Dimon maintained that crypto is used for illicit activities, including sex trafficking and money laundering, but indicated that the U-turn is more about giving clients what they want. “We are going to allow you to buy it,” Dimon said , while speaking at an annual investor day on May 19. “I don’t think you should smoke, but I defend your right to smoke.

Decentralized Stablecoins: The Future of On-Chain Money? In an era where financial freedom is increasingly digital, stablecoins have emerged as the bridge between the volatility of cryptocurrencies and the predictability of traditional fiat currencies. But while most stablecoins today are centrally managed, a new wave is rising—decentralized stablecoins—which could reshape the future of on-chain money. What Are Decentralized Stablecoins?

Moreover, it has reinforced that it won’t file for an XRP ETF as long as there are still regulatory concerns. Yet, with a new pro-crypto administration in place, those troubles look to be behind the asset. Will that sway the firm to seek out an exchange-traded fund for the token?
