USDC whale stocks hit two-year low

 


The ongoing price fluctuations in the crypto market are having a significant impact on the USD Coin (USDC) stablecoin. The recent performance whale addresses shows a decline and even hits a two-year low.


As data from Glassnode shows, USD coin metrics are becoming increasingly unspectacular. The stablecoin has seen selloffs and declines recently, causing its market cap to drop.


A report on the second-largest stablecoin by market cap revealed that the US Treasury sanction on Tornado Cash is one of the factors affecting USDC. The sanction has not only affected the market capitalization of USDC, but also that of Tether (USDT).


Following the Tornado Cash case, Circle, USD Coin's parent company, froze approximately 75,000 USDC tokens. These were held by some addresses associated with Tornado Cash.


This also led to the reduction of USDC's market capitalization. Tether, on the other hand, has seen a surge of around $2 million a few days after the US Treasury sanction.


Many commentators in the industry are comparing the growth and decline in market capitalization for USDT and USDC. The majority agrees that investors have switched from USDC to USDT. However, data from on-chain analytics firms are pointing to a massive sell-off over the past two weeks.


Data from Glassnode confirms that USDC's seven-day moving average of currency deposits hit a 17-month low of 138,250. This was a similar level to the 138,810 low seen in March 2021.


There is also an indication that the share of top 1% addresses for USDC has reached 87.667%, which would mark a 22-month low for the stablecoin.


Despite the declining market capitalization, USDC saw an increase in the aspect of performance. This increased in weekly average transaction volumes and hit a three-year high. The value showed up to 228 million USD tokens. This exceeds the value of June 2022, when it was 226 million.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

British financial regulator criticizes cooperation between Binance and Paysafe

  The British financial regulator FCA has expressed concerns about the partnership between market-leading crypto exchange Binance and payment service provider Paysafe. As the British regulator complains, the partnership gives Binance access to the influential British payment network Faster Payments Service (FPS), from which the crypto exchange was previously cut off. Last June, the FCA ordered Binance to stop all business activities in Great Britain. As a result, prominent banks such as Barclays have terminated their cooperation with the leading crypto trading platform . Through the cooperation with Paysafe, Binance can now again offer deposits in British pounds sterling and transactions within the European Payments Area (SEPA). However, this fact is a thorn in the side of the FCA, as it classifies the crypto exchange as a “considerable risk factor”. However, the financial regulator sees little room for maneuver to counteract this, as the Financial Times reports . “ Paysafe understands
