In a post reposted by Bloomberg analyst James Seyfart on X, it was pointed out that Circle did indeed list USDT running as a risk for Circle's business in the S-1 document. The screenshot shared in the post shows that Circle wrote in the S-1 document: "Negative developments related to USDT, or actual or perceived instability of USDT, may cause other stablecoins (including stablecoins issued by Circle) to lose trust. Temporary price misalignments in the secondary market or a comprehensive run on USDT may lead to sustained redemption demand, runs, or similar price misalignments for Circle stablecoins in the secondary market. Although we have never encountered situations where we cannot meet customer minting or redemption requests when other stablecoins experience such price misalignments, the volatility of inflows and outflows, as well as the demand for minting or redeeming, may be so strong that we may encounter operational difficulties in meeting such demands

Odaily Planet Daily News: Synthetix founder Kain recently stated in an article that the Ethereum mainnet is facing economic pressure from a sharp decrease in gas fees and ETH destruction due to L2 expansion diversion trading activities and the introduction of Blob by EIP-4844, which reduces data availability costs. Kain believes that the rise of L2 has intercepted the revenue originally belonging to the mainnet, and the future shift towards Alt DA solutions such as Celestia is more likely to further weaken the profitability of the Ethereum mainnet. To solve this problem, he proposed that in the short term, L2 can be fed back to the mainnet through official L2 or rental mechanisms, while in the long term, new demands such as real asset tokenization need to be relied upon to increase the overall usage rate of L1/L2. He emphasized that the Ethereum community has advantages in coordination, but should decisively abandon unrelated projects and focus resources on application layer breakthroughs to cope with the competitive pressure from L2 and other data availability solutions.
