Deutsche Bank Considers Stablecoin or Joining Industry-Led Initiative, Exec Says
Deutsche Bank is studying stablecoins and tokenized deposits as part of its growing digital assets strategy, joining other major banks exploring blockchain infrastructure for payments and settlement. The bank is considering whether to issue its own stablecoin or join a broader industry initiative, Bloomberg reported, citing Sabih Behzad, Deutsche Bank's head of digital assets and currencies transformation. It's also weighing the development of a tokenized deposit system aimed at making payments more efficient, according to the report. Major banks in the U.S. are currently weighing the launch of a joint stablecoin in a bid to fend off competition from the cryptocurrency space. These reportedly include heavyweights like JPMorgan Chase (JPM), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C) and Wells Fargo (WFC). Regulatory clarity in the European Union and pending stablecoin legislation in the U.S. have helped accelerate stablecoin adoption. Behzad said banks have options that range from acting as reserve managers to launching their own digital tokens. Deutsche Bank has said in a research report that stablecoins are on the verge of mainstream adoption as crypto legislation advances under the Donald Trump administration. Germany's largest lender has, meanwhile, invested in cross-border payments firm Partior and joined Project Agorá, a central bank-backed initiative focused on wholesale tokenized payments.

Solana 's SOL Rebounds as Buyers Step In Above $147
SOL SOL showed renewed strength Saturday as it rebounded from a low of $147.13 to trade back above $151, despite lingering global macroeconomic headwinds. The recovery comes amid a spike in on-chain activity, with Coin Days Destroyed surging to 3.55 billion—its third-highest level this year—indicating movement of long-dormant tokens. The bounce off $147 confirmed a bullish double bottom pattern, supported by rising volume and a return to a short-term bullish channel on the 6-hour chart. Solana now faces overhead resistance near $152.85, where sellers previously stepped in, but a move above that level could open the door toward the $155–$157 zone. While Solana's network fundamentals remain strong, the broader macro environment continues to inject volatility into crypto markets, with ongoing US-China tariff disputes and rising global bond yields weighing on investor confidence. Technical Analysis Highlights SOL rallied from $147.13 to $152.94, gaining 3.95% intraday. Double bottom formed near $147.50, signaling a potential trend reversal. Resistance is developing at $152.50–$153.00, capping upward momentum. Bullish channel seen on 6-hour chart, with volume rising on green candles. Coin Days Destroyed spiked to 3.55 billion, its third-highest reading in 2025. Price dropped slightly in the last hour from $152.51 to $151.77 (0.48%). Hourly chart shows bearish engulfing pattern; $150.85 is near-term support.
