VILNIUS, Lithuania, Jan. 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BTCC, the world's longest-serving cryptocurrency exchange, announced that its tokenized precious metals futures pairs reached an all-time high of $301.7 million in daily volume on January 27, 2026, as traders sought exposure to traditional safe-haven assets amid heightened global market volatility.

Top precious metals pairs by volume (January 27, 2026):

  • Silver (SILVERUSDT): $245 million, representing over 81% of total precious metals volume
  • Gold (PAXGUSDT, XAUTUSDT, GOLDUSDT): $56.7 million combined

This brings the total trading volume of precious metals on January 27, 2026 to $301.7 million, the highest on record.

The milestone reflects a clear behavioural shift, as traders actively explore products to address the rise in macroeconomic uncertainty. The spike in tokenized silver trading volume aligns with renewed industrial demand forecasts and safe-haven positioning amid geopolitical tensions.

BTCC's performance in tokenized real-world assets (RWA) has accelerated rapidly in 2025. Throughout the year, the exchange recorded $53.1 billion in RWA futures volume, with quarterly volume growing 18-fold from Q1 to Q4. Gold and silver ranked among BTCC’s most-traded products alongside stocks such as NVIDIA and Tesla, reflecting growing demand for traditional market exposure via crypto-native platforms.

The momentum extends into 2026. BTCC is preparing to launch TradFi, a comprehensive solution that enables users to trade stocks, commodities, indices, and forex alongside crypto from a single account. As the exchange celebrates its 15th anniversary this year, it remains focused on bridging traditional finance and digital assets for millions of users worldwide.

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token

The post Headwind Helps Best Wallet Token appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Google has announced the launch of a new open-source protocol called Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) in partnership with Coinbase, the Ethereum Foundation, and 60 other organizations. This allows AI agents to make payments on behalf of users using various methods such as real-time bank transfers, credit and debit cards, and, most importantly, stablecoins. Let’s explore in detail what this could mean for the broader cryptocurrency markets, and also highlight a presale crypto (Best Wallet Token) that could explode as a result of this development. Google’s Push for Stablecoins Agent Payments Protocol (AP2) uses digital contracts known as ‘Intent Mandates’ and ‘Verifiable Credentials’ to ensure that AI agents undertake only those payments authorized by the user. Mandates, by the way, are cryptographically signed, tamper-proof digital contracts that act as verifiable proof of a user’s instruction. For example, let’s say you instruct an AI agent to never spend more than $200 in a single transaction. This instruction is written into an Intent Mandate, which serves as a digital contract. Now, whenever the AI agent tries to make a payment, it must present this mandate as proof of authorization, which will then be verified via the AP2 protocol. Alongside this, Google has also launched the A2A x402 extension to accelerate support for the Web3 ecosystem. This production-ready solution enables agent-based crypto payments and will help reshape the growth of cryptocurrency integration within the AP2 protocol. Google’s inclusion of stablecoins in AP2 is a massive vote of confidence in dollar-pegged cryptocurrencies and a huge step toward making them a mainstream payment option. This widens stablecoin usage beyond trading and speculation, positioning them at the center of the consumption economy. The recent enactment of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. gives stablecoins more structure and legal support. Imagine paying for things like data crawls, per-task…
