Lending

Lending protocols form the backbone of the decentralized money market, allowing users to lend or borrow digital assets without intermediaries. Using smart contracts, platforms like Aave and Morpho automate interest rates based on supply and demand while requiring over-collateralization for security. The 2026 lending landscape features advanced permissionless vaults and institutional-grade credit lines. This tag covers the evolution of capital efficiency, liquidations, and the integration of diverse collateral types, including LSTs and tokenized RWAs.

Fed Reforms, Not Rate Cuts, Will Benefit Cannabis Industry, Say CEOs

Fed Reforms, Not Rate Cuts, Will Benefit Cannabis Industry, Say CEOs

The post Fed Reforms, Not Rate Cuts, Will Benefit Cannabis Industry, Say CEOs appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Federal Reserve building in Washington DC superimposed on a twenty dollar bill and a grunge texture background getty The Federal Reserve’s decision to cut interest rates by a quarter point may be good news for the economy. But for cannabis CEOs operating in a fragmented, still federally illegal market, one where mom-and-pop shops are forced to operate as cash-only enterprises while still paying exorbitant taxes thanks to 280E, the verdict is mixed. Anthony Coniglio, CEO of NewLake Capital Partners, a Connecticut-based cannabis real estate firm, expresses cautious optimism. Although he says the news is encouraging, much will depend on how much further the central bank decides to cut rates. Early news reports suggest two more reductions may come this year. “Many operators have a 12 to 14% cost of debt, so a 25-basis point reduction is only a fraction of savings, but it could be a welcome boost to cash flow,” Coniglio explains. There are other ways it could alleviate headaches for cannabis operators/professionals. “Beyond the direct impact to cash flows, an easing cycle could boost interest in risk assets such as cannabis debt and equities,” continues Coniglio. “With a wall of refinancing coming in 2026 and 2027, increased interest in cannabis debt would be a welcome development. But let’s not confuse macro tailwinds with meaningful change. Without rescheduling, 280E relief and banking reform, capital will remain cautious and growth constrained.” Terry Mendez, CEO of Safe Harbor Financial, a Colorado-based cannabis banking services provider, echoes Coniglio’s sentiment. Although the tax cuts may have positive reverberations across the economy, that likely won’t be the case for the cannabis space. “The Fed’s decision to cut interest rates will ripple across the economy, lowering borrowing costs and stimulating investment,” said Mendez. “For the cannabis sector, however, the benefits remain limited. While most…

5 Best New Crypto Coins to Buy Now

5 Best New Crypto Coins to Buy Now

The post 5 Best New Crypto Coins to Buy Now appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. As the crypto market heats up, smart investors hunt beyond the usual suspects like Bitcoin and Ethereum for the next big gains. Low-cap altcoins often hold the real potential for exponential growth and can turn a small investment into a massive sum. This guide highlights the five best new crypto coins creating buzz in the altcoin community and set to deliver major growth this bull run. Source – Cryptonews YouTube Channel Pepenode (PEPENODE) Early investors have helped Pepenode (PEPENODE) raise around $1.3 million in just a few weeks since its launch. The project lets token holders play a virtual Mine-to-Earn game. Players buy “meme nodes” to set up their own meme coin mining rigs. Using $PEPENODE tokens, players can upgrade their virtual rigs to mine more efficiently and earn bigger rewards. Mining gives players $PEPENODE tokens and extra bonuses like FARTCOIN, PEPE, and other coins, keeping the game sustainable. Pepenode also has a deflationary model. Seventy percent of tokens used to upgrade or refine mining rigs get permanently burned. This feature, along with growing user adoption, can help $PEPENODE’s price rise over time after exchange listings. Popular analyst Michael Wrubel says $PEPENODE is one of the top meme coins to buy in 2025. He explains in a recent YouTube video that the project builds on Pepe’s strong history while offering real rewards to token holders. At first, players may see $PEPENODE mainly as a utility token to unlock bonus meme coin rewards. But if the token grows, regular $PEPENODE rewards could become just as valuable, attracting more users to the ecosystem. Buyers can visit Pepenode’s official website to get tokens at a temporary discount. Presale buyers can stake their $PEPENODE tokens for very high returns, with an APY around 1000%.

3 Ways Crypto Firms Gain from SEC Corporate Disclosure Shakeup Backed by Paul Atkins

3 Ways Crypto Firms Gain from SEC Corporate Disclosure Shakeup Backed by Paul Atkins

U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Paul Atkins said on Friday that the agency is preparing reforms to corporate disclosure rules, a move that could give companies, including those in the crypto sector, greater flexibility over when they report earnings. Speaking on CNBC, Atkins confirmed that the SEC is “prioritizing” a proposal to let markets, including investors and banks, determine the cadence of company reporting instead of sticking to mandatory quarterly schedules. SEC’s Atkins Backs Flexible Reporting Cadence, Says Market Should Decide The plan follows renewed calls this week from President Donald Trump to shift from quarterly to semiannual reporting, which he argued would save costs and allow executives to concentrate on long-term strategy. Atkins said the rule change, if approved, would leave the decision in the hands of companies themselves. “For the sake of shareholders and public companies, the market can decide what the proper cadence is,” he noted. Supporters of less frequent reporting, such as Norway’s sovereign wealth fund and the Long-Term Stock Exchange, say semiannual reports reduce the pressure of short-term thinking. Opponents, however, argue that cutting down disclosures would reduce transparency, particularly harming retail investors who rely heavily on public filings. If adopted, the shift could carry notable benefits for crypto firms navigating U.S. regulatory structures: Filing fewer reports could ease the financial and administrative burden for crypto companies already juggling regulatory scrutiny. With less pressure to deliver short-term results, firms could devote greater attention to developing long-term blockchain strategies and expanding ecosystems. Flexible reporting cadence could allow companies to communicate performance in ways that better reflect the volatility and innovation cycles of the digital asset market. Atkins stressed that investors and banks will play a central role in setting expectations. “Investors will demand that sort of information at the cadence that’s appropriate to what the company’s doing,” he said, adding that banks will also weigh in given their role in lending and capital markets. Currently, all publicly traded companies in the U.S. must file quarterly earnings reports, though forecasts remain voluntary. The SEC could alter that requirement with a majority vote, and with Republicans holding a 3-1 advantage and one seat open, the proposal faces a favorable political landscape. Atkins pointed out that semiannual reporting is already standard practice for foreign private issuers trading in U.S. markets. “You have to realize that right now, semi-annual reporting is no stranger to our markets; foreign private issuers do it right now,” he said. No timeline has been set for the change, but Atkins described the proposal as “a good way forward.” Trump first floated the idea in 2018 and revived the push earlier this week in a post on his social media platform. SEC Shifts Tone on Crypto, Pairing Public Hearings With Compliance Outreach The SEC is stepping up its engagement with the crypto sector through public hearings, policy outreach, and a shift in enforcement strategy. On September 9, the agency announced that its Crypto Task Force will host a public hearing on October 17 at SEC headquarters in Washington. The session, scheduled from 1-4 p.m., will focus on financial privacy and surveillance, bringing together experts developing technologies that protect individual data. “Technology that helps Americans protect their privacy is critically important,” said Commissioner Hester M. Peirce, adding that insights from the event will guide future policy discussions in the crypto space. At the same time, SEC leadership is signaling a softer approach to compliance. In a September 15 interview with the Financial Times, SEC Chair Paul Atkins said the agency will issue notices of technical violations before pursuing formal enforcement actions. “You can’t just suddenly come and bash down their door,” Atkins said, criticizing the SEC’s past “shoot first and ask questions later” approach, which drew widespread industry pushback. The SEC is also expanding its outreach efforts nationwide. On September 18, the Crypto Task Force held a roundtable in Chicago as part of its “On The Road” initiative, which has already visited Dallas, Boston, and Berkeley. The sessions aim to include smaller crypto projects with fewer than ten employees, ensuring their perspectives shape regulatory frameworks. According to the SEC, the goal is to create rules that reflect broad input across the digital asset industry
