The crypto ETF sector is diversifying past Bitcoin and Ether as Grayscale&amp;rsquo;s Zcash ETF crosses $1 billion in 30 days and the SEC expands generic listing standards to 15 tokens.

The move comes as federal stablecoin legislation provides clearer institutional on-ramps, while Arbitrum&amp;rsquo;s ARB token surged 25% on Robinhood Chain fees generating roughly $192K daily for the DAO. Separately, Ethena Pay launched a neobank offering 6% savings and 5% cashback, B2B stablecoin payment flows are revealed to be far smaller than headline figures at $390B, and Strategy sold 7,000 BTC at $60K-$65K to fund dividends before buying back near $80K.</description></item></channel></rss>
