According to BeInCrypto, a field research report recently released by the Bank of Italy shows that stablecoins do not possess a systemic cost advantage in cross-border remittances. Researchers tested USDC transfers of $200 through 10 actual remittance corridors, covering routes between Italy and Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, the UAE, and Japan, with total fees ranging from 0.3% to nearly 9%, showing a significant disparity. The study found that on-chain transfers themselves accounted for an average of only 0.4% of the total cost; what truly drove up fees were steps still reliant on banks and exchanges, such as funding, currency conversion, and withdrawal. Taking the UAE-to-Italy corridor as an example, where bank transfers were unavailable and credit card funding was forced, fees alone reached as high as 3.8%. Meanwhile, transfer speeds also differed significantly due to variations in destination payment infrastructure. Instant payment systems like Brazil's Pix could complete settlement within 20 minutes, while South Africa required 1 to 2 business days, no different from traditional bank wire transfers. The report pointed out that stablecoins currently still heavily rely on the banking system they attempt to replace, and the narrative that "stablecoins are quietly replacing traditional payment rails" remains unsubstantiated.

Odaily News: Peer-to-peer cryptocurrency trading platform NoOnes announced that it will begin gradually winding down operations after running for over three years. The company stated that it had been continuously seeking to resolve and lift the sanctions imposed on NoOnes, but ultimately failed. The sanctions caused the platform to lose key partners, and blockchain monitoring firms also flagged transactions associated with NoOnes as high-risk, making it increasingly difficult for the platform to continue normal operations. According to the plan, the business contraction began on August 17, and the P2P marketplace will close at 23:59 UTC on August 21. Services such as Swap, NoOnes Visa, fiat withdrawals, the gift card store, and the Bitcoin Lightning Network will also be discontinued progressively. After that, the platform will only support withdrawals, and users will still be able to log in, view balances, and withdraw remaining assets. The company advises users to complete asset withdrawals as soon as possible, no later than August 23. Previously, on January 26, 2025, NoOnes revealed that the platform had suffered a major security breach earlier that month, resulting in losses of approximately $8 million in crypto assets. CEO Ray Youssef confirmed the news after on-chain detective ZachXBT disclosed the hacking incident on his Telegram channel.
