🚀 Tether just celebrated its 10th birthday with a whopping 350 million users, up 148% from last year! The stablecoin's growth spurt is partly thanks to tighter US regulations and a banking crisis that shook its rival, USDC. Tether's new CEO, Paolo Ardoino, is now BFFs with the FBI, boosting compliance and market share to 70%. But watch out, Europe’s new rules might rain on this parade. Meanwhile, Canary Capital and Bitwise are racing for the first spot XRP ETF, Wirex Pay launched a non-custodial crypto app, and VanEck Ventures is betting $30M on crypto and AI startups. 🌐
