Odaily News JPMorgan Chase CFO Jeremy Barnum stated during the company's fourth-quarter earnings call that while JPMorgan supports blockchain technology and financial innovation, it holds clear reservations about the design of certain yield-bearing stablecoins. He believes they could replicate traditional banking functions without corresponding prudent regulation, potentially forming a "dangerous and undesirable parallel banking system."

Barnum pointed out that the bank's position aligns with the regulatory intent set by the GENIUS Act, which is to establish clear boundaries for stablecoin issuance. He emphasized that if stablecoins possess features similar to "interest-bearing deposits" but do not bear the capital, risk management, and compliance requirements gradually developed over centuries of banking regulation, they would pose risks to the existing regulated financial system. Although JPMorgan welcomes competition and innovation, it does not support "shadow-like" banking structures that circumvent established regulatory frameworks.

At the legislative level, the "yield" issue of stablecoins has become one of the core points of contention in the U.S. Congress's deliberation of the Digital Asset Market Clarity Act. The latest revised draft indicates that lawmakers tend to prohibit digital asset service providers from paying interest or yields to users solely for holding stablecoins, to prevent their function from being equivalent to bank deposits. Meanwhile, the draft still preserves space for incentive mechanisms related to network activities such as liquidity provision, governance participation, and staking. (Cointelegraph)

Odaily News U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, the senior Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee, has called for a pause on the application for a U.S. national trust bank charter related to World Liberty Trust Co. until Donald Trump divests his family's holdings in the related digital asset business.

According to reports, Warren has sent a letter to Jonathan Gould, Acting Comptroller of the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, requesting a delay in the application process while Trump still holds the related interests. She pointed out that if the application is approved, rules established by regulators could directly impact the profitability of the President's related enterprises, constituting a serious conflict of interest.

Warren stated that Congress failed to address such issues when passing the GENIUS Act, therefore the Senate has a responsibility to confront these conflicts when considering crypto market structure legislation. Currently, the Senate Banking Committee is about to hold hearings on the relevant bill, but the latest leaked draft has not yet incorporated the government ethics provisions previously demanded by Democrats.

Odaily News According to data from on-chain tracking platform Lookonchain, the cumulative trading volume of Bitget's tokenized stocks has reached $1 billion. Notably, the single-month trading volume for December 2025 already accounts for 89.1% of Ondo's global market share.

Odaily News Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan posted on X platform, stating that if ETF demand persists long-term, BTC's price will enter a parabolic growth phase. Using the 65% price increase of gold in 2025 as an example, Matt Hougan pointed out that both gold and BTC prices are determined by supply and demand dynamics.

After the U.S. confiscated Russian sovereign bond deposits in 2022, annual gold purchases by central banks increased from about 500 tons to about 1000 tons and have remained stable since. This demand altered the supply-demand balance but was not immediately reflected in the price. Gold prices rose 2% in 2022, 13% in 2023, and 27% in 2024, only entering parabolic growth in 2025. This is because demand in the earlier years was met by holders willing to sell gold. When sellers' selling pressure was exhausted and demand persisted, prices subsequently surged significantly.

A similar situation currently exists with BTC and ETFs. Since their debut in January 2024, ETF purchases have exceeded 100% of BTC's new supply. Because existing holders are willing to sell, the price has not yet entered a parabolic phase. If ETF demand continues, the selling pressure from existing sellers will eventually be exhausted.

Odaily News Berachain has released its 2025 year-end summary, detailing annual progress and outlining plans for 2026. Data shows that over 25 million BERA were staked for Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL) throughout the year, with over $30 million in PoL revenue distributed to BGT/BERA holders. PoL-supported TVL exceeded $250 million, and the on-chain stablecoin scale surpassed $100 million. The team emphasized a shift towards reducing reliance on market sentiment and third parties, with the core objective being the long-term enhancement of BERA's value.

Strategically, Berachain introduced "Bera Builds Businesses," aiming to focus on 3-5 high-certainty applications through internal incubation, mergers & acquisitions, or deep partnerships. This initiative, combined with PoL incentives and product/engineering resources, is designed to directly generate demand for BERA and HONEY. Goals include achieving emission neutrality, protocol profitability, and utilizing profits for reinvestment or buybacks. Recent progress includes the launch of the native money market BEND, HONEY collateral's contribution to annualized revenue, listings of ecosystem projects on multiple exchanges, and full recovery of user funds.

The team also disclosed challenges: price and sentiment pressure, attrition of some projects, adjustments in marketing focus, and the departure of certain core members. Looking ahead to 2026, Berachain will prioritize partners with genuine revenue streams and non-pure-crypto dependencies to drive network effects and value recirculation.
