According to CoinDesk, Tether, the company behind the largest stablecoin, is set to introduce its $140 billion USDT token to Bitcoin and the Bitcoin-based scaling service, Lightning Network. This announcement was made at the Plan B conference in San Salvador, where Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino highlighted the initiative's goal to provide practical solutions for remittances, payments, and other financial applications requiring both speed and reliability. Stablecoins, a $200 billion digital asset class, are primarily anchored to external assets like the U.S. dollar. They act as a bridge between traditional government-issued money and blockchain-based digital assets, gaining popularity for everyday uses such as payments, savings, and remittances, particularly in emerging markets. Despite the rapid expansion of stablecoin usage, most activity and supply remain concentrated on smart contract platforms like Ethereum, Tron, and Solana. The integration of USDT with Bitcoin is facilitated by Taproot Assets, an infrastructure component that enables asset issuances on the Bitcoin base layer and transfers over the Lightning Network. This scaling platform focuses on fast and cost-effective transactions, enhancing the efficiency of micropayments. Developed by Lightning Labs and released last year, the protocol paves the way for external tokens like stablecoins to enter the Bitcoin ecosystem. Elizabeth Stark, CEO of Lightning Labs, emphasized that millions of people can now use the most open and secure blockchain to send dollars globally. She noted that bringing USDT to Bitcoin merges Bitcoin's security and decentralization with Lightning's speed and scalability.

Iggy Azalea's feud with Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin stems from his criticism of celebrity-driven crypto projects like her meme coin, MOTHER. While Buterin focuses on blockchain technology's serious use, Iggy promotes her ventures with bold entertainment events, sparking controversy.

Vitalik Buterin donated over $500K in animal-themed meme coins to charity, urging more practical utility for meme coins. Is this a genuine act of altruism or a strategic move to enhance his image while offloading coins?

Pump.fun offers a 0.5 SOL reward to incentivize successful token launches on its platform, which has seen only 1.4% of tokens reach the Raydium DEX. Despite its innovative bonding curve model, the platform's memecoins remain high-risk with a low success rate.

Metallica's official X account was hacked to promote the Solana token METAL, making them the latest victim of celebrity meme coin scams. Rapper 50 Cent and wrestler Hulk Logan also joined the growing list of victims this month.

Brazilian football legend Ronaldinho recently endorsed crypto, claiming it has gone mainstream. However, blockchain detective ZachXBT highlighted Ronaldinho's questionable history in the crypto space.

Andrew Tate's meme coin, Daddy Tate ($DADDY), surged on Solana with his massive online following but faced steep price drops amid controversy and insider trading allegations, posing high risk for investors due to its dependency on Tate's influence and volatile market nature.

Within a week of its launch, Iggy Azalea's MOTHER token achieved a market cap exceeding $200M. However, the recent trend of celeb meme coin releases has drawn criticism from Vitalik Buterin. Will MOTHER’s momentum last?
