[USDC takes 56% share of euro stablecoin trading, overtaking USDT]

USDC has overtaken USDT in the euro-denominated stablecoin trading market, with its share of euro trading rising from 10% in January 2024 to 56% now, Cointelegraph reported, citing a Kaiko report.

The shift accelerated as major exchanges restricted USDT trading for customers in the European Economic Area under the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets regulation, or MiCA. USDC also led in liquidity, with its euro-denominated order book liquidity running about 40% higher than USDT’s, according to Kaiko. Even so, USDT’s global circulating supply remains about 2.5 times larger than USDC’s.

[CFTC reexamines whether Polymarket blocked U.S. users from offshore platform]

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission is investigating whether Polymarket took sufficient steps to block U.S. users from accessing its offshore platform, Reuters reported, citing industry sources. The probe is focused on Polymarket’s geolocation-based access controls and advertising activity in the United States.

The CFTC is also examining customer sign-up procedures and user protection measures on Polymarket’s U.S. platform.

Reuters added that the CFTC and the U.S. Department of Justice had also conducted and closed a similar investigation in 2025.

[Campbell says stablecoins shift bank deposits rather than drain them]

Austin Campbell, founder and CEO of Zero Knowledge, said stablecoins move bank deposits rather than destroy them, arguing in an interview with CoinDesk that deposit flight caused by stablecoins is mathematically impossible.

Campbell said ownership of money changes, but the funds do not actually leave the banking system. When someone buys a stablecoin, the money goes into another person’s bank account, and when the stablecoin is redeemed, the process works in reverse, Campbell said. Deposit ownership therefore moves between accounts or banks, but the overall pool of funds does not disappear in the process, according to Campbell. Campbell added that stablecoins are closer to cash or money market products than to bank deposits created through leverage.

[BTC exchange net outflows hit 5-week high as focus turns to $80K support]

Investors are moving Bitcoin off exchanges ahead of economic data releases including the Federal Reserve’s benchmark rate decision, GDP and PCE inflation figures, according to blockchain analytics platform Santiment. The data showed net Bitcoin outflows from exchanges reached 14,900 BTC, marking the largest daily net outflow in five weeks.

Santiment said heavier Bitcoin outflows than inflows to exchanges suggest relatively less positioning for immediate selling. It identified $80,000 as a support level and said if BTC holds that level and exchange reserves keep falling, the price could rebound to $82,500-$84,000. If BTC falls under $79,000, however, the bullish outlook could weaken. Santiment added the market should also watch whether BTC regains $82,500 after the macroeconomic data releases.
