Crypto.news - The race for stablecoin supremacy heats up as industry experts debate Tether’s role and new players like PayPal (NASDAQ:PYPL) enter the arena.

Bloomberg Intelligence expert Jamie Coutts pointed to Ethereum’s (ETH) growing dominance, highlighted by key network adoption metrics and layer-2 projects like Optimism, Arbitrum, and Base.

He anticipates that Ethereum’s scaling roadmap will drastically lower layer-2 transaction costs, thanks to the forthcoming EIP-4844. This comes as PayPal recently debuted its PYUSD stablecoin, fueling speculation that it might develop its own layer-2 network.

The biggest new memecoin of 2023, Pepe (PEPE), suffered one of the worst possible fates that can befall a new crypto asset — a partial rug pull after its anonymous developers abruptly sold nearly $16 million worth of the token on Aug. 24.

The official Pepe X (formerly known as Twitter) account explained the drop was due to “three ex-team members” going behind their back and selling the tokens without their knowledge — a move that saw the price of Pepe plummet as much as 26% in the days following, without much respite.

There are hopes that the United States could see a new crypto resurgence after several rulings this year have seen court judges “rein in the SEC,” according to a digital asset lawyer from K&L Gates.

On Aug. 31, Jeremy McLaughlin, a partner at the global law firm, noted that multiple U.S. court cases have stomped on arguments from Securities and Exchange Commission Chair Gary Gensler, who has said that almost all digital assets are securities.

itstamp, a European-based cryptocurrency exchange, announced on Thursday an increase in interest rates for customers lending select cryptocurrencies for a period of 30 days. This promotion, which includes Ripple's XRP, Ether (ETH), Tether (USDT), Litecoin (LTC), and Bitcoin Cash (B*H), is set to run until October 15, 2023.

The rate enhancement enables Bitstamp customers to earn up to 2.5% on XRP deposits and up to 6% on USDT. Interest rates for other cryptocurrencies involved in the promotion vary from 3% to 5%. However, Bitstamp's lending services are exclusively available to clients outside the United States, United Kingdom, Singapore, Japan, and Canada.

The company's lending product, Bitstamp Earn, operates independently from its cryptocurrency trading platform. The firm has forged a partnership with Tesseract, a Finland-regulated entity, for its crypto lending business. Similar to other crypto lending firms, Tesseract offers loans to institutional investors while maintaining a 100% collateralization ratio for all stablecoin loans. Accepted collateral includes liquid crypto assets such as BTC, ETH, XRP, AVAX, DOT, and major stablecoins.

Established in 2011, Bitstamp is one of the oldest cryptocurrency exchanges. It provides lending services for nine assets via Tesseract. Despite the challenges faced by the crypto lending industry following the collapse of significant lenders such as Celsius and BlockFi in 2022, Bitstamp continues to publish monthly transparency reports on its lending operations to bolster trust in its business model.

The firm anticipates that the recent hike in interest rates will attract crypto investors—especially during bearish market conditions—as it offers an opportunity for users to earn interest on idle cryptocurrencies while awaiting market recovery.
