Tariff Truce Boosts Market Confidence 🤝

🦄 Uniswap Hits $3 Trillion Milestone
Uniswap has officially become the first decentralized exchange (DEX) to surpass $3 trillion in cumulative trading volume since its launch in 2018, according to founder Hayden Adams. This marks a major milestone for the DeFi space.
📊 The platform currently sees over $3 billion in daily trading volume, placing it close to centralized competitors like Bybit ($3.8B) and ahead of PancakeSwap ($2.7B), though still behind Binance ($20B).
💧 Despite the trading surge, Uniswap’s TVL remains at $5 billion, roughly half of its 2021 peak. Meanwhile, the UNI token is still trading over 80% below its all-time high of $45 from May 2021.

CryptoQuant CEO: “Dark Stablecoins” Could Emerge in the Future 🧐
In response to increasing financial censorship, CryptoQuant’s CEO predicts the rise of “dark stablecoins” — censorship-resistant digital dollars that avoid government control. 💵
🔹 Unlike Bitcoin, which is decentralized, most stablecoins (like USDT, USDC) rely on centralized issuers and reserves.
🔹 Future regulations may include auto-taxation, wallet freezes, and ID requirements.
🔹 As a result, users may shift toward decentralized or unregulated alternatives for cross-border transfers.
🔹 Two possible paths: algorithmic stablecoins or those issued by countries ignoring censorship.
🔹 If Tether stops complying with U.S. demands, it could become a "dark" stablecoin again.

Searches for "Etherium" (yep, with an i) are on the rise — a classic sign that retail is flooding back into crypto. When spelling goes out the window, FOMO usually walks in. 🤷
It’s the same old pattern: First come the typos, then come the tops 🧓💸

🛡 Cardano Aims to Launch First Privacy Stablecoin
Charles Hoskinson says Cardano wants to be the first blockchain to host a privacy-enabled stablecoin — one that works like digital cash, without leaving a permanent trail on public ledgers. 🔒💵
💬 “Not everyone wants their purchases tracked forever,” he said on a recent podcast.
⚖️ But there’s a catch: regulators worldwide are cracking down on privacy coins like Monero and Zcash, citing crime concerns. The EU plans a full ban by 2027, and U.S. lawmakers recently blocked a major stablecoin bill.
🔍 Hoskinson believes selective disclosure — allowing verified transparency only when required — could balance privacy with compliance.
🧪 Cardano’s stablecoin ecosystem is small for now ($31.5M), but this move could set a new precedent in the $243B market.
