Shares swung lower after an early pre-market rally of 8%. USDC&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/USDC-USD\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">(USDC-USD)<\/a>&nbsp;stablecoin in circulation grew 28% vs. last year to $77B, and on-chain transaction volume surged 263% to $21.5T for the quarter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside earnings, Circle announced a $222M presale of its ARC token at a $3B fully diluted valuation, with backers including a16z, BlackRock&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/BLK\" class=\"\">(BLK)<\/a>, ARK Invest, and Apollo&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/APO\" class=\"\">(APO)<\/a>, among others. The company also unveiled the Circle Agent Stack, an AI-agent infrastructure suite enabling autonomous agents to hold and transact USDC across blockchains,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20260511078086\/en\/Circle-Launches-AI-Infrastructure-to-Power-the-Agentic-Economy\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">per a separate release<\/a>. Together the ARC token raise and the Agent Stack position Circle as both a stablecoin operator and a protocol-layer infrastructure company, broadening its capital formation and revenue surface well beyond reserve income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>STRATEGY RESUMES BITCOIN BUYING:&nbsp;<\/strong>Strategy&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/MSTR\" class=\"\">(MSTR)<\/a>&nbsp;purchased 535 bitcoin&nbsp;<a class=\"\" href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/BTC-USD\">(BTC-USD)<\/a>&nbsp;for approximately $43M at roughly $80,340 per coin,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.sec.gov\/Archives\/edgar\/data\/1050446\/000119312526215754\/mstr-20260504.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">resuming its weekly buying program after a one-week pause and lifting total holdings to 818,869 bitcoin<\/a>. The week&#8217;s purchase is smaller than prior tranches, yet it follows commentary from executive chairman Michael Saylor at the Q1 earnings call, where he drew attention by stating Strategy could selectively sell bitcoin to fund preferred dividends. The STRC dividend vote adds a new structural variable for equity holders tracking whether the treasury strategy&#8217;s capital demands could create periodic sell pressure on the underlying asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>ETHER TREASURY DISCLOSURES:<\/strong>&nbsp;Bitmine Immersion Technologies&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/BMNR\" class=\"\">(BMNR)<\/a>&nbsp;disclosed holdings of 5,206,790 ether&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/ETH-USD\" class=\"\">(ETH-USD)<\/a>, 201 bitcoin, $775M in cash, and $288M in equity stakes, for combined holdings of $13.4B,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/bitmine-immersion-technologies-bmnr-announces-eth-holdings-reach-5-21-million-tokens-and-total-holdings-of-13-4-billion-302453830.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">per a company press release<\/a>. At roughly $2,366 per ether, the disclosure confirms Bitmine as the largest public accumulator of ether on a token-count basis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Galaxy Digital&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/GLXY\" class=\"\">(GLXY)<\/a>&nbsp;and SharpLink&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/SBET\" class=\"\">(SBET)<\/a>&nbsp;signed a non-binding MOU to form the Galaxy SharpLink Onchain Yield Fund LP, targeting $125M in commitments, with $100M sourced from SharpLink&#8217;s staked ether treasury and $25M from Galaxy, with Galaxy serving as investment manager deploying capital across DeFi protocols,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.prnewswire.com\/news-releases\/galaxy-and-sharplink-plan-to-launch-first-of-its-kind-institutional-onchain-yield-fund-302708295.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">per a press release<\/a>. SharpLink Q1 revenue came in at $12.06M, below the $14.60M consensus,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/news-release\/2026\/05\/11\/3291851\/0\/en\/sharplink-reports-first-quarter-2026-financial-and-operating-.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">as reported in their earnings release<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CLARITY ACT HEADS TO MARKUP:&nbsp;<\/strong>The CLARITY Act is scheduled for a Senate Banking Committee markup on May 14, with Galaxy Digital research identifying seven undecided Democrats on the committee as pivotal to whether the crypto market-structure bill clears committee,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ccn.com\/news\/crypto\/clarity-act-senate-democrats-crypto-bill\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">per CCN<\/a>. The bill would establish a federal framework for classifying digital assets and assigning oversight jurisdiction between the SEC and CFTC, with direct implications for registered intermediaries including Coinbase&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/COIN\" class=\"\">(COIN)<\/a>. A successful markup vote would represent the Senate&#8217;s most substantive step on crypto market structure, following the CLARITY Act&#8217;s House passage in July 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>STABLECOIN PAYMENTS EXPANSION:&nbsp;<\/strong>Corpay&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thefly.com\/CPAY\" class=\"\">(CPAY)<\/a>&nbsp;announced a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.businesswire.com\/news\/home\/20260511711546\/en\/Corpay-Partners-With-BVNK-To-Add-Stablecoin-Wallets-for-Global-Customers\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">partnership with stablecoin infrastructure platform BVNK<\/a>&nbsp;to add stablecoin wallets and 24\/7 settlement across its global corporate payments customer base, adding crypto-native settlement to a $12B+ payments corridor, per a company press release. The integration extends stablecoin rails into a legacy cross-border payments network that serves multinationals, a category where banks and card networks have historically dominated settlement infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PRICE ACTION:<\/strong>&nbsp;As of time of writing, bitcoin was trading at $80,805.28, while ether was trading at $2,313.02,&nbsp;<a
