MORNING NEWS
1. Trump Media Announces ETF Partnership with Crypto.com
Shares of Trump Media jumped about 9% in extended trading on Monday after the parent of the president’s social media company announced an agreement with Crypto.com to launch a series of exchange-traded funds and related products.
The company, which runs the Truth Social platform, has been hammered by investors so far this year despite President Donald Trump’s return to the White House. Prior to the after-hours gain, the stock was down 38% in 2025.
In the press release, Trump Media said the ETFs and exchange-traded products will have a “Made in America” focus and will launch later this year, subject to regulatory approval. The funds will be marketed under TMTG’s newly-launched fintech brand, Truth.Fi.
According to the release, Crypto.com will “support the backend technology, provide custody, and supply the cryptocurrencies for the ETFs,” which are set to include a basket of digital assets like Bitcoin and Cronos (Crypto.com’s native token), alongside traditional securities spanning industries such as energy.
2. House of Doge Launches Dogecoin Reserve with 10 Million DOGE Purchase
House of Doge, a recently established corporate branch of the Dogecoin Foundation, is working to promote Dogecoin as a widely accepted, decentralized currency for everyday transactions.
The organization has launched the Dogecoin Reserve, a move aimed at positioning Dogecoin as a potential global payment solution. As part of the initiative, the Reserve has purchased 10 million Dogecoin at its current market value.
Through the establishment of the Dogecoin Reserve, House of Doge seeks to address transaction delays that have previously hindered the adoption of digital currencies for everyday payments.
“With innovative technology, merchants will be able to accept Dogecoin payments instantly at checkout, avoiding the usual wait times tied to blockchain transactions, yielding the same confidence in Dogecoin as with traditional payment methods,” stated the Dogecoin Foundation in the press release.
3. Crypto Spot Capital Flows Show Strong USDT Inflows Amid BTC Outflows
Crypto spot capital flows for March 25 show significant movement across major cryptocurrencies.
Top net inflows (24h) include USDT (+$77.27M), APEX (+$15.02M), BNB (+$13.72M), PYUSD (+$4.67M), and DOGE (+$3.24M).
Meanwhile, top net outflows (24h) include BTC (-$179M), USDC (-$91.82M), ETH (-$66.81M), FDUSD (-$41.51M), and SOL (-$38.60M).
The massive BTC outflows contrasting with strong USDT inflows raise questions about whether this represents rotation between assets or a broader risk-off sentiment in the market.
4. Arbitrum DAO Considers Clawing Back Gaming Catalyst Program Funding
The Arbitrum DAO is considering whether to claw back funding from an organization set up to accelerate the gaming ecosystem on the largest Ethereum Layer 2, according to a proposal on Monday.
“The Gaming Catalyst Program (GCP) was approved during a period of exceptionally optimistic projections that, in hindsight, proved unsustainable,” the proposal read. “One of its primary backers – Treasure DAO – has already exited Arbitrum, and other key contributors have either stepped down or signaled waning commitment.”
The GCP was launched in March 2024 with an allocation of 225 million ARB tokens (approximately $215 million at the time), which would have been spent over a three-year period. The program faced a $25 million cap on operational expenses with the remaining tokens designated for gaming grants.
David Bolger, a member of the GCP council, defended the program by noting that “Arbitrum has become a key hub for gaming projects” with “over 25 gaming-related chains building with Arbitrum’s tech stack” including traditional gaming industry giants such as Ubisoft, Square Enix, and Tap Nation.
5. Kraken Explores $1 Billion Debt Raise Ahead of Potential IPO
Crypto exchange Kraken is considering raising $1 billion in debt ahead of a possible initial public offering, according to Bloomberg, which cited anonymous sources.
The company is working with Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, and the debt talks are at a “preliminary stage,” according to the report.
Earlier this month, Kraken said it is considering an IPO as soon as the first quarter of 2026, though the company could still change course. Kraken’s plan to possibly go public follows the SEC dropping its case against the firm for alleged securities law violations.
Last year, Kraken recorded over $1.5 billion in revenue in 2024. Its U.S. rival, Coinbase, went public in April 2021.
NOON NEWS
1. White House Pushes for Accelerated GENIUS Act Passage
The White House is pushing Congress to accelerate the passage of the GENIUS Act, a bill aimed at regulating payment stablecoins, with the goal of getting it to President Donald Trump’s desk within two months.
The bill, introduced by Senator Bill Hagerty, passed the Senate Banking Committee on March 13 with an 18-6 vote. It is expected to reach the Senate floor for debate next month, with Majority Leader John Thune overseeing its progress.
If the bill secures strong bipartisan support—potentially reaching 70 votes—the White House and key lawmakers may push to bypass a reconciliation process with the House’s competing STABLE Act.
Meanwhile, the STABLE Act, sponsored by Representatives French Hill and Bryan Steil, is set for markup in the House Financial Services Committee on April 2. While some lawmakers want to resolve differences between the two bills, others are urging the House to pass the Senate’s version as-is to avoid delays.
2. CZ Acknowledges USD1 Stablecoin, Warns Against Scams
Binance’s former CEO Changpeng Zhao acknowledged the USD1 stablecoin in an X post on March 24. He clarified in another post that the USD1 stablecoin is not yet tradable, cautioning the community against scams using the same name.
Hours before CZ warned users about potential scams linked to USD1, he revealed that the smart contract of the self-proclaimed “World Liberty Financial USD” stablecoin has been deployed on BNB Chain.
The official X page for WLFI has since quoted his tweet with an official warning, stating that USD1 is not yet tradable and that users need to beware of scams.
World Liberty Financial, the Trump family-linked crypto project, revealed plans to create and issue its own stablecoin last October. The project has appointed Rich Teo, co-founder of stablecoin issuer Paxos, as World Liberty’s stablecoin and payment lead.
3. Bitcoin ETFs Record Seven-Day Inflow Streak
Spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a seven-day inflow streak, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment. On Monday, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $84.17 million, extending their positive momentum. This marks the longest streak of consecutive inflows since January 24.
According to SoSoValue data, Fidelity’s FBTC led Monday’s inflows with $82.85 million. Bitwise’s BITB followed with $19.23 million, while BlackRock’s IBIT saw $18 million. VanEck’s HODL recorded a $5 million inflow. However, outflows from Ark and 21Shares’ ARKB, totaling $41 million, offset part of the gains.
Over the past seven days, total net inflows reached $860.6 million. Cumulative net inflows across all spot Bitcoin ETFs now stand at $36.13 billion.
While Bitcoin ETFs gained momentum, spot Ether ETFs remained stagnant. They saw zero net inflows on Monday after enduring a 13-day outflow streak, which led to $400 million in withdrawals.
4. WLFI Sells 184,000 ENA for Bitcoin
According to on-chain analyst Ember’s monitoring, the DeFi project WLFI, supported by the Trump family, sold 184,000 ENA in the past day in exchange for 0.794 WBTC (about $69,000).
The project previously raised funds through the sale of WLFI and invested in 11 tokens, most of which were transferred to Coinbase Prime. It is still unclear whether they have been sold.
Currently, ETH and WBTC account for 87% of WLFI’s investment portfolio.
5. Soneium Integrates Hyperlane for Cross-Chain Interoperability
Ethereum scaling solution Soneium has integrated interoperability framework Hyperlane, enabling its developers to build cross-chain dApps and token bridges.
The integration with Hyperlane is instrumental for Soneium’s goal of empowering its developers with third-party tools that facilitate building and launching dApps. With Hyperlane’s cross-chain interoperability, developers will be able to create cross-chain apps and token bridges, enabling them to connect Soneium with other blockchains.
This development comes on the heels of another announcement from Soneium, which recently partnered with Japan’s biggest social network LINE to launch a series of mini-apps.
Despite the news, Soneium’s token SONY is down 17% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.00014, where it has been consolidating after the sharp drop from its January peak of $0.0007.

BlackRock has launched its first bitcoin exchange-traded product in Europe, in a bid to tap growing demand for cryptocurrency exposure in new markets after attracting more than $50 billion into similar products in the United States.
The world’s largest asset manager has launched its ‘iShares Bitcoin ETP’, which is domiciled in Switzerland and listed in Paris, Amsterdam, and Frankfurt.
BlackRock was one of the first institutional investors to offer exchange-traded products in the U.S. to track the spot price of bitcoin after the Securities and Exchange Commission first approved them in January 2024.
It has partnered with Coinbase as custodian and Bank of New York Mellon as administrator on the latest product.
5. PumpSwap Reaches $1 Billion Trading Volume in First Week
Memecoin launchpad Pump.fun’s new decentralized exchange (DEX), PumpSwap, surpassed a cumulative trading volume of $1 billion a week after its launch, according to blockchain analytics platform Dune.
On March 19, Pump.fun launched its Solana DEX to create a “frictionless environment” for memecoin trading. Previously, memecoins launched on Pump.fun needed to migrate into the Solana DEX Raydium after bootstrapping liquidity.
During its first day, the platform had a modest trading volume of about $50 million. On March 24, the volume spiked eight times, recording over $425 million in trading volume.
Daily swaps on the platform peaked on March 24, recording 4.2 million transactions. The DEX’s cumulative number of swaps surpassed 11 million, while the number of active users has reached over 388,000.
