Joseph Lubin: Ethereum is not a security, but a highly liquid commodity

🔹 Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin said in an interview with CNBC that the second largest cryptocurrency by capitalization is not a security. According to him, the asset is more like a highly liquid commodity.

💬 “I don’t think it makes sense to speculate about something extremely unlikely [Ethereum being recognized as a security]. People are buying barrels of oil with the expectation of a profit,” Lubin said.

He added that "anyone can say anything, but that doesn't make it true."

🪙 Stablecoins form the core of countless new economic tools that Tether believes will be essential to most modern economies in the coming decades. They eliminate redundant and inefficient layers of bloat and middlemen designed to extract value from financial transactions. Given that financial transactions are the lifeblood of an economic system, any tax on the basic structure of payments is a tax on the entire economy as a whole.

💵 The money of the future will restore this captured value back to the people. It will empower individuals to save, earn, and do more.

💬 Prioritizing Risk Management Amid Growth

The last several weeks have been a significant time for the industry, and for Tether. In the wake of bank failures across the US and Europe, Bitcoin has emerged ready to do what it was always built to do - protect people's wealth against financial system failures. However, we have also seen other stablecoins face major challenges due to their reserves being concentrated among failed US banks or in financial distress because of inappropriate risk management.

⚠️ Contrary to the irresponsible reporting by Bloomberg, Tether wants to unequivocally re-iterate that it has no exposure to Silvergate, Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. The title and tone of its recent article would lead the average reader to believe that this was somehow false.

However, several paragraphs into the article Bloomberg states the following: "The offshore stablecoin provider has never been sanctioned, and therefore doing business with the firm wouldn’t be illegal, according to Alma Angotti, who held senior enforcement positions with the Securities and Exchange Commission and Treasury".

After the clickbait title, even the journalist admits that there wouldn’t be any issue for Tether and Signature Bank to collaborate, yet it fails to explain that Tether didn’t have an account with Signature Bank.

❗️ It is shocking that Bloomberg continues to rely on misinformation and clickbait in its attempt to stay barely relevant.

🛍 Fashion brand Guess, backed by the USDTSCAN platform and its super representative Luganodes, now accepts Bitcoin🪙 and Tether🪙 in Lugano as payment for goods.

💳 Global fashion brand Guess will now be able to accept crypto payments in BTC and USDT in the Swiss city of Lugano thanks to a new collaboration.

Plan B, a joint initiative of the City of Lugano, Tether and Luganodes, today announced a partnership with Guess to officially introduce Bitcoin, Tether and LVGA payments in Lugano retail stores. Tether, the tech firm that powers the blockchain of the largest stablecoin by market cap (USDT), and the city of Lugano have come up with a “Plan B” to accelerate cryptocurrency adoption. Now more than 150 stores and businesses in Lugano, including McDonald's, accept Bitcoin, Tether and LVGA in addition to fiat currency as payment for their goods and services.

🪙 USDTSCAN Wallet, as one of the partners of Plan B, will act as the main payment instrument when making purchases in Guess, McDonald's, Giorgio Armani S.p.A. and many others.

Shoppers will be able to purchase clothing and accessories at the Guess boutique using a POS system powered by Bitcoin Lightning Network technology and three digital currencies: Bitcoin, Tether and LVGA. A custom campaign was also announced offering 10% cashback to LVGA customers. In addition, in the first few months after activation, the transaction fee will be zero.

🔥 To make Bitcoin, Tether, and Lugano's own LVGA Points token legal tender, the Swiss city of Lugano joined forces in March 2022 with stablecoin issuer Tether and transaction tracking analytics platform USDTSCAN. El Salvador and the Swiss city of Lugano also signed a Memorandum of Understanding on economic cooperation last October, intending to promote the utility of Bitcoin.

🔹 Ethereum inflow to staking declined on the eve of Shapella

Growth in Ethereum staking deposits has declined due to regulatory pressure and the upcoming Shanghai-Capella (Shapella) hard fork, Glassnode experts have noted.

🔔 The developers have scheduled an upgrade for April 12th. In March, the Ethereum team hardforked Shapella on the Goerli testnet . Prior to that, I activated the update on the Sepolia test network. The hard fork includes changes to Ethereum consensus levels and execution. Its main goal is to open access to the withdrawal of ETH from staking.

Glassnode experts recalled that centralized sites like Kraken, Binance and Coinbase competed for the influx of deposits into staking “from the early days of Beacon Chain.” However, they lost a significant market share, while the Lido DeFi platform gained it.

💬 “When the dust settled between the three giants, it was Lido that emerged victorious, continuing to dominate the influx of deposits to date,” the experts emphasized.

According to the Dune Analytics dashboard , there are 18.2 million ETH locked in staking – more than 15% of the coin supply. Almost 102,000 addresses have made deposits.

🕯 Lido accounts for over 26% of the total staking cryptocurrency, Coinbase accounts for about 6%, and Kraken accounts for 2.3%.

Happy Easter 🎉🎁

😌 Each Representative is represented in a separate region and has at least 3 Super Representatives who are elected by voting or applicability, depending on the ability to provide a level of profitability for the USDTScan staking service at the current time. The distribution of votes and the applicability of the explorer as a service can be tracked on the TronScan and EtherScan partner websites in the sections: Real-time Block Distribution and Explorer-as-a-Service.

⬇️ Each Liquidity Pool uses the required number of income items to ensure the declared APR:

1️⃣ Liquidity Pool: Dual Investment

USDTScan Dual Investment staking direction gives an opportunity to earn on Staking Liquidity Pool using representatives' cryptocurrency at the desired price and date in the future, while earning high rewards no matter which direction the market goes. USDTSCAN representatives buy crypto at a lower price or sell crypto at a higher price for getting high rewards no matter which direction the market goes. Zero trading fees when the target is reached and the “Buy Low” or “Sell High” product is filled allow get the Staking profit at the rate of up to 0.30% per day.

2️⃣ Dual Investment + Cryptocards Cashback

3️⃣ Dual Investment + Cryptocards Cashback + Inter-Exchange Arbitrage

Representatives of USDTScan conduct such trading using special programs and bots. The rate of one cryptocurrency at the moment may differ on different platforms. When buying assets at the lowest cost on one trading platform and selling at the highest price on another platform, the difference between the purchase and sale prices becomes the net profit of the representative and amounts up to 0.40% at the final stage of crediting funds to the liquidity pool.
