PANews reported on September 4th that Bitwise analyst Danny Nelson noted that the Pokémon card market is undergoing a crypto-transformation. Currently, most crypto-related RWA projects primarily serve traditional financial markets, such as government bonds, real estate, gold, and stocks. However, these markets already have mature digital trading systems, so cryptocurrencies only improve efficiency without fundamentally changing their operating models. In contrast, the Pokémon card market has reached billions of dollars, but it is still primarily a offline transaction with inefficient trading processes. Social auction app Whatnot generated $3 billion in sales through Pokémon card trading last year, but the market still lacks formalized investment vehicles such as ETFs or funds. CollectorCrypt's tokenized Pokémon card trading platform has garnered significant attention this week. Users can quickly buy and sell digital cards or deposit physical cards into the platform to generate NFTs for trading. Its CARDS token saw a tenfold increase in value within a week, generating an estimated annualized revenue of $38 million. Furthermore, its "Gacha Machine" (capsule toy machine) generated $16.6 million in revenue last week, forcing the team to restock due to high demand. Danny Nelson believes that crypto-innovation in the Pokémon card market may become a mainstream breakthrough, similar to the impact Polymarket had on prediction markets, creating global demand for new services.PANews reported on September 4th that Bitwise analyst Danny Nelson noted that the Pokémon card market is undergoing a crypto-transformation.

YZi accelerates on BNB Chain

The post YZi accelerates on BNB Chain appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. According to on-chain data from DeFiLlama, the circulating supply of USDe has surpassed 13 billion dollars. Market analysts note that this growth fits into a broader picture of stablecoin expansion, with increasing demand for digital dollars and synthetic products, a trend verified in major on-chain dashboards and industry reports. The Picture: Record of USDe and Strategic Push by YZi USDe consolidates a growth record in the crypto dollar segment, with a circulating supply that has exceeded 13 billion, as reported by recently verified market sources. In parallel, YZi Labs — the family office of Changpeng “CZ” Zhao and Yi He — intensifies collaboration with Ethena Labs for the next phase of scalability, with a distinctly cross‑chain horizon. The roadmap outlines three main directions: expansion on BNB Chain, launch of a fiat‑backed stablecoin (USDtb), and development of a settlement layer for institutional flows. The goal is to combine liquidity, compliance, and cross‑chain use cases, while maintaining a focus on transparency and risk management. That said, execution remains the decisive point. What’s Coming: Products and Integrations USDtb (in development): stablecoin pegged to fiat currencies, designed for fiat–crypto flows and for more straightforward accounting needs compared to the synthetic dollar USDe. Converge: level of institutional settlement developed in collaboration with Securitize. The design aims for interoperability with tokenized assets; Securitize, which has collaborated with BlackRock on the tokenized fund BUIDL, intends to strengthen the bridge between crypto and traditional finance. BNB Chain: extension of the USDe ecosystem to expand accessibility and integration into the DeFi world, with potential synergies on liquidity and on‑ramp. USDe in brief: how the “synthetic dollar” works USDe combines reserves in crypto assets (e.g., bitcoin, ether, solana) with short positions on perpetual futures to maintain the peg close to 1 USD. The mechanism, designed to neutralize the underlying volatility,…
