  • Bitcoin on TV: How shows like South Park influence crypto
    Cointelegraph.com - 13:15 Oct 02, 2025
    "South Park" is back to roasting crypto in its recent episode, but digital assets like Bitcoin have been a pop culture punchline for a long time. “South Park” extended its running gag on cryptocurrency in a recent episode, taking aim at prediction markets, trading apps, US regulators and politicians tied to the industry. Now in its 27th season, the animated series has built its reputation on unhinged satire of global events. Crypto has repeatedly taken some hits. Not everyone enjoys being lampooned on TV shows — the White House recently condemned its depiction of President Donald Trump in a relationship with Satan — but earlier crypto references were often embraced within the industry as proof of mainstream recognition.

  • Melania Trump plugs memecoin amid $10M team selling allegations
    Cointelegraph.com - 13:13 Oct 02, 2025
    US First Lady Melania Trump promoted her MELANIA token in an AI video, but questions linger over $10 million in team token sales and a 98% price collapse. US First Lady Melania Trump has resumed promoting her Solana-based memecoin, MelaniaMeme (MELANIA), after months of silence, even as the project faces ongoing questions about millions of dollars in unexplained token sales. In a Thursday X post, Trump returned with an artificial intelligence-generated video promoting the Official MelaniaMeme token as the path “into the future,” tagging the official X account of the memecoin. However, blockchain analysts were quick to note that the promotion did not address concerns over token sales by team wallets. Read more
  • ‘Stablecoin duopoly ending’ as USDT, USDC dominance falls to 84%
    Cointelegraph.com - 12:05 Oct 02, 2025
    Despite dominating stablecoin inflows, Tether’s USDt and Circle’s USDC have slowly lost market share, signaling the end of the “stablecoin duopoly.” Tether’s USDt and Circle’s USDC, the two largest stablecoins by market capitalization, have slowly lost market share in the past year, suggesting a major shift in the stablecoin landscape. Despite Tether’s USDt (USDT) and Circle’s USDC (USDC) steadily increasing their market caps, the stablecoins have lost more than 5% of their combined market share since Oct. 2, 2024, according to data from DefiLlama and CoinGecko. Nic Carter, industry analyst and Castle Island Ventures partner, took to X on Wednesday to address the decline of USDT and USDC dominance in a post titled “The stablecoin duopoly is ending.” Read more
  • OpenAI hits $500B valuation, surpassing SpaceX as world’s largest startup
    Cointelegraph.com - 11:42 Oct 02, 2025
    Tether is estimated to be the crypto company closest to rivaling OpenAI’s $500 billion valuation, far ahead of Coinbase, Ripple and Circle. Artificial intelligence company OpenAI has become the world’s largest startup after reaching a $500 billion valuation in a secondary share sale.  Citing anonymous sources, Bloomberg reported on Thursday that current and former OpenAI employees sold $6.6 billion in stock to investors including Thrive Capital, SoftBank Group Corp., Dragoneer Investment Group, Abu Dhabi’s MGX and T.Rowe Price.  The investment round boosted OpenAI's valuation to $500 billion, leapfrogging Elon Musk’s startup SpaceX, which has a market capitalization of about $400 billion. The company also dwarfed startups ByteDance and Anthropic, which are valued at $220 billion and $183 billion, respectively.  Read more
  • Alpaca rolls out network enabling direct tokenization of US stocks
    Cointelegraph.com - 01:00 Oct 02, 2025
    The Instant Tokenization Network allows institutions to mint and redeem tokenized US stocks with in-kind settlement and 24/7 access. US broker-dealer Alpaca has launched an Instant Tokenization Network (ITN) that allows institutions to mint and redeem tokenized US stocks directly, a move that could help boost onchain liquidity in a segment of the tokenization market still constrained by structural barriers. The ITN enables institutions to tokenize portfolios with a single API call and redeem tokens in-kind for the underlying shares without settlement delays, Alpaca disclosed Wednesday. The service operates beyond traditional market hours, offering 24/7 access.  By allowing in-kind redemptions — directly exchanging tokens for their underlying assets rather than settling in cash first — the network aims to make tokenized stocks more liquid and efficient.
