Binance Blog published a new article, introducing Binance's latest feature, Merchant Vouchers, designed to enhance seller engagement and promote ads in the P2P marketplace. This innovative tool allows verified P2P merchants to create and manage customized rebate campaigns, integrating vouchers directly into both new and existing ads. The introduction of Merchant Vouchers aims to provide sellers with a straightforward method to increase P2P traffic by incentivizing orders, making it easier for sellers to attract first-time buyers and retain existing customers. Binance P2P Merchant Vouchers are a customizable rebate tool available exclusively to verified merchants. This feature empowers merchants to create targeted campaigns directly on their P2P ads, offering rewards that encourage buyers to select specific listings the merchants wish to promote. By giving sellers full control over their promotional strategy within the Binance P2P platform, merchants can create customized rebate campaigns directly on their P2P ads, rewarding buyers and attracting more orders. This direct, in-platform approach allows sellers to stand out, drive volume, and build a loyal customer base. The Merchant Vouchers tool is particularly beneficial for merchants aiming to attract new buyers or reward loyal customers. It places promotional control firmly in the hands of merchants, enabling them to design and launch rebate campaigns on their own terms, without relying on platform-wide events. By offering buyers a direct incentive at the point of trade, merchants can expect increased engagement on their ads, including interest from first-time buyers who might otherwise scroll past. In a competitive P2P marketplace, Merchant Vouchers provide a concrete edge by attracting first-time buyers and rewarding loyal customers, thus fostering long-term relationships. Creating a Binance P2P Merchant Voucher involves accessing the Merchant Portal, clicking on the Vouchers section to access the Vouchers Dashboard, and then creating a new voucher campaign by completing all required fields, including target audience, reward coin, rebate type, total budget, and expiry date. Once all fields are complete, the voucher is applied to the ad, and the campaign launches immediately. For new P2P ads, a voucher can be attached during ad creation by selecting an available voucher in the Rewards section. For buyers, some vouchers are designated for new customers only, while others are for returning buyers. The reward amount and currency depend on the merchant's voucher campaign settings. When browsing P2P listings, buyers should look for ads with a voucher indicator, which signifies that a reward is attached to that ad. Upon order completion, rewards are automatically credited to the buyer's Funding Account, with no manual claim required. This seamless integration within the Binance P2P interface ensures a secure and familiar experience for both merchants and buyers.

Saturn, a DeFi yield protocol, announced plans to allocate up to 5% of its initial token supply to participants of its first season. According to Foresight News, the distribution will be based on the Gravity points held by users at the end of the season, which is set to conclude on August 8 or when the project reaches its capacity limit, whichever comes first. Gravity points are earned through protocol activities and do not hold monetary value, asset rights, or transferability. The allocation is contingent upon the successful launch of Saturn's governance token, and all terms are not binding or guaranteed. This distribution will not be available to users in the United States, EEA, United Kingdom, or sanctioned regions.

Stablecoins are on the brink of mainstream acceptance, driven by adoption from major technology firms, a development that Bitwise suggests could propel the market towards a $4 trillion valuation by the decade's end. According to Cointelegraph, Bitwise's chief investment officer, Matt Hougan, highlighted the recent use of stablecoins by companies like DoorDash and Meta as pivotal. Hougan described these initiatives as potentially transformative for stablecoins, despite their current limited scope and financial scale. He expressed confidence that stablecoins could eventually scale to trillions in assets and attract hundreds of millions of users. Several large non-crypto entities are experimenting with stablecoin technology. Meta recently introduced stablecoin payouts for creators in the Philippines and Colombia, while DoorDash announced on April 21 that it would offer stablecoin payments to its users, workers, and merchants. The current market value of stablecoins is just under $318 billion, but projections, including one from Citigroup in September, suggest the market could reach $4 trillion by 2030 under optimal conditions. Hougan emphasized that for stablecoins to achieve such growth, they must extend beyond their primary use in crypto trading and be adopted for everyday transactions, necessitating support from major industry players. Hougan argued that stablecoins offer businesses a cheaper and faster alternative for global payments, simplifying processes by eliminating the need for banking infrastructure and currency conversions. This simplicity is particularly valuable for global businesses managing numerous micropayments. In the U.S., confidence in stablecoin testing has increased following the passage of the GENIUS Act last year, which regulates stablecoin issuers and establishes a framework for token backing. Visa is among the companies embracing stablecoins, recently expanding its pilot to include five additional blockchains as settlement volumes grow. However, U.S. banks have expressed concerns about stablecoins, lobbying to restrict them due to perceived competition with bank deposits, which they argue could destabilize the banking system. The Senate is currently drafting legislation to regulate cryptocurrencies, including a clause that prohibits platforms from offering rewards on idle stablecoin holdings, while allowing other reward forms. Despite this, banking groups have criticized the proposed compromise, arguing it does not adequately address their concerns.

Bitcoin's open interest experienced a 5.13% decline over the past 24 hours, reflecting a cooling in leverage following an unsuccessful attempt to surpass the $82,000 mark.

Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley addressed the audience at the Consensus 2026 conference, noting significant financial trends. According to ChainCatcher, Horsley highlighted that despite market declines in the last quarter of the previous year and the first quarter of this year, inflows from U.S. wealth management channels reached their highest level in eight years.

The European Union and the United States were unable to finalize a long-delayed trade deal during recent overnight discussions. Bloomberg posted on X that despite ongoing negotiations, the talks did not result in an agreement. U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that he may soon impose new tariffs, adding pressure to the discussions. The failure to reach a consensus highlights ongoing trade tensions between the two economic powers. The potential tariffs could impact various sectors, further complicating the trade relationship. The EU and the US have been in negotiations for some time, aiming to resolve trade disputes and enhance economic cooperation. However, the lack of progress in the latest talks suggests that significant challenges remain. Both parties are expected to continue discussions in an effort to avoid the imposition of tariffs and to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.
