8. Midstream: Public/Consortium BlockchainsStablecoins rely on blockchain for issuance, public chains profit from transaction fees.Public chains like Ethereum, Solana, TRON earn a share of revenue from stablecoin transactions as users pay miner fees.Commercial Barrier: Current regulations can mandate issuers to use specific public chains, making their position unstable.Stablecoins can be issued across multiple chains. On Binance, USDT can be received via Ethereum, Solana, or BNB. Different chains have different addresses, and once stablecoins are deposited, their chain origin is irrelevant. However, withdrawals require chain selection, intensifying competition among chains.Ethereum, though slower technically, is highly recognized in Western markets;Solana is faster and more popular in Asia. Future regulation of public chains will target issuers indirectly rather than the chains themselves. For example, Hong Kong may require stablecoin issuers to use specific chains for compliance.Public Chain Adoption: Regional preferences already exist. Western users favor Ethereum, while Asian and African users prefer Solana.Exchanges face low technical barriers and cheap fees for chain integration, enabling widespread use. Public chains will become a battleground for sovereign competition.$Coinbase(COIN.US) $Robinhood(HOOD.US) $Circle(CRCL.US) $Digital currency concept(CP00079.US)

$BitMine Immersion Tech(BMNR.US) Tom Lee highlighted at Paris Blockchain Week 2026 that Ethereum is the world&#39;s best-performing asset since the Middle East crisis, with over $17 billion in RWAs tokenized on ETH mainnet, $8 billion in U.S. Treasuries alone, and more than $175 billion in stablecoins settled.Spot Ethereum ETFs have recorded consecutive net inflows, with May 6 seeing $11.57 million added, including $2.1 million from BlackRock clients, and total ETH ETF assets reaching approximately $14.01 billion.@Bridge Buzz SG

$BitMine Immersion Tech(BMNR.US)&#39;s holding Ethereum rose approximately 3.2% over the past 24 hours, demonstrating resilience despite the Ethereum Foundation selling around $23 million worth of ETH. For the second consecutive week, the network absorbed the foundation’s selling pressure with ease, holding firm on price gains.Short sellers betting against ETH faced significant losses, with bears losing roughly $8.2 million in the past day: about 6.7x more than those positioned for price increases. Overall market positioning remained balanced with a long/short ratio of 0.94, indicating the market is digesting the increased supply without notable stress.Trading activity also picked up, as roughly $12 million more ETH flowed into exchanges than left them over the past 24 hours. This net inflow reflects growing interest and participation as the network continues to attract new users.@Bridge Buzz SG

$BitMine Immersion Tech(BMNR.US) A wallet containing 10,000 ETH moved its entire holding on Tuesday for the first time since 2015, when the tokens were purchased for $3,100. Analysts believe the transfer likely represents a custody change rather than a sale, as the move occurred below Ethereum&#39;s peak prices.@Bridge Buzz SG

$ETH/USD(ETHUSD.HAS)ETH/USD: Is This Bull Run Sustainable or a Liquidity Trap? 🚀Ethereum is flashing strong bullish momentum but hitting a critical junction. Here is a deep dive into the lower time frame 1H and 15m charts paired with the current macro landscape.🔷Technical Snapshots 💚Momentum Surge: On the 1H chart, ETH has cleared the $2,400 psychological barrier with a massive volume delta of 89.18%, signaling aggressive buyer dominance.💚Overbought Signals: The RSI on both lower timeframes is hovering near 77, well into overbought territory. While this shows strength, the 15m chart suggests a localised cooling period as the price consolidates near $2,419.💚Support &amp; Resistance: Immediate support has shifted to $2,367. If ETH holds this level during a retest, the next liquidity target sits at $2,500.🔷Fundamental Snapshots Positive sentiment continues to build around upcoming network scalability improvements that are driving institutional interest.💚ETF Speculation: Ongoing chatter regarding a spot Ethereum ETF keeps the “buy the rumor” narrative alive that providing a floor for price action.💚Macro Backdrop: A stabilising DXY (Dollar Index) is allowing risk assets like ETH to breathe, though any hawkish Fed signals remain a tail-risk.🔷The Verdict Bullish but Cautious. The massive buy-side volume confirms the trend is up but the overextended RSI warns against “FOMO” entries at current levels.Look for a healthy pullback to the $2,360 - $2,380 zone to de-risk. A sustained break above $2,425 opens the doors to $2,500+. Not financial advice. Stay sharp! Do your DD. Risk management .
