CARDANO LACE WALLET INTEGRATES BITCOIN, BOOSTING CROSS-CHAIN CAPABILITIES
▪️Charles Hoskinson announced on Monday that Bitcoin integrates into the Lace Wallet, expanding Cardano’s ecosystem and cross-chain capabilities.
▪️This integration enables users to manage BTC alongside Cardano assets, providing support for multichain functionality.
▪️The news failed to move Cardano’s price significantly, but suggests a positive outlook for ADA.
Cardano (ADA) co-founder Charles Hoskinson announced Monday that Bitcoin (BTC) is integrated into the Lace Wallet, expanding Cardano’s ecosystem and cross-chain capabilities. This integration enables users to manage BTC alongside Cardano assets, providing support for multichain functionality.
The news failed to move Cardano’s price significantly, with ADA trading in a narrow range near $0.70 at the time of writing on Tuesday, but it suggests a positive outlook for the token.
Cardano’s co-founder welcomes Bitcoin
On Monday, Charles Hoskinson announced on his X post that Bitcoin is integrated into the Lace Wallet, a non-custodial wallet platform developed by Input Output Global (IOG), one of the key organizations behind the Cardano blockchain. Lace allows users to send, receive, and stake Cardano’s native cryptocurrency, ADA, and manage other digital assets on the network.
“With this release, Lace becomes even more accessible and versatile, introducing Firefox support, the beta rollout of Bitcoin, and several performance improvements under the hood,” says Lace in its blog post.
This integration enables users to manage BTC alongside Cardano assets, providing support for multichain functionality. However, this news did not significantly impact Cardano’s price on Monday; nonetheless, it suggests a positive outlook for the long term as it expands Cardano’s ecosystem, enhances its cross-chain capabilities, and boosts wider adoption.
Cardano's technical outlook suggests a rally if it closes above $0.74
Cardano price is facing resistance around its 200-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) at $0.71 since last week and declined to find support at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement (drawn from the August 5 low of $0.27 to the December 3 high of $1.32) at $0.66 on Monday. At the time of writing on Tuesday, ADA hovers around the 200-day EMA at $0.71.
If ADA breaks above the 200-day EMA and closes above its weekly resistance level at $0.74, it could extend the rally to retest its next daily resistance at $0.80.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 59, indicating bullish momentum, as it is positioned above its neutral level of 50. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) also exhibited a bullish crossover last week, providing a buy signal and indicating a potential continuation of the upward trend.
However, if ADA’s daily candlestick closes below the 61.8% Fibonacci level at $0.66, it could extend the decline to retest its April 22 low of $0.61.

SOUTH KOREA'S RULING PARTY VOWS TO APPROVE SPOT CRYPTO ETFS, SCRAP KEY BANKING RULE
South Korea’s People Power Party has pledged crypto reforms, including ETF approval and banking rule repeal, ahead of the June election.
▪️South Korea’s People Power Party has pledged to approve spot crypto ETFs and scrap South Korea’s "one exchange, one bank" rule if they win.
▪️The party’s crypto agenda includes corporate crypto trading, stablecoin regulation, and a new Virtual Asset Special Committee this year.
▪️The election outcome could decide the fate of reforms, with opposition leader Lee Jae-myung leading in the polls ahead of the June 3 vote.
South Korea’s People Power Party has vowed to approve spot crypto ETFs, dismantle a major banking restriction, and overhaul digital asset laws before the end of the year, local media reported Monday.
The party revealed its digital asset pledge just weeks after the country’s impeached president, Yoon Suk Yeol, was removed from office for illegally imposing martial law, a political shock that has formed the basis for a fiercely contested snap election on June 3.
The PPP’s proposals include abolishing the "one exchange, one bank" rule, which restricts crypto exchanges to a single banking partner —a regulation blamed for entrenching monopolies and limiting consumer choice.
"It is very restrictive not to be able to trade virtual assets through the bank of your choice," Rep. Park Soo-min said on Monday during the emergency response committee meeting held at the National Assembly.
The PPP has also pledged to legalize spot crypto ETFs within the year. Park stressed the urgency of approval, pointing to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) decision to greenlight spot Bitcoin ETFs last January.
In addition, the party said in its agenda that it would also institutionalize corporate and institutional investor participation in the crypto market within this year.
If PPP wins, starting in Q2, non-profits can engage in crypto trading, with broader participation from around 3,500 corporations and investment firms.
‘Golden standard’
During the committee meeting, Rep. Choi Bo-yoon said that PPP also plans to introduce a "global standard" regulatory system for stablecoins, local media reported.
To oversee the implementation of its digital asset agenda, the party seeks to establish a Virtual Asset Special Committee directly under the presidential office.
The PPP has vowed to enact the Framework Act on the Promotion of Digital Assets, which would subdivide exchange operations, create listing regulations, and introduce a disclosure system for digital asset transactions.
The party’s push aligns with a global shift toward crypto deregulation, triggered by U.S. President Donald Trump’s moves to repeal DeFi broker reporting rules, authorize the creation of a national Bitcoin stockpile, and place crypto as a core element of American financial policy.
Invoking Trump-era deregulation, PPP presidential candidate Hong Joon-pyo recently vowed to “eliminate regulations as much as the Trump administration did” and pledged to expand blockchain applications across South Korean public services.
Still, whether the PPP’s agenda can move forward will depend on the election outcome.
Democratic Party candidate Lee Jae-myung has campaigned on restoring democratic norms and stabilizing the economy, but has offered few specifics about his stance on regulating digital assets.
Current polling shows Lee, who narrowly lost the 2022 race, now holding a commanding lead over his rivals, according to local media.

In his speech at the Union of Arab Banks conference currently being held in Cairo, under the title of Public-Private Partnership, Al-Handhal said, "The current Iraqi government has taken a major role in achieving public-private partnerships, starting with the establishment of the Private Sector Council."
He noted that the private banking sector has begun to expand significantly following the partnership with the government, represented by the expansion of electronic payments and government institutions contracting with companies and banks to develop the infrastructure for government electronic payments.
He added that electronic payments via bank cards in 2024 reached more than 21.1 trillion dinars, through more than 58.4 million transactions, compared to just over 7,000 transactions in 2017. This represents a significant development.
He stressed that the volume of Arab and foreign investments in Iraq over the past two years reached $63 billion, and this came as a result of the partnership between the government and the private sector.
He explained that the development path represents a major gateway to public-private partnerships, and that everyone can participate in this project, which contributes to the development of Iraq's gross domestic product. link

Tishwash: MP: Parliament will resume its sessions normally within the next two days - Urgent
Member of Parliament Jawad Al-Yasari confirmed, on Monday (April 28, 2025), that the Iraqi Parliament will resume its sessions normally within the next two days.
The leftist told Baghdad Today, "The House of Representatives will resume its sessions within the next two days, and there is a determination and will to do so from the House Presidency, and there is an understanding with the parliamentary blocs, with the aim of exploiting the last months of the House's term to pass important laws."
He added that "any controversial law will not be put on the agenda without prior agreement between the parliament's presidency and the leaders of the parliamentary blocs to ensure that sessions are not disrupted, as has happened in the past period." He indicated that "in the coming hours, a date will be set for the resumption of weekly sessions as normal."
Last Saturday, the Parliamentary Legal Committee confirmed that the term of the Iraqi Parliament's legislative and oversight body had "expired."
Committee member Mohammed Anouz told Baghdad Today, "The Iraqi parliament's legislative and oversight role has come to an end due to a political will to obstruct the council's work until the next parliamentary elections. This session has been deliberately obstructed by political disputes since the beginning of the session and continues to this day."
He explained that "there is a deliberate attempt to keep the House of Representatives inactive so as to prevent requests for interpellation and accountability for some officials who enjoy political and partisan protection, as well as to obstruct the passage of some laws so that they remain a bargaining chip and blackmail tool in the hands of some political parties during the coming period. That is why we say that the life of the legislative and oversight council has ended because of these influential political parties."
The scene of a parliament in limbo or in session has become a part of political life in Iraq. Citizens may have grown accustomed to this recurring pattern, or may consider themselves unconcerned with what transpires within the parliament, which could translate into a reluctance to participate in or a boycott of the upcoming parliamentary elections. link

Tishwash: The Finance Committee discusses oil price fluctuations and the regulatory law with international partners.
On Monday, April 28, 2025, the Parliamentary Finance Committee discussed the fluctuations in oil prices and their impact on the budget, with the International Partners Foundation, and with the participation of experts, consultants, university professors and official bodies, in an important workshop to discuss the proposed law for the first amendment to the Federal Revenue Control and Allocation Authority Law No. (55) of 2017.
The House of Representatives' media office said in a statement received by Al-Jabal that it "held an expanded two-day workshop to discuss ways to maximize revenues, in cooperation with the International Partners Foundation, with the participation of experts, consultants, university professors, and relevant official bodies."
Committee Chairman Atwan Al-Atwani noted that "over time and the increasing complexity of the economic landscape have demonstrated the need to review, update, and amend the Authority's legal framework." He explained that "the Finance Committee in the House of Representatives is currently leading a significant legislative effort aimed at introducing the first amendment to Law No. 55 of 2017, a move that reflects an awareness that the law in its current form may not be sufficient to address emerging challenges or fully achieve the ambitious goals set for the Authority."
The International Partners Foundation presented a presentation by Mr. Ken McIntosh and Lord Jeremy Purves, highlighting the most prominent problems and challenges facing the Iraqi economy. They presented the Foundation's vision for overcoming these obstacles, emphasizing the Commission's pivotal role in monitoring and overseeing the allocation of revenues to achieve financial stability and enhance transparency.
According to the statement, "The proposed first amendment, which the House of Representatives completed its first reading, aims to address challenges and enhance the Authority's role through several axes addressed in the interventions and discussions during the workshop, most notably the Authority's role in verifying the fair distribution of revenues when preparing the draft federal general budget, and the accuracy of calculating allocations according to principles and standards determined by a special and precise system.
Approaching the relevant authorities to provide the Authority with the necessary information and documents to enable it to perform its duties effectively. Investigating and investigating to accurately determine the sources and components of federal revenues."
The workshop also included hosting representatives of ministries to exchange advice and opinions, with a focus on the importance of expanding the authority's mandate to include evaluating the performance and financial effectiveness of government institutions, in addition to the need to clearly define the authority's powers to avoid overlapping tasks with other institutions, according to the statement.
The workshop's primary objective, according to the statement, was to "consult and gather input from key stakeholders, including representatives of federal ministries, the regional and local governments, financial and legal experts, and representatives of the International Partners Foundation, on the proposed draft amendment.
The workshop also sought to develop the draft amendment based on the comments and suggestions submitted, with the aim of finalizing it before presenting it for a second reading in the House of Representatives. Additionally, it explored how to enable the Commission to carry out its expanded mandate efficiently and effectively." link

ARIZONA LEGISLATURE PASSES BITCOIN RESERVE BILL, SENDS IT TO GOVERNOR’S DESK: BLOOMBERG GOVERNMENT
▪️The bill, called the Arizona Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act, was passed on Monday by Arizona’s state legislature, Bloomberg Government reported.
▪️If signed by Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs, the state would be the first to require public funds to invest in bitcoin.
Lawmakers in Arizona have passed a bill allowing the state treasurer and retirement system to invest up to 10% of available funds in digital assets, specifically bitcoin, sending it to the governor’s desk for approval, according to Bloomberg Government.
The bill, called the Arizona Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Act, passed Monday in the state legislature, Bloomberg Government reported.
"This bill represents an emerging approach by a state government to integrate cryptocurrency into public financial management, reflecting the growing mainstream acceptance of digital assets," according to the bill text's summary.
The bill's cosponsors are both Republicans: Sen. Wendy Rogers and Rep. Jeff Weninger. If signed by Democratic Governor Katie Hobbs, the state would be the first to require public funds to invest in Bitcoin.
Several states, including Iowa, Missouri, and Texas, are weighing whether to establish a strategic bitcoin reserve. At the federal level, President Donald Trump signed an executive order in March establishing a strategic bitcoin reserve and digital asset stockpile.
Some asset managers have weighed in on how much bitcoin investors should hold. BlackRock recommended in December allocating 1% to 2% of a portfolio to bitcoin, according to Business Insider. Fidelity has suggested a slightly higher range, recommending 2% to 5%.

CONGRESS STRUGGLES TO MEET TRUMP’S AUGUST DEADLINE FOR U.S. CRYPTO REGULATION
▪️Congress accelerates efforts to finalize U.S. crypto legislation before President Trump’s August deadline.
▪️Lawmakers push for market structure and stablecoin bills as industry calls for action on DOJ prosecution.
▪️The crypto industry urges intervention from Trump’s Crypto Czar as legal battles over developer accountability heat up.
As lawmakers return to Capitol Hill after a two-week recess, crypto legislation is at the top of their agenda. With just three months left before President Trump’s August deadline, Congress has a lot of work ahead to craft laws that could define the future of digital assets in America.
Eleanor Terrett took to X to give a *spicy* update on everything that’s brewing.
Crypto Legislation: The Countdown Begins
Lawmakers are hard at work to push through two key bills: the market structure and stablecoin regulations. With little time left before the August deadline, there’s not much room for error. And let’s be honest, it was about time.
Last Friday, the House Financial Services Committee scheduled a joint hearing with the House Agriculture Committee for May 6, titled “American Innovation and the Future of Digital Assets.”
It’s clear that Congress is aiming for a forward-thinking approach.But can they pull it off in time? That’s the million-dollar question.
House Financial Services Committee Chairman French Hill (R-AR) shared that a discussion draft of the new legislation is expected soon. This draft is an updated version of last year’s FIT21 market structure bill. Meanwhile, Senate staffers are working on their own version, incorporating elements from both the 2022 Lummis-Gillibrand Responsible Financial Innovation Act and the FIT21 bill.
Industry Leaders Step Up: DOJ, It’s Time to Listen
While Congress scrambles, the crypto industry is raising its voice.
A petition led by the DeFi Education Fund, along with key industry leaders, has been launched urging President Trump’s Crypto and AI Czar, David Sacks, to intervene in the Department of Justice’s prosecution of Tornado Cash co-founder Roman Storm.
The petition argues that developers shouldn’t be criminally liable for how bad actors use their code, especially when they have no control over it. The legal theory behind the prosecution has the potential to seriously impact innovation.
If lawmakers want to ensure the growth of the crypto ecosystem, this issue needs immediate attention.
What’s Next for Crypto?
With Congress hustling to meet the August deadline and the industry pushing for reform, we’re in for a wild few months.

Bizarrely, Gold Is The Opposite Of The Bitcoin Effect Right Now
Bizarrely, Gold Is The Opposite Of The Bitcoin Effect Right Now
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) April 28, 2025
You’ve probably heard the story.
As the legend goes, on a late-summer morning in 1929, Joseph Kennedy — patriarch of the famous Kennedy family — was headed into his office in downtown New York City. As he sat for a quick shoe shine, the young boy buffing his shoes, barely a teenager, eagerly offered him stock tips.
Kennedy listened politely, but inside, he felt a jolt of alarm.
Bizarrely, Gold Is The Opposite Of The Bitcoin Effect Right Now
Notes From the Field By James Hickman (Simon Black) April 28, 2025
You’ve probably heard the story.
As the legend goes, on a late-summer morning in 1929, Joseph Kennedy — patriarch of the famous Kennedy family — was headed into his office in downtown New York City. As he sat for a quick shoe shine, the young boy buffing his shoes, barely a teenager, eagerly offered him stock tips.
Kennedy listened politely, but inside, he felt a jolt of alarm.
Supposedly he rushed to his office, dumped his entire stock portfolio, and moved heavily into cash. And just weeks later the stock market collapsed.
There’s a good chance this story isn’t true; I’ve often heard it told with Sir John Templeton in place of Joe Kennedy... and when urban legends can’t even get their protagonists straight, that’s usually a sign of fiction.
Curiously, however, a similar thing actually happened to me.
It was March 2009— six months after the Global Financial Crisis kicked off that wiped 50% off the S&P 500.
I was living in Punta del Este, Uruguay at the time and was coincidentally getting my shoes shined before heading to the airport for a trip to Asia.
The shoe shiner, an elderly Uruguayan man, asked me what I did for a living. I mentioned something about finance, at which point he cautioned me to avoid the stock market.
At that point the S&P was at its crisis-era low... and would go on to nearly 10x over the next 16 years.
Another story that is true is from August 1979: Businessweek magazine famously declared "The Death of Equities," capturing the widespread view that stocks (which had suffered in the 1970s) would continue to languish.
Yet the stock market was just about to unleash a multi-decade bull run.
In April 2019, the same Businessweek ran a cover asking, "Is Inflation Dead?", again capturing the popular idea that there would never be inflation again. That turned out to be 100% incorrect.
Then there was the famous Bitcoin craze in November 2017: families across America spent their Thanksgiving holidays opening up Coinbase accounts and bidding up the price of Bitcoin to its (then) all-time high. Crypto subsequently entered a multi-year bear market...
Anytime I see popular bandwagons, I become nervous. And I’m starting to see some signs of that with gold.
One glaring signal is that Costco— which sells gold to its customers— sold out its most recent inventory of American Eagle Gold Coins in less than four days. Gold demand is surging among retail investors.
Dealers are reporting crazy volume. The media is talking about gold daily now, whereas in the past they used to go weeks or months without a mention of gold.
The Wall Street Journal even ran an article this past weekend entitled “How to buy gold”.
Big investment bank analysts who, heretofore had ignored gold or been extremely bearish, are suddenly its biggest champions. Even the notorious Goldman Sachs is now projecting nearly $4,000 gold this year.
And only a handful of analysts are bearish.
Look, we’ve been talking about gold for years... and in particular since 2023 when it became obvious that there were long-term catalysts.
It’s pretty easy to understand: central banks around the world are trading in their US dollars for gold, simply because they don’t have confidence that the dollar will last as the global reserve currency.
And central banks don’t have a lot of options; there are only so many non-dollar asset classes that can absorb hundreds of billions of dollars worth of capital flows. Gold is one of the most convenient.
I’ve explained before that, because of these capital flow trends and catalysts, we could easily see $5,000 or even $10,000 gold over the coming years.
But at the same time, the trend line for the gold price has been incredibly steep ever since its low in 2022. And, again, there are now signs that a retail gold mania may be forming.
I’m not saying that gold is too expensive or that it’s time to sell. These short-term market trends are extremely difficult to predict, and I tend to ignore them.
Instead, I focus on the long-term big picture. And that’s a lot easier to see: the US fiscal situation is in major decline. The government is doing very little about it. And the rest of the world is already diversifying away from the dollar.
All of these trends are good for gold.
Who knows what investors will do over the next few months? But over the next five years, you can make a very strong case that central banks will continue to buy gold and send the price higher.
At the same time, I recognize that it’s difficult for some people to buy an asset when it’s at/near its all-time high... especially when it may suffer a short-term correction.
This is why we’ve been writing about an alternative to gold; because, while gold is near its all-time high, many gold companies are still undervalued relative to gold itself.
I’m talking about really solid, profitable gold miners trading at less than TWO times forward earnings. It’s ridiculous.
In a way it’s the opposite of the crypto phenomenon with Microstrategy (MSTR)— the company which primarily owns and holds Bitcoin.
Microstrategy (technically now called “Strategy”) owns 553,555 Bitcoin worth $52 billion. That’s pretty much their biggest (and nearly only) asset.
Yet the MSTR’s market cap is $92 billion.
In other words, the Bitcoin-related company is worth nearly double the amount of Bitcoin it holds. This makes no sense.
With gold, it’s the opposite. Gold is near its all-time highs... but the gold-related companies are cheap and undervalued.
Some investors are starting to notice— for example, multiple precious metals companies we have published in our investment research service have risen by 40-60%.
One has more than doubled in price... yet is still trading at a forward multiple of just 2x.
So, gold is bizarrely the opposite of the Bitcoin effect with Microstrategy: gold is at a record high, but gold companies are cheap. I’ll say it again— this is not going to last.

The Bank of Canada has no gold reserves and that could pose significant challenges for Canadians amid an unfolding global monetary reset, says Maxime Bernier, founder and leader of the People’s Party of Canada, who is running for Prime Minister.
In an interview with Daniela Cambone on Election Day, Bernier outlines the key issues facing Canada: mass immigration, unsustainable debt, and the potential return to a gold standard under his government.
He warns that a major monetary reset is already underway, driven by high debt levels in Western nations and the diminishing dominance of the U.S. dollar.
Bernier also explores the possibility of a global shift toward a gold-based system for international transactions, which would present challenges for Canadians lacking gold reserves. In 2017, he recalled being “laughed at” by Stephen Harper when discussing the gold standard idea.

Key Facts:
Canada owns no gold reserves.
A monetary reset is inevitable.
Canada’s national debt doubled under Trudeau.
Stephen Harper laughed at Bernier's "gold standard" idea in 2017.

Gold Telegraph: The Last Monetary Reset
4-27-2025
One of the most overlooked moves this week: China’s central bank is investing in the internationalization of the Shanghai Gold Exchange. A war is playing out in the gold market, and it’s about pricing power. Buckle up.
The U.S. dollar index is down nearly 9%, on track for its worst start to the year since 1973 when currencies were cut loose from gold and began to float freely. In other words, the last monetary reset. The signs are everywhere.

BREAKING NEWS: A TOP CONTENDER TO REPLACE JAY POWELL HAS BLAMED THE FEDERAL RESERVE FOR “SYSTEMATIC ERRORS” AND MISHANDLING THE MOST SEVERE INFLATION CRISIS IN DECADES.
Change is in the air.
“Since the panic of 2008, central bank dominance has become a new feature of American governance…”

The next Federal Reserve chair must rebuild what’s been lost. Restoring the monetary integrity of the United States. @judyshel
For years, I’ve warned about the “buy now, pay later” trap. It’s a disgrace that so many rely on this financing to survive. Now, Americans are using it to pay for groceries. Very sad…
I said this 2 years ago: “More and more countries are either ignoring or starting to disrespect the IMF publicly…”
This week: The United States said it would pursue a significant overhaul of the International Monetary Fund.
The Spotlight is on the IMF. Despite a warning from the International Monetary Fund, the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe has successfully sold millions of gold-backed crypto tokens. Iran and Russia have also expressed interest in creating a new stablecoin backed by gold for trade. More and more countries are either ignoring or starting to disrespect the IMF publicly:
1) Zimbabwe ignored IMF warnings on gold-backed crypto tokens. 2) In early April, Tunisia rejected IMF loans, and the President said that Tunisians must count on themselves. 3) The Argentine Vice President recently blamed the country's $44 billion agreement with the International Monetary Fund as a significant factor behind the recent sharp devaluation of the peso and the subsequent wave of inflation, escalating consumer prices by more than 100%.
This is happening as debt from 18 developing nations is trading at distressed levels. A trend worth watching...
A leading pick to replace Jerome Powell says the Federal Reserve is due for nothing less than a complete “strategic reset.” About time… Only at the Federal Reserve could they believe that buying trillions in unwanted assets would end well.
The President of Colombia just called out the International Monetary Fund. Referencing them as “vampires.” The trend continues…

Militia Man Remember, Iraq's original currency was mostly reflected off of oil and rentier country. Not anymore. That's going to mean they're going to need or will have a very strong powerful real effective exchange rate. It's obvious IMO.
Frank26 In the Middle East...they're talking about a new exchange rate and the heavy talk they were dealing with was that maybe...a new rate was coming out at around $1.32. I don't know. I have no idea what the rate will be but I do know the IMF and the World Bank is working with the CBI and the US Treasury to bring purchasing power to their currency. When? I don't know. All the evidence is in the articles.

Good Afternoon Dinar Recaps,
LEDGER LIVE ENABLES STABLECOIN YIELDS DIRECTLY FROM SELF-CUSTODY WITH NEW KILN INTEGRATION
▪️Ledger is enabling users to access stablecoin yields directly from self-custody via its Ledger Live hardware wallet companion app.
▪️Powered by Kiln, the feature is pitched as a way to access DeFi yields for USDC, USDT, USDS and DAI without going through “complex processes.”
Crypto hardware wallet giant Ledger says it will enable stablecoin yields directly from self-custody, in collaboration with DeFi infrastructure platform Kiln.
The feature lets Ledger users earn a passive income of 5% to 9.9% on USDC, USDT, USDS and DAI via several DeFi lending protocols, including Aave, Compound, Morpho, Sky and Spark, while maintaining self-custody.
Kiln operates as the backend, providing access to the protocols that users interact with via Ledger Live, Ledger VP of Consumer Services Jean-Francois Rochet told The Block.
Depositing assets into DeFi lending protocols, such as Aave, is currently the most popular way to earn yield on stablecoins. According to The Block's data dashboard, more than $2 billion in USDT has been borrowed on Ethereum alone.
However, instead of connecting their Ledger hardware to third-party web3 wallets and juggling multiple decentralized applications, Kiln abstracts away this complexity, enabling access to DeFi yields natively within the Ledger Live companion app, available on both desktop and mobile versions.
"Web3 browser wallets are typically insecure," Rochet said. "The direct integration offers enhanced security … without leaving the safety of Ledger Live or going through complex processes."
Ledger argues that the integration opens up access to DeFi returns in a more user-friendly way, including clear signing, a method of signing blockchain transactions so that the signed content is human-readable and easily verifiable.
Users simply enter the amount they wish to deposit and select the protocol with the desired APY from the dropdown, Rochet explained. However, the trade-off is that users receive slightly lower APYs than by going directly to the protocols, he acknowledged.
"Ledger is pioneering security-first yield generation in the DeFi space," the firm said in a statement. "More users than ever are entering crypto, and we're focused on making digital assets accessible without depending on insecure browser wallets or multiple dApps. With Ledger Live and Kiln, people now have transparent and easy solutions to earn rewards. We're excited to see enhanced stablecoin capabilities made available to Ledger Live users."
Ledger claims that despite being some of the most widely used assets in crypto, only 4% of stablecoin holders currently earn yield on their USDC and USDT. "This integration unlocks stablecoin yield for users and grants full autonomy over digital assets, unlike centralized exchanges that take control and limit yields to dApp browsers," the firm said.
Close collaboration
Last year, Ledger and Kiln also teamed up to provide native access to liquid staking token restaking, enabling its users to restake assets on EigenLayer directly within the Ledger Live interface.
"Ledger has been a long-term partner of Kiln, and through our close collaboration, we have developed a deep understanding of the needs of their users," Kiln Co-Founder and CEO Laszlo Szabo said following the latest news. "Working together on the Kiln DeFi integration for Ledger is an exciting opportunity, and we're thrilled to help open up access to stablecoin rewards for millions of Ledger users."
The feature will offer yields on USDC and USDT initially, with DAI and USDS support rolling out later within Ledger Live. While Rochet said there is "definitely a plan to increase coverage," no specific additional assets are on the roadmap for now.
Ledger celebrated its 10th anniversary in 2024 and claims that its devices secure over 20% of the world's crypto assets, having sold more than 7.5 million crypto hardware wallets to customers in 210 countries.
Kiln manages over $11 billion in crypto assets, operating around 4.5% of Ethereum's and 2.6% of Solana's total staked assets.

MASTERCARD AIMS TO POWER STABLECOINS FROM WALLETS TO MERCHANT ACCEPTANCE
Today Mastercard announced a ‘360-degree’ approach to stablecoins. It is positioning itself to service stablecoins much in the same way it does with card payments, to enable services for consumers, merchants and banks.
There’s much lobbying for position in the stablecoin sector, with 2025 predicted as the year that stablecoins move beyond crypto use cases. The race is on to see who can build the largest network of partners.
During the past week, Stripe announced it’s testing its new stablecoin solution based on the Bridge API for business payments. Citi forecast that stablecoins could reach a circulation of $1.6 trillion to $3.7 trillion by 2030. And Circle unveiled plans to launch the Circle Payments Network which aims to coordinate on and off-ramps, including collaborating with Deutsche Bank, Santander, Societe Generale and Standard Chartered.
Plus, in today’s announcement, Mastercard mentioned the potential for stablecoins to become ‘ubiquitous’. Last month startup Ubyx announced plans for a network for banks and fintechs to on and off-ramp an array of stablecoins, including smaller ones.
Mastercard’s range of stablecoin services
Turning to Mastercard’s announcement, it has already provided several of these stablecoin services for quite a while. It’s looking to expand its network of partners.
For consumers it makes stablecoins more user friendly by enabling crypto users to pay with stablecoins using Mastercard branded cards. Many crypto exchanges already provide cards, with OKX the latest to announce one.
On the merchant front, it is partnering with Nuvei and stablecoin issuers Circle and Paxos to enable support for merchants to accept stablecoins, whether or not the payment uses a card. The mention of Paxos is notable given a recent report by Coindesk that Visa plans to become a partner of the Paxos Global Dollar, although Visa hasn’t yet officially confirmed it. Paxos is also the issuer of PayPal’s PYUSD.
For crypto institutions, it provides the Mastercard crypto credential to support compliant remittances combined with user-friendly names.
Plus, Mastercard has the Mastercard Multi-Token Network (MTN), which aims to support an array of digital assets, not just stablecoins. MTN includes links to banks such as JP Morgan and Standard Chartered. So far it allows investors in assets such as Ondo Finance’s tokenized money market funds to on and off-ramp, but stablecoins are part of the plans.
“To realize its potential, we need to make it as easy for merchants to receive stablecoin payments and for consumers to use them,” said Jorn Lambert, chief product officer at Mastercard. “We believe in the potential of stablecoins to streamline payments and commerce across the value chain. Unlocking this is core to how we navigate the rapidly changing world, giving people and businesses the freedom they want by providing the choices they deserve.”

Sun. 27 April 2025 BOMBSHELL: TRUMP ANNOUNCES PLAN TO ABOLISH INCOME TAX FOR THE MIDDLE CLASS — BONANZA FOR AMERICA BEGINS — GESARA & NESARA! …QFS on Telegram
Trump’s declaration today ripped through the old system like a storm through brittle walls. For over a century, Americans have been bound by invisible chains, forced to surrender a portion of their labor to the very forces working against them.
But that ends now. The middle class, the true heartbeat of this nation, will no longer be drained by the parasitic elites, their corrupt tax schemes, and their globalist puppeteers. The IRS — once a weapon wielded against patriots — is being replaced by an entirely new structure: The External Revenue Service.
This system doesn’t look inward to punish Americans; it turns its gaze outward, demanding dues from those who have exploited American strength for far too long. The foreign profiteers, the globalist cartels, and the enemies of American prosperity — they will pay the bill.
Trump’s strategy is not just policy. It’s a shift in the entire balance of economic power. By moving the tax burden onto tariffs, he forces foreign interests to pay for their access to the American market while freeing millions of middle-class families from the shackles of tax slavery.
It’s a complete dismantling of the system that has bled this country dry. The Deepstate is trembling — their financial control mechanisms are collapsing. Their lifelines are being cut. Trump’s move triggers the engines of GESARA and NESARA, setting into motion the long-awaited global economic reset that will return wealth and power to the people.
This isn’t a promise for tomorrow. The effects are already rumbling through the economy. Factories are firing back up, real jobs are being created — not government handouts or minimum-wage scraps, but genuine, wealth-building opportunities that support families and rebuild communities.
The globalist free-trade scam that gutted America’s heartland is being dismantled piece by piece. Trump isn’t just offering a vision. He’s building it now, brick by brick, job by job.

Sun. 27 April 2025 THREE MAJOR MILITARY OPERATIONS ARE IN MOTION: …JFK Awakening Q17 on Telegram
BLACK EAGLE targets the Vatican, City of London, and ancient Swiss vaults — (allegedly) recovering bullion stamped with pre-WWI seals, looted over centuries by monarchies and war financiers.
SOVEREIGN SWORD is dismantling the Digital Babylon Network — a satellite-linked web once used by the IMF, World Bank, and BIS to (allegedly) funnel trillions through dark channels into weapons labs and surveillance programs.
OPERATION IRON JUDGMENT is storming elite island compounds, exposing quantum-encrypted terminals not tied to SWIFT, (allegedly) used by the world’s most powerful families to control untouchable wealth.
All assets recovered are (allegedly) being integrated directly into the QFS. Not one dollar is being returned to the corrupt elite. The stolen wealth of the world is (allegedly) being reclaimed — not just as justice, but as restoration.
And now, the biggest shock of all — The Federal Reserve has (allegedly) been seized. Its links to the Treasury have been severed. Fiat printing is dead. All future currency will be asset-backed, and under NESARA provisions, all debt created through fraudulent lending systems is nullified — (allegedly) including mortgages, student loans, credit cards, and more. This is not a theory. This is the final phase.
Expect a full public announcement by July 4. The era of silent control is ending. The people are rising. And the QFS is the foundation of a future that cannot be corrupted. The storm is(allegedly) not coming — the storm is now.

Militia Man This is a time frame where Iraq is stabilizing their foreign reserves. They've increased their gold up to 163 tons of gold. We have assurances from the likes of Saleh, Al Sudani etc that they have a strong stable economy, they have a strong stable country with security and stability. Hence all the investors are flocking in.
Frank26 [Iraq boots-on-the-ground report] FIREFLY:
Another person is on the news saying the oil issues with prices will have no effect on the budget at this time and would have to drop to $50 to even consider any issues. This is good news. Apparently they must have a new exchange rate. We in the streets are asking where's article 12-2C relating to the oil not being published yet because the moment they show that to us they're going to release the new rate. It's like they're still holding it back on purpose.
This Is an Engineered Collapse! - Who’s REALLY Pulling the Strings? | Gregory Mannarino
Liberty and Finance: 4-27-2025
Trading coach Gregory Mannarino delivers a sobering critique of market manipulation, government incoherence, and the deep control exerted by global elites.
He argues that President Trump’s economic messaging and policy reversals—particularly around tariffs and interest rates—are driven by stock market pressures and orchestrated by unseen powers.
Mannarino warns of a systemic collapse fueled by debt, suppressed interest rates, and a looming shift to centralized digital control, while urging viewers to hold real assets like gold and silver.
He paints the current system as a deliberate “wrecking machine” targeting the middle class and small businesses in order to usher in a new order.
Despite the grim outlook, he calls for unity, spiritual reconnection, and grassroots resistance as paths to reclaiming individual sovereignty and truth.

B️REAKING: XRP ETF APPROVED, BUT IT’S NOT SPOT ETF
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved the first-ever XRP futures ETF, launched by ProShares. This ETF is expected to go live on April 30th, 2025. While it’s not a spot ETF — which tracks the actual price of XRP — it’s still a huge step forward for XRP’s recognition on Wall Street.
Good Morning Dinar Recaps,
B️REAKING: XRP ETF APPROVED, BUT IT’S NOT SPOT ETF
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has approved the first-ever XRP futures ETF, launched by ProShares. This ETF is expected to go live on April 30th, 2025. While it’s not a spot ETF — which tracks the actual price of XRP — it’s still a huge step forward for XRP’s recognition on Wall Street.
The ETF approval comes just a few years after Ripple, the company behind XRP, was locked in a long legal battle with the SEC. Now, XRP is moving from courtrooms to trading floors, joining the ranks of Bitcoin and Ethereum, which already have both futures and spot ETFs.
Some investors were unsure at first, asking, “Why futures and not spot?” But futures ETFs are often the first step. This was the path for Bitcoin and Ethereum, and experts believe a spot XRP ETF could be next. Futures trading allows big institutional investors to take positions on XRP, whether the market goes up or down — a common and healthy part of mature financial markets.
Experts called the approval a game-changer, pointing out that this move gives major players a way to legally and securely trade XRP. And the good news doesn’t stop there. In Brazil, the XRP H11 ETF has just launched on the country’s main stock exchange, making it the first XRP-focused ETF in the world. This global momentum suggests XRP is no longer being left behind.
Just a few years ago, XRP was under heavy legal scrutiny. Now, it’s being listed on international exchanges, with regulated investment products opening the door for more adoption.
From being targeted by regulators to becoming a favorite of institutional investors — XRP is clearly turning the page.

FROM SWIFT TO SHANGHAI: BRICS JUST SEIZED GLOBAL SETTLEMENT POWER WITH DIGITAL GOLD | ANDY SCHECTMAN
Andy outlines that BRICS just flipped the global financial system on its head. China’s digital RMB settlement system is now fully connected to 38% of global trade, allowing transactions to bypass SWIFT and the U.S. dollar entirely. Even more shocking—this new payment network is being expanded to non-member countries, quietly replacing the old financial order with a gold-linked system.
