The post 66 Crypto Orgs Call on Trump for Tax Clarity appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes 66 organizations including Coinbase, Uniswap Foundation, and Blockchain Association signed the Nov. 20 letter requesting Treasury publish rules treating staking rewards as self-created property taxed when sold. The coalition urged the Department of Justice to dismiss charges against Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm following Trump’s Oct. 23 pardon of Binance founder Changpeng Zhao. Letter demands align with recommendations from Trump’s own July 2025 Working Group Report on digital assets, requiring no congressional approval for implementation. 66 cryptocurrency organizations including Coinbase, Uniswap Foundation, and Blockchain Association delivered a letter to President Donald Trump on Nov. 20 demanding immediate federal agency action on tax clarity, temporary legal protections for DeFi developers, and dismissal of charges against Tornado Cash developer Roman Storm. The coalition outlined specific actions federal agencies can take without congressional approval, according to the letter. The Solana Policy Institute led the effort alongside major industry players including Block, Paradigm, Multicoin Capital, and the Crypto Council for Innovation.

Crypto Lending Hits $73.6B as DeFi Dominates Market

Crypto Lending Hits $73.6B as DeFi Dominates Market

The post Crypto Lending Hits $73.6B as DeFi Dominates Market appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Key Notes DeFi lending applications reached $40.99 billion in Q3 2025, growing 54.84% quarter-over-quarter and capturing 55.7% of the total crypto lending market. Tether maintained $14.6 billion in outstanding loans as of Sept.30, holding 59.91% of the centralized lending market tracked by Galaxy Research. The Oct.10 liquidation event wiped out more than $19 billion in futures positions but did not reflect systemic credit risk in the collateralized lending market. Crypto-collateralized lending reached an all-time high of $73.59 billion at the end of Q3 2025, according to Galaxy Research. The figure surpasses the previous peak of $69.37 billion from Q4 2021 by 6.09%, with onchain lending now holding 66.9% market share compared to 48.6% four years ago. The market expanded by $20.46 billion in Q3, representing 38.5% quarter-over-quarter growth, the report says. The move toward on-chain lending represents a structural shift from the 2021 cycle, which relied on uncollateralized credit and opaque lending practices. DeFi lending applications grew to $40.99 billion in Q3, expanding $14.52 billion quarter-over-quarter. Bitcoin BTC $90 175 24h volatility: 0.1% Market cap: $1.80 T Vol. 24h: $89.39 B served as a primary collateral asset across protocols. The 54.84% growth rate gave DeFi apps a 55.7% share of the total lending market. Within onchain borrowing, lending applications now account for more than 80% of activity, with CDP stablecoins (assets like DAI that are minted by locking up crypto as collateral) holding just 16%, according to the Galaxy report. Galaxy identified three primary factors driving DeFi lending expansion. Points farming and airdrop programs incentivize users to maintain borrows despite market volatility. Improved collateral assets such as Pendle Principal Tokens enable efficient looping strategies. Cryptocurrency price appreciation through Q3 allowed users to borrow more against existing collateral. The Aave [NC] DeFi lending app captured significant market share on a network…
