It's Fridayyyy Folks! Looks like the notorious Hinman documents have been found and are now in the hands of Ripple; they say it's shameless what's in them; HODLNAUT wins case with Faketoshi and CFTC touts to "aggressively police" Crypto. In addition, USDC is going to grow globally, Tether is expanding in Brazil, and Prime Trust settles dispute and returns $17MM to Celsius.
Meanwhile, the sentiment is leaning bearish about Bitcoin and the broader Crypto market. That said, $111M in Stablecoins has flooded exchanges which normally precedes a pump in price.
