USD1 is a top stablecoin with no attestation and no transparency

World Liberty Financial, the Donald Trump-endorsed and Justin Sun-advised cryptocurrency firm, has launched a stablecoin, USD1, that has very quickly become one of the largest in the world. However, despite this multi-billion-dollar growth, the token provides effectively no transparency; no audits, no attestations, not even a transparency webpage that purports to show its holdings.

However, while the page does claim that the token is “100% backed by short-term US government treasuries, US dollar deposits and other cash equivalents,” it provides no additional evidence or insight beyond that.  Is World Liberty Financial a dead project?

Charles Hoskinson Says Cardano ‘Isn’t Dying,’ Offers Reasons Why Sentiment Around the Crypto Project Is Negative

Cardano (ADA) co-creator Charles Hoskinson is dispelling rumors that the Ethereum (ETH) competitor is a dying blockchain. In a new thread on the social media platform X, the Input Output Hong Kong (IOHK) CEO says that the negative sentiment surrounding Cardano has to do with its governance protocol not scaling to meet its needs, an issue solved by the most recent Voltaire update. “There have been years of pent-up grievances, unexplored road map items, unfunded growth strategies, and needed partnerships that haven’t been addressed due to Cardano’s governance not scaling to meet the needs of the ecosystem.
