Most Read: Gold's (XAU/USD) Bull Run Just Getting Started? A Look at What History Says The U.S. stock market slipped on Wednesday, just a day after it had closed higher for three straight sessions. Traders seemed to be weighing what Fed Chair Jerome Powell said, and they also were waiting for more data later in the week. Investors are moving carefully, because the central bank tries to juggle inflation worries while a softening job market looms. Powell noted on Tuesday that asset prices look fairly over‑valued. His peers split on the policy path, and the chair kept stressing the tightrope the Fed must walk. The S&P 500 energy sub‑index rose about 2%, helped by ris…

Kraken is making headlines after donating $1 million to the Digital Freedom PAC, a group that supports pro-Trump causes. The company is also matching that donation with another $1 million to America First Digital. Arjun Sethi, the co-CEO of Kraken, says this isn’t just about politics. For him, it’s part of a wider fight to protect the core values behind crypto. That includes keeping control of your own funds, using privacy tools freely, and pushing back against regulations that seem unclear or unfair. Sethi Calls It a Battle for Financial Freedom Sethi explained the donation by pointing to what he sees as growing threats to crypto. He says some regulators are trying to s…

Seedify’s bridge has been hit by yet another major crypto exploit, and this time, it’s being tied to hackers from North Korea. Around $1.2 million in funds were drained after attackers found a way to mint fake SFUND tokens. Once they had those tokens in the system, they moved quickly, draining liquidity pools across different chains and swapping the fake assets for real ones. Most of the stolen value ended up on BNB Chain, making it tougher to follow. How the Attack Unfolded It started with a compromised private key. That was all the hackers needed to create unauthorized SFUND tokens, which they then pushed into liquidity pools on Ethereum, Arbitrum, and Base. After extr…

Gold at Record Highs XauUsd Technical Analysis Gold (XAUUSD) has surged an astonishing 44.4% in 2025, climbing from a year-end close of $2,624 to reach fresh record high at $3.791. For traders, investors, and central banks alike, the question is simple: what’s driving this runaway train, and what could bring it to a halt? What Is Spot Gold? Spot gold refers to the current price of one troy ounce of pure gold for immediate delivery (typically settled within two business days). Unlike futures contracts, it reflects real-time supply and demand in the physical and financial markets. What’s Driving Gold’s Meteoric Rise? Expectations of U.S. Federal Reserve Rate Cuts The a…

XRP can finally plug into DeFi, but will FXRP’s launch on Flare be enough to lift the token in October? Flare Network announced on Sept. 24 that its FAssets protocol is now live on mainnet, beginning with FXRP v1.2. The token is a one-to-one, over-collateralized representation of XRP that can be used in Flare’s decentralized finance stack. The rollout marks the first time XRP holders can tap into lending, liquidity, and, soon, liquid staking on Flare. If the pattern holds, the next resistance levels are near $3.20 to $3.30, possibly extending toward $3.60 to $3.80. Traders say a daily close above $2.95 would strengthen the bullish case. On the downside, a break …

The Group of Seven (G7) nations and the European Union are said to be discussing the idea of imposing price floors on rare earths to counter China’s dominance in the supply chain, Reuters reported on Wednesday. A price floor, if imposed, would provide greater incentives for producers of rare earths and related products in those regions, which for decades have relied on Chinese supply. Rare earths, which are difficult to extract and expensive to process, are key to many high-tech products, including cell phones, EVs and defense applications. China currently dominates the global mine supply of rare earths and controls over 90% of their total processing capacity. Thi…

Aave’s planned Aave v3 deployment could turn OKX’s X Layer from a niche L2 into a serious DeFi venue.

Log in to our mid-week North American Markets overview, where we examine the current themes in North America and provide an overview of indices and currency performances. We are now passed the feared and anticipated September FOMC meeting and since last week, the US Dollar has seen some whipsawing up-down action. While originally thought that a less-dovish-than expected Powell at the past week's FOMC press conference could invert the downward path in the greenback, comments made yesterday at a Rhode Island conference put-back more emphasis on a weakening job market. A dovish interpretation of this most recent turnaround has sent the dollar down, but in today's session…

Angola’s state diamond company Endiama has formally submitted a bid for a minority stake in De Beers, intensifying the scramble for influence over the world’s largest diamond producer as parent company Anglo American (LON: AAL) prepares to sell. The mineral resources ministry confirmed Wednesday that Endiama lodged a “fully financed offer.” Minister Diamantino Pedro Azevedo said the proposal aims to build a pan-African ownership model that prevents any single country from dominating De Beers while safeguarding its independence and competitiveness. “Our bid is designed to foster a partnership in which Botswana, Namibia, South Africa and Angola all participate mean…

Tether is looking to raise $20 billion from investors, which could push its valuation close to $500 billion, ultimately putting it in the same league as tech giants like OpenAI and SpaceX. According to a Bloomberg article published on 23 September 2025, Tether aims to sell around 3% of its stake through private deals, targeting between $15 billion and $20 billion. The deal entails fresh funding from new shares and not from existing investors cashing out. Cantor Fitzgerald, a major financial services firm based in New York City, is leading the advisory work. If successful, this deal would mark a huge milestone for Tether. Shedding light on this new development, Tether’s…

Today, the majority of crypto news is being dominated by BTC and ETH, which continue to flash red against USD as September lives up to its brutal reputation. BTC is currently trading near $112,000, slipping 1.4% on the day, while ETH USD holds just under $4,200, barely avoiding a deeper flush. The broader slump has dragged the total crypto market cap below $4 trillion, down between 1% and 4% in the past 24 hours alone. This dip is a structural unwind. (source – Crypto Market Cap, CoinGecko) According to CoinGlass, liquidations have hit a staggering $1.6 billion, wiping out a lot of traders. While trading volume still ranges between $164 billion and $190 billion,…

Overview: After rallying in the second half of last week, the dollar spent the last two sessions consolidating at lower levels. It has come back bid today amid light news. The greenback is 0.25%-0.50% firmer against the G10 currencies. The exception is the Australian dollar, which is holding on to small gains, inspired by the firmer CPI reading and a downgrading of the chances of a cut by the central bank not only next week but the following meeting in November, as well. The US dollar also enjoys a firmer bias against emerging market currencies. Japan returned from yesterday's holiday, and despite last week's announcement that the BOJ will begin selling its equity ETF ho…

A pan-European crypto scam worth over €100M ($118M) has been broken up, according to Eurojust. Fraudsters lured investors through subtle, nefarious platforms, rerouted their money to Lithuanian accounts, and vanished once withdrawals were requested. “The alleged mastermind is suspected of large-scale fraud and money laundering,” Eurojust said in its Sept. 22 announcement. My plan at the start of 2025 was to flee to Central Europe, what could go wrong? Apparently, this is one of the many things that could go wrong. The fraud had been active since at least 2018 and had spread to Germany, France, Italy, Spain, and beyond. Europe Crypto Scam: Who Was Involved in Taking It…
