TLDR:

  • Ether.fi Cash processes 28,000 daily spend transactions averaging $2 million in volume, doubling every two months. 
  • The migration covers 70,000 active cards, 300,000 accounts, and millions in user TVL moving to OP Mainnet. 
  • OP Stack processed 3.6 billion transactions in H2 2025, accounting for 13% of all global crypto transactions. 
  • ether.fi users will access OP token rewards, 3%+ cashback, travel perks, and free metal cards post-migration.

Ether.fi is migrating its flagship Cash product to Optimism’s OP Mainnet. The move covers roughly 70,000 active cards and 300,000 accounts.

Millions in user TVL will also transfer to the new network. The migration is part of a long-term OP Enterprise partnership.

Together, the teams aim to accelerate on-chain global payments. This positions OP Mainnet as a leading destination for payment activity in the broader crypto ecosystem.

Ether.fi Cash Brings Scale and Speed to OP Mainnet

Ether.fi Cash is a non-custodial digital banking product combining a credit card with a savings account. It runs DeFi protocols under the hood to generate yield for users.

The product allows movement between fiat and crypto while offering cashback and global spending. Users manage their assets without giving up custody.

Since launching last year, the product has grown quickly. Each day, the app processes 2,000 internal swaps and 28,000 spend transactions.

Daily spend volume averages around $2 million. These numbers have roughly doubled every two months since launch.

The migration to OP Mainnet will expand liquidity access for users making swaps. They will also gain access to more assets for deposits and withdrawals.

Gas fees and network costs for card transactions will be covered by ether.fi. More cashback rewards are also planned as part of the move.

For end users, the transition is designed to be seamless. Optimism has managed major ecosystem migrations before and has a structured process in place. Users should not experience disruption during the switch to the new network.

What the OP Enterprise Partnership Means for Ether.fi

As an OP Enterprise customer, Ether.fi gains access to several infrastructure benefits. These include established liquidity, a dedicated account manager, and priority access to new features. The same codebase works across all OP Stack chains, which reduces development overhead.

The OP Stack processed 3.6 billion transactions in the second half of 2025. That represented 13 percent of all crypto transactions during that period. OP Mainnet serves as a hub for DeFi activity and a launchpad for consumer apps.

As part of the integration, ether.fi users will receive access to OP token rewards. Ongoing reward programs include 3% or more cashback, in-app campaigns, travel discounts, and free metal cards. Membership tiers and lounge access are also part of the package.

ether.fi sees blockchain infrastructure as a way to expand globally at a lower cost than traditional fintech. Operating non-custodially allows the platform to scale without the overhead traditional banks carry.

The partnership with Optimism supports that model with enterprise-grade tools and network depth.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 25 basis points, and Powell said this was a risk management cut

PANews reported on September 18th, according to the Securities Times, that at 2:00 AM Beijing time on September 18th, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point interest rate cut, lowering the federal funds rate from 4.25%-4.50% to 4.00%-4.25%, in line with market expectations. The Fed's interest rate announcement triggered a sharp market reaction, with the three major US stock indices rising briefly before quickly plunging. The US dollar index plummeted, briefly hitting a new low since 2025, before rebounding sharply, turning a decline into an upward trend. The sharp market volatility was closely tied to the subsequent monetary policy press conference held by Federal Reserve Chairman Powell. He stated that the 50 basis point rate cut lacked broad support and that there was no need for a swift adjustment. Today's move could be viewed as a risk-management cut, suggesting the Fed will not enter a sustained cycle of rate cuts. Powell reiterated the Fed's unwavering commitment to maintaining its independence. Market participants are currently unaware of the risks to the Fed's independence. The latest published interest rate dot plot shows that the median expectation of Fed officials is to cut interest rates twice more this year (by 25 basis points each), one more than predicted in June this year. At the same time, Fed officials expect that after three rate cuts this year, there will be another 25 basis point cut in 2026 and 2027.

SEC Approves Generic Listing Standards for Crypto ETFs

SEC Approves Generic Listing Standards for Crypto ETFs

In a bombshell filing, the SEC is prepared to allow generic listing standards for crypto ETFs. This would permit ETF listings without a specific case-by-case approval process. The filing’s language rests on cryptoassets that are commodities, not securities. However, the Commission is reclassifying many such assets, theoretically enabling an XRP ETF alongside many other new products. Why Generic Listing Standards Matter The SEC has been tacitly approving new crypto ETFs like XRP and DOGE-based products, but there hasn’t been an unambiguously clear signal of greater acceptance. Huge waves of altcoin ETF filings keep reaching the Commission, but there hasn’t been a corresponding show of confidence. Until today, that is, as the SEC just took a sweeping measure to approve generic listing standards for crypto ETFs: “[Several leading exchanges] filed with the SEC proposed rule changes to adopt generic listing standards for Commodity-Based Trust Shares. Each of the foregoing proposed rule changes… were subject to notice and comment. This order approves the Proposals on an accelerated basis,” the SEC’s filing claimed. The proposals came from the Nasdaq, CBOE, and NYSE Arca, which all the ETF issuers have been using to funnel their proposals. In other words, this decision on generic listing standards could genuinely transform crypto ETF approvals. A New Era for Crypto ETFs Specifically, these new standards would allow issuers to tailor-make compliant crypto ETF proposals. If these filings meet all the Commission’s criteria, the underlying ETFs could trade on the market without direct SEC approval. This would remove a huge bottleneck in the coveted ETF creation process. “By approving these generic listing standards, we are ensuring that our capital markets remain the best place in the world to engage in the cutting-edge innovation of digital assets. This approval helps to maximize investor choice and foster innovation by streamlining the listing process,” SEC Chair Paul Atkins claimed in a press release. The SEC has already been working on a streamlined approval process for crypto ETFs, but these generic listing standards could accomplish the task. This rule change would rely on considering tokens as commodities instead of securities, but federal regulators have been reclassifying assets like XRP. If these standards work as advertised, ETFs based on XRP, Solana, and many other cryptos could be coming very soon. This quiet announcement may have huge implications.
