Jupiter Launches Native Stablecoin JupUSD, Backed by BlackRock‑Linked Assets
News Brief
Jupiter has launched its native stablecoin, JupUSD, marking another milestone in the convergence of institutional‑grade assets and DeFi.

Jupiter has launched its native stablecoin, JupUSD, marking another milestone in the convergence of institutional‑grade assets and DeFi.
Key Details
- Stablecoin: JupUSD
- Issuer: Jupiter
- Backing:
- ~90% composed of BlackRock‑linked tokenized funds and Ethena’s USDtb
- Focus: Institutional‑quality reserves and on‑chain transparency
The structure signals a deliberate move away from purely crypto‑native collateral toward regulated, real‑world asset exposure.
Why This Matters
- Institutional credibility: BlackRock‑associated assets bring brand trust and compliance expectations
- Yield‑aware backing: USDtb is designed to generate returns from high‑quality collateral
- DeFi‑native utility: JupUSD can be used directly across trading, lending, and liquidity venues
This blend narrows the gap between traditional finance and on‑chain markets.
What It Signals for Stablecoins
- Stablecoins are evolving from payment tools into capital‑efficient financial instruments
- Issuers are competing on reserve quality, transparency, and governance
- Institutional players are increasingly comfortable anchoring DeFi liquidity
This is part of a broader shift toward tokenized cash management on public blockchains.
Risks and Considerations
- Concentration risk in reserve composition
- Dependence on off‑chain custodians and issuers
- Regulatory treatment of RWA‑backed stablecoins remains fluid
As always, backing quality matters—but so does access and redemption clarity.
Bottom Line
Jupiter’s launch of JupUSD, backed largely by BlackRock‑linked assets and Ethena’s USDtb, underscores how quickly institutional‑grade stablecoins are becoming foundational to DeFi. The line between TradFi and crypto cash is continuing to blur.

The post Edges higher ahead of BoC-Fed policy outcome appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. USD/CAD gains marginally to near 1.3760 ahead of monetary policy announcements by the Fed and the BoC. Both the Fed and the BoC are expected to lower interest rates. USD/CAD forms a Head and Shoulder chart pattern. The USD/CAD pair ticks up to near 1.3760 during the late European session on Wednesday. The Loonie pair gains marginally ahead of monetary policy outcomes by the Bank of Canada (BoC) and the Federal Reserve (Fed) during New York trading hours. Both the BoC and the Fed are expected to cut interest rates amid mounting labor market conditions in their respective economies. Inflationary pressures in the Canadian economy have cooled down, emerging as another reason behind the BoC’s dovish expectations. However, the Fed is expected to start the monetary-easing campaign despite the United States (US) inflation remaining higher. Investors will closely monitor press conferences from both Fed Chair Jerome Powell and BoC Governor Tiff Macklem to get cues about whether there will be more interest rate cuts in the remainder of the year. According to analysts from Barclays, the Fed’s latest median projections for interest rates are likely to call for three interest rate cuts by 2025. Ahead of the Fed’s monetary policy, the US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback’s value against six major currencies, holds onto Tuesday’s losses near 96.60.
