2026.01.22 10:54:50

On January 22, River announced via an official statement that it has secured an $8 million strategic investment from Justin Sun. The funding will support its deep integration into the TRON ecosystem and deployment of chain-agnostic stablecoin infrastructure. River will bring cross-ecosystem assets and liquidity to TRON via its stablecoin, satUSD. The token can be minted 1:1 against USDT, USDD, or USD1, or backed by multi-chain assets—enabling users to access TRON’s native high-yield opportunities directly. satUSD will join USDT and USDD in the SUN.io stablecoin pool, with price oracles powered by WinkLink. It will also be available for lending on JustLend. The integration will include core assets like USDT, TRX, wBTC, BTT, JST, SUN, WIN, and NFTs, with native sTRX staking rewards serving as the initial onboarding point. River also plans to roll out a Smart Vault and an institutional-grade Prime Vault, delivering a scalable yield solution for stablecoins and TRON’s core assets.

KPMG: Federal Reserve Expected to Hike Rates in the Second Half

On April 3rd, escalating tensions in the Iran conflict have amplified global stagflation risks. KPMG Chief Economist Diane Swonk noted that if stagflation takes hold, a "deep recession" may be the only resolution. Stagflation is a concerning economic scenario marked by persistent high inflation and weak growth. “The Strait of Hormuz blockade and the resulting oil price surge have impacts far beyond a simple oil shock,” Swonk said. She argues the current situation’s effects are more severe than any prior oil crisis in history—directly driving up costs across sectors (spurring price hikes) while slashing businesses’ hiring intentions, which hits the job market. With multiple intertwined factors, stagflation risks keep rising. Swonk’s view aligns with market investors. “Odds of a Fed rate hike in the second half of the year are climbing; I expect the Fed will be forced to act, with other central banks following suit,” she explained.

The US Service Sector Contracts for the First Time in Three Years

April 3rd — Chris Williamson, Chief Business Economist at S&P Global Market Intelligence, noted that PMI survey data shows the U.S. economy is under pressure from rising prices and mounting uncertainty, with the Middle East conflict further amplifying concerns over recent policy moves. The service sector contracted for the first time since January 2023, pushing the overall economy to near-stagnation with a March annualized growth rate of just 0.5%. The consumer-facing services industry was hit hardest, posting one of its largest declines since 2009 (excluding lockdown periods). Previously strong financial services and tech sectors have shown signs of weakening amid market volatility and worries about higher interest rates. The main driver of slowing growth is reduced spending from weaker purchasing power, while March’s sharp energy price hike pushed up costs and selling prices significantly. Survey data suggests businesses are increasingly likely to pass those costs to custome
