According to official announcements, Reality, Bitget’s licensed real-world asset (RWA) issuance platform, has announced a deepened partnership with U.S. audit firm The Network Firm. Under the upgraded collaboration, The Network Firm will deliver daily Proof of Reserves (PoR) audit reports for U.S. stock rTokens issued by Reality, adhering to attestation standards set by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). The audits are designed to confirm that every issued rToken matches the corresponding stock or ETF asset held in the custody account. The underlying stocks and ETFs remain custodied by Alpaca Securities LLC, a U.S. broker-dealer registered with FINRA and protected by SIPC, establishing a transparent, tripartite independent framework for issuance, verification, and custody. Reality’s U.S. stock rTokens now support 634 tokenized stocks and ETFs, and are deeply integrated into the Bitget ecosystem, usable in core scenarios including unified account margin, staking, and lending. Prior data indicates that the assets under management (AUM) of Bitget’s stock rTokens surpassed $100 million within one month of launch.

CryptoRank released a report analyzing 1,539 tokens that once ranked in the top 100 of the cryptocurrency market by capitalization, finding that 71.9% of them have been classified as "operationally dead".

Data indicates that roughly 62% of top 100 tokens become inactive within five years, with their mortality rate projected to hit 84.7% after a decade, while the median lifespan of such tokens is just 2 years and 4 months.

CryptoQuant analyst Moreno noted in a post that USDT liquidity is experiencing one of the most severe contraction phases in its history. The 60-day change in USDT’s market capitalization has fallen by approximately $40 billion, approaching its most negative level on record. Meanwhile, the liquidity contraction is accelerating: USDT supply has shrunk by around $870 million over the past 11 days, signaling this is not merely a lagged effect from prior redemptions. Stablecoins serve as the crypto market’s most direct source of available liquidity. Sustained USDT expansion typically coincides with stronger Bitcoin (BTC) price performance, while prolonged contraction phases often align with weak demand, market pullbacks, and declining risk appetite. That said, the correlation between USDT flows and BTC prices does not confirm a direct causal relationship—both may be jointly driven by risk aversion, with redemption pressure and spot sell-offs occurring simultaneously. The current BTC decline is not an isolated event; it is unfolding against the backdrop of shrinking liquidity from one of the crypto market’s primary sources, which also explains why recent market rebounds have failed to sustain. To improve the market environment, we need to see USDT’s 60-day market cap change stabilize, a slowdown in daily supply contraction, and a return to an expansion phase.
