April 17 (CoinDesk) — Glassnode’s Bitcoin on-chain RHODL Ratio currently stands at 4.5, its third-highest level on record. The metric signals market conditions more aligned with a cycle bottom than a top, per the data. The RHODL Ratio compares the value of Bitcoin held by long-term holders (6 months to 3 years) to that held by short-term holders (1 day to 3 months).

On April 17, Singapore Gulf Bank (SGB) today announced the launch of a stablecoin issuance and redemption service. Corporate and high-net-worth clients can now directly swap fiat currency for stablecoins (and vice versa) via their SGB accounts, enabling 24/7 real-time settlement without relying on traditional correspondent banking workflows.

SGB CEO Tan Shao-En noted: “Challenges with cross-border fund transfers and capital placement have emerged as key barriers to customer growth. By integrating stablecoin issuance and redemption directly into our banking system, we’ve enabled real-time fiat-to-digital asset conversions. We’re building a bank for a borderless world.” The service i
