Huma Joins the Global Dollar Network to Advance Stablecoin Adoption on Solana
San Francisco, California, June 4th, 2025, Chainwire
Huma has officially joined the Global Dollar Network (GDN) — a coalition of leading enterprises committed to accelerating the adoption of stablecoins through aligned incentives, regulatory clarity, and global utility. Launched by Paxos and powered by Global Dollar (USDG), the network includes members such as Robinhood, Kraken, Anchorage, Nuvei, and Worldpay.
USDG is a US dollar-backed stablecoin issued by Paxos Digital Singapore and is compliant with the Monetary Authority of Singapore's (MAS) upcoming stablecoin regulatory framework. Available on Solana, Ethereum, and other public blockchains approved by MAS, USDG supports fast, low-cost, and secure global money movement. Significantly, USDG's preferred blockchain is Solana—chosen for its unparalleled speed, efficiency, and scalability, making it ideally suited for powering real-time financial transactions. Currently, around $3.5 to $4 billion of daily stablecoin volume already occurs on Solana, highlighting its strong adoption and capacity for supporting global-scale financial operations.
A Step Forward for PayFi
Stablecoins have become a foundational layer of programmable finance—central to the future of PayFi and global liquidity—powering use cases from real-time settlement to cross-border payments. The Global Dollar Network builds on this momentum with a model designed to strengthen and scale the PayFi ecosystem. Aligned incentives: Network revenue is shared with GDN partners who mint, transact, and hold USDG.
Regulatory confidence: USDG is designed to comply with MAS's forthcoming stablecoin framework, providing the trust institutions require.
Lower barriers to participation: Enterprises can tap into stablecoin benefits without launching their own asset.
Collaborative adoption: GDN fosters industry coordination to drive real-world stablecoin use cases across finance and commerce. Erbil Karaman, Co-Founder of Huma, said 'Stablecoins are ready to power global payments and fintechs, however single issuer stablecoins fail to create the network effect needed to accelerate adoption. That's why we are so excited to be joining GDN alongside many of our existing partners and bring the PayFi movement to the masses.'
Huma's PayFi network has already facilitated over $4.5 billion in payment-backed transactions, addressing a global market exceeding $30 trillion annually. Stablecoins, such as USDG, have become essential financial infrastructure, processing over $35 trillion in transactions in 2024 alone, underscoring their critical role in the evolving financial landscape. Ronak Daya, Head of Product at Paxos, said 'Huma joins Global Dollar Network with a proven track record in delivering liquidity and credit solutions for global payments. Their infrastructure directly strengthens our network partners' ability to move money efficiently across borders. With significant stablecoin volume already on Solana, USDG is well positioned for adoption in remittance and money movement, an area in which Huma addresses critical challenges around liquidity and pre-funding.'

Trump Media to Raise $2.5 Billion With Plans to Buy Crypto, Create 'Bitcoin Treasury'
The Trump Media and Technology Group has announced that it is now raising $2.5 billion for its plans to buy cryptocurrency, investing heavily in the top crypto in the market, Bitcoin. The company revealed that it will create a "Bitcoin Treasury" for them, and it will help diversify their revenue and assets, as well as serve as their massive holdings amidst the rising token prices. It is known that the Trump Media and Technology Group's majority owner, President Donald Trump, has pushed for the United States' adoption of Bitcoin, offering a boost to the crypto industry earlier this year. Trump Media to Raise $2.5B to Buy Crypto In the latest press release by the Trump Media and Technology Group, the company has confirmed that it is raising $2.5 billion for its future endeavors of buying cryptocurrency for its assets. This will be offered in a private placement offering, and it will comprise approximately $1.5 billion in Trump Media common stock, as well as $1 billion in convertible debt to 50 investors. The news behind this massive investment came after the dinner for the largest investors of the $TRUMP meme coin, with the Financial Times first reporting that the company is planning to raise $3 billion. According to Trump Media CEO Devin Nunes, this move is a "big step forward" towards the company's plans to acquire "crown jewel assets consistent with America First principles." Bitcoin Treasury for Trump Media Trump Media believes that Bitcoin is the "apex instrument of financial freedom," with their main focus centering on creating a "Bitcoin treasury" for the company. The top coin would be held on Trump Media's balance sheet, and it will join the existing cash and short-term investments that total $759 million as of the end of the first quarter. Anchorage Digital and would be in charge of holding the Bitcoin for Trump Media. The release claimed that this massive investment would help the company against "harassment and discrimination by financial institutions." Trump and Cryptocurrency Back when Donald Trump was campaigning, he tapped into the crypto market for massive support as he expressed that he plans to lobby for wider adoption and regulation in the country. When he won, crypto prices surged exponentially, with Bitcoin achieving a $100,000 valuation, which it lost along the way. However, it slowly climbed back to it again amidst Trump's inauguration. While crypto's significant growth did not hold steadily, there have been several surges that brought back life and power to its valuation, and this is because of the previous promises of President Trump slowly unfolding. Last March, Trump unveiled the crypto strategic reserve for the United States, with the likes of Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, and more to be part of the country's digital assets. During the past months, Trump made significant moves for the cryptocurrency industry, including pardoning Silk Road's creator, easing down on regulatory scrutiny for companies, and incorporating digital tokens among programs and services. That being said, Trump's World Liberty Financial (WLF) also launched a meme coin called $TRUMP for people to invest in and trade. Originally published on Tech Times

Psy Develops First Trustless Bridge from Dogecoin to Solana
Hong Kong, China, May 22nd, 2025, Chainwire Solana users will be able to transact with Dogecoin securely, powered by Psy and Wormhole, tapping into a $36B asset and its vast community for DeFi, gaming & more. Psy (formerly QED Protocol) has developed a trustless bridge connecting Dogecoin to the Solana blockchain. This innovation brings proof-of-work security to Solana while making Dogecoin, the world's largest memecoin, available to Solana's ecosystem of dapps. This innovation allows Solana and Dogecoin to directly 'speak' to each other, with each blockchain able to independently verify the other's transactions and consensus without requiring trust in third parties. The bridge not only enhances security but also creates substantial ecosystem opportunities. Bringing Dogecoin's $36B+ market cap and massive community to Solana opens new possibilities for both networks. Dogecoin users gain access to Solana's DeFi, NFT, and gaming applications, while Solana developers can tap into Dogecoin's extensive user base. Unlike traditional bridges, which often rely on multisig signers or custodians, Psy's next-generation proof-of-work technology validates Dogecoin Proof of Work consensus directly on Solana. This trust-minimized approach helps address a major weakness in crypto infrastructure: bridge hacks, which have caused more than $2.8 billion in losses to date. This positions Psy as the leading proof-of-work innovator for Solana, bridging the security benefits of proof-of-work with Solana's speed and programmability. This integration demonstrates that new proof-of-work chains, like Psy's, can interact with high-performance blockchains without sacrificing security or requiring centralized intermediaries. This bridge continues Psy Protocol's mission to empower developers to build hyper-scalable web3 applications to host the next generation of the decentralized internet. The bridge supports standard Dogecoin wallets and exchange deposits. Quotes 'We have been working hard to find ways to better serve the Doge community, and now we get the chance to offer them even greater utility for their Dogecoin,' Carter Feldman, CEO of Psy Protocol, said. 'This demonstrates the promise of combining best-in-class security with user demand and an established developer base.' 'We're thrilled to announce the DOGE bridge to Solana, a big step in welcoming one of crypto's most iconic communities to the Solana ecosystem,' said Lily Liu, President of the Solana Foundation. 'DOGE, Bitcoin's beloved pet, embodies the fun, irreverent spirit that drives on-chain culture. By bridging DOGE into Solana's network, we're inviting the Dogecoin community—and all OG crypto enthusiasts—to join us in marrying on-chain culture and decentralized finance.' "Trustless verification has always been the holy grail of interoperability, but achieving it at scale has remained elusive,' said Robinson Burkey, co-founder of Wormhole. 'Seeing Psy and Wormhole come together to build this around an asset like DOGE captures the true cyberpunk spirit of crypto. We're excited to help bring a $36B asset to Solana—soon to be powered by Wormhole." How the Bridge Works The bridge captures and verifies each Dogecoin block header on Solana. Block headers contain essential blockchain data, including the previous block hash, timestamp, difficulty target, the Merkle root of all transactions in the block, and the Proof of Work consensus algorithm. By verifying these headers directly on Solana, the system cryptographically confirms the validity of Dogecoin transactions without intermediaries. When users send DOGE to the bridge, the system verifies the deposit on the Dogecoin blockchain and mints an equivalent amount of QDOGE tokens on Solana. To convert back, QDOGE tokens are burned on Solana, with withdrawal messages securely transmitted through Wormhole's cross-chain messaging protocol, triggering the release of the original DOGE to the user's Dogecoin address. To enable this bridge, Psy has created a suite of infrastructure for developers: txindex: a fully-featured indexer for Dogecoin with effortless handling of forking behavior electrs-doge: the first open-source block explorer for Dogecoin doge-sdk: the first JavaScript SDK for Dogecoin forkr: an easy-to-use tool for simulating forks/re-orgs on Bitcoin and Dogecoin. About Psy Protocol Psy is the leading innovator in next-generation proof-of-work technology, on a mission to restore the security and decentralization principles of blockchain while enabling modern scalability. Psy is bridging the utility gap between Proof of Work and Proof of Stake chains, empowering developers to build hyper-scalable web3 applications, to provide a credible alternative to a centralized internet controlled by a handful of tech monopolies.
