Global #US dollar

In a move seen as a potential response to Western sanctions, Russia is reportedly considering legalizing the use of stablecoins for international transactions. Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies pegged to a stable asset, like the US dollar or gold, aiming to minimize price fluctuations.

Stablecoins, cryptocurrencies designed to maintain a stable value by pegging to a reserve asset like the US dollar, have emerged as a significant force in the digital finance landscape.

In a significant development for the cryptocurrency world, Tether (USDT), a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar, has reached a new milestone on the Tron blockchain. According to data, USDT transactions on Tron surpassed Visa's average daily trading volume in a single day. This marks a potential shift towards a more digital future for global payments.

Ripple, a prominent player in the blockchain and cryptocurrency space, has recently unveiled its latest innovation: a new stablecoin designed to bridge the gap between traditional finance and the digital economy. Dubbed "Real USD," this stablecoin aims to provide a reliable and secure digital representation of the US dollar, catering to the growing demand for stable digital assets.

The financial world is watching closely as the latest US inflation data was released today. The Consumer Price Index (CPI), a key measure of inflation, came in at 0.3% for the month, meeting expectations. The annual inflation rate was reported at 3.4%, slightly below the anticipated 3.6%.

Tether, the issuer of the world's most popular stablecoin USDT, has come under scrutiny from European regulators. The controversy stems from Tether's continued issuance of large amounts of USDT – reportedly over 1 billion tokens every month.
