By removing central authorities, DEXs like Uniswap and Raydium prioritize privacy and user sovereignty. The 2026 DEX landscape is dominated by intent-based trading, MEV protection, and cross-chain liquidity aggregation.

Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up

Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up

The post Solana Price Next To Hit ATH? Unexpected Memecoin War Heating Up appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Insights: HeavenDEX became the 3rd-largest revenue protocol on Solana after launch. YZY token launch pushed throughput to 4,298 TPS in August. Rising tokenization could drive new demand for SOL and impact the price. The Solana network recorded rising activity in August 2025 as memecoin launchpads expanded on mainnet. The newly launched platform, HeavenDEX, ranked as the third-largest protocol by revenue, while the YZY token launch pushed throughput above 4,000 TPS. The developments raised questions about whether SOL price could move toward another all-time high soon. Solana Memecoin Launchpads Drive Competition A new memecoin launchpad called HeavenDEX became the third-largest revenue generator on Solana within days of its debut. Data from DeFiLlama on August 21, 2025, showed that HeavenDEX earned $1.02 million in 24-hour revenue. Pump.Fun topped the chart with 1.57 million, while Axiom Pro followed with 1.5 million. Jupiter and Phantom completed the top five. Solana HeavenDEX Launchpad in Spotlight | Source: SolanaFloor The sudden rise of HeavenDEX reflected growing interest in Solana-based launchpads. This trend is similar to earlier activity in January, when Solana reached its all-time high price following the launch of the TRUMP token. Similarly, heavy demand for new tokens helped lift SOL to record levels at the time. Activities are once again increasing on-chain as the YZY token went live. According to MartyParty, a market observer, Solana handled 4,298 transactions per second during the launch. He suggested this was a sign of what might come if larger token sales were carried out on the network. Solana Steps Up Amid YZY Token Launch | Source: MartyParty The impact of these launches is notably beyond individual tokens. Each new memecoin project required SOL for trading, fees, and liquidity, creating new demand for the native coin. With multiple launchpads now competing for attention, token creation on Solana is…

China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence

China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence

The post China Considers Yuan-Pegged Stablecoins to Boost Global Influence appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.   Key highlights: China may allow yuan-pegged stablecoins to boost its global currency influence. Conflux has already launched a CNH-backed stablecoin for cross-border payments. Policy shift challenges dollar dominance amid growing global stablecoin adoption. China is reportedly considering allowing stablecoins pegged to the yuan for the first time, signaling a major reversal in a country that previously banned cryptocurrency trading. The move is aimed at boosting the yuan’s influence globally and modernizing cross-border payments. 180-Degree policy shift in digital assets If approved, this plan would represent a radical shift in Beijing’s approach to digital assets. In 2021, China banned cryptocurrency trading and mining over concerns about financial system stability. Now, authorities are exploring ways to internationalize the yuan while maintaining strict regulatory oversight. The State Council, China’s cabinet, will consider and possibly approve a roadmap for expanding the yuan’s use globally later this month. The document will set targets for international use, outline responsibilities for regulators, and define risk prevention measures. First steps taken by Chinese blockchain projects Even as the strategy is being discussed, the Chinese blockchain platform Conflux has already launched a stablecoin backed by the offshore yuan (CNH).  This initiative targets cross-border payments, particularly under the One Belt, One Road program, which could transform payments between Asian, African, and European countries. China has long sought to elevate the yuan to a global reserve currency on par with the U.S. dollar or euro, but tight currency controls and trade surpluses have limited progress.  According to SWIFT, the yuan’s share of global payments fell to 2.89% in May, while the dollar holds 48.46%. RMB’s share as a global payment’s currency.

$70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion

$70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion

The post $70B DeFi Protocol Aave Launches on Aptos Amid Expansion appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol with $70 billion in net deposits, has launched on Aptos, a layer-1 blockchain founded by former Meta employees. The move may deepen stablecoin and liquid staking token liquidity on the blockchain, two asset classes subject to regulation in 2025. According to an announcement shared with Cointelegraph, Aave will support four coins native to the blockchain at launch: stablecoins USDC (USDC) and USDt (USDT), Aptos (APT), and Ethena Staked USDe (sUSDe). The Aptos Foundation will provide users with rewards and liquidity incentives to promote the use of Aave on the Aptos blockchain. The arrival of Aave could deepen stablecoin liquidity on the blockchain, as the fiat-pegged cryptocurrencies are experiencing a breakthrough and are one of the industry’s most-discussed use cases. On Aptos, the stablecoin market cap has surged in 2025, jumping to $1.27 billion on Thursday from $627.8 million on Jan. 1. Stablecoin market cap on Aptos. Source: DefiLlama The launch comes as Aave positions itself to take advantage of “new collateral markets,” such as liquid staking tokens (LSTs). LSTs are a type of token given to users who stake assets, contributing to network security. These tokens can be used for DeFi activities such as lending or trading. “By expanding to Aptos, Aave increases access to lending, borrowing, and savings to a new, fast-growing community,” an Aave spokesperson told Cointelegraph. Currently, Aptos has a total value locked of $857 million, according to DefiLlama. Aave enters an ecosystem with few DeFi protocol competitors. Of the top five protocols listed by DefiLlama, only one has a total value locked of over $1 billion: PancakeSwap at $2.1 billion.

Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens

Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens

The post Coinbase Rolls Out In-App DEX Trading to All Base Tokens appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Coinbase has started introducing decentralized-exchange (DEX) trading inside its main platform, giving customers direct access to every token issued on Base, the company’s Ethereum layer-2 network Coinbase has started introducing decentralized-exchange (DEX) trading inside its main platform, giving customers direct access to every token issued on Base, the company’s Ethereum layer-2 network. Chief Executive Officer Brian Armstrong and Base lead Jesse Pollak announced the rollout during a livestream on Thursday, saying the step aligns with Coinbase’s aim to let users trade “everything you want to trade.” The feature, which routes orders through on-chain smart contracts rather than Coinbase’s centralized order book, is already available to roughly 5% of the exchange’s customers and will be expanded in stages, according to remarks made during the event. Integrating Base’s on-chain liquidity is intended to shorten listing times for new tokens and deepen trading volumes while allowing Coinbase to earn fees from wallet interactions. The move underscores Coinbase’s broader shift toward on-chain services as it diversifies revenue streams amid heightened regulatory scrutiny of its conventional exchange business. Base, launched last year, has attracted a growing ecosystem of developers; tighter integration with Coinbase’s 100-million-plus user base could accelerate adoption of the network.
