Tech　　UN Sees Ripple & Stellar as Future Financial Rails　　UN Digital Finance Vision Puts Ripple & Stellar at the Core of a New Interoperable Global Payment System　　The resurfacing of a United Nations–linked webinar has renewed discussion across the crypto sector, after it appeared to position Ripple and Stellar within a broader vision for the future of global payments.　　Hosted by the United Nations Capital Development Fund and recently brought back into light by crypto researcher SMQKE, the what officials described as an open and regulated payment internetwork.　　Notably, the concept centers on connecting banks, fintechs, mobile money providers, card networks, and blockchain systems into a single interoperable financial ecosystem.　　What drew the most attention was the inclusion of Ripple and Stellar in a global payments architecture diagram alongside established players such as SWIFT, Visa, and Mastercard.　　Rather than presenting blockchain as a replacement for traditional finance, the framework , positioning digital asset networks as complementary layers that can integrate with existing financial infrastructure.　　How Tokenized Compliance Fits into the Picture　　A major theme in the webinar was tokenized compliance, referring to the idea of embedding regulatory rules directly into programmable payment systems.　　In this model, identity checks, transaction monitoring, and settlement conditions can be automated on-chain, potentially reducing

Solana Price Prediction: SOL Faces $125 Test After Breakout

Tech　　Solana Price Prediction: SOL Faces $125 Test After Breakout　　Solana is trading between two clear chart signals, with one setup showing weak corrective rallies and another pointing to a possible breakout retest. SOL needs to hold the $84 to $85 area and clear nearby resistance before the $125 target becomes stronger.　　Solana Price Struggles as SOL Rejects Corrective Rallies　　Solana traded near $84.68 on the 4 hour chart after another rejection from a short term recovery move. The chart shared by More Crypto Online on X shows SOL failing to hold above the nearby resistance zone around $87.　　The main issue is clear. SOL keeps bouncing, but each rally loses strength before price reaches the larger resistance near $95 to $96. That area acted as a major rejection zone earlier in May. As long as SOL stays below it, the recovery structure remains weak.　　SOL Corrective Rally Rejection Chart. Source:　　The nearest support sits around $82, marked by the red horizontal line. If Solana loses that level, the chart points back toward the main range support area between $77.96, $75.41, and $71.92. These levels match the 50%, 61.8%, and 78.6% Fibonacci retracement marks shown on the chart.　　The orange support zone matters because it has held previous

Tech　　Trump Fintech Order Reopens Fed Access Debate for Ripple & XRP　　Trumps Fintech Order Reopens the Fed Access Debate, Putting Ripple Back in Focus　　President Donald Trump‘s recent fintech executive has reopened a long-standing policy debate: who should have direct access to America’s core financial infrastructure？　　As highlighted by RippleXity, the is a review of the rules governing access to Federal Reserve payment systems such as Fedwire and FedNow. Today, those rails are largely limited to federally insured banks, meaning fintech and crypto firms must rely on partner banks to move money through the system indirectly.　　The order does not remove those restrictions. Instead, it instructs regulators, including the Federal Reserve, to reassess whether frameworks built for a traditional banking era still make sense in a financial system now defined by real-time payments, digital assets, and cross-border settlement demands.　　More importantly, this shift in tone is particularly relevant for companies like Ripple.　　Delving Deeper into Ripples Fed Ambitions　　Ripple has long focused on blockchain-based infrastructure for cross-border payments and settlement.　　In 2025, one of its regulated entities applied for a Federal Reserve Master Account, which if approved would allow direct access to central bank payment rails without relying on intermediary banks. The application remains under review, with no
