Sonic Labs Expands to U.S. with ETFs, PIPEs, and New York Office

Sonic Labs Expands to U.S. with ETFs, PIPEs, and New York Office

The post Sonic Labs Expands to U.S. with ETFs, PIPEs, and New York Office appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Sonic Labs has just approved its plan to expand into the US market, including establishing Sonic USA LLC and opening a New York office. Additionally, it will roll out TradFi-related products such as ETFs and PIPEs. This move promises to unlock institutional capital access for $S, while raising the challenge of balancing short-term dilution with long-term deflationary potential. A Strategic Boost for S Token? The Sonic Labs community voted in favor of the “US Market Expansion and TradFi Adoption Plan.” The proposal enables the project to establish a US legal entity named Sonic USA LLC, hire a CEO and a local team, and open a New York office. Additionally, it will apply a performance-based compensation scheme. The proposal also outlines a long-term deflationary mechanism through gas fees to offset supply growth as the network activates its expansion plans. A key technical highlight of the resolution package is the adjustment of network parameters to issue tokens for two potential options: First, a $50 million allocation for managed ETF/ETP structures, $100 million for a Nasdaq PIPE program, and $150 million S tokens (formerly FTM) designated to fund Sonic USA. Alternatively, rejecting all of the above adjustments. The community has approved option 1. Source: Sonic On the institutional demand side, the ETF/ETP allocation could create a compliant access channel for traditional investors. Additionally, it would standardize custody, enhance transparency of holdings, and streamline the creation/redemption process. Meanwhile, the Nasdaq PIPE serves as a strategic “capital reserve,” allowing Sonic to interact with public markets more controlledly. This aligns with its long-term objective of positioning S closer to the standards of institutionally held assets. On the supply side, the gas fee deflationary mechanism is crucial. If transaction activity grows alongside ecosystem expansion, burned fees could absorb part of the supply pressure from issuance. Additionally, locked…

Long-Inactive Bitcoin Whale Sells BTC and Buys Large Volumes of Ethereum! Here Are the Details

Long-Inactive Bitcoin Whale Sells BTC and Buys Large Volumes of Ethereum! Here Are the Details

The post Long-Inactive Bitcoin Whale Sells BTC and Buys Large Volumes of Ethereum! Here Are the Details appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. According to data shared by on-chain analysis platform Lookonchain, a “Bitcoin whale” that has been inactive in the market for a long time has made a remarkable transaction again. Bitcoin Whale Makes Huge Move: Sold 2,000 BTC and Bought 48,942 ETH The whale in question sold 2,000 Bitcoins (approximately $215 million) and purchased 48,942 Ethereum (ETH) for the same value in the last four hours. According to the data, this investor stands out not only with his recent moves but also with his long-standing strategic acquisitions. The whale has reportedly accumulated a total of 886,400 ETH to date, reaching a market capitalization of $4.07 billion. This amount is among the highest wallet balances among individual investors in the Ethereum ecosystem. Whale activity in cryptocurrency markets is considered a key indicator of price direction. Experts believe this whale’s accelerated Bitcoin sales and shift to Ethereum indicate that ETH is becoming increasingly prominent in investment strategies. In particular, increasing institutional interest in spot ETH ETFs and record increases in transaction volume on the network may be the reason for this preference. Market analysts say that purchases of this scale could provide support to the Ethereum price in the medium term, but could also increase selling pressure on Bitcoin. The new moves the whale will make in the coming days are among the main developments that investors will closely follow. *This is not investment advice.

Zhitong Technology Innovation: Taiwan's first "MicroStrategy-like" company has been established. Can the dual engines of Bitcoin and emerging market finance lead to explosive growth?

Zhitong Technology Innovation: Taiwan's first "MicroStrategy-like" company has been established. Can the dual engines of Bitcoin and emerging market finance lead to explosive growth?

A board resolution that shook Taiwan's capital market On August 8, 2025, the board of directors of Zhitong Technology Co., Ltd. (Taiwan Stock Code: 8932) sent shockwaves through the Taiwanese capital market. The resolution adopted two striking decisions: first, becoming the first listed company in Taiwan to adopt a Bitcoin reserve strategy; second, acquiring the entire equity stake in Letul Investments to obtain an Indian non-banking financial company (NBFC) license. This move not only rocked the Taipei stock market but also prompted the regional capital market to rethink the viable path of "digital assets + cross-border finance." These two decisions made Chitung the first publicly listed company in Taiwan to publicly adopt a "Bitcoin reserve strategy," extending its operations into one of the world's most promising and complex emerging markets. This wasn't a desperate struggle amidst financial difficulties; rather, it was a proactive move by the company at its peak. Prior to announcing this major transformation, Zhitong Technology was in exceptionally strong shape. A review of its financial statements for the first half of 2025 reveals a 64% gross profit margin and a 50% operating profit margin, demonstrating its strong profitability and market competitiveness. More importantly, the company maintains ample cash and cash equivalents, maintaining a healthy balance sheet and providing the capital backing for strategic expansion. Its strong stock price performance over the past few years also reflects the capital market's strong recognition of its established business. Revenue performance Cumulative revenue growth rate exceeds 60% in the first half of 2025 Profitability Gross profit margin is approximately 64.70%, and operating profit margin is approximately 50.25%. Earnings per share (EPS) It will reach 0.96 yuan in the second quarter of 2025, setting a new high Cash Position The cash and cash equivalents balance at the end of the period was nearly NT$900 million Market performance The stock price has increased by more than 30% in the past year and more than 600% in the past three years. Current market value Approximately NT$34.1 billion *The data in the table is as of August 2025. Some data may change due to stock prices or financial report updates. Dual Engine Launch: Bitcoin Reserves and Cross-Border Finance Zhitong's transformation plan is driven by two seemingly independent but intrinsically linked engines: one targeting Bitcoin, the digital world's store of value, and the other addressing the financial needs of emerging markets. Join hands with SORA to join Bitcoin asset layout From left to right: Paul Lee (co-CEO of BITPLANET), Eric Trump (Trump's second son), Mr. Tsai (General Manager of Zhitong Technology), Jason Fang (AsiaStrategy) SORA, together with Zhitong and BITPLANET, discussed the future of Bitcoin reserves with Trump's second son (Eric Trump) at Bitcoin Asia. Rather than rushing directly into the cryptocurrency market to purchase Bitcoin as expected, Zhitong chose a more circuitous approach. The company announced its subscription to a $2 million, three-year convertible bond (CB) issued by Nasdaq-listed Top Win International Limited (now AsiaStrategy, trading symbol: SORA). The choice of this financial instrument is inherently strategic: convertible bonds combine the principal preservation of bonds with the appreciation potential of stocks. If SORA's stock price rises, Zhitong can convert it into equity and enjoy capital gains. If the performance does not meet expectations, Zhitong can still demand repayment of principal and interest as a creditor, providing a safe space for forward-looking investment. SORA's strategic partner is also the well-known Web3 investment fund Sora Ventures. The company was formerly known as Top Win and recently changed its name to "AsiaStrategy". Its goal is to become the Asian version of "Strategy", focusing on promoting the Bitcoin reserve strategies of Asian listed companies. SORA has established partnerships with Metaplanet, a well-known Bitcoin-holding listed company in Japan, and with local financial groups in South Korea, accumulating valuable practical experience in assisting companies with Bitcoin-related compliance, accounting standards, and regulatory responses. According to a Zhitong insider, this partnership has two objectives: on a capital level, through SORA's professional operations, it will indirectly participate in the upward price potential of Bitcoin; on a strategic level, more importantly, it will "learn from the master" and leverage SORA's compliance, accounting standards, and international network resources in Japan, Hong Kong, South Korea, and other places to help Zhitong accelerate the implementation of its own Bitcoin and digital asset business in the future. Obtained Indian NBFC financial license While developing its digital assets, Zhitong has also set its sights on South Asia. The company announced the full acquisition of New Delhi-based Letul Investments Private Limited, whose core asset is a non-banking financial company (NBFC) license issued by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). This license serves as Zhitong's entry ticket and passport into the Indian market. Holding an NBFC license means Zhitong is legally permitted to engage in lending, payments, and other digital financial services in India. Compared to applying from scratch, directly acquiring a licensed company is undoubtedly the fastest and most efficient way to enter this highly regulated market. This move is more than just a financial investment; it is crucial for Zhitong to establish a physical presence overseas and acquire key financial assets, marking the beginning of its "cross-border finance" business. Why did Zhitong choose Bitcoin at this moment? The Zhitong board of directors told Dongqu why they chose Bitcoin for indirect investment, primarily due to in-depth research into global macroeconomic trends and Bitcoin asset characteristics. Before making the investment decision, our board of directors and research team conducted in-depth research on Bitcoin. Historically, Bitcoin has experienced four halving cycles since 2009, with a consistently upward price trend in the medium and long term. In the current macroeconomic environment, with global monetary easing and fiat currency devaluation, Bitcoin's advantages of scarcity and decentralization are becoming increasingly prominent. After the US Bitcoin ETF was passed, more and more institutional investors viewed Bitcoin as a strategic reserve asset, completely opening up its acceptance in the capital market. Zhitong has conducted in-depth research on Bitcoin over the years. Regarding the future trend of Bitcoin, the Zhitong board of directors initially revealed its research observations and predictions: Short-term (within 1 year): Prices will remain highly volatile, but market acceptance and ETF inflows will continue to support demand. Medium-term (1–3 years): If the macro environment maintains its current trend, we believe Bitcoin is still likely to break through its previous high; Long term (3-5 years and above): Bitcoin may become "digital gold" and its market value potential still has room to increase several times. Based on the research conclusions, Zhitong decided to adopt a "long-term holding + capital leverage strategy" rather than short-term speculation. Zhitong's views are gaining increasing recognition among global institutional investors. Since the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved Bitcoin spot ETFs in early 2024, an unprecedented influx of traditional capital has poured into the Bitcoin market. Bitcoin ETFs, primarily issued by giants like BlackRock and Fidelity, have continued to see significant net inflows, demonstrating that institutions are shifting their focus on Bitcoin from a speculative asset to a strategic reserve that can be incorporated into long-term asset allocation. Research reports from institutions like Fidelity and ARK Invest have repeatedly demonstrated that including Bitcoin as part of an investment portfolio can help improve long-term returns and diversify risk. Smart decision-making is also based on this global paradigm shift. The birth of Taiwan’s “MicroStrategy Effect” Zhitong's strategy is clearly inspired by the US-listed company MicroStrategy. Since 2020, MicroStrategy has been converting a large amount of cash on its balance sheet into Bitcoin, setting a precedent for a public company holding Bitcoin reserves. As a result, its stock price has been highly correlated with the price of Bitcoin, making it a leveraged proxy for Bitcoin investment in the capital market. This model creates a positive "flywheel effect": the rise in Bitcoin prices pushes up the company's stock price, and the company can use the higher stock price to raise more funds through additional issuance or convertible bonds, and then use these funds to purchase more Bitcoin, further increasing the Bitcoin content per share, thereby attracting more investors who are optimistic about Bitcoin. Through its partnership with SORA, Zhitong intends to replicate this new corporate finance and capital operation model in Taiwan, aiming to establish itself as a complex investment target integrating software business and digital asset value. Strategy Comparison: Differences between Zhitong and Dafeng Electric Paths In Taiwan, Zhitong isn't the only publicly listed company to embrace Bitcoin. Cable TV operator Tatung Electric (6184) also announced earlier that it would directly purchase Bitcoin as a long-term reserve asset, sending its stock price soaring to the upper limit and sparking heated market discussion. However, the strategic choices made by Zhitong and Tatung Electric reflect two distinct risk management philosophies. While Dafeng Electric's "direct cryptocurrency purchase" strategy is simple and straightforward, it also exposes it to Taiwan's currently unclear regulatory and accounting rules. According to the "Guidelines for Accounting for Cryptocurrency Transactions" published by the Taiwan Accounting Research and Development Foundation at the end of 2022, these guidelines primarily adhere to current International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). However, they do not provide clear "fair value accounting" guidance for listed companies, as in the new US FASB rules. This means that Dafeng Electric may need to list Bitcoin as an "intangible asset" and must recognize an impairment loss when the price of Bitcoin falls, eroding profits; but when the price of Bitcoin rises, the unrealized gains cannot be reflected in the income statement until they are sold. Zhitong’s management understood this and chose an indirect approach by investing in SORA’s convertible bonds, allowing the company to enjoy the potential appreciation of Bitcoin while avoiding the gray areas of domestic accounting standards. Dual-Engine Transformation: Mining Gold in the Fintech Blue Ocean If the Bitcoin strategy is about strengthening the company’s balance sheet, the Indian fintech business is about building a strong cash flow engine. Zhitong chose India as its first international expansion destination due to its enormous market potential. With a population of 1.4 billion and a large number of young people proficient in digital technology, India provides fertile ground for the popularization of financial technology. According to a report by market research firm Mordor Intelligence, the size of India's fintech market is expected to grow from US$44.12 billion in 2025 to US$95.3 billion in 2030, at a compound annual growth rate of 16.65%. Digital infrastructure promoted by the Indian government, such as the Unified Payments Interface (UPI) and the Aadhaar biometric identification system, has significantly increased access to financial services. However, the credit gap for micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) remains significant, estimated at $360 billion. This presents a vast opportunity for fintech companies offering services such as microfinance and supply chain finance. Zhitong has obtained the NBFC license and has seized an excellent starting point for sailing on this golden channel. The synergy of the two engines Looking at Zhitong’s Bitcoin strategy and Indian fintech business, they are by no means two parallel lines. We can speculate on a closed-loop business model that can empower each other. First , India's fintech business can be positioned as a stable cash flow generator. In this high-growth market, profits generated through payment and microfinance businesses can provide the entire group with sustained and healthy operating cash flow. These cash flows can not only support the company's daily operations, but can also be used to repay the financing costs incurred to acquire Bitcoin assets (such as interest on SORA convertible bonds), and can even directly increase Bitcoin holdings to achieve asset accumulation without relying on equity dilution. Secondly , a Bitcoin reserve strategy is a powerful balance sheet amplifier. Assuming the value of the Bitcoin reserve increases, the company's total assets will increase significantly, and its net worth will also rise accordingly. A balance sheet with the potential for growth means a company may have a higher credit rating and greater financing capabilities. The appreciated Bitcoin can become a high-quality collateral, obtaining lower-cost funds from the international market, and then investing these funds in India's credit business that requires a lot of capital support to accelerate the expansion of market share. This is a very good corresponding double leverage. The successful operation of the Indian business provides funds for the Bitcoin reserves, and the appreciation of the Bitcoin reserves provides leverage for the expansion of the Indian business. The Zhitong board of directors and Dongqu explained that they plan to deeply integrate the two in the future, leveraging their NBFC licenses to explore innovative financial services in India, such as crypto asset mortgages, cross-border payments and settlements based on stablecoins, and Web3 wallet integration, to drive the company's long-term value growth. Summary: Taiwan’s FinTech leaders, who’s following suit? This major transformation by Zhitong Technology has brought fresh ideas to the conservative Taiwanese capital market. This isn't just a case study of a multinational company; it's an experiment within Taiwan's capital market. While many companies in the US are already charging forward under the orange banner of Bitcoin, Taiwan is also joining the fray, testing the potential of integrating traditional stock market funds with cutting-edge digital finance and virtual digital assets. Is Zhitong a unique leader, or the first in a wave of "bitcoinization" of Taiwanese corporate assets? Faced with slowing growth in their core businesses, will Taiwan's numerous cash-rich tech companies follow this new model? Adding Bitcoin to their balance sheets, or indirectly, to their portfolios, is this a way to find new sources of value growth?

Bitcoin’s $108K Juncture: A Crucial Test for Its Next Trend

Bitcoin’s $108K Juncture: A Crucial Test for Its Next Trend

BitcoinWorld Bitcoin’s $108K Juncture: A Crucial Test for Its Next Trend The cryptocurrency world is buzzing with anticipation as Bitcoin’s $108K juncture emerges as a pivotal point for its future. Will the bull run continue, or are we on the brink of a significant reversal? This critical price level has captured the attention of analysts, signaling a make-or-break moment for the digital asset. Investors are keenly watching, understanding that the decisions made in the coming weeks could shape Bitcoin’s trajectory for the foreseeable future. What Makes Bitcoin’s $108K Juncture So Significant? According to a recent market report from the respected crypto analytics firm 10x Research, Bitcoin trading around the $108,000 mark is far more than just another price point. It represents a critical juncture that could define its trajectory for months to come. The firm highlighted that the price action over the next two weeks will be decisive, setting the stage for either continued growth or a bearish shift. This isn’t merely a speculative claim; it’s based on observable market behaviors. Several key factors contribute to this heightened tension and underscore the importance of Bitcoin’s $108K juncture: Long-Term Holder Distribution: Analysts observe that long-term holders are beginning to distribute their supply. Historically, this can signal a potential peak or a shift in market sentiment as seasoned investors take profits. ETF Inflows Stagnation: Inflows into Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are showing signs of stagnation. This suggests a slowdown in the fresh institutional demand that often fuels significant price rallies. A lack of new capital from these major players can dampen upward momentum. Rising Volatility: Market volatility appears to be on the rise, making price movements more unpredictable and increasing the risk for short-term traders. Increased volatility often precedes significant price swings, in either direction. External Pressures and Market Risks at Play Beyond internal market mechanics, external macroeconomic factors are also poised to significantly influence Bitcoin’s $108K juncture. The upcoming U.S. labor market data and the Federal Reserve’s interest rate decision, specifically on September 17, are major events on the global economic calendar. These announcements have a track record of impacting traditional financial markets, and by extension, the cryptocurrency space. These decisions could introduce substantial volatility into the market. For instance, an unexpected hawkish stance from the Fed or concerning labor data could trigger a broader risk-off sentiment, leading investors to pull back from riskier assets like Bitcoin. Conversely, a more dovish outlook could provide a much-needed boost. A persistent lack of new capital inflows remains a critical risk factor, potentially hindering any upward momentum Bitcoin might otherwise generate. Therefore, investors are closely watching these macroeconomic developments, understanding their potential to act as powerful catalysts. Are Technicals and On-Chain Data Offering Clarity for Bitcoin’s $108K Juncture? Interestingly, 10x Research also pointed out that major on-chain support levels and traditional technical indicators are not providing a clear directional bias at this moment. This lack of a definitive signal from typically reliable metrics adds another layer of complexity to the current market situation. Usually, strong support or resistance levels can offer clues about future price movements, but their ambiguity now suggests profound market indecision. As a result, the firm concluded that the risk associated with Bitcoin investing is higher than ever. This period will undoubtedly serve as a crucial test, distinguishing professional investors who possess the experience and analytical tools to navigate uncertainty from amateur investors who might struggle with the elevated risk. Understanding these nuances is absolutely essential for making informed decisions during this period of heightened uncertainty and potential market shifts. Navigating the Uncertainty: Actionable Insights for Investors Given the high stakes at Bitcoin’s $108K juncture, investors should consider adopting a strategic and disciplined approach. This is not a time for impulsive decisions, but rather for careful planning and execution. Here are some actionable insights to help navigate the current market landscape: Prioritize Robust Risk Management: Always invest only what you can comfortably afford to lose. Volatility demands careful position sizing and the setting of clear stop-loss orders to protect capital. Stay Diligently Informed: Keep a close eye on macroeconomic data, especially the upcoming Fed decisions and labor reports. These external factors can often override internal crypto market dynamics. Analyze Market Flow and On-Chain Metrics: Continuously monitor ETF inflows and on-chain metrics for any significant shifts in long-term holder behavior or new institutional interest. These indicators can provide early warnings or confirm trends. Cultivate Emotional Discipline: In times of high uncertainty and rapid price swings, emotional trading can lead to poor outcomes. Stick rigorously to a well-researched investment plan and avoid making snap decisions based on fear or greed. This period isn’t just a challenge; it’s an opportunity for experienced investors to demonstrate their resilience, analytical prowess, and disciplined approach to market fluctuations. Successfully navigating this critical phase could yield significant lessons and potential rewards. The current situation with Bitcoin’s $108K juncture truly represents a pivotal moment for the cryptocurrency. With market fundamentals shifting, external economic pressures mounting, and technical indicators offering no clear path, the next few weeks will be critical. This period will undoubtedly test the resolve and analytical skills of every investor, underscoring the importance of informed, strategic decision-making in a volatile market. As the market stands at this crossroads, only time will tell which path Bitcoin ultimately takes. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) 1. What makes $108K a critical level for Bitcoin? According to 10x Research, Bitcoin trading around $108,000 is a critical juncture because the price action over the next two weeks could decisively determine whether its bull run continues or a bearish reversal begins, influenced by several market and macroeconomic factors. 2. How do macroeconomic factors like Fed decisions impact Bitcoin’s price? Major macroeconomic events, such as U.S. labor market data and Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, can introduce significant volatility. They influence broader market sentiment, potentially causing investors to shift capital between risk-on assets like Bitcoin and safer havens. 3. What does “long-term holder distribution” mean for Bitcoin? Long-term holder distribution refers to seasoned investors, who typically hold Bitcoin for extended periods, beginning to sell off their assets. This can signal a potential market top or a shift in sentiment as these experienced participants take profits, potentially increasing selling pressure. 4. What actionable steps can investors take during this uncertain period? Investors should prioritize robust risk management, stay diligently informed about market and macroeconomic news, analyze market flow and on-chain metrics, and cultivate emotional discipline to avoid impulsive trading decisions. 5. Is this a good time to buy or sell Bitcoin? The current market conditions are characterized by high risk and uncertainty, with no clear directional bias from technical indicators. Therefore, investment decisions should be based on individual risk tolerance, thorough personal research, and potentially consultation with a financial advisor, rather than on general recommendations.

Key Points: 0xsun.sol observes fluctuations in strategy performance amid Solana strength. Recent altcoin price volatility impacts trading strategy. ETH leads in institutional investments, posing interest challenges. Crypto KOL 0xsun.sol shared a successful ‘Long ETH, Short Shitcoins’ strategy on social media, highlighting recent drawdowns due to Solana’s strength, impacting profitability. This strategy’s significance lies in its adaptation to market volatility, underscoring the need for liquidity and iconic events to sustain profitability amidst altcoin sector shifts. Solana Surges, Disrupting Ethereum-Dominant Strategies 0xsun.sol recently highlighted a shift in the crypto market that altered the successful trajectory of their strategy. Rising strength in Solana led to reduced gains within the “Long ETH, Short Shitcoins” approach. Volatility-adjusted, SOL temporarily assumed an influential position, disrupting Ethereum’s dominance. Reflecting on this, 0xsun.sol shared, “Overall, this strategy has been very successful, especially in the face of market volatility. In the last few days of August, due to SOL’s sudden strength, which led the altcoins, the strategy’s profits experienced some drawdown.” Immediate market adjustments include recognizing the strategic significance of emerging altcoin growth, notably SOL’s price movements. This could recalibrate relative momentum trades between ETH and smaller tokens, altering expected investor returns.

5 Charts That Could Predict Ethereum Next Big Move as Rate Cuts Approach

5 Charts That Could Predict Ethereum Next Big Move as Rate Cuts Approach

The post 5 Charts That Could Predict Ethereum Next Big Move as Rate Cuts Approach appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Ethereum’s price has dropped to $4,200, following an all-time high of nearly $5,000. Stablecoin supply and DeFi deposits are at multi-month lows. Analysts suggest that potential rate cuts in September could spark a resurgence in liquidity. The price of Ethereum has recently come under pressure, dipping to $4,200 just days after reaching an all-time high of nearly $5,000. This price drop can be explained by recent on-chain data, which reveals a divergence in market behavior. Liquidity metrics such as stablecoin supply and DeFi deposits have fallen to multi-month lows. Meanwhile, adoption indicators, including active addresses and transactions, are at record highs.  This suggests that Ethereum may be shifting from a yield-driven market to a utility-led ecosystem, with potential rate cuts in September possibly acting as a catalyst for the next price breakout. Stablecoin on Ethereum Drops 34.27M ETH  The dollar market capitalization of stablecoins on the Ethereum network is currently $149.58 billion, representing an all-time high valuation, according to DeFiLlama However, when measured in ETH terms, today’s volume stands at 34.27 million ETH tokens, a low figure compared to the 80.24 million ETH seen in April. Stablecoins serve as the primary liquidity base for crypto trading, and a contraction in their supply often signals that investors are withdrawing capital from the ecosystem. The current divergence between the all-time high in the dollar value of stablecoins on Ethereum and the lower ETH volume can be explained by the high price of ETH tokens. A higher ETH price means the dollar value of stablecoins will be higher relative to the quantity of tokens.
