After last week's beginning push down in the US Dollar, bringing in some fresh air for Forex majors, the rest of the week reversed the action. The US dollar recovered astonishingly and broke above the 99.00 Psychological level for the first time since the June-end drop in the Dollar Index. Major pairs have largely corrected after this move, with EUR/USD going from 1.18 to currently trading below 1.15. Even the Swissie, which was close to record highs against the USD, is now being sold off. Today's FOMC Meeting will be essential for determining the future course of action, particularly as stronger GDP and Employment Data prompt the Fed to maintain its rates at the curre…

The US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has acknowledged a Nasdaq filing proposing an amendment to BlackRock iShares Ethereum Trust (ETHA). This proposal seeks to enable the ETF to stake its Ethereum holdings, allowing it to participate in the ETH proof-of-stake consensus mechanism and potentially earn staking rewards. What Happens When Institutional Staking Goes Mainstream? BlackRock just received regulatory acknowledgment to include staking in its Spot Ethereum ETF. As mentioned by Çağrı Yaşar on X, acknowledging the filing isn’t a minor regulatory checkbox. It’s the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) handing institutions a key, and not just to ETH pri…

Winsome Resources (ASX: WR1) is walking away from its proposed acquisition of the Renard diamond mine, a deal that would have fast-tracked the development of its flagship Adina lithium project in Quebec. In April 2024, the Australian lithium developer entered into an option agreement with Canada’s Stornoway Diamonds to acquire the past-producing diamond mine in the James Bay region, which operated for nearly a decade until market conditions forced its shutdown in late 2023. The plan for Winsome was to repurpose the existing mine infrastructure at Renard for processing ore from its Adina project, which would cost far less than developing its own lithium processing …

Most Read: Microsoft (MSFT) Earnings Preview: AI, Azure, and Outlook USD/CAD is eyeing its 5th consecutive day of gains, but with two Central Bank meetings to navigate will such a move materialize? Bank of Canada (BoC) Keep Rates on Hold The Bank of Canada kept its interest rate steady at 2.75% in July 2025, as expected. This marks the third hold after cutting rates by 2.25 percentage points over seven decisions.

Markets have just received the data for both ADP Private Employment (104K vs 78K estimate) and the Annualized US GDP Data (3% vs 2.4% exp), with both showing strong signs for the largest Economy yet again. Equity Markets have been moving choppy since the weekly gap at the open, and as the US Dollar is making fresh new highs, it is a good time to look at US Treasury Bonds. These are not the most commonly traded asset class by Retail Traders but they still represent a gigantic volume of financial transactions daily, particularly US Treasuries. Bonds have been struggling to find strong demand despite the June war-fears and the few bouts of flight-to-safety that markets ha…

US President Donald Trump’s executive order to fast-track deep-sea mining has reignited fierce global debate over the future of ocean resources, international law and environmental oversight. Framed as a bid to reduce US reliance on China for critical minerals, such as nickel and copper, the move has instead sparked concerns over ecological damage and international stability. Signed in April, Trump’s directive leverages the US Deep Seabed Hard Mineral Resources Act to bypass international regulatory bodies and directly authorize seabed mining operations, including in international waters. This path circumvents the United Nations’ International Seabed Authority (I…

Bitcoin remains trapped in a tight consolidation range that began over two weeks ago, fueling expectations of an imminent breakout or breakdown. The lack of decisive movement has created a state of market indecision, with neither bulls nor bears taking full control. Price continues to hover between key support and resistance levels, showing no strong signs of accumulation or distribution. According to new data from CryptoQuant, the Bitcoin Heat Macro Phase—a metric that reflects the overall temperature of the market—currently sits at a neutral level. This indicates that market conditions are balanced, with no clear dominance from buyers or sellers. Profit-taking remains…

British fintech and neobank Revolut is considering acquiring a US bank to accelerate its entry into the American market. According to a recent report by The Financial Times, published on 30 July 2025, Revolut is eyeing the acquisition of a nationally chartered bank that already holds a license. If this goes through, Revolut will be able to skip the often-lengthy procedure of acquiring a banking license from scratch. By shortening the process of securing an independent banking charter, Revolut will be able to simplify its lending capabilities in the American market. The report also indicates that the UK-based neobank is considering applying for its own US banking license…

On November 16, Chileans will head to the polls to elect their next president, who will govern until 2030 and, in doing so, set the course for the country’s most important economic engine: its mining sector. At stake is the future of Codelco, the state-owned copper giant that helped build modern Chile but is now drowning in debt, stuck with aging infrastructure and recovering from years of production declines. Once a source of national pride, Codelco has been teetering on the edge of an industrial crisis. As of December last year, the company’s debt has ballooned to over $20 billion and production was slowly edging higher after hitting a 25-year low in 2022. …

What started as a suspicion of cheating ended with an arrest for XRP/USD theft. Nancy Jones, widow of country icon George Jones, says her longtime partner, Kirk West, stole more than $17 million in XRP from her Tennessee home. Dang, you never want to see that happen to your XRP. RIP. Reportedly, with doubts about West’s loyalty growing, Jones asked her granddaughter to check on her money, only to find that a Ledger wallet and $400,000 in cash were gone. That wallet held over 5.5 million XRP tokens. West was picked up by police at Nashville International Airport on July 24, just as Franklin police opened their investigation.

Twenty One Capital, a corporate Bitcoin treasury seeking public listing on the US stock exchange, has announced that they’re increasing their holdings by 5,800 Bitcoins. That puts their overall holdings at ~$5.1B, making them the third largest corporate Bitcoin holder. Currently, only Strategy and Mara Holdings own more Bitcoin at 628,791BTC and 50,000BTC respectively. This is fantastic news if you’re a long-term Bitcoin investor. It proves that Bitcoin is being taken seriously in the corporate world. But Bitcoin is quite pricey now, and in that case, it’s worth taking a look at Bitcoin Hyper ($HYPER), a new crypto presale. The project wants to upgrade the Bitcoin block…

Ethereum has entered a volatile and decisive phase following weeks of strong buying pressure and rapid price appreciation. After pushing above $3,800, ETH is now facing resistance, with bulls stepping in to defend key lower demand zones.

Adding to the momentum, new data from Arkham reveals that BlackRock purchased over four times more Ethereum than Bitcoin last week. This shift marks a significant moment for institutional involvement in Ethereum and signals growing confidence in its long-term potential. Analysts across the industry are beginning to …

Strategy (previously MicroStrategy) just raised another monstrous $2.52 billion through its “Stretch” IPO to stack another 21,021 BTC. That’s now a total of 628,791 BTC sitting on its corporate books. The STRC preferred shares start trading on Nasdaq today, and it’s the biggest U.S. IPO of 2025.

Overview: Ahead of an important North American session, the US dollar has a slightly softer tone in narrow ranges against the G10 currencies. The Canadian and Australian dollars are laggards, with small losses. The yen and sterling are the strongest with around 0.2-0.3% gains.

Emerging market currencies are mixed, most Asia Pacific currencies are lower, while central European currencies are firmer. The Mexican peso is among the strongest, though that honor goes to the South Korean won, which is up about…

According to recent reports, XRP slid about 15% after peaking at $3.66 on July 18, wiping out roughly $2.4 billion in open futures positions. That sharp drop has traders debating whether to hunker down or scoop up XRP near the $2.60 mark. Rally Driven By Big Bets XRP’s surge from $2.17 on July 1 to $3.66 by July 18 was powered by a surge in open interest that peaked at $11.2 billion in dollar terms. That means a lot of traders had large positions riding the upswing. Since then, open interest has fallen to $8.8 billion, a 20% drop in US dollar value. In XRP units, contracts fell 10% to 2.80 billion. Liquidations of roughly $325 million over the two weeks ending July 25 …
