๐ USDT Soars as USDC Stumbles Amid Economic Uncertainty
Over the past year, the crypto space has seen significant shifts in the market dominance of dollar-pegged stablecoins. Tetherโs USDT is leading the pack , boasting a market dominance of 65.89%, up from 47.04% a year ago, and a market cap of $83.1B. On the flip side, Circleโs USD Coin (USDC) has experienced a downward trend, with its market share dwindling from 34.88% to 23.05% ๐. The shrinking market cap of USDC has been attributed to the US regulators' crypto crackdown. Amid economic instability, Tether pulled over $4.5B from banks in Q1 2023, and USDT now reports 85% backing by cash, cash equivalents, and short-term deposits.

Presidential hopefuls like Florida's Governor Ron DeSantis and Democrat Robert F. Kennedy are showing their Bitcoin-friendly side, advocating against stifling regulations and championing the right to hold BTC.

๐ Insuring crypto users and platforms isnโt that easy
Crypto insurance seems like a minefield, with insurance providers assessing over 2000 variables across 20 risk areas before even considering coverage. Last year, a staggering $3.9 billion was stolen from crypto companies, DeFi platforms, and users, marking a 22% rise from the previous year. Experts from Evertas, a leading crypto insurance firm, say the process involves a meticulous risk assessment of key management, storage options, and business, technology, and operational variables. Interestingly, individual crypto holders, particularly those not using an exchange, often struggle to find insurance coverage.

Royalty payments act as a form of passive income, paid to creators with each transaction involving their NFT - be it art, music, or game utilities.
