Last week in crypto was anything but quiet. From Tether hinting at a new stablecoin amid regulatory pressure to Ripple dropping $1.25 billion on a major acquisition. Here\u2019s a breakdown of the top nine stories you need to know.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"text-bg-color\" id=\"block_506fd7fe3088af85b34f09fdb5d8fb41\">\r    <div class=\"text-bg-color__content\">\r                <p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Try out <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=weekly-digest&amp;utm_campaign=2\"><strong>Paybis<\/strong><\/a><strong> now to buy, sell, swap, and manage your favorite cryptos.<\/strong><\/p>\n    <\/div>\r<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_tip8sbtwxjvm\"><\/a>Tether Considers Launching New Stablecoin Amid U.S. Regulatory Pressures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino has indicated that the company may develop a new <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thecoinrepublic.com\/2025\/04\/07\/tether-considers-u-s-only-stablecoin-amid-new-regulatory-pressure-ft\/?amp\">stablecoin<\/a> tailored for the U.S. market if regulatory challenges threaten USDT&#8217;s viability. This initiative aligns with <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/buy-tether\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=weekly-digest&amp;utm_campaign=3\">Tether&#8217;s<\/a> broader strategy to expand into the U.S. payments sector, potentially offering a stablecoin-enabled point-of-sale system to rival existing platforms like Square. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite Tether&#8217;s significant global presence, it faces hurdles in achieving widespread adoption in the U.S., where traditional bank-held dollars dominate consumer and merchant transactions. Ardoino emphasizes the need for regulatory clarity to facilitate this expansion. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_fxdsdr339ek\"><\/a>Ethereum Whale Holding $106M Liquidated at $1,650 Price Point<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A significant <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/buy-ethereum\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=weekly-digest&amp;utm_campaign=3\">Ethereum<\/a> holder, possessing approximately 67,570 ETH valued at around <a href=\"https:\/\/coinfomania.com\/ethereum-whale-wiped-out-over-100-million-lost-in-sudden-price-plunge\/\">$106 million<\/a>, was liquidated when Ethereum&#8217;s price dropped to $1,650. This event underscores the risks associated with leveraged positions in volatile markets. The liquidation likely had ripple effects across decentralized finance platforms, affecting liquidity and market sentiment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_vums4gynynmt\"><\/a>FTX Cancels 392,000 Customer Claims Worth $2.5B Due to KYC Failures<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>FTX has invalidated approximately 392,000 customer claims totaling <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dlnews.com\/articles\/markets\/ftx-to-toss-out-billions-in-claims-tied-to-kyc-failures\/\">$2.5 billion<\/a>, citing failures in Know Your Customer (KYC) compliance. The exchange&#8217;s decision affects a substantial number of users who did not meet the necessary identification requirements. This move raises concerns about the balance between regulatory compliance and user accessibility in the cryptocurrency space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_6rej0azcd3uh\"><\/a>Bitcoin User Pays $60,000 in Transaction Fees<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A Bitcoin user recently paid 0.75 BTC, equivalent to about <a href=\"https:\/\/cointelegraph.com\/news\/panicked-bitcoiner-mistakenly-pays-0-75-btc-in-fees\">$60,000<\/a>, solely in transaction fees. This unusually high fee suggests either a user error or a deliberate attempt to prioritize the transaction&#8217;s confirmation. Incidents like these draw attention to the complexities of transaction fee mechanisms within the Bitcoin network. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_i1zg08bgxw47\"><\/a>Ripple Acquires Hidden Road for $1.25 Billion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ripple has announced its acquisition of multi-asset prime broker Hidden Road for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/news\/articles\/2025-04-08\/ripple-to-acquire-prime-brokerage-hidden-road-for-1-25-billion\">$1.25 billion<\/a>, marking one of its largest deals to date. This strategic move aims to integrate <a href=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/buy-ripple\/?utm_source=blog&amp;utm_medium=weekly-digest&amp;utm_campaign=3\">Ripple&#8217;s <\/a>crypto operations with Hidden Road&#8217;s services, enhancing Ripple&#8217;s reach in traditional finance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>CEO Brad Garlinghouse highlighted the favorable U.S. regulatory environment as a key factor enabling this expansion. The acquisition is expected to increase the utility of Ripple&#8217;s U.S. dollar-pegged stablecoin, RLUSD, in institutional markets. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><picture class=\"attachment-pinterest\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"680\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/word-image-7953-2.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7955\" srcset=\"https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/word-image-7953-2.jpeg 680w, https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/word-image-7953-2-300x300.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/paybis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/word-image-7953-2-150x150.jpeg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 680px) 100vw, 680px\" \/><a href=\"http:\/\/pinterest.com\/pin\/create\/button\/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpaybis.com%2Fblog%2Fpaybis-weekly-crypto-digest-3%2F&media=https%3A%2F%2Fpaybis.com%2Fblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2025%2F04%2Fword-image-7953-2.jpeg&description=This+Week+in+Crypto%3A+Stablecoins%2C+Liquidations%2C+and+Scandals\" class=\"pin-it-button\" target=\"_blank\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12.289,2C6.617,2,3.606,5.648,3.606,9.622c0,1.846,1.025,4.146,2.666,4.878c0.25,0.111,0.381,0.063,0.439-0.169 c0.044-0.175,0.267-1.029,0.365-1.428c0.032-0.128,0.017-0.237-0.091-0.362C6.445,11.911,6.01,10.75,6.01,9.668 c0-2.777,2.194-5.464,5.933-5.464c3.23,0,5.49,2.108,5.49,5.122c0,3.407-1.794,5.768-4.13,5.768c-1.291,0-2.257-1.021-1.948-2.277 c0.372-1.495,1.089-3.112,1.089-4.191c0-0.967-0.542-1.775-1.663-1.775c-1.319,0-2.379,1.309-2.379,3.059 c0,1.115,0.394,1.869,0.394,1.869s-1.302,5.279-1.54,6.261c-0.405,1.666,0.053,4.368,0.094,4.604 c0.021,0.126,0.167,0.169,0.25,0.063c0.129-0.165,1.699-2.419,2.142-4.051c0.158-0.59,0.817-2.995,0.817-2.995 c0.43,0.784,1.681,1.446,3.013,1.446c3.963,0,6.822-3.494,6.822-7.833C20.394,5.112,16.849,2,12.289,2\"><\/path><\/svg><\/a><\/picture><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/PepeM2k\/status\/1910308655636897907\">X Social Media Platform<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_ebjgnqepu3s1\"><\/a>Binance to Launch Yield-Bearing Stablecoin LDUSDT<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Binance is set to introduce <a href=\"https:\/\/www.binance.com\/en\/square\/post\/22686457314929\">LDUSDT<\/a>, its second yield-bearing stablecoin, which will be usable as collateral on its platform. This initiative reflects Binance&#8217;s efforts to offer more versatile financial instruments to its users.

The transfer follows Bankman-Fried&#8217;s conviction on multiple counts related to the collapse of FTX. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><a id=\"post-7953-_uhjlqwnplg9q\"><\/a>CryptoPunk #3100 Sold at a $10 Million Loss<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The owner of CryptoPunk #3100 has sold the NFT at a loss of <a href=\"https:\/\/en.cryptonomist.ch\/2025\/04\/11\/cryptopunk-3100-sold-at-a-loss-of-10-million-what-is-happening-to-the-nft-market\/\">$10 million<\/a>, highlighting the volatility and speculative nature of the NFT market. Originally purchased during the NFT boom, the asset&#8217;s significant depreciation underscores the risks associated with investing in digital collectibles.
