Canary Capital has filed with the SEC to launch a U.S. Tron (TRX) ETF that would include staking benefits, allowing investors to earn extra yield. This proposal is part of a broader trend, with Canary also seeking approval for ETFs based on assets like XRP, Solana, and Sui. The fund would aim to provide exposure to Tron’s price, but the SEC has yet to approve staking in crypto ETFs. This move follows the success of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs, which have attracted significant institutional interest.

During the week of April 14–18, 2025, U.S. Bitcoin spot ETFs recorded a modest net inflow of $13.7 million, entirely from non-GBTC products, as GBTC saw no activity. Since inception, total net inflows have reached $35.5 billion, with non-GBTC ETFs contributing $58.3 billion and GBTC experiencing $22.8 billion in outflows.

Weekly highlight — Trump wants to fire Powell? 

US president Donald Trump is actively considering firing Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, following Trump's public criticism of Powell for not moving quickly enough to reduce interest rates. National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett confirmed that the administration is examining this option, suggesting that Powell's actions have politically favored Democrats. Hassett argued that the Federal Reserve's decision to raise interest rates shortly after Trump took office was intended to undermine the economic impact of the tax cuts implemented during his administration, which were deemed inflationary. He further criticized the Fed for not addressing inflation concerns stemming from federal spending under President Biden, implying a lack of accountability.

During a recent press conference, Trump conveyed his dissatisfaction with Powell, asserting that if he wanted to remove him, it could happen "real fast." While he did not explicitly state his intention to dismiss Powell, his remarks highlighted the growing tensions between the White House and the Federal Reserve regarding monetary policy. Hassett defended Trump's frustrations, advocating for a focus on economic policy rather than interpersonal conflicts. This situation underscores the complex dynamics between the executive branch and the central bank, as Trump navigates economic challenges leading up to the next election.

Weekly crypto highlight — XRP ETF coming

HashKey Capital has officially launched the HashKey XRP Tracker Fund, marking the first investment fund in Asia designed specifically to track the performance of XRP, the digital asset integral to Ripple's global payment ecosystem. This fund is aimed at professional investors and offers a unique opportunity to gain exposure to XRP without the complexities of direct asset management. Investors can subscribe through cash and in-kind options, with the fund providing monthly liquidity.

Ripple, as an early backer of the fund, is looking to enhance its strategic partnership with HashKey Capital, which already manages Hong Kong–listed spot ETFs for Bitcoin and Ethereum. This collaboration not only solidifies Ripple's presence in the Asian market, but also opens avenues for future financial products, such as the potential tokenization of a money market fund on the XRP Ledger. Fiona Murray, Ripple's Managing Director for the Asia-Pacific region, highlighted that this partnership is part of a broader strategy to introduce more regulated cryptocurrency products for institutional investors in the region, aiming to foster a more robust crypto landscape in Asia.

MeshChain Ai (MCC) is a decentralized cloud network leveraging idle computing power for AI workloads, offering cost-efficiency, security, and scalability.

Cloud computing has been a game changer in many sectors, due to its cost savings, enhanced data security and the capacity to access data from anywhere on the globe.

However, most traditional cloud computing services are available in highly centralized data centers where control remains in the hands of a few. Such traditional infrastructure faces various challenges, such as single points of failure, cost inefficiency and threats to data privacy.

Against this backdrop, MeshChain Ai was created to leverage decentralization through 

 combined with AI to distribute computing power across the globe.

Let’s look at the way MeshChain is unlocking decentralized computing power to offer users higher latency, cost efficiency and enhanced data privacy.

 is a decentralized cloud computing network designed to provide AI workloads with a cost-efficient, secure and scalable infrastructure for their computing needs. 

With the high demand for AI services, most developers face the limitations of high costs and limited availability of computing resources to train AI models and perform computer-intensive tasks.

The project uses unused computer resources, such as idle CPUs, GPUs and RAM, to create a distributed platform that AI enthusiasts can then leverage without investing in costly infrastructure necessary for AI development.

Computing resource providers are incentivized to use MCC, the native token for the MeshChain ecosystem. Through these incentives, MeshChain can effectively fuel AI innovation by promoting a decentralized and cost-efficient cloud computing network.

In order to process AI workloads quickly and efficiently, MeshChain’s architecture is decentralized and powered by blockchain technology for transparency, security and scalability. Let’s take a deeper look at how MeshChain’s ecosystem operates.

To operate, MeshChain relies on a decentralized physical infrastructure network of computer nodes that act as resource providers on the platform. Its key components are as follows.

The system's core, the MeshChain Orchestrator, manages AI workloads between the various players. Once an Orchestrator receives a workload from an AI Engineer, it breaks it down into smaller chunks through a feature called Automatic Parallelization, and distributes these to Worker Nodes to process concurrently.

Automatic Personalization, an innovative feature of the platform, breaks down large AI workloads into smaller, manageable chunks known as workload shards. Worker Nodes process these shards in parallel to ensure fair and optimal use of available resources.

Apart from overseeing the system's workflow, the Orchestrator calculates the rewards for node providers once a task is completed.

Worker Nodes process workloads received from the Orchestrator. These nodes are equipped with computational resources to quickly process the AI requests. Once done, the Worker Nodes pass the intermediate results to Validator Nodes for processing.

Validator Nodes check the accuracy and integrity of the results generated by the Worker Nodes. This verification process is crucial to maintaining network trust.

Once the Validator Nodes have completed the verification, the outputs are passed to the MeshChain Aggregators. Then, they’re compiled and consolidated and passed on to the engineer who sent in the request. The Aggregator also passes the final output to the Orchestrator to facilitate the calculation and distribution of rewards.

A Resource Provider is a person who offers their computer resources to facilitate the processing of AI workloads on MeshChain.

You can become a resource provider on MeshChain in the following ways:

Some of the benefits of being a resource provider on MeshChain network include:

A Resource Consumer is an AI engineer or business who leverages MeshChain’s network to meet their AI workload needs. By being a Resource Consumer, you can send your AI requests, such as AI training and inferences, to the MeshChain network. In this way, you benefit from cost-efficient and secure AI development while also earning rewards for consuming the output from the network.

MCC is the native token of the MeshChain Ai network. It fuels all the transactions on the platform, ensuring a balanced flow between providers and consumers, as follows:

MCC has a maximum supply of 1 billion tokens, allocated as follows:

As of Mar 12, 2025, MCC’s price is $0.29, with a 24-hour trading volume of about $1.1 million.

MeshChain Ai is redefining the landscape of AI computing by shifting from centralized cloud infrastructure to a decentralized, distributed network. By harnessing idle computing resources across the globe, MCC provides a more scalable, cost-effective and censorship-resistant solution for AI model training and inference.

With enhanced security, lower operational costs and faster processing speeds, MCC enables developers, enterprises and AI enthusiasts to deploy AI workloads more efficiently than ever. As the demand for AI-powered applications grows, decentralized computing offers a future-proof alternative that empowers users with greater control and privacy over their data.

MCC represents the next evolution of AI computing, bringing together decentralization, performance and accessibility to drive the future of artificial intelligence.
