Lending

Lending protocols form the backbone of the decentralized money market, allowing users to lend or borrow digital assets without intermediaries. Using smart contracts, platforms like Aave and Morpho automate interest rates based on supply and demand while requiring over-collateralization for security. The 2026 lending landscape features advanced permissionless vaults and institutional-grade credit lines. This tag covers the evolution of capital efficiency, liquidations, and the integration of diverse collateral types, including LSTs and tokenized RWAs.

Paxos acquisition reshapes institutional DeFi access

Paxos acquisition reshapes institutional DeFi access

The post Paxos acquisition reshapes institutional DeFi access appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Major institutions are increasingly looking beyond trading into decentralized finance, and the latest Paxos acquisition underlines how fast that shift is accelerating. Why did Paxos move on Fordefi now? Paxos, a veteran stablecoin and blockchain infrastructure provider, announced on Tuesday that it will acquire New York-based wallet startup Fordefi for more than $100 million. A Paxos spokesperson confirmed the price range but declined to share specific deal terms, underscoring how strategically sensitive the transaction is. The company, founded in 2012, already powers crypto services for large partners such as PayPal and Nubank. Moreover, Paxos issues PayPal’s dollar-pegged stablecoin, which has a market capitalization of more than $3.6 billion, cementing its position as a key stablecoin issuer in the U.S. market. The purchase of Fordefi, which specializes in crypto wallets engineered specifically for DeFi activity, shows that Paxos customers are increasingly demanding access to decentralized protocols. However, many of these institutions still require institutional-grade custody and compliance tooling before they commit more capital on-chain. How does this deal fit into DeFi’s institutionalization? Decentralized finance has long been viewed as one of the riskiest corners of the crypto ecosystem. Users can earn high yields through decentralized lending networks or liquidity pools. That said, these same protocols remain frequent targets for hacks and smart contract exploits, which has historically deterred risk-averse institutions. Over the past year, large corporations have nonetheless begun to experiment more seriously with DeFi rails. In September, U.S. exchange Coinbase launched a feature allowing customers to borrow funds via the DeFi lending protocol Morpho. Moreover, traditional banks have started to tokenize money-market funds, placing them in blockchain-based wrappers that many see as a first step toward deeper institutional participation in decentralized finance. “We certainly hear it all the time,” Paxos cofounder and CEO Charles Cascarilla told Fortune, referring to clients…

Kevin Hassett Emerges as Trump’s Top Pick For Fed Chair

Kevin Hassett Emerges as Trump’s Top Pick For Fed Chair

The post Kevin Hassett Emerges as Trump’s Top Pick For Fed Chair appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kevin Hassett has emerged as the top candidate to be the next chairman of the United States Federal Reserve. The trend is an indication of a potential change in the direction of the central bank as interest rate policy becomes a significant topic of discussion. Hassett’s Rate-Cut Stance Strengthens His Preference For Fed Chair A Bloomberg report indicates that advisers close to President Donald Trump consider him the candidate of choice. The selection process is now at its final stage. Trump wants a candidate that shares his opinion of wanting more aggressive rate cuts. Hassett is regarded as a person who fits into that standpoint. He earlier indicated that he was already going to cut rates based on existing economic statistics. That open position has intensified anticipations that a shift of leadership would lead the central bank towards more rate cuts. The president has often stated that the Federal Reserve has been too slow in reducing the cost of borrowing. He has expressed his criticism severally against the current chairman Jerome Powell. Therefore, there was no surprise that Trump claimed that he has his decision regarding the choice to replace Powell. The position is very important since the Fed chair directs policies over decisions dealing with inflation, employment and lending, as well as financial markets. Bessent Hints That Fed Chair Announcement Is Near The selection is being overseen by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent. He recently indicated that the announcement would take place before Christmas. Five candidates have now been shortlisted due to the use of interviews. They are Kevin Hassett, a former Fed official Kevin Warsh, current governor Christopher Waller, Vice Chair Supervision Michelle Bowman and BlackRock executive Rick Rieder. Recently, Waller indicated that he is open to more rate cuts in December. The Federal reserve has reduced rates twice…

While it became an internet point-of-contention and debate, the incident underscores how powerful and advanced golf rangefinders have become today. As many companies start of offer discounts and special holiday and end-of-year pricing, the following is a rundown of some of the top brands and models on the market, and those that are generating buzz for their accuracy, tech, innovation and value: Bushnell The ProX3+ model from Bushnell, the most-used rangefinder among professional tour players.

The post The New Frontier of Digital Finance in Italy appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kraken, among the longest-standing and most reliable cryptocurrency platforms in the world, takes a decisive step towards the democratization of digital finance with the launch of the Krak Card. This new debit card, now also available for Italian customers, promises to revolutionize the way digital assets are managed and spent, offering advanced tools to fully embrace decentralized finance. Krak Card: multi-asset payments and cashback in euros or bitcoin The core of Krak Card’s innovation lies in the ability to make payments by simultaneously drawing from various assets, whether they are fiat currencies or cryptocurrencies. Thanks to integration with the global Mastercard network, the card allows spending of over 400 assets supported by the Krak app, turning every digital wallet into immediate purchasing power. One of the most appreciated features is the 1% cashback on all purchases, issued in euros or bitcoin. In Italy, this function translates into a tangible advantage for those who wish to obtain competitive rewards without exchange fees or monthly charges. Users can choose between two aesthetic variants of the card, available in both physical and virtual formats, for total flexibility in daily spending. Maximum Flexibility in Asset Management The Krak Card offers unprecedented control: you can preset the order of asset usage and decide which to exclude from payments. For example, a purchase of 100 euros can be split between cash balance and secondary assets like cryptocurrencies or stablecoins, with instant conversion at the time of the transaction. This system allows you to optimize resources and tailor your spending strategy to your needs. Mark Greenberg, Global Head of Consumer at Kraken, emphasizes that the platform’s vision is to treat every currency as cash, allowing users to use any asset to pay for goods and services, from daily groceries to vacations.
