits, wholesale CBDC settlement and digital asset custody surveillance.

As crypto.news previously reported, the city’s first stablecoin issuer licenses went to two institutions with banking backgrounds in April. The framework requires licensed issuers to maintain eligible reserve assets and remain under ongoing regulatory supervision. One of the licensed issuers, Standard Chartered…
